re: Jarrett Lee and his change in starting status... not the same BS about QBs

If I had a vote, Lee would definitely be the MVP of this season. That is just IMHO.

I would say either QB would be somewhere below 5th in team MVP voting...maybe lower.

There may well come a time in the next two games where we need JL

This isn't last year. I can say without a doubt Miles is thinking we either win or lose with JJ. (Barring injury) if JJ is having a bad game I doubt JL comes in to save him. Jmo.

I wouldnt say 5th.. but if we win out and JJ continues like he has since he has been starter the qb positon should be considered the mvp with JL and JJ sharing the honor.

JJ does seem to be a bit tougher

I'm no JJ fan, but you're right about that, he is a tough MFer. He has taken some licks over the years, but the guy pops right back up and gets back in there.

Thats at shame because Lee played very well and LSU won the games with him at QB by double digits.Those games were not against shitty teams . My point is Lee had one game where he struggled and was punished from his starting position. If you watch the arkansas game JJ looked like he struggled the first half but was left in the game to recover and get his shite together.His QB position was never threatened by Lee coming into the game. All this shite about the game still could have been lost if Lee came in is bullshite. Lee is a senior QB and is very capable of playing good enough to beat Arkansas. Lee should have gotten a chance to have real playing time in his last game in tiger stadium

I personally don't get into the QB "controversy" much but do have some thoughts on it. Jefferson was the starter then, the bottom fell out. JL stepped up and did a tremendous job against the opponents he faced. For that, I'm sure Miles and the team is grateful and most fans certainly should be. The kid ain't a quitter, stayed the course and did the job. The reality is though, that Miles is obligated to put his best chance of winning on the field and sometimes, this may not seem "fair". In some matchups, Jefferson brings another dimension to the offense and presents additional problems for defenses to cover. I think about it this way...it's nice to have the option of 2 capable QB's, just think of how many teams have one no better than either of them. I trust Miles to put the man on the field that gives LSU the best chance for a win. Would he like to be able to play them equally? I couldn't say but I suspect he might. Will Lee see much playing time in the NC game? I don't think so based on the Bama game, his style does not match up with their defense as well a what Jefferson brings. Regardless of playing time from here on, I'm betting Lee is the same classy act he's been throughout and will be cheering as loudly as anyone else if LSU wins. He will know and be acknowledged as an important part of the machine that put them in this position. Without him, could not have happened.

Can we just blame the last 3 years of Bad quarterback play on Gary crowton and be done with it. I don't care who taking snaps this year....All LSU do is win win win.

Accept I don't want to except it. Jordan Jefferson runs really well and can throw the ball well accept when he has to check down. Except. Accept.

JL is a better passer.....it's the ONLY thing he's better at.

JJ brings all of the other intagibles needed to win at this level.....and he is the better QB

end of story

We have to totally trust CLM with whatever decision he makes.. but I doubt trying to protect JL's mindset has anything to do with it! JL has shown his mental toughness...
