No BS here but even if Burrow’s skills were off the chart, would the coaches actually know what to do with it? Recruiting has never been a problem at LSU. Offensive creativity has. Just an outsiders perspective.

Face it the bar has been pretty low the last decade. Every year has been LSU will be good if they can find a QB and a passing game.

Joe got here in late July or early August. With three other qb’s, I don’t believe he got much preseason time with the receivers. Couple that with learning a new play book and going under center for the first time since middle school, a slow start is understandable. We saw progress through the year.

Word is the new offense is closer to what he is use to. He is a grad student that has plenty of time for football and being the man for a year has helped make this his team.

I hope max protect is truly minimized this year. Ala got pressure rushing four and having seven cover 2/3. Hard to get a completion against that.

Line will always be a key. Four returning with three others with starting experience helps. They look leaner and have hopefully improved footwork. Fewer seven step drops will help.

It helps he has a confidence that can be infectious. Hopefully we will be less predictable and use all our players better. S Sullivan is a 6’5” receiver/TE that has never been targeted in the red zone. What ever the problem , I hope it’s fixed.

Finally it’s preseason, almost everyone is confident. Even eATMe
