He happens to throw a lot of low balls. He has to tighten his delivery and give a more catchable for YAC.

Some have an unnatural throwing motion. The ball doesn’t come out quickly. From watching Max, I’d say he isn’t an exception. It’s like he has to wind up to get rid of the ball.

Steve Young, Ken Stabler, Boomer Esiason, Mark Brunell, Vick. They are legit lefty qbs. Max isn't one of them

Tebow, Leinart, Vick were weak passers. Receivers often complained about Young and Esiason throwing balls that weren’t “catchable”. Tua heaves the ball and relies on receivers so your examples are not really great. Left handed quarterbacks are the devil.

He’s a sophomore and I’ve seen freshmen better than him.

He’s bad. Will never see the field again after this year.

We run a pass first spread offense. There’s much more responsibility on a QBs shoulders in this type of system.

Well sure it’s relevant, if O is coaching for his job he can’t afford to wait around while Max goes through growing pains. If things don’t pickup he’ll have to look for a spark at the position.

In the spring I would have bet money Max was better than Myles but after watching the slight regression I’m starting to think Myles would have won the job.

One of the scoring plays last week was max rolling to right throwing to a receiver crossing right. Max has stop and hitch to throw that pass. It was a touchdown last weekend, but a SEC Safety watching for that will intercept that pass.

I don't think so.
However, that may be the reason receivers dropped Nuss's passes. According to receivers, catching a pass from a lefty is different from a right hander.
They were familiar with Johnson but didn't make the mental adjustment for Nuss.

Didn't matter to Ken Stabler, Boomer Esiason, or Steve Young.....
