Boy, that kid was soft. Go back and watch the games he was scared as frick to get hit. In addition he was so timid with the ball and had Zero confidence as a Qb. Truthfully I don’t blame and of the Qb for their lack of productivity at LSU. It was simply mikes fault however, whenever we started a game with Etling at Qb I knew we were in for an offensive shite show. He was a good person, however he couldn’t run, always hesitated to pass. How many time did etling hesitate to pass the ball with the game on the line? I think it was the auburn game for sure when he passed the ball after the clock expired and it happens again. It was two game winning touchdown taken back because he played like he was afraid and timid.

bullshite. He took a beating but always stood up in the pocket and got right back up

He wasn't timid, but when you have a coach with an archaic offense, it doesn't give the QB a lot of throwing windows for his receivers.

wat?

none How many times was he even in position to make plays with the game on the line outside of the Auburn game in 2016? Les fricking up the clock situation (again) cost LSU that game, not Etling. Les burned half a minute of clock instead of either calling a timeout or having the team go no huddle with under a minute left. We ultimately had the ball on the ~23 yard line with 24 seconds left and no timeouts. Etling then completed a pass down to the 9 yard line, and the receiver couldn't get out of bounds, so the clock kept running. The next play was snapped with 6 seconds left, and Etling completed a pass down to the 2 yard line for a first down, with only 1 second left on the clock. A penalty was called because one of our WRs couldn't get set, so the ball was moved back to the 15. He completed the next play for a TD but the ball didn't get snapped in time because there was one second left on the clock and Les was bullshitting around confused AF, per usual, instead of having a play called and the team ready and over the ball to snap it when the clock would be running on the refs whistle. That was 100% on Les, not Etling being "timid". It was almost a repeat of Ole Miss 2009. shite Etling had a big 15-20 yard scramble on that last drive, but he "can't run" according to you


Like I said, you are equating his average talent with him being soft. He wasn't, period. He just wasn't all that great a QB. And, do you really think NFL teams would have him running reps at WR if he couldn't run? Really?
