Maybe I'm crazy, but I didn't walk away Saturday thinking "damn, if LSU had a QB they would've won." I thought Harris was serviceable on the pass plays he was asked to run. The interception to lose was bad, but even then he got pressure immediately.


Agreed. O-line was absolutely lost half of the time which caused even Fournette to look almost average.
It certainly contributed to Harris' struggles.
There's no doubt in my mind that he's the best QB on the roster.

I actually wish this was true.

Honestly, Fournette wasn't himself. Injury may have played a part, but he wasn't the same back.


If I'm being hypercritical, I thought he went down really easily quite a few times.

However, until I see competent OL play I'm not ready to shift around QBs and indict LF7.

He was obviously not a hundred percent.

Even if that is the case, I have no reason to believe Etling is any better. Harris has been much better than he was Saturday.

I've outlined several times now why I think Etling is a better fit for what we need currently.

he's had better days, but much better? I don't know, that looked a lot like the guy he's been.
