Good thing is he can get better at a couple of those. His physical limitations can’t be overcome which limits what we can do playcall wise. It’s up to the coaches to devise a plan to his strengths and work on the weaknesses. Let’s see how he progresses in week 2. Not overly confident but hopeful.

Agreed, and if he can fix 1,2 and 5 that would be huge in itself.

He doesn't really have poise in the pocket. His footwork is bad. He has tunnel vision. I hope to little baby Jesus that he improves, because otherwise we have to hope Linehan and E can develop two freshman, when LSU hasn't developed a QB for a long time.

Having a set of balls. That guy was scared to death when he was in the pocket.

Oh he can check down....that's what he did 90 percent of the day....especially the last drive.

He plays scared and timid.
Period.

It’s just crazy how this board turns on a player so fast...... some of you are the worst fans in the country.....

Blame who should be blamed.... the coaches.....

I would add possibly the most damning one: -the ability to lead. He doesn’t have the intangibles. He displayed a weak, defeated body language all game.

Coaches have the responsibility to adapt the offense to the QB and abilities of the other players.

The option handoff does not work if the QB is not athletic enough to effectively run the ball.

Toughness. Dude is soft. He is afraid of contact and that keeps him from keeping his focus down field. To me, this is the biggest issue and I don't see it being fixed during the season. Hope I'm wrong.
