re: JJ or Lee ext year

i disagree. especially if our other QBs dont' progress as much as expected.

Did Stafford have WR's with the hands and attitude issues between Byrd and Lafell?

Our WR's have dropped more balls than Ron Jeremy this year. Really liking what I see from Tolliver though.

Dickson has dropped plenty of balls he should be thrown in this post. I can't see what you like in tolliver he hasn't made an impact all year. Just sayin.

if hatch didnt start this year with as poor as Lee was playing i just dont see him playing at all next year wiith Lee and JJ having a year under thier belt and shep learning the offense

---

that's because you just don't remember that Hatch has been hurt

Lee will be our starting QB next season.

I'm willing to bet my posting privelages on it that he's not.

lee is one dimensional.

I don't remember Marino, Wueffel, Aikman, or even Hodson being great runners. Are you saying a pocket passer can't get it done?

To be sure, Lee is not one of those guys yet. That's not the point of the post.

It will be an open competition. I think its obvious to anyone who isn't drinking some of the les miles kool-aid JJ looks better back there. Lee obvisouly knows the offense better so that will work to his advantage. Hatch just doesn't have the skills. He and lee may know the play book but what good does it do if you can't execute it. Throw Sheppard in the mix and it should be interesting.

yes. if smarter meant doing nothing. very productive

No...smarter means throwing it away rather than throwing it into triple coverage when there's nothing there. It means taking a sack if there's nothing there and the ball can't be thrown away safely. It's about taking what available and living to see another down.

Both of those things Jefferson did with more accumen than Lee has shown thus far this season. This is a separate issue as to how much of Crowton;s play book is available to the offense with JJ under center. The issue you commented on was playing smarter...and he did.

Now...part of that may be because Jefferson has simply played more QB in his lifetime than Lee. Everyone keeps forgetting the whole "Lee only played two years of QB in HS football" stuff. While Jefferson may not be as familiar with Crowton's offense yet, he clearly didn't look lost under center.

if jefferson plays well on friday i think he'll overtake lee by the season opener

Russel Shepard will ride the pine next year just like Terrel Pryor did this year at aOSU.
