If losing a game that has such huge bearing on our season is not "to the point worth whining about" I don't know what would be.
I cannot count the times I have watched our QBs fail to show incremental improvements, while watching an opponent's QB grow in stature before my very eyes, in real time! (R-Kansas & Bama, sometimes Georgia, come to mind). Where in the Blue F... is our QB development? DANG!
See, now we are getting somewhere. I have never been intolerant of anyone's opinion, I think that is you because if anyone disagrees with YOU you attack them. Grow up amigo. This team was plenty good enough to win last night. The game plan sucked.
Had this been the first time you would say damn Miles got his ass handed to him, but he'll learn from it and improve his offense. However that's not the case. As the rest of the football world evolves Miles is still stuck in the past. His offensive philosophy and refusal to adjust is why we weren't even competitive last night. The game wasn't nearly as close as the score. After 5 in a row Miles deserves the criticism and the fans have the right to complain.
I wonder if Jennings was ever listed first in the bad in these recaps. I notice a particular tendency to rail Harris almost weekly however. I'll have to check. God knows Jennings was mostly horrible. This discussion should be effectively about 1 thing and 1 thing only. Les miles shitty offensive philosophy. It's the big red elephant in the room.
No, I actually agree with your comment about CLMs style. I'm just not going to whine like some (not you) and complain about spilt milk. I have zero control, and am trying to enjoy what is good about LSU football, and leave the rest. I have no control in changing CLMs offensive strategy. If I were immediately involved in the mechanics of things, like a battered wife, I would effect change somehow.
If you can't understand which issues are coaching issues and which are player issues, I can't help you much. No, you said I avoided criticizing coaches, which is nonsense. Of course. You'd have to be a fool to imagine that Les alone is responsible for poor passes, poor kicks, bad blocking and bad tackling. Sometime we play teams that are better than we are. Did you realize that?
