thats the case every year.. LSU could have been a 5 loss team in 2007 with close wins over Bama, Florida and Auburn.. what if Wilson doesnt fumble? or Florida stops a 4th down play? or the pass to Byrd is incomplete(and the FG is missed)?

and for every team.. Alabama could have been a 4 loss team this year..

I was trying to have a discussion about JJ...not Les.

Probably wouldn't change my opinion of JJ. But it would probably change a lot of Georgia fans' opinion of that SEC officiating crew.

What about 2 losses?...could have just as easily gone that way.


But for stupid play calls and horrible clock management, yes.

As opposed to JJ being the next coming of elway...with his elongated throwing motion and inability to throw accurately to any moving targets...


JJ completed over 62% of his passes (which was 2nd among all SEC QBS) on the year with NO running game. The QB's job is to put the ball where the WR can reach it. If the WR can put two hands on the ball they should catch it, no matter where the ball is especially at that level. Did he make some bad throws? hell yeah he did but so did every single QB in America last year.

Problem is not the QB, its the o-line. They get the o-line fixed and we will be ok

I don't recall many pass plays where JJ wasn't almost getting sacked, except the ones where he was sacked. I thought he did a good job considering the constant diress.

Granted the o line wasnt the best but how many hot reads did JJ connect on last year. Wait that was Gary and Lesters fault too.If it wasnt for the defence scoring points we would of had 2 more losses last year so hats of to the Chief and staff on that turn around.

Exactly 37%(hot read %) or 27 completions. 62% total completions which was second in SEC as a first year starter in an abysmal offense that finished with top 3 RB on IR, a sub par OL,lots of drop passes and hoards of rantards like you talking shite you dont have a clue about against a 19 yr old kid.
