[TRUE2LSU;1012320]Come on guys! Give the Lee bashing a break. He is just a kid playing football! I am sure he knows he did not play well tonight! He did the best he could and that was obviously good enough, because we won the game.Let's just all be happy our Tigers pulled out a win tonight! There is no need in bashing a college kid! If he was your son, would you want everyone and their brother on this board ragging on him because he did not play well enough to suit them! WE WON!!! BE HAPPY FOR TONIGHT! :geaux:[/QUOTE] A win is a win, ugly or not. I really do feel bad for JL -- horrible position to be in last year, effectively a sacrificial lamb. Unfortunately, it appears he has not improved, certainly not enough to start at this level... I hope JJ is back next week. :geauxtige
He had zero chance to put the naysayers to bed. He could have hit one or two of the deep balls that he over threw... other than that... the play calls should have been RUN... only 5 in the box most of the night.
If he would have led this team to a decisive victory, instead of grounding the ball, and throwing up prayers off his back foot, getting our receivers killed, completely over throwing wide open people deep, throwing the wr screens behind the receivers, throwing the ball behind the backs coming out of the backfield, etc. etc. Maybe everyone who has trashed this kid would have finally put it to rest. I am not saying they would throw him on their shoulders and walk him around the stadium like Rudy, but he could have done alot for his reputation, and he failed.
He was 10-17 with a TD and no INTs against one of the best D's in the country. We had poise and a chance... until Lee stepped in. Auburn's D is bad, but I bet La Tech's is pretty close, and look how great Lee looked. Get a grip, bro.
