comparing stats is irrelevant and stupid

I think JOJO could have MADE a play on the ball. We've all seen the WRs at TT and OState go after the ball. Why cant ours? Every wr on the field for TexTec goes AFTER the Ball. I agree the JL makes bad throws.But our WRs should be more agressive.

Stafford played his true frosh and soph year with absolutely no talent to throw to. Stafford isn't a very good college QB, he is hyped because of his arm strength. He has never impressed me as a college QB.

You must think the LSU defense has played worse than I do.

Put Stafford stats up against elite SEC qb's and he doesn't measure up .

an INT is an INT. why is a pick 6 looked down upon so much more than a regular interception? I'm not understanding the relevance here. Does that mean Georgia's offense could tackle better?

Could someone explain this to me?

he wont be as good as stafford. stafford was a true freshman, lee is not. according to all you (who i believe in this facet), lsu is stacked all around him this year. uga was not stacked around stafford his freshman year. lee doesnt have the arm or true ability stafford does.

I agree that UGA didn't have the WR talent LSU does, but Lee, physically, is EVERY bit as gifted as Stafford. In fact, his arm is stronger. Stafford won't do shite in the pros. He's just a vanilla QB and Green should be credited with making him look much better than he actually is.

An INT is an INT. when it goes for six, don't blame the QB, blame the other backs and linemen standing around and not try to stop the guy that picked it off.

you can go stats all you want- it is the returns for TDs that are the problem- we have a struggle on defense and this guy costs us 7 pts every game- do you realize every game except Miss St- he has ints returned for TD- every GD game- come on

no

Yes, and his deep balls are proof, especially the throw he made in the Auburn game. Let's see Stafford make that throw off of his back foot while getting tackled. And yes, Stafford will be YET ANOTHER overrated UGA QB in the pros.

Lee's just a head case now. HOPEFULLY, he will improve, but it's certainly not a given. Jamie Howard and Josh Booty sucked the whole time they were here.

No. When you telegraph passes like the swing passes against AU and UGA, that's certainly not the rest of the offense's fault. Others are, but it certainly isn't the offenses fault that he keeps throwing ducks to the other team.

Tulane brought one back, for frick's sake.

Remember Dameyne Craig at Auburn. That guy was awful but he had a great senior year!


Another Aubie, Jason Campbell - took over two seasons with the reins before he really became a good QB in our conference, and now is a pretty good pro starter.

I'm not satisfied with the decision making of Lee, yet. However, the problems are not all of his fault, and the flashes he has shown during some series and even whole quarters, are worth continuing to develop him.

Pretty damn good one to find, though, seeing that Stafford is a QB in this same conference in the same exact mold as Lee in a similiar situation talent-wise as Lee in a similiar situation as far as talent surrounding him as Lee with the same skills and body build and arm strength and same pro potential and same physical attributes. Just sayin.....

at least Stafford will make an attempt to run. Lee is Drew Bledsoe at age 45.

Lee ending up on Staffords senior level pretty much amounts to one BCS win over an overrated mid major.
