I'm not diminishing anything. He did what he was asked to do against bamas huge, but slow front 7. Great job, it was a favorable matchup, kudos to him and the staff

Sorry you don't understand specific matchups, I'll explain football to you later perhaps.

Both QBs and the offense as a whole improved this year. Most of that credit should go to Stud/Krags

How many points has JL averaged allowing defenses over his career? Wouldn't it be fair to factor that in?

Please do. Ford was more effective than ware against Bama because his specific skill set matched up better against that D. Therefore Ford should be on the bench the rest of the year.

Correct. See, you're getting it

Incorrect. Ford has proven himself several times already this season against multiple defenses and has outperformed ware on more than 1 occasion. And you need multiple RBs

Therefore, LSU has played 2 other teams of championship caliber, and in both of those games Lee was below average. Why would any LSU fan feel overly confident in Lee going forward against Arky, UGA and BCS Title game? It boggles my mind.

That was the first game of the season. Claiborne was awful in his first game last year against UNC.

Clearly the Oregon game isn't indicative of how he has performed over the course of the entire season, he has improved tremendously

If we played Oregon today, I would have the utmost confidence in lee and the offense to hang 40+ on them, no question.

To be honest, Ole Miss doesn't matter, I like Lee vs Arky, JJ vs UGA, and BCSCG is TBD. I don't understand the folks who think that JL should be a LOCK as a starter.

What about Kentucky?

Lee has performed poorly in 3 out of 9 games. And you dont want JJ to help us win games.

Yea, he regressed against the best D in the country, big deal. Weeden or Luck would look foolish against them too

But we aren't playing them again and we aren't playing in the first game of the year again

JL fans give JL too much credit and JJ no credit and it will never change.

Sure, that's fair. As long as you factor in turnovers for both QBs. And, don't forget to factor in # of fumbles, fumbles lost and sacks. Because fumbles (even if recovered) are wasted play, just like sacks. Let's see those stats:

JJ
INT 18
Fumbles 16
Fumbles lost 3
TOTAL TURNOVERS 21 (with 13 recovered fumbles)
Sacks 65

Lee
INT 21
Fumbles 6
Fumbles lost 0
TOTAL TURNOVERS 21 (with 6 recovered fumbles)
Sacks 21

So, that means that Jefferson had the potential to turn the ball over 34 times to Lee's 27. I guess he doesn't really take care of the ball better.

And, that's not even factoring in that Lee being less mobile has caused him to get sacked 44 less times than Jefferson.

I didn't say this. I said he had a role in that basketball analogy

Should he get anywhere near the snaps of lee? Oh no. Does he have a role? Of course

Hold on....total number of plays for both?

What is even more amazing is JJ has rushed for 11tds and almost 1,000yds while JL has lost 180 yds and no rush tds.
