TJ makes good decisions

I don’t get nervous with his choices...still has room to improve but decision-making is solid and that is a huge deal.
I also was glad to see virtually no designed runs called for him...he is not a runner.

Agree with you on his decision making, and he has decent footwork and mobility in the pocket. But damn he just can't run at all. Wonder what his 40 time is.

If he just wouldn’t insist on hiding it from us.

I do like that he is very aware where the LOS is. He is good at looking downfield and moving around just enough to make gold throws. The holding penalties hurt us today on ones where he moved around and made big throws.
I sometimes forget he doesn’t have the LOS line on the field like we have on the TV
Just wish he had a bit more touch. It’s always a fastball

I would actually argue that his patience is what is more impressive. He isn’t rattled from playing in the big leagues and it has him more settled in his choices

Finley looks like Vince Young in the '03 season.

I agree on his decision making. Very impressive. That being said, in todays game you have to have a mobile qb if you want to beat the elite teams and compete for the playoffs. If we want to win a national championship the only qb currently on campus to get us there is Max Johnson. TJ and Brennan are no better than 10-2 or 9-3 qbs because of their mobility issues.

He had lots of time - they were rushing 3 a lot and their DLine was patchwork. Hopefully he can also make QUICK good decisions when we play the likes of FL and AL.

Anyone who calls a play that has TJ running the ball should lose their position of play calling.
For a Freshman, TJ has played extremely well.
The future is bright at QB.

He needs to make a good decision to add touch to his passes. Everything off his hand is a bullet. That alone takes the underneath and deep routes out of his arsenal. Now the intermediate routes, where you want a strike, he’s been quite good with.

We need a little more firepower to win games. The D is not going to help much. We need 40+ pts. per game to have a chance against a decent team

he's solid with room to improve. lots of potential

He reminds me very much of Rohan davey. Davey took a couple years to get it down pat, but once he did, he was unstoppable. Finley is actually ahead of davey as a freshman

It amazes me what short memories you guys have. Did he make good decisions against Auburn? What was the difference? Did he suddenly get smarter or mature incredibly fast? No, I think it might have been that Arkansas's starting defensive line was out with covid. Therefore they had almost no rush on the passer and TJ had all day to throw the ball.
Florida and Alabama will be more like Auburn than Arkansas. Let's see how good his decisions are when they are coming after him every play and making him run for his life. Will he just take his sacks or will he start getting desperate and panic and make big mistakes. If he survives those two with good performances then I will jump on the bandwagon with you but a season is more than one game against an opponent who is short handed.

His poise is great. His pocket movement is advanced. His arm is unreal.
However, he throws into heavy coverage and he needs to know when to take a little off. Clearly his accuracy can improve.
He'll be VERY good when its his time.

We should all be thankful that we have a very talented, capable Freshman QB.
I am also thankful that I don’t have to read the idiotic comments claiming that “he’s not ready” or “in a couple years he’ll be ready”, etc., etc.
LSUs ride the pine for 2-3 yr QB strategy does not, has not, and will not be successful as we’ve proven over and over and over again.
