I saw dropped passes,I also saw him over throw a few receivers, I want Mett to play we have a chance at a championship and 94 yards passing won't win it.

I got blown up for suggesting this last year but I believe its because Lee is white and Jefferson is black.

Has nothing to do with race, when he plays he cares more about himself and his stats than winning or doing something greater for the team. With JJ it's all about him, with Lee it's all about the team. Being confident is one thing, but JJ is just way too cocky for somebody who hasn't done much to prove himself. He sells his team mates out to make himself look better, he almost never takes blame for his mistakes, even the blatant ones, instead he blames others.

You deserved to be because it is bullshite thinking. I guarentee you that Tyler and Rohan were more popular than Howard and Booty. It's about making plays and that is all.

Because we are all a bunch of racist. How about because some of want a QB who is going to throw the ball downfield. Yes he will throw as more ints than JJ and twice as many TD's. Maybe we want a QB who when he plays poorly will say, you know I didn't have my best game. Get off this stupid implied race crap, I think most people here wanted JR over MF and everyone wanted Rohan over Booty. Get out of here with that crap.

Go back to 2008 and you have your answer.

It is all about wanting a change when the starter sucks.

In 08 EVERYONE bitched about Lee and wanted JJ.


Often the backup QB is the most popular player on the team.

Other than the fact that anyone who prefers Lee is a racist (and probably voted for McCain too)?

Well it might be that JJ hasn't been able to get past his first read in three years of play. So what is left?

He can hand off. So can Lee.
He can run. Lee can't but that is what RBs are for.

Hmmm, seems to me Lee has more upside than JJ does (someone else also said this).

Complete fabrication - first you couldn't possibly know this. Secondly, I guess JJ sacrificing his body on those sweeps is him being selfish.

Link? Do you just invent these personalities in your head and then trot them out as the truth???

Best QB performance of the last three years ring a bell?. Don't retreat back into that "babe in the woods" routine.

You've been a pretty honest broker throughout a lot of this.

You're joking right? How many times do you think Lee got off his first read last night?

He's a senior who was lazy and fat for most of his career - where are you going to find fricking upside???

I don't think it has much to with race. A lot of LSU fans are just really, really stupid.

What I noticed right off was the lack of blank stares, and standing at the line of scrimmage in a state of confusion while the play clock ticked down to zero for a delay of game penalty.
I don't know if JJ or Crowton was to blame for this, but it didn't happen last night!

Last night all they asked Lee to do was to manage the game and not mess up. That's what he did and we put up a lot of points. Our offense did not win the game for us by any means but Lee gave the ball away fine and I saw him actually help the running backs a lot. He did exactly what was asked of him. I was in no way scared to watch him play like I've been in the past. Our offense only needs a Lee-caliber QB right now, and if he's really improving we may see some outstanding plays this year. I'm expecting some great TD passes next Sat. from him.

IMO both qbs are close to the same ability. JJ just gives us a better runner and more options. I pull for who is the QB unlike many morons on here who are always whining for the guy that's on the bench.
