Baffling Mettenberger is even in the NFL

^Yep and that's one we have to watch out for. He is a rookie and not only that, people are putting him down. Remember what he did to TB week 1. I hope our defense doesn't blow this especially with the last game but I'm more concerned about the offense. They know how to get turnovers and our history with this team's defense should tell you enough.

Dude, LSU's offense set all kinds of team records that year. It just so happened that for one of the few times, we had no defense at all. It doesn't matter how good your receivers are if you can't throw it. We had those same players with Jordan Jefferson and Jarret Lee, when we also still had Reuben Randle and we could not pass worth a crap. Why? Because our QB's sucked.

Yep and I think they will keep us guessing all the way until game time however you gotta somehow try to game plan for both.

A cannon for an arm doesn't mean a great NFL QB, I read an article that said former Ravens QB Kyle Boller could kneel at the 50 and throw the ball through the uprights.

No one said the guy was a great NFL qb. All I said was he was a great college qb and could be a solid backup. The guy posting said he has no clue how he is in the pros.

Is Mettenberger from La?
