re: So does Bo

Bo would love to have Cooper Wallace, Ronnie Brown, Caddy, Troy Reddick, Slaughter, Marcus McNeil, Ben Grubbs, etc.

You know, people that can actually do their job.

Does any part of the equation involve Bo doing HIS job?

This is a serious question. There are a few of you on this board who literally talk as if he plays perfect football - but he's just let down time after time after time.

Do you even watch the games? Here are two plays against Georgia that pop into my mind immediately:

Play #1 - we're inside UGA's 15 yard line. The ball is fumbled, and miraculously it bounces back into his hands. He does one of the dumbest things ever and instead of taking a sack, he tries to flail the ball into the ground as he's being taken down. It is initially called a fumble (and UGA's ball) and we LUCKILY have the call overturned. Just zero football awareness of where you are on the field or what to do on a loose ball drill.

Play #2 - we're inside Georgia's 15 or 20 yard line. The protection breaks down, and he bolts. I swear to God he must have ran about 20 yards backwards before LUCKILY being able to throw the ball away before the Georgia defender who was chasing him started to make contact. Once again, zero positional awareness. This play was about a millisecond away from being a ~20 yard loss, and I think that Harsin would have taken his soul right then and there on the field had it played out like that.

The other players on the offense around Bo get their fair and deserved criticism when they don't do their jobs. To come back here week after week after week and talk as if Bo Nix "does his job" every play, is so brainless that I struggle to understand that I'm talking to real people. Yes, we all know the OL gets beat a lot and the WR's have been bad. What about when the OL actually blocks their guy and the spazz with the ball starts running from phantom pressure? What about when the ball is delivered 5 yards over the head of the receiver? Who's fault is that?
