    Our QB play is the low spot of our offense in my opinion, followed by the OL. Then I've heard from a few places our all-world receivers aren't helping the QB out and aren't running routes very well. Our RBs aren't producing, our FB is bad, our TE is good but sorely underutilized. Do we have offensive coaches? We look worse than last year and I never thought I would see that. Many are criticizing Crowton, and while I am reluctant to do that, our QB coach seems to have failed us and our offensive playcalling, while hamstrung, is not adjusting to or overcoming personnel issues. I think the play of our defense (bend don't break) is also bad for our offense because our offense isn't getting a chance to get any kind of rhythm.

    I really blame Miles a lot here because he is the head coach, this is our second dismal offense in as many years, our QBs are being mishandled, and if Crowton isn't getting the job done one has to question Miles' judgement on the initial hire as well as wonder why he is allowing this offense to continue to roll down the toilet bowl.

    Dude. Why don't you just combo all your threads into one big "I'm unhappy" thread instead of littering this site with multiple grumbles. It's quite annoying.

    I am new to the board but spotted that pretty easy!!

    News Flash!!!

    All Tigers are not happy with our QB play and O!!

    The question is Do you really think the LSU Football Coaching STAFF is not working this????

    If there was a fix do you think they won't try to fix it?

    Miles to Crowton" I know JL is the better QB but lets just keep playing JL"

    Crowton" Yea, that what I was thinking. Why play JL when all he does is throw TD's??"

    Miles - yep thats right. this way we can have a very slow O and lose to the Gators

    Crowton- so just keep playing JJ and keep the better QB on the bench, right.

    Miles - yep I don't like playing our best players! I like to talk to them on the sidelines. If we play them they might get hurt!!!!!

    Cliff, you are assuming that football coaches are smart and/or flexible people. Most of them aren't. What they are very good at is survival. In this game, the Captain doesn't go down with the ship. Look for a new OC next year.

    If you must know, it would have been a pretty long thread. I decided to break it up for ease of reading, sunshine pumpers be damned. I did wrap it up with a somewhat positive post. I'll take your suggestion under advisement, but it's not like I'm a fly-by-night serial spammer.

    It's all good lsu-i-like

    I know some coaches and some of them are not the brightest folk I know.

    But that being said look at the last 4 years. Where did all that O come from?

    I say it's going to work it's way out and we will be happy at some point this year.

    thats my story and I'm sticking with it!!!!

    I know. All your other threads were too long to read to begin with so I chose the shorter one. You are a broken record with the last several pages of posters. It's been a boring week. No new topics since Sunday. Same topics rehashed ad nauseum.

    Cliff,
    Good posts, nice to see someone positive, I think my question would be:
    Why, when JJ becomes a deer in the headlights, and takes multiple sacks, do you not get him out, coach him up then send him in? It seems to me we bang our heads against a wall all game. I beleive in this kid but he is super young for an sec qb, give him chances to come out and get coached before his confidence is destroyed.
