There are about 116 defenses that would be improvements.

Why run the ball for no gain on second down, when you have over 400 yards passing on the night? Why take a sack on 3rd down, instead of giving someone a chance or throwing it away? Why not go for the fourth down play when your defense has zero chance to stop them? Why throw to the running back when you need a score at the end? Why not throw a pass over the middle of field to pick up an easy 10-12 with timeouts left. Why not throw to your top 2 receivers and let them will their way to victory on the last play of game?

So many questions and they all have no answers

Touchdowns and wins are what matters and all that matters. Not close. Your just coming off as stupid.

Way too many drops and in big moments. He doesn't deserve to be on the field over other guys who make plays.

Most likely just above 50% completions with most throws at or near the line of scrimmage, 7.5 yards per attempt, and will struggle to put the ball in the enzone. 5th year senior probably isn't going to be much different than his norm. Probably about 60 yards rushing and 3 or 4 sacks taken.

JD is way too inconsistent as a QB to consistently beat good teams. That was proven last season and he has not shown improvement with the small sample size exhibited so far this season. Rolling out and leaving the pocket too often limits options and makes the field smaller. Throwing down field with competence is what opens the running game for himself and the running backs. You can disagree now, just like many did last season. The reality is he has been awful at putting the ball in the endzone vs FSU x2, Auburn, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas A&M, and Georgia.

5th year senior who was 19th in league last season in yards per pass attempt. He is still bailing too early, holding the ball too long, missing open receivers, and taking sacks on 4th down. With this porous defense, that is a recipe for losses against good teams and a couple slip ups against weaker teams. I just hate to see the team suffer without seeing if someone else is capable of putting points on the board. Unfortunately, the coaches see it differently despite what has already been observed on the field.

OL would live up to their potential with a QB that doesn't bail too soon, doesn't hold the ball too long, and has the potential to throw the ball down field. Hard to have rushing success and balance when all defensive guys are playing near the LOS and in the box.

There is the true fricking genius. Burrow had never played a meaningful game until that season. This running back, playing the QB role had already completed multiple seasons as a starter. If anyone would choose Daniels over Burrow at the end of 2018, you are absolutely the dumbest motherfricker on the planet. He actually progresses and finished the year out strong. He was also incredible and the best ever in his second year. Daniels was fricking useless at the end of the season, while shitting the bed against A&M and Arkansas.

Look at the teams with a pulse and avoid the Pee Wee opponents. Those stats are cute. Jd was one of the worst in the SEC for yards per attempt and completion last season. Putting the ball in the endzone against quality teams and completing balls down field are his weaknesses. I know you guys aren't dumb enough to think that he does well in those categories. He is good enough for 4 losses, but nothing more. LSU needs even more points this season because the defense is awful. 5th year senior just needs more time to develop.

Failure to get into the endzone was a problem for JD for FSU x2, Auburn, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas A&M, and Georgia. Wouldn't hurt to try something new. Playing Purdue in a shitty bowl wasn't exactly a tremendous end to the season.
