First, the RB did not lose a fumble, in contrast to OP. That fumble is on the center, who clearly snapped the ball without JL calling for it.
Second, I think JL played pretty well, but certainly not perfectly. I think all of his throws were balls that could have been caught. A couple were broken up by good plays by the Oregon defense, and a couple were drops by the receivers. In contrast, a great many of the passes that Thomas threw were nowhere close to his receivers. Obviously, the LSU defensive line deserves credit for getting pressure, and the OL deserves credit for giving JL time to throw, but JL looked much more accurate than Thomas, who was supposed to be the better passer.

That is much more acceptable than saying the incompletions "should" have been caught. There were a couple maybe even a few the should have been caught but saying that most or all of incompletions "should" have been caught is reaching to make his look better than he did.
