re: Max is not the problem people.

Boutte, Palmer, and Bech are your weapons on offense. That's 60% of what LSU needs with the skill positions w/ a QB with 4 starts. Max played fine last night. It could be better sure but no running game and mixing in a few key drops is why the results look like they do. Jenkins ain't it at WR. His drops in the first half killed momentum. If he catches the ball they score more and put the game away a lot quicker. The sacks last night were due to 3/5 starters being out on OL. LSU has to have a playmaker at RB. TDP isn't getting it done. Maybe Emory can come back and be the answer, if not maybe one of the freshman, but they're miles behind where they need to be at RB. I think the defense made strides last night but we'll find out more when they travel to MOO U. The offense I still think can improve to be a threat if Bech gets all the meaningful reps at TE, somebody else emerges as a sure handed WR outside of Palmer and Boutte, we find a RB, and the QB run is put into the offense to help out the o-line and RB's. I realize LSU doesn't have QB depth at the moment but the run game would greatly benefit if there was a threat of the QB pulling the ball and threatening the edge. Tell him to slide or run out of bounds but we need to see more of it.
