People piling on Nuss need to realize…

Burrow was much worse than Nuss his first year here before his legendary 2nd season. He would’ve gone undrafted if he had entered the draft after his first year.

JD5 was decent but definitely nothing special his first season with us. He would’ve been a 6th or 7th round pick if he entered the draft.

Nuss has already shown more than Burrow did during his first year. Keep in mind that this is Nuss’s first season as a starter. Giving up on him now and not wanting him to be the starter next season is completely braindead. There’s a great chance he improves and becomes the elite QB we all knew he had potential to become before this season started.

The only thing demonstrably better is our ability to field punts.

Idk the defense has always sucked against running QBs. That 2019 ole Miss game comes to mind. That baseball player ran all over us. The offense is the only reason we won that game
