re: Let’s look back at what some LSU “fans” thought about a Heisman winner returning

Not as much as the loser who feels the need to go back and find these

Nah. If you can say it, you should own it.

It really depends on what you’re looking at. His passing was what drove people nuts. Passing is kind of important for a QB. Dink and dunks, tuck and runs, underthrown deep balls, and throwing behind receivers in stride isn’t nearly as impressive as what we saw this year. He could’ve changed his name and most of us would have believed he was a different player.

Name a better first year starter at LSU? If we had 2022 Jayden Daniels instead of Matt Flynn in 07, we go undefeated.

Daniels was behind a horrific OL and scrambled a lot because of it. An NFL draft scout gushed over Daniels saying 35 of his 40 passing TDs were inside the pocket, and that was the most by any QB in the country by a mile. Another talked about his insane threat as a rusher when they stated it was something like 85-90% of his rushing came on scrambles and not designed runs. Stating that these runs were not because of not reading a defense, but running when they play was covered or pass rushers broke through, or when there were open opportunities.

It was stated before he got here by his mother on an interview that one of the reasons he started to run a lot at at ASU was because of how bad the OL was. He's not a big dude, and taking hits in the pocket like Shaduer has this season will not keep you healthy for long.

LSU beats FSU last year if we go for 2 or don't have a billion self inflicted special teams problems. LSU beats TAMU last year if WRs could catch and the defense didn't give up 200 yards to a RB coming off injury and letting a true freshman QB cook with a WR who has done barely anything this 2023 season. LSU beats Ole Miss this season if the defense wasn't trash, OR one of his three TD passes that were dropped, were caught.

Out of every single loss LSU has had over the past 2 years, i can barely fault him for any. UGA loss, we were doomed with his ankle injury prior to the game. Tennessee game was bad all around and he played no worse than anybody else. TAMU i blame defense. Both times vs FSU, the entire team was trash and even though he missed some guys in 2023, when he was hitting them, they dropped passes. We had 5 drops in that game. We were without our 4 leading RBs in that game. OL was getting raped in that game, defense was trash in that game. We were only in the Bama game because of him. You know the Ole Miss problems.

Only thing I can agree with is that the defense bailed us out of the Auburn and Arkansas games last year. Both of his performances those game were terrible, I admit, but that's it. Burrow also had some horrific games his first year here. The great thing is that he never put us in a bind with a bunch of turnovers in a game. He has turned the ball over only 11 total times in 2 years. That is one of, if not the best, turnover rates in the country at QB over the past 2 years.
