Daniels can make all the throws,
Agree. He just does not make "all the throws" like multiple ones that Nuss did.

Yes it he will get it just let him get to 50+ starts. Come on guys have some patience.

It means you can’t say we wouldn’t have won without him when other QBs wouldn’t have even needed to use their legs to get the job done

The people on here who think that Daniels is going improve and be a better qb next year are insane

Not sure that can be 'fixed' - there is no time to 'remember strategies' especially when the mechanics are not there.
I admire what JD has done, but I still think we'd be in a better position for next year had we allowed Nuss to gain 10 games of experience this year.

its not about ability
I dunno - I have seen very few 'beautiful' throws that hit the receiver in stride or into a very tight window.
Many of his completions this year the receiver had to break the route to get to the ball.
I'm no expert, but it just doesn't 'look' like a great qb pass.

This is actually the question I was trying to get to. Not sure why you think a college football player can't get better. If he does not improve, coaches should be able to see that and Nuss is the starter. If not, JD is the starter.

Everyone is talking about Nuss, but JD threw some pretty nice passes before he came out.
Daniels has a serious issue throwing the ball downfield. It seems to be mental in nature. Kelly has been pushing him to let it fly but he does not do it. Most of the passes you were referencing were short timing routes that any QB should be able to throw.

Overreact much? Did JB ever turn the ball over 2 times in a half?

He wasn't terrible but his refusal to throw deep is an issue.
He also takes***** too long to commit ********making a lot of the deep throws he makes late
Then people bitch about a very talented young OL not giving him time to pass. But JD is better than I gave him credit for, he should be very motivated to improve. There is a lot of money on the line for him in the draft.

Almost all his throws aren’t on time because he waits to see if they’re wiiiddddee open and by then the window of opportunity has totally closed or the defender has made up ground and is in position to defend the catch, which will lead to an incomplete. The JD supporters will tell you that was a dropped ball. Well, if he knew what the hell he was doing in pre and post snap reads a lot of those could have been easy catches had he thrown “ on time “.

Well I'm a JD supporter, I just see that he has to improve on things.
Are you suggesting there were no dropped balls by recievers? If so your just as bad as those JD supporters you speak of because there were definite dropped balls on many occasions this season. Lacy had 2 obvious drops killing 2 drives against A&M. Boutte had quite a few this year.
That's the issue with many, it has to be either or, both things are true. JD needs improvement and the recievers dropped alot of passes.

Too little too late.

I think people were just more impressed with how he was able to come in after JD5’s energy and light it up.
No one is taking anything away from Daniels. I thought he made some good decisions and good throws.
His deep ball is horrible though.

No insinuation that there were no dropped balls but when there are highly contested balls without being caught, sometimes that's not just on the receiver, that's my point. A few on here try to make it seem it's all the receiver's fault and it's not. Many things factor in to it. There were easy, catchable balls that were dropped, at the same time there were highly contested balls that weren't caught that people called drops and that's just not true and if JD would have made better reads and quicker decisions in some instances, those highly contested balls become easy completions. That's the point of my post.

quote:This is the whole reason that he started. CBK knew the offensive line would get a drop-back guy like Nuss killed until they developed, which they did over the course of the season. So he started JD in order to mask that issue (although he still got sacked 40+ times). It worked perfectly until the last couple of games in the season, when JD just looked terrified to throw the ball & could no longer beat teams with his legs.
JD won us some games we should not have won with his legs this year
