Jennings barely knows the plays. He ALSO messes up run plays. Can't read D's and throws ducks. Mett also sat behind JJ. Weak argument bro.
There is nothing anyone can say at this stage that will lead me to believe that Brandon Harris is a better option at QB. Maybe he will be in the future, but again I don't like dual threat qb's. Let me ask you this. Would you have been in favor of starting Mett over Lee and JJ in 2011?
The thing with Mett is during those garbage time snaps that he did get before he was the starter we could see it. Well some of us could. We knew that he had a great deal of potential. That is what we see in Harris, not so much with AJ
I would have been too, I know that's pretty hypocritical considering my stance today, but I think we had the defense that would have allowed a young ZM to learn on the job. We didn't have that early on this season, and Harris showed he couldn't handle the pressure of the big stage. I'm not sure why everyone thinks Les is botching the qb handling this season, he is treating Harris completely different than Jarrett Lee. He is actually protecting him. What would have happened had Les thrown out Harris as the starter this year and we lose to Wisconsin, lose to MSST, Auburn, because we would have. People would want Harris gone, and would be doing the same shit now everyone is doing with Jennings.
I just don't see the potential with Harris you guys see. I see a faster Anthony Jennings with a stronger arm and smaller grasp on the offense.
Protecting him is preventing him from learning. Just like Mett had to learn in 2012. He got much better for 2013. Instead, we have had to sit and watch Jennings play KNOWING he isn't the answer. Its like going to the doctor, having the doc say, "DONT DO THIS", and we do it anyway.
