re: Miles Set Up Jennings to Play Poorly
Posted by SuckThatTigerMD on 9/29/14 at 2:30 pm to DthVllyDud
Updated OP to reflect that I did not say Les Miles threw the Miss St game, just that he was not put in a position where he could play well. Clearly everyone took what I said out of context though
Miles Set Up Jennings to Play Poorly
Posted by SuckThatTigerMD on 9/29/14 at 2:08 pm
I'm saying it here. Miles set up Jennings to play poorly. Look at the stark difference between the offenses they have been running. Jennings has one receiver on many of his passes, he had no opportunity to throw the ball to an open man or make a read. Harris has had 2-4 receivers on each play in a primarily shotgun offense, allowing him to read the field and pass to the open man, or have a better chance of running it himself and gaining yards. The RBs and linemen and TEs all are much more successful in this type of offense as well, the blocking becomes better and running lanes open up.
Now I'll make this clear; I'm not arguing Jennings is a better QB, nor do I think he deserves to keep the starting role. However when we have seen Jennings run an offense similar to what Harris has run the past two games, he has been just as successful (Arkansas 2013, Wisconsin 2nd half). Harris deserves the starting role and is very talented and has been successful, however much more is going on here than one QB playing bad and one playing well.
That all being said, tell me why I'm wrong Rant, or maybe even tell me why I'm right
EDIT: edited to clarify that no, I don't think Miles threw the Miss St game, as so many of you interpreted my post as. I do however think Miles has placed Jennings in a position where he can't succeed, vs the offenses he has run where he has been successful. Harris has been allowed to run an offense he can be successful in. Point of the post was the poor play with Jennings at QB has less to do with him and more to do with the coaching decisions when he is in the game.

re: Does putting in a young quarterback ruin them?
Posted by SuckThatTigerMD on 9/29/14 at 1:59 pm to FourthQuarter
Depends on the player. If he doesn't have the Chest to come back from a tough game, then yes it ruins them. But I don't want that player as my QB anyway, I'd rather have a guy who can shake off a bad pass or bad game and improve from it. If BH turns out to be the type who can't do that like Jarrett Lee and Jordan Jefferson couldn't, fine, recruit new guys who can. But I believe this kid has the maturity and confidence to come back from a bad turn of events. He is the answer at QB that we've been waiting for. He has the mental framework of Flynn with the talent of much more

I didnt say they weren't terrible. But if we turned the ball over to them 4 times in the 1st quarter you know they'd be up on us. They still have talent NMSU can only dream of. Not the same talent as LSU or Bama, but good talent compared to rent-a-win schools
re: What are the OT's thoughts on fibromyalgia?
Posted by SuckThatTigerMD on 9/29/14 at 12:37 pm to GreatLakesTiger24
I'm not a believer and I think it is a cop-out diagnosis. Imo it's a way to please a concerned patient by telling them something is wrong. I know people who have complaints that fit these symptoms, everyone gets them from time to time. The symptoms are most likely caused by a lack of sleep. Studies have shown the symptoms occur in people not diagnosed with fibromyalgia when their sleep is interrupted. These conditions become chronic when sleep patterns become consistent with sleep interruptions becoming habitual.
The difference in diagnosis rates between sexes is related to the general differences in how each sex deals with their problems. Men will ignore the problem or deal with it internally, women tend to deal with it externally like talking to others (in this case a doctor) about it. I don't fault either side for doing it different ways bc that's how we are hard-wired.
Basically I think the problem would be solved if people took sleep more seriously and prepared for sleep in ways to promote healthy sleeping habits.
EDIT: and I don't want to fault anyone who has it, you aren't wrong to be concerned and the conditions do exist, but you are normal like everyone else and need healthy sleep for a healthy body and mind. No real condition exists that separates your experience from others, if it follows the general diagnosis of fibromyalgia. Of course consult a doctor if the symptoms are much more serious.

re: Is this the week we see LF7 blow up nationally?
Posted by SuckThatTigerMD on 9/29/14 at 12:16 pm to Geauxld Finger
Groundwork was laid Saturday for sure; explosive offense opened up the game for him, career high in carries and yards, multiple red zone chances as well.
I think he has a career game here against an overrated Auburn defense and the people making fun of him for the Heisman pose in week 2 take back their comments. Les committed to the most talented back last year (Jeremy Hill) despite having the horses he could have rode ala 2011 as a RBBC. I think Les puts the game in LFs hands this week and rides him to a win.

One of the worst, definitely. But these rent-a-wins are expected to be some of the worst, otherwise they wouldn't agree to being paid for an old fashioned arse whooping. Just like Vandy or Kentucky wouldn't agree to a one game series at Ohio State or Oregon, they'd require a home and home because they believe they are on equal footing to ask for that. Only bad football schools that need the money will agree to these rent-a-wins.
And the game we played in the 1st quarter would have had us down 14-0 at least instead of up 14-0 if we were playing a team with even a little respect. We would have made Vandy look like Bama if we did that against them. But we came out up two touchdowns and proceeded to steamroll them after, showing how bad they were. Look no further than the 1-yard punt if you want to see the mediocrity of their players. That was a clean punt that shanked for one yard. Most other teams would consider a 30 yard punt a shanked punt.

re: Should LSU have more day games?

You're an idiot. Everyone complains and doesn't show up for day games with excuses like "it's too hot" or "the sun is on me all game" or "it doesn't give us time to tailgate". LSU lobbied for more night games because night games in Death Valley are what fans have begged for for years. Last year there weren't enough night games and everyone complained. This year there are; now people show up and leave early instead of just not showing up. It's never going to get better unless the fan base changes their perspective of games. Deal with it or convince people to stay longer. Don't put the blame on other crap like night games or shitty opponents or advertisements or piped in music. This is about lazy spoiled fans.

Besides over-writing to state the point, I enjoyed Atlas Shrugged not only as a work of political philosophy but also as science fiction. You probably just remember it as the book you had to read for a class and you were mad it was long. The plot was creative and worked together with the agenda of the novel to create a real believable example of the points being made, every step of the way. You just have to look at it as a whole to see how good it is.

If he normally lives in BR, send him somewhere he hasn't been before. You don't want him tempted to leave or have friends or drug dealers bring him drugs. Being in a new place forces him to keep up with the rehab program. The same thing goes for post-rehab, and it's even more important then to reduce chances of relapse
