I think Myles will be our starter, but man Johnson is a great QB. His ability to move in the pocket is huge. He will be the next great QB at LSU when is time comes.

What do you mean what should have been? You think Max wins mizzou or Miss st? Kid was barely accustomed to the playbook. Myles will start, Max will be great in the future. You can see by the endorsements Myles is getting that he will start. No one is giving our backup QB an F-250 for fun.

I like Max, but if you strip away the runs and do an “all-passes” version then it’s not really that great. At this point he runs well, but good teams will just make him throw and that’ll be an issue unless he improves quite a bit.

I've got to imagine he meant Max should have come in for Myles when he got hurt. Not that Max should have started over him.

There was maaaaaybe one game that we win if max started over tj and that’s a and m , and even that’s a long shot.

Be a little bit thankful for what tj did for us. I would argue that tj had the best first start in recent memory for us
He was also good against Arkansas. Max got a chance to get his feet wet first. Tj went from no chance of playing to starter and won back to back starts .he played damn good in those two games.

He played good against Alabama too I thought

Why does everyone think just because Myles is getting these minor NIL deals he’s the starter

Man our offensive line was bad at picking up the blitz and stopping a 5-man rush. Gotta give it to Max for stepping into his role with a full stride. Guy can put the ball on a rope. He was true freshman out there looking as good as someone who’s been with the team for 4 years. He’s got a lot of talent.

My takeaways:
1) Max had better speed on his throws than I remember, at least later in the year.
2) Damn, he could easily have had another 6 interceptions.
3) Gilbert was a beast.
4) As a passer, not as great as I remember.
5) As bad as our offense was last year, Ole Miss was far worse. Max had all day to throw and they completely lost Boutte on several plays.

I think what he means is what could have been after myles got hurt. Johnson should have been starting over Finley.

Man our O-Line sucks....Max has good pocket movement/awareness though, kept a lot of plays alive that had no business staying alive. Seems to have really good blitz awareness. Good at extending the play and finding the open man, which is exactly what you want in a college QB.

Good run instinct. Tough player.

Nice touch on the short floaters. He'll be deadly in the redzone.

Obviously didn't get a lot of deep ball tries, but accuracy on those are lacking. Can't say it's completely his fault as a lot of his throws were either on his back foot/rushed/pressure up the middle. Hopefully he gets those down though.

Is it just me or does he have a long wind-up?

Overall, has a lot of good attributes. Needs a solid deep ball to be truly elite imo.

Dude is legit. Saved LSU from becoming the first team to have a losing season following a national championship.Not to mention he helped LSU secure a top tier recruiting class. Max is a solid QB and is ready to take over

Wonder why we waited so long to pay Max ??? Would have won more games if he played more.

He looked very shaky in mop up duty against Auburn and A&M. TJ was better early in the season.
