Well .. I"m going to have to take your word for it, as I can't seem to find a replay of the play anywhere. ...at least not for free. I just remember some sports dude noting that the defense was showing man, then morphed to a zone mid play. At anyrate ... misreads happen.
Yup .. I saw that too. Palmer emphasized that LSU could go to the :crystal: with Lee as the starter. That's got to make the little fellow feel a little better about himself.
We all know Lee's attributes: strong arm, smart kid, stays calm, great competetor,good game manager. We all know his minuses: jumpy in the pocket, stares down WR he is going to throw to, throws too often off of back foot (whether pressured or no), poor pocket presence. Given the plusses and minuses, Lee is having a very solid year and as Tiger fans, he is probably out performing expectations (I thought we'd see Mett by the Miss St. game as the starter, having both Lee and Jefferson on the team). It is too difficult to complain about Lee right now. By the way, does anyone else like our Offense when we roll Lee out of the pocket and when we run Lee in an up tempo type offense? I think he does pretty well with the up tempo, when he has less time to think and maybe relies more off of reactions and instincts. I think we have the athletes, and QB, to mix in some up tempo/change of pace to move the ball down the field.
I actually like that the pre-snap has slowed down and allowed all of our guys Lee included to look over the defense. It gives them a chance to reconize what is going on. Our last offense wasn't even set until we had 5-7 left on the play clock. As we all know that did not work well. The offense seems to be in control more and dictates the play. I think this helps Lee.
