JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Kirby Smart explained his decision to go with Stetson Bennett over JT Daniels as a matter of going with the flow.

Injuries happen to QB's all the time. Most work to overcome the injury and win their starting job back.. Daniels failed to do that at USC with Slovis waiting to display his talents, which obviously impressed the coaches enough to name Slovis as the starter. As I've stated before, I don't care if Kirby starts Jordan Davis at QB if it ends in a DAWGS win..8-0, #1 in the country, SEC East champs..GoDAWGS!
Most of these comments are truly sad. It is interesting to see how many fans have bought into the hype surrounding Daniels. This is not to say Daniels does not have a lot of talent because he does. What is being overlooked is he is fragile. Stop for a minute and think where this team would be with Beck in place of Bennett. I doubt the record would be the same
I was referring to this assumption making the rounds that Smart is not going to give Daniels a chance to win the starting job back over the coming weeks, and it's going to cost Georgia a title. Pretty sure you haven't watched those games, on the field.
I don't disagree on the importance of getting Daniels back up to game speed, as I think he's the better quarterback. I've been very consistent on that all season. My issue with these comments is that people are criticizing Smart for a blunder he hasn't had a chance to even make yet. If Daniels keeps riding the bench all the way into the playoff then I'll certainly join you in your frustration. All I'm saying is it actually has to happen before I do
