I’m not defending JD but he seems to be a kid who gets rattled easy. He gets nervous.

Sunday night, FSU DL BLEW LSU OL off the line. They were living in the backfield. I think that threw everything off-sync, rattled Daniels and made him play worse. No, he does not have a good arm. His strength is running and he got rattled. I would have brought Nuss in for a series or two to let Daniels settle down. But kelly knows if he does he’s going to have a QB controversy on his hands.

Great idea. Nuss doesn’t get rattled. He’s ready to jump right in there at any given moment.

We simply got manhandled at nearly every position. Hard to swallow - it sure is.

JD holds the ball to long and can't throw receivers open. He makes the Oline look worse than they are. Brad Davis needs to go.

JD is a headcase. He just doesn’t have it at this level to be elite. BK had him come back though and isn’t going ruin his draft chances

LSU winning is not Kelly's top priority it appears.

Except when he’s throwing a pick 6 to powerhouse defenses like … *checks notes* Southern University.

Honestly, I don't see him get rattled. He is pretty consistent. He just doesn't pull the trigger on a lot of throws and he doesn't move away from pressure well. His way of avoiding pressure is to take off running.

This never accomplished what you think it will

Every qb in America gets rattled with the DL blowing throw the OL

they need to block better no matter the QB

This was JD's m.o. last season as well. His eyes drop and he waits too long and doesn't hit the WR's in the break.
His decision making is too slow. That tells me his pre-snap read is not what it should be and he sits and waits for somebody to be open and is to worried about hitting them when they make the break.

Instead of working on JD to try and push the ball deep or be a pocket passer, the coaches should have taught him to keep his eyes downfield when he takes off and dump it to an open receiver when the defense breaks off to come after him. That small change could make his skillset (running) a Heisman candidate. He's never going to be a pocket passer or deep threat. But, unfortunately, that work needed to be done this past spring/summer.

We are all aware Nuss has so much more pocket escapability

I am a JD defender. But he had time in most cases We are asking him to sit in a pocket and he is just not as comfortable. Let’s move him around and use his strengths. Only a moron would continue to not use his full skill set

And Daniels has been blown out three of his last four starts. He look like absolute trash against Arkansas, which had one of the worst pass defenses at all of college football.

If an O-line wins 60% of the snaps that’s a great day. This notion that a QB should have 4 seconds to throw each time is ridiculous. A QB should be able to make quick decisions under pressure. That’s the job. Daniels does not excel at this.

JD was running for his life all too often. Some was his fault, but some wasn’t.

The man led comebacks last year and led us to some big wins. I don’t think he gets so rattled that he loses control. He will be fine.

False. The line did not run block well but actually did ok in pass protection.
