Etling has passed to the TE's 20% of his passes so far. That's double what Harris did last year and much more than any QB since Flynn


That's not true. DeSean broke a long one and the TEs account for 20% of his total yards, but he's not looking their way any more than Harris did.

I think it's that he's hitting the check downs more so we just perceive that the TE is more involved. I'm just happy that we are getting the ball to LF and Guice out of the backfield. Those guys should be good for 2 to 3 first downs a game catching the ball. Etling's strength seems to be progression to the open guy and that's all LSU needs. I think a lot of that has to do with his ability to read the defense presnap. He knows who his primary guy should be based on the defense he sees.
