I'm happy to hear that. My 11-year-old daughter could get behind the Bieber hair, but she said, "The 'stache makes him look like a 40-year-old man." A major diss from a middle schooler.
Good thing A&M was not worried about a QB w/o experience this year................Rivers may not fix anything but you WILL NEVER know what he can do until he gets in the game. Continued poor QB play (many times poor decision making) should not be rewarded with more playing time that has the same or similar results. That being said, if Mett comes out and eliminates the MULTIPLE issues he has, then he deserves to keep his spot. What point are you proving if ZM mistakes cost LSU the game and no one else takes his place?
So kinda random here anybody notice he got rid of the mett-stache? Mark my words this is going the turn around our team!
And to anyone wanting to bench him here's a stat line for u 4 highest qb rating in the SEC (37th nationally) and he on pace to throw for 3,000 yards this year even with 20 + drops so please just settle down and let's look for a solution to real problems like who the hell is gonna block clowney? He worries me more than bama
He is averaging BARELY 200 yds per game............how does he throw for 3000 with only 7 games left and now faces the REAL defenses on the schedule? I think I will wait to see some REAL PROGRESS before I settle down.
Opponent Comp. Att. Yards Comp. % TD INT Pass Eff. North Texas 19 26 192 73.1% 1 1 140.1 Washington 12 18 195 66.7% 1 0 176.0 Idaho 17 22 222 77.3% 2 1 182.9 Auburn 15 27 169 55.6% 0 0 108.1 Towson 15 26 238 57.7% 2 0 160.0 Totals 78 119 1016 65.5% 6 2 150.5 Nothing in here quite suggests a passing game that is entirely broken. Mettenberger's only real down game was against Auburn, and he was over 10 yards per attempt against Washington and Idaho. His passing efficiency is not bad; a 150.5 on the season would have led the entire SEC last year. Offense is up in 2012 over '11 so it's not a completely apt comparison, but the point stands: it's not a bad score. Neither is his 65% completion percentage, nor his having thrown just two picks on the season. LSU is 95th in the country with 203.2 passing yards per game. That sounds pretty bad, but it's not that far off from the team in the absolute middle, No. 62 Tulsa and its 236.6 yards per game. For Mettenberger to throw for 236.6 yards per game on his 119 attempts, he'd have to get 9.94 yards per attempt. That rate would place him 10th nationally instead of the 24th where he is currently. He simply doesn't throw for more yards because he doesn't throw more passes. http://www.teamspeedkills.com/2012/10/2/3443310/lsus-passing-game-explained
