Georgia football championship dreams on hold until nightmare quarterback situation is solved
The first two times Georgia wide receiver Kearis Jackson was asked about the passing game and its struggles following a 44-28 loss to Florida, he deferred to let Kirby Smart answer those questions. And after the performance Stetson Bennett and D'Wan Mathis put on, Smart is only going to continue to get questions
Comments
Fromm never lost to florida.
If we haven’t given every qb on the team at least 3 or 4 series to show what they can do, after what we’ve seen from Bennett and Mathis, it’s not going to be solved, at least not this year.
I seriously think JT could have completed more passes than the two that played. But then again, if you have to throw to Landers your doomed anyway. Kearis is a baller. Shame Rosemy got hurt when he finally contributed in a big way. Maybe Blaylock bounces back next season and Burton, Pickens and a couple of the new guys can develop. Offensive line ok but not great. Florida's O-line was supposed to be their weakness and we couldn't do much with them. They dominated our defense.
Fields, who made the most cowardly transfer in college football history, not because he left, but because he went to a team with elite talent that plays a high school schedule, will be Kirbys legacy if he never wins a championship. Our recruiting has been so exciting to watch, but the wheels are going to fall off soon if we keep blowing it.
Dang, now we see why Bennett was starting. Mathis certainly isn't the answer right now, and I guess Beck and Daniels must not be up to **** either. That was depressing to watch with all those injuries on defense, knowing we could win with just a decent qb. I know Jamie Newman gotta be regretting his decision. Draft is probably going to be full of qbs that have proven themselves on the field, and he's at home. Could have been a heisman contender with the rest of this offense.
I don't know the real reason JT isn't playing but I can assure you it isn't because he is less talented than the two who played tonight. Something about his insurance policy. You can google his games in high school or at USC (highlights) and see what I'm saying.
Maybe, maybe not. We’ll never know. Newman’s stats against better teams was not impressive at all. Wake Forest not exactly a hot bed for developing qb’s.
We got punked tonight. Defense was toothless.
Apparently neither is GA
Kirby made this bed. Actually it's not made at all. I see teams across America with serviceable QB's who can move an offense down the field. And UGA can't? Our QB's are a liability. Why is that? QB development should be THE #1 deal on any team. Not this one. Kirby is losing it fast. So we win the rest and go to the whatever bowl. There, half the players will opt out and UGA will lose another lackluster performance. Rinse. Repeat.
Gotta give you a “vote up” on that one Docck.
I agree the trajectory for the program is quickly slipping away from where it was in 2017
remember when UGA had Fromm, Fields, and Eason?! I think his aggressive recruiting, which normally benefits the program, ended up being the cause of his current downfall
elite QB don’t want to be clipboard divas, and with the current transfer rules, they don’t have to.
kirby should’ve seen the bigger picture when fields arrived as the highest ever recruit to hit campus, and do whatever he had to keep him
Curious. No one is mentioning that the defense has gotten lightened up twice in the last 3 games. The offense is a mess, but when will the d get called out for not being able to cover anyone one on one.
