Honestly it's embarrassing for our fans to constantly bad mouth the guy. Criticism is fair, but this goes way beyond that. At the stadium yesterday and I hear supposed fans boo JD in the second quarter when he threw a low pass and yell "you suck!" The ones doing this make us look like idiots. There's a handful of QBs in the country that are performing better than JD. Nationally he is respected as one of the better QBs. And we have dumbass fans that would rather play someone else. End rant.

So he wasn’t bad against FSU and for almost the entire first half against Arkansas?

Daniels has been good this year. Great at times.

He struggled first half yesterday. Every good qb has games where things are just off.

Credit playcalling for shifting to a lot more Diggs to open up the passing a bit.

Daniels adjusted well and was one of the reasons we won.

He was much worse the first half against Arky than against FSU. Against FSU there were about 20 players that were a more detriment to the team than him.

He got off to a slow start in the game but he ultimately won the game
This team is so much better offensively in year 2 with daniels
He’s come a long ways since early last season
I’m glad he’s lsu qb1

Well said. I don’t understand why people hate on him so much. Our team would be in a so much worse place if we did not have that man. He’s earned the respect, we need to give it to him.

I don’t ever pull that crap so I understand your sentiment, but if you were at the game I can tell you on tv he made some awful misses in the 1st half.

Agreed, but to act like he’s above criticism and questioning is not warranted. He’s had too many inconsistent or downright bad games to be above it.

His throws last night in the 2nd half were still late/behind most his receivers or he was throwing off his back foot, and then he uncorks that throw to Nabers in the back of the end zone.

That pass was absolutely perfect. He has the capability to be just so damn good, it’s frustrating when he’s not living up to his potential more consistently. When he’s on, stepping into throws, throwing on time, he is in the conversation of top tier qb’s in the nation.

I see less and less people disrespecting him. Quite the opposite. Fans are fans. He started off crappy yesterday, but then played excellent the rest of the game. The QB position is the most criticized because they are the focal point of the offense. In the first half, the criticism was warranted. In the 2nd half, the praise was warranted. That's just the way it is.

Even Paul Skenes gave up gopher balls. Crews struck out some. Burrow threw some bad passes. The Honey Badger gave up some completions.

Nobody is perfect. Daniels isn’t in the class of those four guys, but he is better than most and he has proven over and over again that he can deliver in big spots and he can make big plays.

We have a lot of immature fans.

So LSU needs a QB like Beck from uga that is playing lights out from start to finish (insert sarcastic face)??

JD is fine but the D needs to work out flaws.

Has the UGA fanbase not criticized Beck?

I think the fans are expecting even more from him as a 5th year starting QB. LSU fans are still having Joe Burrow thoughts in their head.

Baseball is not the same as football and you know it.

Yes he is better than most and even elite when playing well as in throwing on time and not falling back. But to act like people can’t objectively say he was bad in the first half is ridiculous and that’s all I’m arguing.

The offense is why we won and the defense deserves to get roasted this week and anyone else with a different takeaway is wrong for this game. But to act like the criticism was unwarranted through the first half is disingenuous at best.

This narrative is getting ridiculous. He was off the first half, throwing at the feet of Nabers multiple times including one where it looked like he seriously injured his shoulder and threw a pick on a bad read. He deserved the criticism.

The second half he was damn near perfect and he was praised for it. It was an outstanding 2nd half.
Most of us just want him to be consistently good, not perfect.

Nature of the QB position. You will get criticized.

Really? I’ve been told here for a year now that only lunatics on TD say things like this about JD.

But, now, you’re telling us that fans at the game are frustrated by his throwing, too?

Nationally he’s respected…..but…..I’ve heard several on-air analysts this morning say LSU got off to a “slow start” …. Which is a nice way to put it.

Maybe your assessment of JD is not the consensus view of his performance?
