Was that a message from Sloan? Look, I think he is bad. But if you had the most limited QB in the league. Wtf do you do.

Get a new guy in and he shoots it down the seam.

Yet, he won’t start here because of who Bustcryer’s dad is. Really feel bad for him.

That’s my question. Why when the backup comes in, we suddenly push the ball down field? Is it Nuss or Sloan that wants the 3 yards out routes

Yes he can and we’ve seen him make it before. LSU simply doesn’t run a lot of downfield plays over the middle because 1) they don’t have the time to or 2) they are worried about Nuss making a bad decision.

It’s beyond clear that MVB should start

BK is prioritizing Garrett‘s loyalty to LSU by letting him start and giving him playtime than he is getting wins for the program.

Sloan isn’t capable of that high level of thinking

I’ve wanted MVB in since S Carolina but we have to remember he wasn’t playing against aTm’s 1st string guys.

agree, but also he came in and threw in garbage time against a defense that was starting to substitute and let off the gas.

You dont understand 8 games into the season that Nuss only throws check downs?

Ive been telling yall for WEEKS that guys are open downfield. Nuss refuses to throw it. Do you realize that almost 80% of Nuss throws are less than 5 yards?

Yall keeping blaming Sloan and Im telling you right now, he ain't the problem yall think. Nuss makes up close to 70% of our issues.

If Nuss isn’t making the throws that Sloan calls and Sloan and Kelly don’t replace him, the blame falls on the leaders. They aren’t replacing Nuss so they are ok with his performance.

Who is calling all the third down plays where the routes are not past the first down marker?

He still attacked the middle of the field immediately, which for whatever reason Nuss refuses to do

If you call plays like that for Nuss he throws 3 picks a game. Probably 4.

The QB is the problem not the guy trying to call a game to minimize how shitty your QB is.

make no mistake, I am not a fan of any of the trio. But I don’t think Sloan wants Nuss and his noodle arm coupled w bad decisions making any throws over the middle. I don’t blame him. Hell he may be jumping up and down on BKs desk to replace Nuss.

But it wasn’t a safe, get your feet wet call. Or hell. Maybe VanBuren went rogue and said “watch this”
