His instincts are to hold it until he sees a WR open.

Against Zone, that's harder.

He regressed this week.

Guys were open and he still didn't throw it

Ar-Kansas focused on taking away the short routes. Combine that with the oline letting defenders through, you get that kind of game for Daniels.

His performance sent a chill through Tiger Nation. If zombie JD5 returns, LSU may lose to 4&8 and will get rolled by UGA.

This. Barry Odom is one of the best in the biz and he had a perfect gameplan. He took what UT did and just called and executed it a lot better than they could.

Daniels has been doing fine against man lately, but he still isn’t confident enough to identify the soft spots in a zone and throw guys into them. Add the constant pressure and the fact that they kept the defense compressed and you also have more people facing the ball every snap, meaning there were more defenders ready to react whenever Daniels tried to run.

What we needed to do was hit them deep, or at least try, to back them off. I’m pretty sure that’s why we were trying to do early in the game. If you can back the safeties off, it opens a lot of extra space in each zone. Unfortunately, the constant pressure and sacks in the first half put an end to that.

My theory is he was told to stay in the pocket more and work on his throwing this game. I don’t think we expected Arkansas to play that aggressive on defense. We never adjusted from this. If you go back and watch that game compared to the other games where he looked good in, he stayed in the pocket far more often in this game. He is not a pocket passer and I don’t know that he ever will be.
