This is what I've been talking about. Etling is a senior, completely mediocre, and has zero playmaking potential. Why waste a year of rebuilding with an average senior when you can start a young guy and prepare him for when the rest of the team will be experienced?

Brennan has an arm and I know with play time will become really accurate. Narcisse has the athleticism of a WR/RB and has a powerful arm. Why not work with both of them to finish out what will likely be a very hard to watch year? Hell we need to throw several QBs at Syracuse and Troy and see who will be the starter for the UF game.

Sorry Danny, that time has past.

Danny is probably over 60% completions if you take out drops and throw aways when he was running for his life. QB was the least of our problems tonight.

FournetteForEver7•104 months

Lol ok

Lexman1•104 months

Exactly right! It's hard to lead when you're under constant pressure all night! Why would you want to put Brennan and his 190 lb. frame in to get killed in a game like last night? Did you see the shots Etling took? Narcisse would stand a better chance being mobile, but neither are ready for SEC football. Bring them along slowly and maybe they will be top shelf for the next 2-3 years. Don't ruin them by throwing them to the wolves like they did Lee and several others.

Nows the time? lol what about last year?

Tigers4Lyfe•104 months

Why now, and not before the game?

hill durham•104 months

well, should you not have already been supposed to do that before now. After all you are the starting QB

SomeLSUguy•104 months

At least we have that to look forward too... *insert eye roll here

PortCityTiger82•104 months

Meh. I have a hard time trying to put this game on Etling. The whole team was young and crumbled under the weight of a hostile road game. It all just went wrong and they didn't stop it from snowballing. Etling had pressure in his face all night and it's hard to make plays when none of the other guys are helping.

Techdog89•104 months

Correct. Etling was under pressure for most of the night. The outside rush collapsed the pocket quickly really hurrying the throws. When he had time the throws were accurate but then there were some outright drops and bad penalty calls. Really can't hang this one on Danny. Line play, both sides of the ball, and drops/penalties hurt. Having a lot of players out for injuries/ineligible/suspended hurts too. Better clean up the penalties and get some people back healthy in the next two weeks......

I'm glad to see someone actually watched the game and realized what happened instead of the same old qb and coach bashers we get on here. Thanks Techdog89 and PortCityTiger82. Very good insight!

ready4something•104 months

Well, you all have 2 more weeks to clean up your act. October 7, 2017 is looming.

tigerpawl•104 months

Do you really have to make an announcement about becoming a leader? Is there a ceremony or something?

Vernonbrew22•104 months

I agree. We needed a leader last week. Just do it

ApexTiger•104 months

We got rolled, they beat us in the trenches...2 TD's we scored and called back were bad calls but would not have been the difference. We got outclassed, outworked, out everything. This is a tough position for Coach O to be in...he doesn't have the football capital established to be given a ton of grace or time to "rebuild"....this program has had top ten recruiting classes for years and years...no excuse to be outside the top 25 and going 8-4...Tired of hoping for next year...we've been sliding since 2012 champ game..Sad reality

LuzianaFootball•104 months

I want to believe.

Dicksteel•104 months

Baffling why we can't recruit and develop a QB

hunt4hogs•104 months

LSU has always been a running team. A good QB wants to go to a team that throws the ball. Only thing our QBs are good at is handing the ball off.
