I agree 100%. I am pretty tired of hearing he had a bad game vs Ky. He delivered the ball to the receivers, he cant make them catch it.
This is the bigger question. Does Jefferson even get an entire series to himself? Do we want to possibly disrupt the continuity for Lee like that? I see JJ only playing within a series, not an entire series. And especially not 3 or 4 series.
It was just like the Oregon game and yes the stats were skewed by dropped passes, but 6 or 7 dropped passes? Not sure. My guess is more like 3 or 4, and so many passes (even those that were caught like Shepard's) were thrown way too high. When you're having to try to catch passes near your fingertips with your arms completely outstretched over the middle of the field or in traffic, you're not gonna enjoy a tremendous amount of success. They need to keep working with Lee and force him to throw off his plant foot. That will keep the passes from sailing on him like that. He's making great decisions, it's just his accuracy that comes into question.
I guess you never really know, but I would say that if we really intended to bring out JJ for significant playing time, we wouldn't have gone through the trouble of slipping a series of JJ runs/options into the Kentucky game. I just think that if it was intended to be a serious part of the playbook for Florida, we wouldn't have shown it in those circumstances.
I hate to say it...but I think you guys are wrong......I think you will see what you saw last year...just reversed roles.
Miles loves him some JJ. Unfortunately I think you will see more and more of him as the season moves along to a point neither feels it is their team.
I think you might be given away to what you are fearing ! Les has never messed with what is working , the QB last year had issues and he messed with it. This year is not last year !!!
I think Miles stays true to his word: JL is our starter. I think JL plays 90% of the snaps if he is doing well. I think Miles understands team chemistry and will not do anything to disrupt that. I also agree that JJ will play in an "insert here" role vs series at a time.
