I was at the game yesterday and could not see game unfold like TV viewers. I watched the game replay this evening and damn was it different than last nine games!

MVB is not a messiah QB but he makes the defense defend him. As a result running lanes were open. OL did not look completely lost on running plays. MVB had good pocket presence and ran enough to change the game. We threw the ball over the middle. 3-4 shots downfield yielded 2 penalties. And the biggest thing, 4th Qtr comeback with 92 yd drive

I said early on Sloan was the problem. I
now would add BK and injured/PTSD Nuss to that equation as well.

MVB was definitely nervous to start the game. One thing he needs to improve on is when to run and finishing those runs getting every yard he can before contact. A lot of time he's running out of bounds or going down way before any contact is coming. Obviously hurt us in the Bama game

LOL. Ark's defensive front was horrible. LSU's O-Line looked like it was All-SEC against Ark's defensive front. It was a mirage. That is why Ark has th worst defense in the SEC and it isnt' even close.

I saw an offense that STRUGGLED MIGHTILY to put points on the board against the worst defense in the league even with the benefit of several turnovers.

23 points. Very little changed.

Imagine how bad it would have been if BK and Sloan were still running this offense.

Nobody it is saying it is great but it is a lot better. Different players on field where others did not perform. All we can ask at this point…

How many WR screens did we run yesterday…

You saw what MVB can do in a game. He can tuck it on 3rd and long and run for 35 yards. That drive also won the game for us.

Nuss couldn’t have done that. Also I think MVB looked smoother as the game progressed

You can't make wholesale changes at this point. The roster is very flawed offensively and the staff is at least squeezing every drop out of what they have. Realizing 8 games in that Harlem Berry needs at least 15 touches is another reason Sloan and Kelly had to go. You aren't fixing the OL this year. Hire a new offensive staff and hopefully hit on 3-4 guys up front in the portal.
