re: Tigerbait's Bryan Lazare Said Coaches Don't Have Confidence in Lee

They're only allowing Lee one pass per four or five handoffs.

It may be less confidence in the fans reaction if Lee makes a mistake. Or it could just be not much confidence in Lee.

Pick one.

If they don't have confidence in Lee, then why in the hell would you put him in the game last week late in the fourth up by 4 points deep in your own territory?

---

it was 6 points, but still, a pick-6 (which he is known for) potentially loses the game.

and he called a pass to the flats (i swear they wre almost setting up a pick-6, or seeing if he still made the mistakes throwing that pass, which he didn't)

It's called idiots that have never played a sport in their life and consider fantasy football a sport. They have no life like those Bama fans they often criticize for making football the end-all be-all.

The amount of idiot fans surrounding LSU's program grows annually. Now, the small number of idiots are getting their own segments on sports shows around the nation.

Just a thought when there was reports during spring training that Lee was doing better or at the spring game when Lee out performed JJ all that was constantly talked about was Lee's pick 6s. Also, after the spring game miles would never give out individual qb stats he would always combine them. I think this could be because he is afraid to put Lee in after the 2008 and limited play time of 2009 season. If he admits or shows that Lee has been doing better than JJ it will make him look bad that he has stuck with JJ.

I could be wrong Lee could be playing worse than JJ, but at the end of the day I want our best opportunity out there on the field. Whether it's JJ or Lee I'm pulling for both I think they both have the potential to be great at LSU.

Just give Lee a shot if it doesn't work then we need to move RS back at qb to do the running and have JJ do the passing.

When I hear the Boo birds I just can't stop myself from laughing at this dripping irony.

How does no one remember JL and the amount of pic 6's he has thrown. Obviously JJ isn't doing the job but the first half of last game there were 55 yds of penalties on 1st down throws by JJ. It still doesn't make him a good qb but still it showed a glimmer of hope in the kid. Just one game/week I would like to see the fans truley support the kid and find out if it improves his confidence and gives him some swagger.

Look, I love all of our tigers and I applaud Jefferson for giving it his all. He's just not producing on the field. At every other position, if someone is struggling you give somebody else a shot. Why not at QB? Jarrett Lee deserved to be pulled 2 years ago and Jefferson deserved a shot. He has had his shot for a year and a half now and what do we have? One of the worst offenses in the country. How do we know Lee hasn't improved or matured on the field in the last 2 years when we never get to see him in a game? Give him his shot and if we still have the worst offense in America, then try something different. But doing the same thing over and over for a year and a half with the same results is the definition of insanity. And it's Miles, not the players.

BUT if Lee comes in and stinks it up, taking playing time away from JJ and making it evident we will not go with him in the future, then we are left with a

if a year and a half of PT hasn't gotten him ready for UF, a half against Tenn surely won't. and he will be struggling and unconfident regardless if lee plays or not.

Vut? Zair iz und Quarterback controversy?



Seriously though, I've thought many, many times that our backups must suck hard. The alternative, which is also highly Bavarian-like, is that Miles is a stubborn SOB.
