We have you bookmarked, We get it.

Nuss is hands downs the best because of what you saw in this spring game.
Did you ever stop and think that perhaps the other QB's just had a off day? Do you think QB's can have their worst day or best day at any time? Do you think study and practices are useless in determining starters? Could we maybe just skip practices and just play spring games?

Kelly never talks about that ever. You're making it up.

The only time he talked about it is when Shea Dixon asked him about Nuss being prone to making mistakes during the post spring game press confernence, which is only imagined by MB homers, and Kelly turned it around on Dixon by saying everybody, including Kelly himself makes mistakes, but that Dixon is the only person in the room who never make mistakes. As Kelly was obviously peeved that Dixon would ask such an absurd question.

Then he said with someone as talented and as confident as Nussmeier is, the last thing you want to do is over coach him. Just make sure he understand that he needs to protect the football and then he is good to go.

Meanwhile, what Kelly alludes to every time he talks about Nuss is that he is extremely talented and very confident.

That doesn't even make sense. What are you smoking?

Dont forget he threw 3 picks in his first spring game. You cant coach the gunslinger out of most QBs


We are not talking about what happened last year when he had just arrived on campus and who cares since it isn't relevant anymore? Meanwhile, Nuss is a gunslinger of the good kind. Hence, why would anyone want to coach that out of a future first round talent like Nussmeier? Are you on hard drugs?

Let me stop you right there. No one gives two shits about a spring game. Absolutely irrelevant. It’s about as relevant as going in against ULM and passing for 400.


You're only saying that because the guy you emotionally attached yourself to didn't do so well. Nonetheless, Brian Kelly said that he intentionally made the spring game as game like as possible so he could see, as he said, which of the QBs would perform under game like conditions the best, and he definitely saw who the best performer was and it wasn't your guy.

Brennan has been through this stage and is Big Game ready, I think he is going to light it up this year.


Really, what exactly has Brennan done to separate himself away from the other QBs to make him worthy of being named the starter?

Just had an off day? If they had an off day on a day when they are supposed to shine, then they will have an off day on days they are always supposed to shine because they crater under pressure.

In fact, Brian Kelly said the reason why he made the spring game as game like as possible was so he could see which of the QBs would perform the best under game like conditions and man, did he ever see that.

quote:

Do you think QB's can have their worst day or best day at any time?


Imagine had Joe Burrow had his worst days against Alabama, UGA, Oklahoma, and Clemson. You got to be out of your freaking mind!

If a QB can't stand the heat, then he needs to get the hell out of the kitchen.

Of course not, but by all accounts, Nuss was easily the best and most consistent QB throughout all 15 spring practices and he also threw far less picks relative to the other QBs at the same time.

So we bench Nuss if he has a bad day when he is suppose to shine.

Bookmarked

Nuss doesn't have bad days. He was raised by his NFL QB coach dad to love football. So every time he has the opportunity to play, he always shines and in which is the way he earned his way to LSU.

Good QBs don't have bad days. Only bad QBs have bad days.

Obviously, your mother dropped you on your head when you were a little baby and you never recovered. Oh well.

Lol, what??

Here's a bit from an article on Tom Brady after facing the Saints a couple years ago:

quote:

There's coming back to earth, then there's Tom Brady's shockingly bad Week 9 performance against the Saints.

Brady played one of his worst games ever Sunday night, throwing three interceptions in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 38-3 blowout loss to New Orleans.

The 35-point loss was the worst defeat of Brady's 20-year career, and his 40.4 passer rating was his third-worst in 294 regular-season games.


Here was the former New England Patriots QB's final stat line:

22 for 38, 209 passing yards, 0 TDs, 3 INTs, 40.4 passer rating

The only thing I'm invested in moron is the best QB being named the starter. While those MB homers like you have all emotionally attached themselves to MB and at the same time totally detached themselves from reality.

As you MB homers don't care about the best QB being named the starter. All you MB homers care about is MB being named the starter because you MB homers all believe he is owed and entitled to be named the starter and so what if it costs LSU two or three losses, that's just part of the deal.

Never know how to interpret spring games. I’ve seen Brandon Harris look elite and Joe Burrow look average in spring games. I err on the view that they’re meaningless

Ironically, Joe B. Did shine above the others in OSU’s spring games. Had Urban given his performances there the credit it clearly deserved, the Buckeyes probably would have had another national championship.
No one wants to lose “the one that got away” because of a coach is too loyal to a clearly lesser option.

Yes, you also don’t always know what the individual players are working on. Coach Kelly talked about how they were working on jayden Daniel’s throwing mechanics, which I’m certain led to some inaccuracy. It’s cool to get hyped about players and stuff, but the spring game has never really been telling of future success. The starter gets named in the fall for a reason.

He threw it into the hands of a d-lineman on a broken play in the 1st, fortunately the deflection went nowhere. He threw what probably should have been a pick 6 in the second quarter that the defender dropped. He threw it to I believe it was ward in the 3rd quarter, but he didn’t hang on to it.
