I don't disagree with that. Before Bama we had a stud O-line though. What happened to our vaunted o-line? Well, Bama was the first team this year able to make Harris beat them by stopping the run. If a team is able to completely focus on stopping the run the o-line doesn't have a chance. Its takes a qb capable of keeping things honest and hitting the short routes etc. I'm not saying the o-line doesn't suck now but I believe the above is exposing them big time.

Harris simply is not the answer
so lee, jefferson, mett minus 1 year, jennings, & now harris is not the answer , are you people that dumb?

He can't read a defense and has trouble going thru his progression when his primary receiver is covered. He holds the ball far too long and simply refuses to throw the ball away when he should so he takes unnecessary sacks.

Harris also has virtually no touch on the ball and cant throw short routes to even STATIONARY RECEIVERS. We can talk all we want about other aspects of the game but when the LSU offense can't move the ball it puts more and more pressure on a LSU defense which has depth issues at DL and LB. I personally don't see any improvement at QB coming with Harris
this is 100% coaching

It all starts with the line - both sides of the ball.

It's still the Coaches fault. How long are we willing to continue to let Les keep saying wait till next year?

Neither Harris or Jennings are the answer for our system. It was incredibly stupid to recruit either one of them.

Can we all agree that our Coach and our quarterbacks suck? Our quarterbacks don't suck because of the coaches, they just suck. The coaches suck for recruiting the qb's that suck year after year after year.

Look. The way you have to beat teams who are taking away the run is to be able to hit short passes and do it quickly. Harris obviously doesn't know where his "hot' receivers are because he looks lost under any kind of pressure. He also has severe accuracy issues which play into a defenses hands. When all a defense does is force you to pass and you are as inaccurate and clueless about where your receivers are (other than the primary receiver) then it will be what you witnessed last night.

Defenses are no going to stop selling out until Brandon Harris can effectively and consistently burn them. That REQUIRES a quick release and accuracy in the SHORT passing game. Harris as yet has failed this part of the game in grand fashion. I hope he can get it together but his lack of ability to throw the short to intermediate pass is killing LSU right now. The only way teams are going to back off the pressure on the OL and Harris is to make them pay. Harris had numerous opportunities to do this last night but obviously doesn't understand the offense well enough to get rid of the ball to his short receivers. He is struggling and he has to be the one to make the offense go with HIS decisions. That is what a QB is supposed to do. If the coaches could just script the game out and account for all variables then every play would be a TD and you would only need a fricking robot to play QB. Unfortunately, we need cognitive decisions at the QB position and are not getting it. It is not the only problem with
this team but it is a major one.

So wrong. He is running a high school offense led by a outdated idiot of a head coach.

The problem is Harris isn't running any kind of offense. He isn't capable. I'm ready for Miles to go but can you not see he can't even make the easy throws? He is highly inaccurate and lost. Last night was horrendous.

We most certainly do. I know your shtick is too act like you understand football but you dont. Your initial statement was dumb as frick. Our offense does use the whole field. There are more than enough actual complaints about our offense without you making dumb shite up.

we don't do "hot" receivers and we don't work on short passing

why do you think harris will be good at something we don't implement, practice, or use in games?

Yes. LSU is running a much "dumbed down"offense in the passing game particularly than wwhat these same coaches ran with Mettenberger at QB. The problem is that Harris can't even run this vanilla shite effectively and some of you "geniuses" think that a more sophisticated offense is what Harris needs?

If you can't see the obvious limitations of Harris then you are kidding yourself or just don't understand the part of the game which Harris is failing at right now. Yes, Miles and Cam recruited these QBs but that doesn't change their ability or lack of. I didn't recruit any of them but that doesn't mean I can't see what is wrong. Everything I have postedabout the QB problems is true and if you don't agree that's fine.
