here is the deal. if losing 1 player makes you that much worse you have more problems than losing a player to injury. Arkansas lost thier best running back, then thier top 3 WRs. they was the best offense in the sec at the end of the year. losing chubb was not georgia's only issue.

True. UGA's biggest problem was QB, something that hasn't happened often in Richt's tenure. Some of y'all are making good points about how the dominoes would likely have fallen, but I do think an offense with an injured Chubb and uninjured Henry has a lot better chance to succeed than, well, one with just an injured Chubb.

Last yr UGA did not have Gurley, Michel, Marshall. Mitchell, Scott Wesley and Rumph for most of the yr and still lead the SEC in scoring O. Hell even Chubb broke his thumb and needed surgery, he was supposed to miss 4-6 weeks. UGA's sorry AD did not feel Bobo deserved a raise from his 500K salary and the top OC in the conference headed west.

Once again, and with some added things now:
Just overlooking the QB position, Georgia was hurt a lot more by Conley and Bennett graduating than I thought they would have. For half of the season, their best option at WR other than Mitchell was a true freshman (one that was a five star prospect and showed flashes). If that isn't a problem, I don't know what is.
Now at TE they were woefully underused as receivers, and that goes right to poor offensive coaching.
