People are beginning to notice. thats my only point. Do i care? no. as long as we're winning.
My fear is that with JJ starting more drives, we might not be scoring as much as we could with Lee starting more dirves.
That might cost us a game. Its arguable that we almost lost the Florida game for that reason.
What if Lee started one more drive and it would have scored a TD? What if it was drive where JJ threw a pick? Thats a 14 point swing that could have made the game tough for Florida.
Its hard to imagine what might have been, but every time JJ walks out and starts a drive that ends in a punt or INT, that could be a drive Lee gets us points.

If they switched the ratios and had JJ in half as many times as Lee then Im fine with that. Makes no sense to have the SEC leader in Ints that has also fumbled a few times this year as your ball control QB and the guy playing lights out only in use when you need a score.

Trying to think of a decent analogy.
How about the guy that eats fast food every day and says, "Haven't had a heart attack yet, it must be good for me."
Nah, that's not very good.

Lets not forget that the Florida safety pretty much dropped the 2nd Int that JJ tried to throw on the deep ball to Randle late in the game

How can they execute the same thing as JJ without any threat to throw the ball??

I expect this will ultimately be the case.

You know, the coaches could...gasp....let Ware or Shepard actually throw the ball like once per game.

You do realize that these are all 5 star athletes that played high school QB? You do realize that they were all the #1 PLAYER out of their state? You do realize that almost every athlete (watch PP7 in warmups it's insane) can throw the ball 20-30 yards?
I don't understand how this is hard. If you're going to run the zone-read offense (which we do with Jefferson), it doesn't take that good of an arm to execute. Darren McFadden was even effective and he doesn't have near the arm that those three do.

JJ is a threat to throw?
Like I've said before, how many times did McFadden throw? Ronnie Brown? Ingram/Richardson? A well-executed Wildcat is effective not because of the passing threat.

None of that matters if they'll never throw a pass in an SEC game. I just don't think the LSU coaching staff would get gimicky enough and risk those guys throwing the ball. So if they lined up at QB, it would 100% be a run.

Did you forget about the rushing TDs one QB has contributed?
Is there a reason a RB could also not score from 2 yards out?
Of course he got the play wrong on one of those TDs and just got lucky too.

heres my question: why start JJ? what does he do better than jlee that warrants even equal snaps? besides handing off...
and these people saying "we are winning"-- they are stupid. lee does a much better job scoring points and leading drives. with this system, we are barely getting by- with lee playing the entire time, we can have JJ play the 4th quarter of our blowout win

Agree with you 100% on this Bobby.
We are keeping these games closer than they other wise should be.

Agree. But when has that ever been a part of our offensive scheme? I'm not saying it shouldn't be. I'd like to see Shep or some others get a shot at it. But to say Shep in the Wildcat is the same as JJ back there is just stupid. Completely different offensive look and set of options for the defense to consider.
