My take on LSUs passing struggles

We always want to look at the receivers and QBs, but our O line just doesn't look like a good pass blocking line. I'm sure in practice the emphasis is on run blocking, but we need to get the pass blocking on the same level as run blocking.
There's no reason a 3 and 4 man rush should put pressure on Brandon when we have the line that we do. If he has time to sit and look at his receivers, he won't have to make all these throws on the run. And it would also give the receivers a chance to break off their guy and get more open.
Brandon played great, don't get me wrong, but if he had better protection he would be even better.

I didn't see enough passing struggles to make a thread about it but if you need to have a scapegoat then look no further than the receivers that dropped balls today.

Hopefully they can work on upping the passing game when LSU meets stiffer competition .... Especially when you, I, the crowd know other teams will key on Fournette...

They do so much run blocking I'm hard pressed to think pass blocking is an adjustment. Also, the more receivers get the timing down, the less time Harris will need in the pocket.

They need a lot of work on pass blocking. However, when we needed to pass to give us some breathing room, we executed. And that is the biggest thing - knowing we can if necessary.

They had one or two bad plays in protection. The only negative about the passing game was receivers dropping passes. Harris hit them in both hands on all but maybe two throws, and they dropped some big gains out there. Other than that the o line protected well overall, and Harris was on point. O line killed us with penalties.

Did you mean to title this LSU's dropped passes? Because the QB is not struggling for the most part.

My take, the receivers dropped catchable balls today.

well our wrs do drop at least 3 to 4 a game. Diarse dropped 3 by himself today
Posted on 9/26/15 at 8:17 pm to WilliamTaylor21
I'm more worried about penalties, this was a big issue today.

where is our short-to-intermediate passing game? do we have one? and catch the fricking ball.
Posted on 9/26/15 at 9:19 pm to WilliamTaylor21
The current stable of great receivers and any future receiver recruits will get tired of just running routes and blocking.

I believe your point is valid, and it's obvious that Harris will be better with better pass protection. With that said, the fact that he hasn't thrown an interception through 3 games is a great sign, even if he hasn't thrown but roughly 50 passes.

I didn't see any passing struggles. I saw some WRs who need to secure the catch.

Passing game would be solid if not for all the drops.
