When their opinion is based on falsehood, is it still an opinion?
Basically all of their bitchpoints (new word), have been debunked. Yet they then make their determinations based on their own falsehoods.
what is your opinion? Why does your opinion hold more weight? Just curious, who do you think will start game one and why.

Let me ask you this, which QB do you expect to start game one?
I have no idea. I have no idea how Mett will progress, how Lee will do, if JJ will perform better.
I can tell you this, IF the choices at the END of the fall camp are 3 inaccurate mistake prone QBs, I take the one that can run.
I fully expect the best QB to run the team. I dont know who that is.
IF we were naming a starter off of ONE week of Spring practice, I would say that either senior is WAAAYYYY ahead of any first year player. The fact that the head coach said that is not damning, it is the truth.
Anyone basing anything off of that statement (the point of this thread) is off their rocker or so anti-Miles that reasoning is pointless.

Les Miles has already alluded to the fact he likes JJ's ability to run. My guess based on this is that JJ wills tart the season at QB regardless of how Mettenbergers passing has come along.

That JJ will probably start? I don't think so. I would put money on JJ starting game one simply based on what Miles has stated .

Your "regardless of how Mett comes along" is the part I do not understand, do you really feel that if Mett absolutely plays lights out, JJ starts. Do you not believe that a whole lot can transpire between now and September?
And if you believe Miles has already made up his mind based on his quote, you have very little faith in the man.
Keep in mind, as previously posted in this thread, JJ had to beat out JL...by most accounts an entirely different story than Mettenberger.

No, what is disturbing is that Peterson, a guy who's heart should have been questioned in multiple situations last year, feels like he has the right to make these kinds of statements.
Zing!

Simply because all things being equal, (if they ever are) Miles seems to really like JJ's ability to run.

Absolutely 100%. I believe Mett could complete every pass from now until Oregon and JJ would still start. JJ is starting against Oregon, PERIOD.

I probably won't really have an opinion until after the spring game, but I would be surprised if it weren't JJ. I base this on how much experience matters in big games. Mett has never seen the field in an SEC game, so you don't know if he'll come out calm or jittery. As an example, consider Rohan Davey in his first big start vs. Auburn compared to later in his career vs. Bama or Illinois.
But I could be totally wrong, as I don't see practice every day. I fully expected Ford to come out of fall camp as the starter last year, but I was wrong...and I don't blame being wrong on seniority, BBQ buddies, dog houses, agendas, etc. I just had a hunch and I was wrong.

Ah...but Oregon isn't in the SEC.
I base my JJ prediction on the fact that seniority always wins out in the season opener. Everyone in this thread that disputes seniority over talent uses Jai Eugene as an example. Jai started one game last year...UNC.

I think Miles uses the word "experience" instead of seniority, but yeah, it seems to pull at least a little weight with him.
I just think all other things being equal, JJ will start. It's his to lose. I think he could lose the job but not before opening day. Miles likes his experience plus his versatility it appears.

But things would not be equal. Mett would have progressed. Are you indicating he will not progress past one week of Spring ball?

2 different things...seniority is just being around longer, solid experience is clearly a key factor in determining success.

Not at all. Just saying if JJ is serviceable throwing the ball, his ability to run will sway Miles IMO. In other words, JJ is going to have to lose his job unless he just falls apart because Miles likes his legs.
Of course it's opinion but just taking cues from Les Miles, JJ will start.
Posted on 3/28/11 at 10:10 pm to RogerTheShrubber
Well, we have till September to settle this thing. Not really, then it really cranks up.

As long as they're winning, I don't care who it is.
Les is gambling either way.
Trust him for once. He's right more than he's wrong about how to get W's.

What experience did Cam Newton have before this year? Not saying Mett=Cam, I'm saying their paths are very similar.

This thread has reached its nadir. Comparing Jefferson with Cam is insanity at its highest!
