re: QB’s First Start Stats Comparison

Finley looked good in his game against SC and no one can really argue that. It’s in all the games AFTERWARDS where he’s looked shoddy. And games where when we put max in, he looks significantly better (ie A&M and Bama)

bullshite. From your post, you are the biggest racist on this board. Unless of course, you are one of those people that think if you are racist against white people it's not really racism
Standard response of a racist is to call those against racism racists. So in your mind me confronting racism is being racist against white people? Again that is the worldview of a racist.
Some guy earlier suggested that people review my posts. Well do so and find one instance of my racism against white people. Find one instance of me putting down a white player. Find one instance of me not supporting all players at LSU.
You will only find me calling out obvious racism. And unfortunately, that pisses off a lot of people in this fan base. However, a vast majority of the LSU football team is African Americans and they deserve support that is not based on race. They deserve respect for their sacrifices and their lives. What was done to TJ Finley on here on Saturday was despicable.

The OP does have a point. People are quick to forget how good Finley looked in that USC game. shite, there were countless threads on here calling for Finley to start over Brennan even if Brennan got healthy.
Of course, the next few games showed that Finley is, indeed, still a true freshmen trying to figure things out.
Nevertheless, LSU fans's amnesia kicks in and we get the barage of "Max is the future" threads after the UF game.
Don't mistake this post as one belittling Max's performance against UF. It was a great performance by a true freshmen on the road against one of the toughest teams on our schedule and without most of our playmakers. This post is simply pointing out that it's his first start and we have a very small sample size (just as we did with Finley after the USC game).

I don’t remember exactly how many drops we had in the FLA game. But a few drops were balls that were spot on and had no legit reason to be incompletions. I’m sure some would use the fog as an excuse, but as shown on tv, the fog wasn’t very dense down there on the field, and if I remember right Max even kept the balls low for that reason when he could.
Anyways, not bashing the receivers or running backs but take those few really bad drops away and Johnson’s stats tell a better story of his actual performance which I thought was stellar given the circumstances.
He missed some better reads, and made other freshman mistakes but he played a dam good game and kept his “head on the task at hand”.
It was also nice to see his interaction with the team in some of those locker room videos from after the game. He seems to be a real team player and seems to have some legit leadership attributes.
Futures bright
I do not disagree with anything you said. However I would have disagreed if you chose to demonize TJ Finley. I am capable of supporting both and Myles Brennan as well. I consider neither to be the enemy.

What is the point here?
TJ had a great first start, so did Max. Even Brennan’s first start we good.
So what?? Are you arguing that TJ should be the starter based on one single game?
I’m honestly not sure what your point here is.

Yes I probably am that guy. And I do have an agenda. And it is anti-racism. And that agenda only angers racists. So be it. And I have support for ALL of the LSU players, white or black
So you think TJ lost the starting spot because of race and not his performance after that first start you seem so infatuated with?

It just seems an odd thang to focus on, their fist start.
Literally no one thought Finley had anything but a great first start.
Why don’t you compare subsequent game stats? Or does that just completely torpedo the stupid point you seem to be trying to make.

we have some retarded fans. This week MJ has been getting the "he is the real deal" praise. why can't our fans just let these freshmen develop before anointing them our next messiah.
I was high on TJ, still am, after the USC game but I was absolutely shocked Muschamp didn't blitz him...also we ran the ball great. I knew it wouldn't be the case at Auburn.

Cool...Now do last start.

I can't disagree that Finley struggled against two of the top defensive teams that put major pressure on him, along with the offensive line's poor performance. And you certainly are not comparing garbage time against teams that had their backups in a game already won. When Johnson has been under extreme pressure he has not performed well either.
I'm not saying which QB will end up being the best starter for LSU. I just haven't thrown either in the garbage bin, nor demonized either like has been done to Finley. I fully support each of them. I say let it play out. May the best man win. Let Johnson start the Mississippi game and see how he performs. I agreed he should have started the aTm game. Then you will have a fairer comparison based on more input.

Comparing either to UF is silly.

Theyve played against the same opponents in the same games. MJ doesnt turn the ball over. Has a higher completion percentage, has better touch, and is more mobile. He manages the game much better at this point.
TJ has a live arm. But he throws everything at an 11 which causes him to sail balls, spike short throws, and overthrow long balls. It turns his arm-strength into a weakness. And its the main thing he had over Max.

I am not arguing that either of the QBs should be the starter. As for you being not sure what my point is, have you not noticed the different treatment TJ has received on here? It started even when he was a recruit.
Did you visit the Score Board Saturday and see the discussions about TJ? Or the many naysayers after his first start who refused to give him any credit whatsoever for his great game?

Which is a meaningless snapshot in time. Had Finley maintained the level at which he played in that first game, he’d still be the starter. He digressed, though, and he was replaced. That’s the way it works, man.

I don't have a list 1-3. And that is the point there is insufficient data at this time. Johnson has started only one game. So the only fair comparison would be each after one game.
If I had to make a list right now, going into next year it would be:
1. Brennan (He was progressing well before his injury. He has more experience in the program)
2. Finley/Johnson (Not enough data to determine. Johnson's start at Mississippi will provide more data to consider. His one start should carry no more weight than Finley's one start. Finley won the competition against Johnson for the start on 3 separate occasions. Johnson performed well for his only start. Would he have done as well against Bama and aTm? Nobody knows)
However it would be an open competition. The best man wins.
