Terrible take, your reasoning sucks too.

All of those things he’s entirely capable or improving.

Bad decisions and panicking is two different things. He had no damn reason to panic, he was only rushed maybe 5 times all game?

It’s easy to think this given the success they’ve had this year. But even when things work out, his mechanics are still horrible especially regarding back foot throws.

JD5 and Burrow also had TWO first round WRs each.

Lacy is our best WR and he’s not on the level of a Malik, BTJ, Chase, or Jets

I clearly mentioned that in my OP, I’m strictly talking about his mechanics and decision making.

This, both Sloan and Nuss are hard headed or just way in over their heads


I think Nuss needs to have his feet held to the fire

Needs to know that even if he won the Ole Miss game his lack of instinct to run when it’s open is still a problem. Arkansas too.

His bad playing finally caught up to him and he couldn’t save it by throwing a few dimes.

I’m also aware that the WR’s have made numerous drops, often at critical points in the game and that they may not be quite as talented as previous WR groups

Both Burrow and Daniels utilized their legs. What's the point of running zone reads and RPOs if QB refuses to run?

What’s the point of posting about RPO’s if you still have no idea what an RPO is?

A lot easier to fix than terrible mechanics.


don't know who is responsible for Daniels' transformation but it was awesome, not saying Nuss is a bust but I don't think I've seen him make a throw yet where has feet are set and he uses proper form, maybe because of watching Daniels? who knows but they're two different types of athletes, Nuss' old man is probably interfering too

Dude has been mentioned in the heisman race most of the year and is in the first round in most mock drafts. Knee jerk overreactions are y’all specialty. They lost this game because lsu can not run the ball!

while correct it is only one of multiple reasons they loss. Every thread I read last night and today highlights what we all know are the deficiencies.

The real issue is why at this stage of the season has BK allowed us to reach this point of implosion.

well either our WR's aren't elite, or the routes are of poor design, because our WR's are rarely wide open and mostly barely open, if that. They are nothing like we have had with all the greats in the last several years, but not many are. They are a solid group (last night they had the dropsies several times) but A&M was all over them for most of the night, and there was little separation. Throw in the fact that in the second half our OL couldn't block 4 men rushing the passer. I don't have the answer, but I am beginning to think the WR's just aren't open because they aren't elite, mixed with bad route designs. Nuss running the ball would most likely make them play honest instead of dropping into coverage. He HAS to do that, or we (he) has no chance. I keep hoping he will start running, but old habits are hard to break in the heat of the moment I guess.

we watched an entirely different game then....because in that second half it was like the damn broke, and mostly just with 4 DL rushing. The OL was pathetic last night, and Nuss sure as hell didn't help himself by running the football. He could have kept running it all night with big gains and that would have stopped the massive rushing......but he just will not do it and that is costing us and costing him.

2022 Daniels seemed timid at times to let it rip and often held the ball too long. But like 2018 Burrow, he seemed poised with good mechanics.


Daniels issue was not being willing to let the ball go deep. He is the opposite of Nuss. His goal always was to avoid the turnover.

Nuss cares too much about making the big play when there is nothing there and costs his team with turnovers. Most of his INTs aren’t great plays by the defense or bad luck. They are straight up atrocious decisions that are entirely his selfish play.

You aren’t coaching that out of him 4 years in. Had he been a RS frosh starting for the first time, fine, but not a RS junior.

LMAO what an idiot. JB was 4 years in too, and was projected a 6th to 7th round draft pick after his first year starting because he wasn't that good. There is a big difference between playing and not playing, it is called game experience. What an idiot you are. I'm not even defending Nuss here, but this is an insane take as if Nuss has been starting 4 years.

Burrows had Brady and Daniels was just unreal. Nuss has Sloan. Nuff said

Last night the first interception was bad. The last 2 were good plays by the defenders. One where the defender baited him into throwing it, which that comes with experience. The last one, the defender saw the OL crumble and defenders all over nuss and knew he was going to dump it to the back. Nuss never saw him. It was a very good play by the defender to anticipate that......but you have already made up your mind....you know much better than all the anlaysts and coaches like Saban and Herstreit, and all the scouts that have him in the first round.
