I watched all of this...
I believe Jayden gives LSU the best chance to win. He doesn't turn it over, his running abilities are exceptional, but he is an average at best passer. He will NOT throw the ball unless the WR is wide open or it's a short pass. He does not see receivers down the field. He cannot read a defense or even a defensive end on a zone read run. It seems like most of his decisions are predetermined. Needless to say, he is the exact same QB he was last season and that is very frustrating and concerning.

I do wish Daniels would have improved in his reads, but unfortunately he hasn't. That said, it's more frustrating that the coaching staff hasn't adapted their play calls to his skill set. There shouldn't be long developing routes. Don't put seven blockers up front and limit his running lanes. Let him play flag football.

During our best 3 game stretch last season Daniels average 18 rushes per game, most of them designed runs. The backs averaged 22 rushes per game and the run pass ratio was +50% run. That’s the formula, what we did Sunday was over 60% pass with the backs getting a total of 12 attempts. The staff should know how to call games for this QB and this offense by now.

This is where I disagree with you for all the reasons you listed below that statement…
Last year I agreed and it was probably accurate then. I expected JD to make a step progression after a full offseason to work on his known weaknesses but it did not show last weekend.

I don't get you, man. how can you believe daniels is ou best chance? granted, we don't know for sure unless we get to see the Nuss. and based on your post, the logical conclusion is that we need to see nuss.

This re: Daniels. No improvements since last year. Why do we expect a different result later in the season?
