Yes, that's right and context will tell you Brennan carried the team. If you think otherwise, you didn't watch the games. His oline was fricking atrocious and he had zero run game help. Not to mention the defense put pressure on him due to being historically bad. He got sacked like 7-8 times just in the Miss State game. If you still don't think the numbers he put up was impressive then you don't know football. That team was different by the end of the year than what Brennan played with. Bad team all year but better than what he had. You can't be picky about redzone offense when they put the yards and points up they did. They were bad calls anyone with eyes could see the redzone play calling wasn't good. I love E but this is where Brady removed that weakness on LSU's offense even Steve admitted this. Plain and simple.




None of this has anything to do with the present day or the fact that Kelly/Denbroke want a QB with mobility and Daniels provides that while Brennan doesnt.

I'm willing to bet that Kelly and Denbrooke are flexible enough to realize that a QB making good decisions with the ball is more important than how fast a QB can run. Maybe it will be Daniels. Maybe not.

Yeah.

And a lot of people keep saying “RPO doesn’t require a mobile qb”. No, it doesn’t. But that’s not the issue for Brennan. The issue is that Denbrock prefers a QB with mobility. So Brennan also has that working against him. I wish him luck.

Based on his past work with QBs? Maybe. Though Brennan may lack the athleticism for an RPO, he's actually a good fit everywhere else for the RPO offense Denbrock likes to run. He's definitely a better passer than Daniels so the question comes down to what they value the most. If you think legs on the ground and minimum throwing is winning you SEC games it's going to be welcome to the SEC fast. It can work but the execution would need to be excellent similar to our 2011 team when we were incredibly efficient with Lee throwing the ball. That's speculation though. BK is the one who courted Brennan to come back not the other way around. He convinced him he could work great in this offense. I doubt they promised Daniels anything. It's a good problem for LSU to have. The best QB will win the job.

If Emery reaches his potential you don't need extra legs on the ground. Now, if Emery is at his potential and Daniels has shown nice progression with his passing then that gives you a layer that Brennan could never touch and makes an offense dangerous since he has the added running ability. To this point though, he hasn't reached it or come close to it. We've only seen a small sample size to Brennan too so it's really difficult to say what we have in him. LSU couldn't miss an opportunity like Daniels to give him a shot because his talent is there. It should also be said if WRs are not happy they will enter the transfer portal. I just can't see passing being anything but a priority for the QB position. Legs are secondary and I'm sorry to say so far, Daniels has not shown progression in his passing. I have a hard time believing he's there in a few months time.
