    But he's tough. He took it like a man.

    Doesn't matter sully ... CLM said JJ is the teams "best chance of success" .. therefore, it must be true. [just ask all these guys, they'll tell ya!] He may go 3-out all game long, but he will still be our best chance of success.

    Lee is a diaper boy, and curls up in a fetal position as soon as he gets the snap. He did just fine against panty waste teams like OR, FL, WVU, MState ... but he would have sucked against GA. And, it's a foregone conclusion, he should just suit up with the cheerleaders for the NCG.

    Sabanfan put it most succinctly ... Lee Sucks ... end of thread

    Do me a favor. Watch that play again. You will notice the only receiver is Reuben Randle, there are tight ends in the formation, but everyone except Randle Stays back to block. Randle is not only guarded by a cornerback, he is guarded by a safety over the top. So on our own goal line, we get a passing play called with 1 receiver running a route. Jefferson didn't throw the ball because Randle was double covered and he had no where else to go with it. He could have tried to throw it away but could have been hit with grounding in the endzone, same result. There was nowhere to run. Bad play call. Put Lee in the same exact situation he probably throws pick 6 to the safety.

    If you are talking about the quarterback position being mismanaged over a course of 4 seasons, I would tend to agree with you. But I am not a coach, I don't know what goes on in practice, but I do know with Jefferson you have more options. Neither one are really any good. Jordan shows flashes of a solid option quarterback who can throw, and Lee shows flashes of a solid pocket passer. My whole point is, Les knows. Trust your coach.

    Anyway my reply was actually to the original post when it was said that Lee should tell Miles to f off, or whatever it said. If that were to happen, yes I stand by what I said, he needs his ass kicked, and if he wanted to play so freaking badly he wouldn't have lost the job in the first place.

    I will be glad when they are both gone, I'm sick of seeing one or the other on the sideline pouting like little bitches because they aren't in the game. Be thankful you were able to contribute, and move on.

    A good QB would have just thrown it way over RR's head into the stands. I don't think you are at liberty to say what Lee would have done. Lee probably would have audibled out of the play to begin with.

    That was a rather suckish play.

    If I am not at liberty to say what Lee would have done, how can you turn around and do the same thing.

    Let me ask you this....

    Do you think Jarrett Lee can succeed against Alabama?

    Yes .. yes I do!!

    Lee has a very fast release, .. and short, high percentage passes would have succeeded quite well. Those little bumb and release routes that Richardson has burned people on all season long, Lee could do quite well. Bump release from the TE as well.

    But .. CLM doesn't have those plays in his playbook. He either runs it, or throws down field, or does that stupid WR screen B.S.

    None of us know that yet. Mett hasn't seen any meaningful time on the field. And remember, Crowton's offense looked great for all of one season, too. Only time will tell.

    I have watched Jarrett Lee play against Alabama for 4 years in a row. Here are his numbers.

    24 for 58 for 316 yards, 1 Touchdown (redshirt freshman season) and 7 picks. completion percentage of .41

    Jordan Jefferson in 3 years, his freshman year he didn't play against Alabama.

    26 for 40 for 322 yards 2 TD's and 0 picks. completion percentage of .65

    I'm assuming you saw those games too right? I would play Mettenberger before I played Lee against Alabama.

    Our running quarterback has more completions and yards in less attempts and 1 less game, more touchdowns and 7 less turnovers than our passing quarterback does.

    Plus he has escapability which forces defenses to respect that. This is going to be a game for grown folk. Not Jarrett Lee.

    Those numbers are really all anyone needs to know.

    I'm not concerned about the past.

    I still say that if CLM would have had to figure out how to beat Bama with Lee in the first game, he could have done it. But he didn't. It was noted in the media, even ol slobbering lou noted it, everyone knew it, .. that CLM would be using JJ in the Bama game. The whole putting JJ in the game a bit more each game when he came back was building up to the point so that he could make the switch to JJ in the Bama game.

    CLM didn't call the right plays to utilize Lee's talents. He ran up the middle, and threw the ball down field. CLM never developed the offense that uses Lee to his full potential .. and that goes for the entire season. Against Bama, when the "JJ Offense" didn't work with Lee, he brought in JJ. He stuck Lee back out their and immediately threw the ball down field .... and we haven't seen him take meaningful snaps since.

    Lee is every bit the quarterback that McCarron is. Probably a little better. Run those kinds of plays, and Lee can be as successful as the next guy. Ford on the bump and out route as a relief would have killed Bama's LB blitz. A few successful plays would have backed the D off a bit, and the offensive line would have found its legs. That kind of threat would have openened up the run a tad as well.

    Ya dang right I could beat Bama with Lee. All day long!! I dang sure could have mustered up 3 points. That is all JJ mustered up in the last game.

    Like I said, let's hope "cotton bowl" JJ shows up, because LSU is toast if he doesn't. I luv JJ when he is on. ... I can't stand to watch him when he is off .. especailly knowing that there is a pretty potent weapon sitting on the sideline that is grossly under utilized who can make plays that JJ doesn't do so well ... only problem is ..CLM don't run those plays ... because .. JJ doesn't do them well. .. not in the playbook .. sorry.

    You mean you aren't concerned about the past with Jarrett Lee, you are with Jordan Jefferson however.

    You gotta go with the lesser of 2 evils. Jordan Jefferson should see every snap.
