T or F - Jayden gives LSU better chance to win first few games until OL gels?

I’ll admit, I’m biased and really want Nuss to start. I just think the kid has the pedigree and the guts to play the position. He hasn’t proved it on the field though.

Harsh reality is we paid BK a bunch of money to win games, and he’s smart enough to respect the urgency. I think he starts JD against FSU simply to give him more flexibility with his legs until the OL is in a better position.

I would guess after 2-3 games, the OL should improve, and then we may see Nuss and JD split time in later part of September.

But if JD kills it with the opportunity, then that’s a win-win for tiger fans and BK. Thoughts?

We have an offensive line that definitely needs time to gel and Jayden has also passed well in practice
Hes starting to look like the clear best option for this SEASON, not just the first few games

By all reports Jayden is playing better than Nuss. Throw in his ability to run and I think the choice is clear. I’m a huge Nuss supporter though next year will be his year if he can beat out walker

Or he starts Jayden simply because he's better than Nuss right now.

We gotta listen and read bullshite for the next 3 weeks on peoples opinions on who should start. We have a plethora of good coaches to make that decision, I don't know why everyone wont just sit back and let the staff make the call and us just get behind the decision.

F

If he is still working on footwork and accuracy. If the OL isn't working the running doesn't help much since he hasn't shown escapability, mostly designed runs.

Early in the season seems to be the best time to pick secondaries apart. Would rather attack with our wide receivers.

Yeah, I think at this point jd is just looking like the better option overall regardless of what the OL does. Don’t really understand why you would care one way or the other who starts at this point though unless you just don’t like the look of one of them.

Thanks Elleshoe!

Both qb’s are coming along nicely and I think both of them give LSU a chance to win

Are the constant fears about Daniels' accuracy all based on the spring game? The guy completed 65% of his passes last year after ASU had something like 6 WRs transfer out.

He's certainly good enough to start the year with, but some posters act like he's the second coming of Reggie Ball.

Thing is I don't think Nuss will play that much this year because Jayden is getting better passing. Remember the last time he had NFL WRs he did quite well.

I was in the Brennan camp but if his mind, body, or interest is not there then I think Daniels is the best likely option simply due to his experience level.
I am higher on Nuss than I am on Howard at the present time. My short amount of observations lead me to believe he is way ahead of Howard in development.

I got murdered for saying this a few days ago. It’s the truth, though. Kelly is considering way more variables than any of us can comprehend.
