The fact that this thread debating whether you would prefer a guy taking third team reps, behind 2 horrible QBs on one of the worst passing offenses in the country the last 3 yrs in a row.

While the other guy was coached under a competent coaching staff for 3 yrs. Oh and he happened to be the MVP of the National Championship.



We like Mett. Stop crying about it.

Not crying at all. Just can't wait for the fall out. I remember when JJ was the savior.

You should post this for the 3rd time. I guess the part when LSU fans tell you that Miles wouldn't start a first year guy learning the system over 2 senior qb's must go through one ear and out the other of you brain dead gumps.

lol you Bama fans wont answer my question if you would rather have Michael Ford or Tj Yeldon in your backfield for next season.



oh sorry, I did not see the question. TJ for sure. Comparing RBs is a wholllle lot different than comparing QBs. All a RB has to do is take handoffs ,pass block, and catch a few passes. QB runs shite. Its really complicated, so I understand if you don't get it.

So, you're going to take a guy who has not taken a meaningful snap again SEC competition, like Mett, over a guy who has proven he can have success against SEC competition, like McCaron.

Don't give me this "qb is different from rb" shite. The point of the question wasn't to compare the difficulty of those 2 positions. It's the fact that the Alabama fans would most likely want to take their chance with their unproven guy (Yeldon in this case) than take the other proven guy (Ford). At the end of the day, the unproven guy might end up being better than the proven guy.

Read the rest of the post gump and you can see I wasn't saying playing running back is as easy as quarterback.

It was showing that you would rather take the unproven guy who looks promising than take another team's proven guy. Which is what LSU fans are trying to say in this thread.

It's complicated for you to understand, I know. A simple 21-0 response would be fine.

Cam was 6'6" 250 and ran a 4.5 his success as a QB had very little to go with coaching at the Juco level or AU.

JJ was suspended, that was the perfect time to play Mett if his talent was so much greater than the other two.

Miles had a excuse to bench his starter for a player that clearly should have been starting.

I read it. The fact of the matter is LSU fans want to take their chances with Zach. I don't know you Bama drama queens are getting so worked up over the fact that we want Mett over your dump-pass machine chest-tatted McCarron.

Some of the LSU fans act as if Mett is some sure fire once in a generation talent. Outside of ARM strength he takes a back seat to McCarron.

Accuracy, Decision making, release, mechanics, mobility all favor AJ. That's why he was a better prospect 3 yrs ago and remains that way today.

Link? We just want him to be good enough, like McCaron was, to win us a title. He doesn't have to nominated for the Heisman. And I won't say he takes a backseat to McCaron in any category until he plays a full season or at least half a season like Aj did.

Again, Aj has a whole season under his belt. Mett played some of the Northwestern State and Ole Miss games. Unfair to compare to guys with that large of a difference in playing time. But please tell me more how Aj is a Heisman lock.

All we need is a quarterback. We now have one. That is all we need. He doesn't have to be Drew Brees, just a game manager that makes smart decisions. It was was the missing piece. And now we found it.

A post corner route is not a dump pass. You know that route McCarron killed LSU with in the BCSNC. Thing of beauty.

No one is getting worked up about what you guys want. But some of you were the same guys talking about having the experience QB before the 11-5 game and now experience doesn't mean anything.

I think Mett will be a good QB, but with the team you guys have coming back next season, I do not see how anyone thinking logically would not pick a experienced national title winning QB.
