So met was marginally better than an average SEC quarterback in 2013 yet y'all suck his cock at every turn?

Such a simple-minded opinion.

Judging a guy's season based on his peers is certainly fair. However, when that season occurs in a year with one of the best stocks of quarterbacks in the history of the league, some deviation needs to be accounted for.

Mettenberger's season was good enough to be a top-three season at his position in the vast majority of years since the turn of the century, at least. With the defense LSU had that season, that kind of quarterback play was exactly what they needed.

Can't go back that far but it happened. Lsu fans were creaming their pants for him after he won the Ark game at the end of the season and won the bowl game. But keep denying .

What are most Pro Football fans saying in regards to these Quarterbacks???

It is their thing.

Offseason 2013: Chavis is the best DC in the SEC

Offseason 2015: Chavis was holding back the LSU defense.

shite, throw Marshall in the discussion as well, unless you're strictly speaking about passing.

Dude rushed for 1,000 yards.

However, that's not my point. Trying to minimalism Mettenberger's season because other guys had great years too is just silly. If he played in 2014, he would have been the 2nd or 3rd best quarterback in the league.

Like I said, a lot of guys had a great season at that position in 2013. Doesn't mean any of them were "overblown."

AJ gave people every reason to be excited. He looked like he had the tools to be good. Athletic, good deep ball. We were wrong it happens every year, some players dont live up to the lofty expectations we all hold them too

No one was saying this in 2013.

We lost 2 games on the final drive because of his prevent crap. With one of the best offenses we've had in a long time.

and yet that had nothing to do with the conversation. a poster insinuated that LSu fans were wrong in thinking Mettenberger would turn around the offense at LSU. he did.

Baw your obsession with LSU is scary. You remember what LSU posters were saying way back in 2013?

Translation: You can't expect a Les Miles team to have a good offense, so if one breaks some kind of record then we will crown their arse and y'all have to accept it because reasons.

In 2013 y'all weren't top 20 in points per game. That is the point of an offense.

I have no idea how you got that out of what I said.

Probably because you're not the brightest.
