That is so very true, my friend!
If I would do anything different with the Georgia quarterbacks this year. It would be to give the backups more playing time in any game Georgia is up by more than 21 in the second half. This is particularity true in the Samford, Kent State, Vanderbilt and Georgia Tech games. I say this because there is going to be a new quarterback next year. It is going to be important that they have some game experience against players and coaches they do not practice against all week.
We all need to remember that the only quarterback to start every game in a season for Kirby is Jake Fromm. I think that part of what was wrong with Jake in 2019 was the backup quarterback situation.
100 percent agree with you!!
Ummm… 2019 had an OC problem… if I recall…
After all the QB stuff last year, when CKS stayed with SB through thick and thin and it worked perfectly, I cannot imagine any of our talented underclassmen QBs taking the job away based merely on good practices. In my mind the only way SB loses the starter role is if he gets seriously injured or if his game performance seriously falters in more than 1 game. I do agree with the sentiment of giving the other QBs reps in the 2nd half of games with large leads to set things up better for next year.
They did, but I think his point was, and I agree, that Fromm's backups in 2019 were very limited and that is why Fromm's play was limited as well. For example, he couldn't be allowed to pull the ball and run (as he had done so effectively in 2017 and 2018) , even though it was there many times, because if he got hurt, UGA was in a world of trouble.
Fromm's other problem was that he didn't stay another year.
Nobody...and I mean NOBODY....ran the bootleg was well as Fromm. Dude could sell the fake handoff like nobody's business and be 10 yards downfield before anyone knew what was happening, including the cameraman.
Oh, I totally agree!! In 2017 and 2018, he was a tremendous running threat .
Just in 2019, he didn't run it as often, I think, because of the fear that if he got tackled and hurt as a result, we had no experienced QB to come in for him. I remember catching myself yelling at the TV saying "Just pull the darn ball out and run it" and then remembering there was a "team-first" coaching decision not to run it.
Our offense was definitely hampered as a result. But that was not on Fromm at all but just the circumstances of our personnel.
While I think the OC was not great in 2019. Georgia's two big problems were lack of depth at quarterback. They had freshman D'Wan Mathis and red shirt sophomore Stetson Bennett. Georgia also had a great lack at receiver. They had Matt Landers, Kearis Jackson hurt, Lawrence Cager hurt, Tommy Bush hurt, Dominick Blaylock freshman, Makiya Tongue never played, George Pickens freshman, Demetris Robertson hurt, Tyler Simmons hurt and Trey Blount. who was Jake going to through to? I remember the pass in the SEC championship game that bounced of off Tyler Simmons chest he was playing with one arm. Then Dominick Blaylock went down with a ACL.
This is the same writer that thinks USC is playing against the best now that they are in the Big 10.
SMH. He probably gets paid for writing stuff like this.
So is Alabama relying more heavily on Bryce Young this season ? You know, the guy Stetson Bennett beat in the NCG?
The #FACTS. GO DAWGS!!!
Hold on to this photo for the next time someone tries to say that Stet is just too short...
