Definitely very generous if JD is out.
However,
Florida throws screens like it's going out of business, thats why his completion percentage is so high. PFF charts him at nearly 1 in every 3 passes are behind the LOS, these are 90%+ throws for anyone. Their offense has proven ineffective many times this season, see - 11 against Utah, 22 against Charlotte, 14 against Kentucky, 20 against UGA...they've sputtered quite a bit this season offensively.

Yeah, I was about to say Mertz’s completion percentage is very deceptive.
It’s going to be an interesting matchup of a Florida passing attack that isn’t explosive against a defense that allows a ton of explosive plays.

I understand what you are doing in downplaying Florida's offense but our defense does not deserve the benefit of the doubt in being able to stop anybody. But I do like that this game is at home and like our offensive weapons even if Nuss has to start due to Daniels being out with an injury.

I know Mertz is a dink and dunk QB, but we don't tackle well and play CBs 10+ yards off the LOS. This would be a good game to get Weeks back on the field. Penn is slow and Speights is still not showing why he was a top portal LB. I can't see either chasing down screens.
