He looked terrible when he got a chance from the pocket. Not that anybody could blame him. He probably still hears footsteps this morning.

That would admit he made wrong choice. He would rather lose being right than win being wrong.



I see you aren’t familiar with Brian Kelly and QBs. The dude was like post wuerfalll spurrier with switching QBs at ND.

Jayden was adequate to win and wasn’t the problem. I do hope to see more nuss though and expect we will

I know at times he ran because there was a big opening, simply a great opportunity to make good yardage. And at times he ran because there was big pressure and he had to move. When he had time, though, and ended up running, I couldn't help but wonder if receivers were all covered up or if he saw primary was covered and was not able to view the field quickly enough and see if another receiver was open.

Quite frankly, when we scored the last TD, I was hoping we'd go for 2 and him run it in. I guess people would still be pissed about that because he runs too much lol.


His legs were the reason I was confident they would score that final td, and like you said, confident they would have got the 2.

Wrong. QB was solid given the poor protection. Not a single interception, and I was impressed with his accuracy.

Easy to be accurate when you average 6 yards a throw.

BK said that we would probably see Nuss also.
As terrible as the play was during the first half, why not try another QB that is supposedly almost equal?
As I stated before, FSU QB was under pressure by our defense all game long but still managed to make throws for positive yardage.
You cannot win consistently if the majority of rushing yards are by the QB. No matter how great you think the 4th quarter was, we still lost the game.
One of the purported keys to winning was to get the ball into the hands of our playmakers. Well, that did not happen, and QB1 was ONE of the reasons it didn't happen. So sorry that you think that my question was dumb. But I do not relish watching another game with QB1 using only his legs to try and win the game.

Because he wanted Daniels to develop confidence rather than playing cautiously, worrying he might be pulled if he made mistakes.

If he had pulled Daniels last night it might have ruined the guy for the rest of the year.

Plus you don’t want to create a qb controversy or division among the team.

The QB was not the problem ! Our offensive line is the problem ! Little to no protection and no running lanes and dropped passes.

Daniels showed athleticism and resilience last night.

Game on the line with the last play and he threw a perfect dart to Jenkins after noticing that Boutte was completely covered. That's poise.

His ability to scramble kept numerous drives alive when the offensive line couldn't do its job.

should have already had 140 yards and 2 TDs, but our should be most reliable receiver didn't do his job.

Was not impressed by Daniels. Take away that last drive, and his stats don’t look that good. If the first read wasn’t there, he ran while having other WRs open.
But the offensive line did not help him at all.

Again, do you think we would have scored touchdowns on 4/4 drives instead of 3/4 drives with Nuss at QB in the second half?

Daniels did exactly what Kelly wanted which is compensate for bad play calling.

Do you stupid fricks not realize that JD orchestrated 3 straight TD drives including a 99 yard drive to end the game to keep us close? When is the last time we had a QB lead us a on a 99 yard TD drive to end a game?


He had <50 yards passing and 3 points at halftime. He just wasn't very good for most of the game. It makes sense why someone would ask in that scenario, given how tightly contested the QB battle was, why we don't go with QB 1B at some point.

The FSU QB received pressure all night long but had the inclination and ability to find his open receivers and throw to them instead of always running.


Their o line played light years better than LSU.
Not even close

Because there is no QB 1B like many speculated. There’s a QB 1 and a QB 2
