Our struggles at QB have nothing to do with lack of talent

we continuously put our QB in a position to fail. We run the ball on first and second down and then throw a predictable screen on third and long.
We are so predictable on offense it's almost laughable. The only time an LSU QB is going to be successful is when they can continuously convert 3rd and 6/7s. The last QB that could do that was Mett.

We will open up more as the season progresses. Harris has a live arm!

Harris had a decent game. I don't know why you want him to do with just 13 attempts. You can't claim he is struggling that would be dishonest. He had a 48 yard td pass called back and onecclear crucial catch calledc in incomplete. His play early allowed us to score as well on some critical 3rd down passes. He ran well as well.

The QBs lose confidence because Miles shows zero confidence in them. Imagine working for a boss that always assumed you were going to fail no matter how well you did when given a chance.

Harris didn't struggle. The offense eventually did because we ran-ran-passed or ran-ran-ran. How is it Harris' fault when running plays are called on third-and-8? State was able to jam the line and we started getting stopped for about 2 yards every run.
The one weak spot that might be attributable to Harris was throwing long into double coverage on third downs. But we don't know if that's his decision or if the play calls were to go deep.
LSU gave up on the intermediate passing game. Those screens are essentially handoffs and an extension of the running game, a poor choice when you've already got a defense with 9 and 10 in the box.

Yes. It's 100% the offense we run. And it's not just the QB who suffers, it's the entire offense. Just think what Fournette could do vs. a 6 man box instead of 7-8 every play. Just think of what our receivers could do if we went 4 wide, and ran 4-5 passing routes on a play instead of 2.
Our offense is one incredibly massive failure.

Given CLM relative success at this level, it's clear that he does a lot of things very well. Recruiting, conditioning, preparation, mentorship and leadership etc are obviously strong suits of the program.
Game day x's and o's and situational playcalling however...he's terrible. It was never really his strength in the first place, but he seems to be getting worse.
