Denbrocks Offense didn’t look like this at Cincinnati…

Stats:

Passing: 241 Ypg, 2 TD, 64% completion percentage

Rushing: 179 Ypg, 5.3 Ypc, 2 Tds

I really wanted to blame Denbrock for the lack of a passing attack but I don’t think he just lost the ability to call plays in the span of a year. I think Jayden is the problem here and if he can’t figure out soon Kelly gonna have to pull him or go down without a fight letting Jayden stall drives.

Agreed! Cincy had a solid QB. So, that’s essentially the huge difference. Without a consistent QB how good or how bad an OC is becomes way more skewed.

Unfortunately, JD might be our best option right now and in the foreseeable future. I say this in terms of overall ability to try and manage without costly turnovers. BK certainly knows we have a razor thin margin for turnovers when it comes to playing solid teams.

Since this is year 1, it makes sense to be even more conservative than what he is accustomed to. Frankly, I just don’t think we will see the “true” offensive play calling until year 2.

Are you telling me it's not Denbrock, it's Daniels...do you not see all the people on the Rant saying Denbrock sucks. Man, you're an outside-the-box guy.

Funny how you recruit a coordinator that's done pretty well and all of a sudden he's terrible. Not the fact that your new QB can't make a 5-10 yard out/crossing route or slant pass to save his life.

Sure would be nice to give Nuss a shot instead of the typical, "Hey go in there real quick and put together a TD drive from deep in our own territory cause our running QB doesn't know how to slide." And I'm saying a shot with a full week of practice with the 1's and significant attention to him knowing he will start, instead of coming off the bench.

You won’t see it year 2 if you have the same quarterback. Skill set will be the same.

What happened when DumbRock actually played a real team last year in the playoffs?
AL crushed him -
218 total yards of offense.

They both are. If JD can't do certain things, Denbrock has to change the offense and tailor it to what he can do.

Correct, being limited at Qb is a lot of the problem.

Agreed, but I don’t see JD as our QB next year.

I think we’re going to see more of Nuss because Daniels is dinged up. If he won’t let the ball fly he has to be full speed to be an effective runner. If he can’t run and is scared to throw downfield the offense won’t be able to move the ball at all.

So we are basically playing not to lose by starting Daniels. I'd rather that Kelly take a chance and give Nuss and Howard some valuable experience. We knew going into this season that we weren't winning the SEC or going to the playoffs, so why not use this season to prepare for the next?

He was at a significant talent disadvantage. Also they had a wide open td batted down at the Line and another dropped TD pass. That game could’ve been a one possession game in the 4th if the players could execute

His scheme didn’t look like hot dog water with ridder at QB.

Needs to adjust and have more slants/crosses with WRs instead of sending them on deep out routes. Go more up tempo as well.

1st year for All LSU QBs in this system. Give it some time I expect better QB play next year from whoever is the starter. LSU is basically rebuilding had to take all the bad apples out of program and we had what 39 scholarship players. We are doing better than I expect, it isn't pretty but I will take a ugly win. We will be better at QB next year and other positions also.

How many snaps did they take in 2 TE sets in Cincy because that’s what Denbrock has been trying to do here the first 4 games.

Last year one of their TEs had the 2nd most receiving TDs on the team.
