How do we improve our passing game?

Daniels doesn't see the field that well. He needs to improve his accuracy down the field toward the sidelines as well. He does well throwing to the RBs out of the backfield (nice touch) and hits our WRs really well on short, quick outs and slants.

The vision and downfield stuff need to improve for LSU's offense to really take advantage of how many good WRs they have. But Daniels is a gamer, a great runner and a tough SOB.

Keep working at it.

Kelly needs to work with him every day. I thought Kelly was supposed to be pretty good at developing QB's.

McElroy and company made some good points about JD needing to look downfield when running to find open receivers

They should probably start by implementing more scramble drills in practice with an emphasis on Daniels staying in a throwing stance, not tucking it. Most of the open receivers are open because he starts to scramble and the defense knows he's not going to throw.

If they can draw up a few plays with that in mind, it can be a great foundation to build off of for a confidence builder and downfield vision.

Short throws
Roll Daniels out of pocket
Bring Boutte or Nabors in motion and pitch catch with them to ge them in space

Daniels has to trust his receivers if we run go routes throw it up and let them make plays.

True.

Did you even watch the game OP?

He didn't see open guys and made several bad throws.

Need a much better QB.

Step one: see receiver.

Step two: throw to receiver.

JD has difficulty with step one.
