re: Nuss as a starter would have thrown 19 INTs

I’d take 19 picks and seven wins which equals a bowl game in exchange for the experience he would have gained

Stupid take OP

This is dumb based upon you have no way to back upon your opinion, but I will give you this you are not as stupid as the poster below you.

I think you are right, except we would have gone 5-7 with Nuss. He is one dimensional. Walker is the truth. JD should be his mentor.

Nuss has some big pluses over JD like strong arm, fast release, seems to check down receivers well and has confidence to throw the ball. But, he is not ready from a maturity standpoint. He wants every play to be a big play.

Football is about execution. A play has a blueprint and if all 11 players execute as designed it succeeds. Same on defense. It boils down to which side executed best. That has to be the mindset. Execution not result. Nuss is approaching each play as wanting a particular result and not trying to execute as coached.

This is the difference between successful coaches and players and arm chair coaches on TD.

Burrow practiced execution all summer with his receivers and their execution led to a national championship.

I noticed that although Nuss’s passes were crisp for the most part his timing on the long routes is off. He simply needs to work on execution and stop trying to make big plays.

You don’t work on this sort of stuff during games. If you did you have a losing season but can say look how much Nuss has learned. You work on this behind the scene’s and when Nuss is ready you move him into action.

Winning at this level is not a Hollywood movie where the hero comes in to save the day. It’s teaching fundamentals, execution and executing better than your opponent.

You don’t throw pics you take pics, however sometimes QBs do throw picks
