Did anyone else notice he was constantly calling out protections to OL/RB’s? This was something that made Burrow so good— he was able to make pre snap reads and pick his slide and launch points in the pocket.
Nus also showed nice ability to move around in the pocket to buy time/create angles. He threw a great ball to Taylor in the seam where he slid to the right to create a better angle.

Seems like JD has his mind made up pre snap that he’s either going to his first read or taking off— although he did display some decent pocket presence when he was forced to because of his ankle injury.

He acted like a boss on the field. Pretty amazing...

He's good, no doubt. I am just wondering how consistent at play he is. I mean, he was very aggressive throwing deep balls with accuracy. Does not mean that all games he will be that efficient. Seemed to me that he had a good day, was loose and care free in making plays.

Now do this game after game and it may be a different story.

Early in the season, when JD was playing like shite, but running all over the place, i said that Nuss was a better quarterback. I got raked over the coals pretty good about that on here, because it was the same "but JD has all of our offensive yards". I stated, that Nuss is a true quarterback and his quick reads and quick release would be more beneficial than JD's legs.

It took a while, but JD slowly won me over after he proved himself after Florida, Ole MIss, and Alabama. But, once opposing teams figured him out, he became the same JD that started the season. Holds on to the ball way too damn long, and is very indecisive.

But, again, i was told Nuss is not the future. Nuss has an attitude problem and next year it's either JD or Howard. My how things have changed.

Even when JD was forced to throw the ball he didn't do it with the confidence Nuss has. His passes seemed slow and wobbly. Nuss on the other hand fires rockets the defensive players rarely can close on when they're on target. I would like to see what this kid does with 4 quarters when not having to pass 40 times in a half to catch up.

if he did this why wouldn't he look off the safety and then come back to his pre nap read? That was what made Burrow so good

Man yall are fired up over a guy that threw two td's and one interception. And he almost threw two more interceptions.

Career completion so far is 55% with 5td and 5 interceptions.
