To put it another way...

I don't think we've seen the best of Dom Lovett yet.

I don't think we've seen the best of Ladd McConkey/Brock Bowers on the field at the same time yet.

I dont think we've seen the best of Ra Ra Thomas yet.

And I don't think we've seen the best of Dillon Bell yet.

The potential to be the #1 offense in the country is there.
But it is tough for me to claim that knowing we still have another level available to our passing game.

I agree with all of this.

I guess, possibly, we just view what constitutes what an "offense" is differently.

And I may be the one viewing it wrong, certainly.

But LSU's offensive production will have a steep dropoff without one of their weapons (Daniels), while UGAs production has remained consistent all season, with few outliers, despite all sorts of injuries.

For me, this is not an argument about statistical dominance, and I fully concede that this is what is widely used to define what constitutes a "great offense". This is about the overall utility of an offense as a component of "team".

And hell, even viewing it in this light, maybe LSUs offense is what it has to be to be an adequate component of "team".

It's definitely an interesting conversation.

And because of these things, we haven't seen the best of Carson Beck yet, either.

He has a couple dimes last night that were NFL caliber throws. The tuddy to McConkey was a 40yd seed right in the breadbasket and right in stride. There was also the ~30yd bullet at the close of the 1st half to RaRa (I think), which was dropped. It was away from the defender and low, the only place that ball could be. Hit RaRa right in the damn hands. Incredible passes.

If he can get the deep ball going? Holy shite.
