You must hang around with some special people.

Losers, in my neighborhood don't sign four million dollar contracts.

His stats after his first game were similar to first round draft picks.
What is the negativity in that.
He performed better than Fields. Fields has been an NFL starter

Nuss is on a good team, playing behind a QB who is nearing the end of his career. His Coach has a great offensive mind.
The opportunity is there. It beats playing for Kelly.

They ran different offenses, dumbass.

Nuss put a deep ball in a WR's hands that would have been a 94 yard TD but the WR dropped it.

Say you didn't watch the game without saying it.


He's basically already admitted that he only read the stat sheet.

That depends on what you mean by "good".
If you're setting the bar so high that no LSU QB has reached it as a first-season starter, then what does it really mean?
He had a higher QBR in SEC games than Burrow and Daniels did in their first seasons starting in the SEC.

QBR in SEC Games, (Average Per Game)

Burrow (2018) - 77.6, 93.1, 51.4, 83.3, 49.7, 40.6, 65.9, 94.2, (69.5)
Daniels (2022) - 64.1, 60.9, 53.1, 93.6, 86.8, 85.4, 10.1, 78.2, 73.1, (67.3)
Nussmeier (2024) - 76.8, 75.8, 80.9, 67.1, 55.7, 66.4, 84.6, 87.3, (74.3)


The defenses are factored into that QBR formula. If you break it down by YPG ranking of the defenses, Burrow had the highest ranked SEC slate, highlighted by Mississippi State at #1 with Simmons and Abram. Average final ranking of SEC opponent defenses was 40.9.
Daniels had the lowest ranked slate. Average ranking of 63.9, highlighted by Georgia in the SECCG. Nussmeier had a better 2nd half in that game.
Nussmeier had the most games against top 25 defenses at 4. Average ranking of 44.5.

Reid usually keeps 3 QBs. Two active and an emergency QB on the practice roster.
So exactly as the poster said, he is basically auditioning for free agency. He doesn’t want to be on a practice roster, he wants a team to take him from that on their actual 53 man roster

No, the coaching staff cares about preseason performance.

Stats are for phaggots.

Andy Reid, you know a GREAT QB coach who moved up to take a guy named Patrick Mahommes 15 (I believe) after LSU beat the brakes off of him and his team, on Nuss:

Watch out Lester the stats Earl is gonna come in and squeal like a pig quoting this and that.
Funny how the OC matters. I mean Joe Sloan was far better an OC that Joe Brady/ Ensminger and Mike Denbrock in 2023. Also, Brian Thomas Jr was just an average player as were Malik Nabers and Maason Taylor, Jamaar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Terrace Marshall Jr and Caeah at RB.
The scheme doesn’t matter at all in college football.

So you obviously didn’t go to any of our games in 2024 with a healthy Nuss throwing the ball all over the field

I only saw like 4 of his plays. But on one of them, he ran backwards 10 yards into a sack and got up limping. I had to check the channel to make sure I wasn’t watching an LSU replay from last season.

I don’t think so. I think it’s that many have come to grips that his talents and abilities did not live up to expectations.
While he was surely hamstrung by poor coaching, terrible scheme, etc all compounded by injury, he shoulders (perhaps unfairly) the disappointment of a failed season.

I actually thought he looked pretty good yesterday. The Chiefs didn't seem to be moving the ball too much until he came in. The O line didn't do him any favors. I came here to see LSU fan reactions and am surprised at the negativity towards him. Tough crowd I guess.

Come again?

You said Reid will put Nuss on the practice squad. That absolutely means Nuss is showcasing for other teams right now more than the Chiefs…
