did anyone else notice that Lee looked to be trying a little too hard to appear calm in the 1st half??
Props to Lee for hanging in there. Man. That boy's got a big brass set to come back from such a horrible start in such a hostile place. Good job kid!! :geauxtige
Hatch looked poised out there and was doing a good job. I think the injury forced our hand a bit and the coaching staff finally opened things up. A bit too conservative in the first half. I think we as fans can have confidence in the QB's from here on out. :geauxtige
I think this is a big confidence builder for Lee; he will still need to learn and grow, and hence make mistakes here and there..... just don't throw him under the bus again!
In the first 2 1/2 games Lee looked like a qb afraid to lose his job by making a mistake. After Hatch got hurt, he didn't have to worry about that and settled in and looked more confident than ever.
It's amazing how different he was from first half to second. In the first half, I swear he would make up his mind on who he was throwing to in the huddle. Second half, great decision making. I wrote him off at half time, something I rarely do in the heat of the moment, but he proved me wrong. I think he could be a great player. And hat's off to Hatch. He got hurt trying to make something happen to give the team a spark. He's got a lot of guts
That is the way I saw it tonight as well. I did n't expect Lee to gain confidence in this game but when Hatch went down he knew what he had to do and did not have to worry about getting pulled. That is one less thing to stress about while playing a game against a strong defense. Lee did look pretty bad the 1st half and Hatch showed me he is a gamer as well. I would not be surprised to see Lee get the start and use Lee like RP last year but more of a passing threat. Both guys showed they deserved to see the field and I think that will continue assuming they are both healthy.
i'm just laughing watching the highlights. wow is lee a man... or as you day "da man!" that guy made some preaux threauxs tonight!
Hatch needs to learn this isnt harvard and get down. He runs like a RB and tries to bring the hit to the defender. Keep doing that and more concussions will follow
