ATHENS — There’s a chance Georgia backup quarterback Carson Beck could get the start against UAB on Saturday at Sanford Stadium, and that has college football abuzz.

If JT felt had discomfort but thought he could play leading up to the Clemson game, would he have mentioned it ? After what he's gone through to play, I'm not so sure.
How in the world would stating that Daniels has an injury that may or may not prevent him from playing have prevented articles about the possibility of the backup playing and speculation about the seriousness of the injury?
@JayCrow since this topic has appeared in several different articles I have been consistent in my position about whether JT should play or not. I believe he should not play if he is not 100%.
Now maybe you can enlighten us with your position if you have one and the reasoning behind it. I look forward to reading it.
@E_Roc It would not but any follow on inquiries could be addressed with a simple that will be determined Saturday. Kirby would both help himself and build credibility with the media instead of making this a guessing game. Look at the many comments that have been made about Kirby reporting injuries that turned out to be false and he knew they were false when he was reporting them.
I’ll bite…..most players are rarely 100% once the season starts especially after a physical game like Clemson. If you want your offense to gel with receivers and line you start him and let him play a few series to continue the development. You only play the back-up if you do not fully believe in the starter or the chance of further injury is that great. Ask any coach and they will agree. If 100% is the standard we would rarely play with starters.
I for one hope Beck gets an opportunity to develop in case we need him later but not at the risk of losing JTs game experience with the group he has.
Against Clemson, I saw receivers not getting open and whiffing on blocks to the point of embarrassment. UAB ain’t chopped liver and if the receivers don’t improve either QB might struggle in the passing game. My hope is the D is clicking on all cylinders once again and gives us some short fields where we don’t need long drives to put up points.
This is what I would hope to see. Well said.
What if, for once, you didn't follow a lazy narrative you know nothing about to stir the pot? More click bait. Zero respect for you.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I noticed that statement was a little one sided against McKonkey too. He leapt for it, but it was a very difficult catch. Of course a taller receiver form the injury list probably makes it...
