He had perfectly thrown passes to Dural and Diarse which set up TDs. His 2 incompletions were on a dropped screen pass and a decently thrown pass to Quinn that could've been caught (although it would've been a tough catch). Not saying he was perfect by any means but he threw some really good passes last night under pressure.

He has a knack for the comeback

that screen pass was entirely his fault. Lob the ball to Fournette and he has the first down.

How many beers did you drink to think that was a decent pass?

Be honest

Jennings was terrible at throwing screens in this game. I think we tried 3 screens and he whiffed on all 3.

I wanted to see Fournette out in space so bad.

The screen pass was a poor throw... The deeper ball to Quinn should've been lofted.. Quinn had him beat but Jennings was under pressure and needed to get the ball out.. Glad Jennings stepped it up in the 2nd half , the play calling seemed to be smoother in the second half and they tried putting him in comfortable spots..

That toss to Dural after the fake punt was beautiful. He knew he was going to take a shot and still dropped it right in on tight coverage.

Jennings looked much better when he actually threw the ball instead of lobbing it. Hopefully, he learns as he goes.

The kid sure does throw a pretty good ball. Puts lots of air under nearly every throw

So the bad screen passes are what you guys are gonna take from his performance? He threw a perfect pass on the run right to Dural for 80 yards and then another for 44 yards with a defender drilling him in the chest and you guys are pissed about the screens?

Quinn would have likely made the catch, but the defender pulled his right hand off the ball. Likely would have been an espn top 10 play if he had made it

Looked like a different QB in the second half. He looked more comfortable and confident. He will only get better. I'm pretty excited to see him progress this year!!!

Jennings played very well in the second half but you kind of have a revisionist history on his 2 incompletions

I literally just saw this play happen again on ESPNU and Jennings not only threw a bullet but it was well behind Fournette. It was a bad throw.

The defender broke it up, it was thrown too late.

No.

I was just commenting on the screens only.

Lighten up. AJ made some great throws.

Jennings has to be more patient on the screens. They were set up nicely for good gains if he could have completed a couple of them. This is easily correctable tho
