Wait was that when he threw that big TD pass? Oh wait. . . The answer is simple, who did Miles give the game ball to?
What do you have a hard on about ? you watched the game and think that we win the game with out the solid QB play of JJ in that game. He made the plays needed after the awful play by #7 to get us into field postion needed to force Bama to play for OT JJ did a good job and JL was sorry -- it's that easy My hope is that JL like I saw at the end of the 4th last night will man up and do what is needed to help this team when called on
Solid QB play entails actually putting the ball in the endzone. What JJ did against Bama was not turn the ball over. There's a big difference between limiting mistakes and winning the game for the team. I'm certain that there is at least one QB on the team that could have gotten the ball in the endzone against Bama. JJ didn't play better than Lee against Bama, he simply wasn't put in a position to risk turning the ball over. Had LSU been down by 7 I can promise you Miles would have put Lee in the game. Just look at last year x3. JJ has always been the "safe" QB nothing more. Part of the reason the game was so close was both these teams were juggernauts and part was bad play calling by BOTH teams.
What qb in their right mind would want to play for clm. If I were a stud qb and were being recruited by dozens of big time programs I wouldn't play for miles. I wouldn't play for a coach that will bench me if I have a screw up and bench me if I play great. I wouldn't play for a coach that would play a two qb system even if I were playing well. I would want to play. I hate to say it but that's an honest statement.
I understand that. But I'm saying if it were ME and I had the ability of say Andrew luck would I risk playing time with a coach that has a history of playing a two qb system or would I play where I get the chance to put up the most yards and other stats as possible. I'm taking off the lsu blinders and thinking of setting myself up for the NFL.
I would choose a team that had a history of winning, a coach that sticks with his qb, and a team with a senior qb where I can get in as the starter asap. It would be about playing time to showcase myself for a future NFL career and payday.
I guess the point would be that if Drew can have those moments JJ can have a moment in the endzone ! JL didn't have a moment he seemed to go into the egg at Bama and I think that is what CLM saw. I would love to be talking about how JL won the game at Bamaland but if we don't win the game in Bama the season is dead right now and Bama will be playing OSU. I hope JL is the hero of the Hog game - I really don't care what QB does what they should do but not doing something and have the other guy do something is cool with me. CLM is the wizard and you guys are gargoyles
Neither of our QB's are great. It looked, to me, like Les was playing JJ and letting him air it out to get some valuable practice at throwing going into the home stretch. I don't think we've seen the last of Lee. He was in the doghouse apparently. I'm thinking Spencer Ware in still in the doghouse, too, if you look at how few carries he had last night. We don't know what goes on in practice, and we're not going to know. We should all realize that by now. We should also realize that Les Miles is the best coach that LSU has ever had. Why we must insist on stepping to the edge of the ledge over his coaching decisions--when we're freakin' 10-0, no less, is amazing to me. Chillax, folks.
