I love JD, but are we a playoff team with him?

The six teams at the top of the CFP, the only teams that ever had a chance had: Stetson Bennett, JJ McCarthy, Max Duggan, CJ Stroud, Bryce Young, Henson Hooker
I don’t know that JD is the level of passer of those guys. I’m not saying he needs to be Joe Burrow, but he’s not someone who elevates those around him like those six guys do

We don’t have another Joe Burrow on the roster. We have someone better. NUSS

We aren’t a playoff team with the lack of depth on defense.

JD arguably had a better 1st season at LSU than Burrow did. Did you know we had a playoff QB in Burrow before the bowl game in 2018? I don't think many people did.

There is steel-reinforced ceiling with JD at QB. That ceiling is decently high, call it 10 wins, but maybe not a deep playoff run type team. We can’t go into shootouts with teams with him at the helm.

Going into the last week of the regular season we were ranked #5 in the CFP rankings, and absolutely controlled our own destiny to make the playoffs. It ultimately didn't happen, but just that fact tells you that we were very close, WITH DANIELS STARTING.
So, the answer is obviously yes.
I would expect the team, as a whole to improve. And I think (if Daniels returns and starts) that we should see improvement from him having more time in the system and a better team around him.

I think him coming back would be a very good thing. Still not sold on Nuss and Howard might need some more time. Quality depth

you don't think JD is at that level of passing? lol. What makes you think that?

Well considering we were one win away from being a playoff team with him and the reason we lost was due to injury and the defense, I’d say yes, we can be a playoff team with him.
Are we a national champion is the better question.

Pushing the ball downfield is not the reason this team didn’t make the playoff this year. But his athletic playmaking ability is why we were in that position before the A&M game.

Y’all should just shut the frick up and trust Coach Kelly

This team is not a top 4 team no matter who is at qb.
