I could give two fricks about being right, I want to win. I'd love nothing more than to be wrong as frick about JD and for him to be Burrow 2.0 the rest of the year and Nuss to never touch the field. I promise you, NOTHING would make me happier.
But I see what's there, while it seems like the majority of the fans on this board seem to think that being a fan of the team means blindly supporting the current guy and pretending he's better than he is. Our greatest strength as a team is negated by Daniels being the starter, that's the problem. It's caps our ceiling as a team. That is gonna show when we're playing top 10 teams week after week.
Again, I pray I'm wrong. I really do.

100% bullshite. You are pushing a fricking agenda based on personal biases, for whatever reason. It’s obvious to anyone reading your bullshite posts.

We beat a good SEC team with Daniels last week. He’s not perfect, but he’s not the liability you think he is.
We beat a decent SEC, I'm talking about the good ones.
I think we can beat Florida Auburn and maaaaybe A&M with JD.
We're not beating Tennessee, Ole Miss, Bama or Arkansas with JD though. And if we got to play Georgia, obviously they would push our shite in.
Those are the teams I'm talking about competing with and that's like half our remaining games.

You can think whatever you want to. To say that I would rather LSU lose than watch JD play like an actual QB is laughable. I just want someone who can throw the ball down the field, use the middle of the field, go past the first read, throw guys open etc... JD ain't that guy. He hasnt made one anticipation throw all year. Nuss has the ability to be that guy. He made mutliple anticipation passes tonight alone.
He's a more talented passer, he's just less experienced and less explosive as a runner. I would rather have a guy who can slice up a defense with his arm and get it to our elite WRs. That's not an agenda, that's common fricking sense.
But you're a better fan than me for supporting an average QB or whatever.

I guess you missed UT’s defense letting Anthony Richardson look like a real QB today. Do you really think Daniels will have any problems moving the ball on them, either? We just have to get some stops and avoid turnovers to stay in that game.
Ole Miss struggled with Tulsa today and has to lean heavily on their run game because Matt Corral is long gone and their two QBs are just good, but they aren’t him. They are a good team, but they aren’t great by any stretch.
Did you watch Arkansas today? If you can slow their run game down (which we were able to do last season), their their offense grinds to a halt.
Out of your list, UT’s offense makes them a real challenge, but Bama is the only great team. Arkansas and Ole Miss aren’t going to be in the Top 10 like you think when we play them. Hell, Arkansas may be out of the Top 25 by then.

I support him because:
- I actually trust this staff to make the right call on who is the best QB for right now. You obviously don’t.
- I’ve seen plenty of evidence that Nuss still has the capability of being a terrible decision maker and turnover machine. Some of that came just two weeks ago against the equivalent of a D2 team.
- Daniels has a massive advantage in starting experience. That isn’t insignificant, especially for SEC road games.
- When the pressure ramps up, Daniels plays better. He was bad at times vs both FSU and State, but the tighter the games got in those 2nd halves, the better he played. You can dismiss that but I certainly don’t.
- The only game when Nuss played starter’s minutes, he was terrible and never got into a groove. I am no fan of Max Johnson, but we likely would have beaten Arkansas last year with him at QB just playing his normal game last year.
- Daniels’ running ability is something that defensive coordinators have to take account of on every play. I don’t want him running as much as he has before tonight, but you can’t deny that it’s a weapon that helps make up for some of the struggles we’ve had getting a traditional run game going vs P5 opponents.
We need Daniels to improve as a passer, but he’s the best fit for this team today. If nothing else, I’ll take the staff’s word on that. If that changes as some point and Nuss is given the starter’s job, I’ll support him because he’s the QB of my team. I don’t play favorites for whatever reason has you all wrapped up.

Interesting how you leave out his last performance. He has a stronger arm, I'll agree with you there. But go back to the previous sentence.
I'm not trying to drag the kid through the mud but if you're bringing up "common sense," who would you start? A kid who has started many collegiate games, has thrown NO ints this season (pretty sure I'm correct on that) or a kid who played in 4 last season and two this season, threw two terrible interceptions in his last game.
G played better tonight but to imply that he is the guy..... while cherry picking what suits your narrative or argument without looking at it as a whole, is disingenuous and not being realistic.
G improved, Daniels continues to improve. Why some of you knuckleheads have to tear down the starting QB because he's not your boy, is crazy to me.
Both are talented, both will improve. It's a good thing.

Our fanbase is dumb as hell. He looked similar to Southern game outside of the two disastrous picks. Jayden is still the starter but he can be good for us.

He looked good which was FAR better than he looked against Southern. Fantastic is a description reserved for a top level performance against a top tier team. Hoping he continues to progress.
Posted on 9/25/22 at 6:32 am to SMD
Nuss improved on the performance from southern, it’s what you want to see. He did all the things BK asked him to do.
On the JD side, I’ve never seen a qb that completes 82% of his passes get dragged like this board will do. He has improved every game and made a conscious effort to stay in the pocket and make throws. The guy protects the ball extremely well and doesn’t hurt the defense.
This was a true team win all around, not the Ed O all star type teams just trying to put up stats.

I am. The offense moved effortlessly when Nuss came into the game. He's a much better QB than Daniels.

Not to mention not turning the ball over. Odd isn’t it?

BK wanted him to build some confidence and that is good for the team but JD is your QB.

Yeah he’s setting himself up nicely to back up Howard next year

I understand the want to have a drop back passer that gives us a threat with these many phenomenal receivers. And at times Nuss looks the part and daniels does not. Daniels doesn’t or isn’t capable of surveying the field for a receiver. Probably because until now he hasn’t had to because of his running ability. Nuss is the opposite. But we were playing NM not An SEC team and it doesn’t take long when you have a night like Nuss did against Southern to see why the coaches have made their choice. Sometimes not pretty and we will lose some but it is the best we can do with what we have. But I don’t disagree that when Nuss is on and the added combination with the line protecting him that we look more dynamic on offense. I’ll trust the coaches as they see in practice what both look like against a very good defense.
