Boutte played horrible last week. He wasn't missed this week.

But I get the gist

Not much of an argument here

But you can't dismiss not having Fournette as if it means nothing

I know he only had one catch, but Davis looks like the real deal. Kid is going to be a stud.

He really did. Did you see him prior to his one catch when he caught that squib kick from JSU? That was him who fielded the kick and did not want to go down. He is much tougher than Dupre, lets give him and Jazz a chance

Dupre is not producing for whatever reason; he has looked like a QB-killer with all his no-catches. He has earned some well-deserved and prolonged bench time. So that others who want to and will catch and fight for the ball can do that. Maybe on the bench he can sort out his priorities, or count splinters.

The guy who was 6-15 or something against Jax St

You know it's always funny because it seems like LSU fans have the same things happen year after year and never learn from them. QB plays bad, new comes in and does okay and all of a sudden he's a savior only to be exposed later. Same situation over and over. Highly touted WR plays bad a couple games, has some drops and people are calling him sorry. I remember Odell had a tough year with drops his sophomore year and everyone called him trash and overrated blah blah blah. Yall don't understand 1) Sometimes young players mess up and 2) As a receiver if you're not used to getting the ball much in games it can be hard to get focused and confident even for easy plays. Just like in basketball a good scorer has to continue to shoot through a slump a good receiver has to continue to get thrown the ball when open to develop his confidence and rhythm.

Who F'ing cares? His job at LSU is to catch the ball and he is doing a horrible job. He should be demoted until he picks it up, or declare and go dazzle them in the NFL. Grestvplayers don't play down to competition, they crush weaker players.
I defended him last week. I trueky felt the throws were bad enough. But now he's clearly showing a problem with concentration.

Fact#1: In 2 games, Dupre has more drops than he does catches

Fact#2: Smith, Dural, Fournette, and Darrel Williams all have more yards than Dupre through 2 games and waaaay fewer targets.

I wish so badly Davis could get on the field.. and that we would show multiple 4-5 receiver looks and run different routes than just going deep as often as we do. I'm not counting the tight end/rb/fb stuff here.

Would like to see our receivers get the ball in their hands in some way other than just chucking it deep. A guy like Davis has game-breaker skills.. just get it in his hands.
