Lee was a better passer, but Jefferson was a better QB in the sense that he gave LSU the best chance to win.

This 100% incorrect way to look at the situation. The offense gave up 10 points in 60 minutes of football(remember 3 were because of the QB). The offense only managed 10 points and that is mainly due to the fact that our qb was 8-26 for only 76 yards. The main reason we lost the football game was the qb position. You dont judge 60 minutes of football on the final 50 seconds


Well thank you so much for your incredible insight and apparent absolute knowledge. I wonder if you could opine on the 2 drops by Quinn, the personal foul on our last position and the trapped ball the refs let slide on Bama's last drive ?
None of those have anything to do with Anthony Jennings or any other LSU QB, yet I'm 100% incorrect ?

Jennings didn't have an awful game despite 8-26


He did. Missed many wide open receivers. His one pass to Dural that should have been P.I. may have been the best pass he's thrown all year though. If he could do that consistently, he may become a positive force for the offense.

Everybody is entitled to an opinion. I'm not going to tell someone "GFY" for having an opinion.

However, if a person consistently pumps out spin to bash a person, then yeah, I'll tell that person, "GFY." You have to decide whether your want to advocate a position, facts be damned, or craft informed, ethical posts. I don't have much patience for the former.

CptBengal is a moron. But even worse, he pumps out crap to push his agenda. He doesn't give a shite about accuracy or ethics. His posts are so twisted and biased, they cannot even be classified as mere spin. CptBengal is just plain full of shite. One might describe him as a moonbat.


In any case, I think nearly everyone recognizes CptBengal for what he is: worthless . . . but mildly entertaining.

Here is the best written piece in an article written about the Harris-Jennings issue I have read that I would share it for those who have not seen this.


quote:

Going forward, I'm with the people calling for more playing time for Brandon Harris, but the approach has to be measured. Next week LSU plays at night, in Fayetteville, where conditions project to be very cold and possibly icy, against a solid Arkansas team on a horrible run of luck looking for a signature win. That's not the time to give the kid a start. He does need to get some meaningful snaps and a chance to earn more going forward. Jennings just isn't progressing.

But just throwing him out there would be a mistake. Harris would be set up to fail, and you risk losing both players that way. What is different about this situation versus early October, is that Harris had played well and earned his opportunity, along with Jennings struggling. That's a very different situation from just pulling Jennings out of frustration. Putting Harris in that sort of position doesn't serve either player or the team, and risks causing more damage to the situation going forward. However, they do need to start giving him a chance to earn his playing time back.

Lee led the SEC in passing efficency for much of the 2011 season. He had one bad game and Miles pulled the rug out from under him. He never got a chance to contribute after that. Suppose Miles had applied the same principals to Jennings after the New Mexico State game?

Really? You either are on crack, did not watch the football games in 2012 or don't know anything about football. Lee is no question the better QB and other than the game in Bama where JJ did play better than Lee no way JJ was a better QB or gave us the best chance to win. Look at what Lee did for the Tigers prior to the Bama game and then look what happened in both Bama games. Bama has had issues with mobile QB's lately just look at their losses and look at what the QB has done to them with their feet. But take that one game out of the mix and Lee was the better QB and gave us the best chance to win because he actually was a QB not a rceiver pretending to be a QB. No way JJ was a better QB and gave us the best chance to win.

Oh , ok so let's say he goes 12-26 for 90 yards. He was the biggest weakness on the field and the main reason we lost the football game. I don't see how anyone could say differently

You obviously have no interests in having a real discussion on the matter, continuing to defend an indefensible position. The only thing 100% is being wrong when you speak in absolutes.

So here's your argument in summary: He's good enough for 59 minutes/10 seconds of a game against a top 5 opponent for LSU to have the lead but the main reason we lost the game in the last :50. That's ignorant.

Yes, he played good enough to win. But he is still the main reason we lost. You are being ignorant by trying to put it on a unit that gave up only ten points. I put it on the person that was the main reason we only scored 13. He was bad for 59 minutes and 10 seconds. The defense was bad for 50 seconds yet you think he isnt to blame? That makes 0 sense. Bamas kicker was 2-7 against LSU in 2011, so he was good enough to win as well. Still doesnt mean he wasnt really bad and the contributing factor to the loss. Those two things are not mutually exclusive

Lee had multiple bad games that year (e.g., Oregon and Kentucky). There is some revisionist history in this argument. As with Jefferson, LSU relied on defense and rushing to win games with Lee.
