No, we are just intelligent enough to realize 2024 wasnt nearly as good as fans like you think.
Name the other SEC QBs who have passed for over four thousand yards in a a season.
Now list the super receivers or O Linemen on the 24 team..

Hot shite some of you are ridiculous.

Yes it does because you either physically can’t throw downfield or put any zip on the ball.

They absolutely do impact decision making because maybe he felt like he couldn’t get the ball there on time down the field, even though it was wide open, forcing him to take the check down.

Wrong. Did you (and those of the same mind as you) have restricted airflow in the birth canal?
You guys are part of the logical evidence base that shows some vaccines cause autism.
quote:

Which makes you question whether or not you can even make the throws, and hesitant to attempt them… A DIRECT affect on your decision making.
Break a finger and the try to do things with that hand. Tell me you don’t start using the other hand more.

Yeah? In that situation as a QB, you’re not sure if you can make the throw over that distance. This isn’t rocket science.
Add that to the likelihood that the injury was accounted for in play calling to a certain degree, and y’all have your idea of the whole situation thrown out the window.

You may disagree because of the feel good story of Nuss coming back or sticking around, but if you objectively look at his SEC stats from last year, he was never as great as this board tried to make him.
I disagree because of the reality of the situation. He was injured enough to not even be able to throw the ball as hard as he did the year before.
And as for last year, he was a first year starter and still had really impressive stats for that to be the case.
I’m not sure where you guys hail from, but some of y’all have an IQ lower than a damn box of crayons.
Remember to wear your helmets to occupational therapy, fellas.
Holy shite.

You mean 4 of the 5 Oline that were drafted? Are you dumb?

You dont have to like him or be a fan to recognize he was extremely weaker throwing the ball this year over the prior season. Most agree and assume it was the injury but I suppose he could have just layed around for off season and got weaker. However, I dont buy that. He threw checkdowns for two reasons... 1. OL was trash and he did not want to get hit 2. He had great difficiulty throwing the ball more that 20 yds downfield.

You’ve never played major sports at any competitive level.
A core injury will affect the way you do almost anything.
If he didn’t feel he could torque his mid-section and get sufficient velocity, to throw a ball into a tight window, it would absolutely affect his decision making.
When throwing downfield his balls would float and not be precise…. Exactly what we saw all season.
Torn muscles, whether completely torn or partial tears take a LONG time to heal months, not weeks.
I’ve torn a bicep, and I’ve have grade 2 tears in a calf.
It’s not something that heals overnight.

Are you fricking stupid?
Don’t affect decision making?
Let’s see. You are a high level QB who is known as a gunslinger… suddenly you can’t drive through your throws, and you don’t have your normal velocity, suddenly you can’t stick the ball in tight windows where you normally could. Even in practice you notice it…
Your deep balls begin to sail because you can’t drive through it.
You go into a game knowing this…. Do you think you it doesn’t affect your decision making?

Something was obviously wrong, dude was slinging it like Brett Farve in that SEC championship game.
Moore was on the team from the TP, but he hadn't been put in the starting lineup at Center yet, so Chester was the Center.
The Semjase predicted "Shiteshow" materialized quickly in practice and Nuss got injured early on. (The injury lingered into the fall and he aggravated it again in Fall camp)
Even though Moore had been put in as the starting Center, the rest of the OL was a complete show of shite and could not block anybody. (Made even worse by the inept coaching of Brad "Sylvester" Davis)
It was the initiation of "Sylvester & Kardell's" and it destroyed Nussmeier's 2025 season.
Sylvester = Sylvester Croom.
Kardell = Kardell Thomas

He was injured but still took the 4M paycheck and gave half arse effort. What a great employee

Do you think Nuss was EVER affective throwing the deep ball? Heads up, he never has been. Sub 30% completion on throws over 25 yards INCLUDING 2024 season.
I mean, this year he:
1. Had a core injury which limits the torque needed to to throw deep (especially to the left).
2. Had a shite o line
3. Had a shite coaching staff
4. Had receivers with a lot of drops.
I get that you have a hard on for him, but the above list makes your take moronic.
You do you though.

Enlighten us to how you handled your core injury as a college QB.
Posted on 1/27/26 at 9:09 pm to Nix to Twillie
B.K. and Nuss have the same agent?

Then why the hell was he playing? And why did he all of a sudden not play after getting benched, except now it’s just so convenient.
Lol what?
He kept playing because our backup also sucked and Brian Kelly wanted him to keep playing
And he “all of a sudden” quit playing bc we lost so many games that it made no sense to keep rolling an injured qb out
Let me know if you have anymore questions

He had mental block post injury. His form was different on his release, it happens. Why BK continued to start him and not work reps with other QB’s, no clue. All I know, BT them two and the o line, I had many of choice words directed at them. Moving on.
Posted on 1/27/26 at 10:09 pm to Pauvetibete
He was throwing the ball 60 yards down the field as a true freshman but couldn’t do it at a 5th year senior. This year he couldn’t get any velocity on his throws. He only attempted a few deep balls all year and those were under thrown.
His injury took away his best qualities as a QB and LSU tried to compensate for his injury with a playbook full of poorly executed screen passes.

a core injury means he can't make downfield throws with any zip. we saw it all year from him. he didn't just, for no reason, forget how to throw the ball hard. couple that with a terrible offensive line (which everyone agrees with) and a terrible scheme (which everyone also agrees with), yeah Nuss not being good wasn't surprising
quote:
Why wouldnt Nuss blame his lack of production on the injury AFTER BK was fired. Literally a perfect opportunity to save face
because he's a team player and not a dick

His decision-making is his biggest issue (healthy or not). You can get away with not super-mobile in the NFL more than you can in college these days, but if you don't run much, you have to be very accurate and make fast, good decisions. His decision-making is still a big negative for him despite his arm talent when healthy.
I don't disagree with that but I think part of that was Nuss feeling like he had to take chances and carry the offense because we haven't been able to run the ball with our backs in years

If you watch Garrett throw a football anytime after he was 15 years old and then watch him throw a football last year and don't think he was injured then you literally don't know shite about ball.
