re: What is offense is missing right now.

I love this forum. Always want the second stringer off the bench or in this situation, probably the 4th string freshman. When those hopes finally happen and they end up sucking it's the cycle that continues. You and everyone else on here should have lowered expectations. Miles screwed this team in the QB area and even if Narcisse/Brennan are the answer it will be at least a few more years before they're ready. Narcisse is one more knee injury away from never playing again I'd rather not hurry him in the offense.

Etling is not the answer. Neither is Mcmillan or Scott. Etling was a Purdue castoff on a horrible team and played decent last year...until he went against defenses that had any pulse to them. Scott and Mcmillan were backup plans at QB because they couldn't land the blue chip recruits. The QB cupboard was barren when Miles left. These are the facts and you need to let it soak in. Etling will be average and do his job at times but don't expect him to look good in games like Bama. He plays hard but he's just not that talented against teams that can compete against LSU's athleticism. Throwing Narcisse and Brennan to the wolves is suicide especially when Brennan looks like he'd get snapped in half during SEC play and look like that scene from Not Another Teen Movie.
