re: Leavitt back-pedaling on throws is slightly concerning

We’ve never had a QB like him so I’m just telling you get used to how he plays. He’s gonna scare the shite out of the tight wad fans because he plays with his hair on fire but he’s going to make a bunch of big plays. Just don’t expect the year 2 polish of a jD4+1 or Mett or Jamarcus, that’s not what this guy is. He’s Manziel or for old heads the OG Archie Manning. Thats how he plays the game.

I don’t know what these people are watching or, who they’re listening to is probably more to the point, but the DTs played really well. We were on the other side of the LOS all night, I think we caused a negative play on around 25% of Clemson’s snaps and if you count incompletions as a negative play it was over 39% which is unreal.

I don't remember him backpedalling at all.

He made some risky throws and some that needed better placement, but I don't remember anything wrong with his footwork.

Bottom line, his passing will get better. He'll see the field better. But the guy is an automatic 8+ yards when he decides to go. Going to be a lot of long high play drives. Gives the defense time to do what they did Saturday

a big problem is being ultra dramatic.

They were decent, ate up blockers and allowed the badass LBs and safeties to make plays.

That IS blake bakers defense.

Only time I was really concerned about it was the long throw to Winnie, it looked like he was falling backwards, but it honestly couldn't have been a more perfect throw.

I am in full agreement with your concerns. Those bad habits could be very costly for LSU at a very critical time. ....but may it never be!
