LSU football is off to a shaky start in 2021, but the program appears to be progressing in the right direction after three weeks thanks in large part to the play of sophomore quarterback Max Johnson.
Johnson, who started the final two games of the 2020 season as a true freshman (going 2-0 in those games), is off to a solid start this season.
The son of Super Bowl-winning quarterback Brad Johnson has tossed for 863 yards, 11 touchdowns, and only two interceptions in three games.
It helps that Johnson has some elite playmakers at this disposal.
