Thats bullshite. Its not like defenses are leaving recievers wide open and uncovered because they think mason cant throw.

Stop repeating bullshite you heard on tee vee.

Don't think Ramsey is ready but we really need to put Bauta in on some of these design option runs. He'd be a much greater threat to keep the ball and run than Mason is and put more pressure on opposing defenses.

Mason is better than he is showing, hopefully getting some WRs back will let us spread things out for him.

Well, if he isn't then he damn sure missed a good chance.

You're right. Cox could at least throw the ball downfield. Mason is worse.

Being on the other side of the planet, have to rely on watching the replay I'm about to start so I'll just go ahead and ask. Were some of these short balls he threw caused by him and the receiver not being on the same page? Were receivers running the correct routes? Was he throwing to the correct routes? Does he trust his current WR corps or is he hesitant and trying to finesse it to them too much and sucking at it? Is some of this to blame on the WRs?

Seems that's all they do with him when he is in so when he's in the D is assuming run.

I believe the first one to Bennett, they were not on the same page. At least I assume they weren't on the same page. The throw was too far off to simply be a bad throw in my opinion.

It was Bennett and Conley as the targets of the bad throws I'm thinking off. If he doesn't trust them, something is wrong. There was a bad one to Shakkeneth (sp) Williams, back shoulder toward the sideline, it was pretty far off and he was pretty well covered. Reciever still should have found a way to catch it, but was still not a great pass, and probably could be attributed to Mason not trusting Shakkenneth (sp) Williams.

And for anyone that cares, I was not drunk until the 4th quarter. Most of my observations that are worthy of note will be from Q1-Q3ish.

Deep rig is Mason your cousin or something? I normally agree with your posts but not this. Body of work? That shows no deep throw ability. Only real positive up to this game was no turnovers. The Tenn game. Weak passes no field vision. Tuck and run. No play extension. Horrible interceptions. He may have been a stud in HS. But if this is just rust it's 4 year old rust. Time to just use the new machinery. he could turn it around. But a game like yesterday. We would lose to at least the top 5 other SEC teams with that performance.

Jay Rome was wide open on one of the interceptions, but Mason decided to throw it to the guy who was well covered instead.

There definitely is such a thing as telegraphing and Mason does it.

On every throw yesterday, he stared down his intended receiver.

Everytime I saw him do this, I feared he was going to throw an interception.

I don't know if Georgia should prepare to start using other qbs or not, but Mason definitely had a terrible game yesterday.

I have read many posts over the last few weeks criticizing Mason. I have not commented just because I didn't think I had enough to base an opinion on. However, he gave me cause for concern this past week when he was on SEC Film Room with Greene. He said that plays ended with best results when he knew where he was going with the ball before the snap. I did a double take when he said that. Never heard a QB say that. With that comment in mind, I watched him lock on to one guy all day Saturday. Disturbing revelation going forward. The only time he progressed to another guy was when he moved out of the pocket due to pressure.

McElroy is a real douche but I think he summed up Mason well last night. He said that Bobo needs to stop using him like he has Murray's arm throwing outside the hash. He doesn't have the arm strength to throw the outs , comebacks ,fades and go routes to the sideline or "outside" the hash mark. Said that far a Mason to be effective he needs to keep everything inside the hash.

It has become painfully obvious that our offense is hamstrung by our QB. Mason just doesn't have it.


While I agree, I can only conclude that Mason is the only QB completely prepared to run the offense. Hopefully one of the backups with more arm strength and athletic ability will be ready next season.

I need a show of hands of people who said Mason was better than Murray and that a Richt and Bobo were playing favorites.

If we get up on Vandy, Ramsey deserves some playing time. If he performs well, then, the next game is Missouri. Hudson starts, if he continues to struggle, he is told to fake an injury and Ramsey comes in. Why the fake injury? So he can save face and so we won't have a QB "controversy".

I brought this up in another thread, but I don't see how Mason knowing the playbook is worth a shite if he can't physically execute half the plays. At this rate, wouldn't it make more sense to start a guy with a limited playbook that can actually make the throws needed?

Who said he can't execute half the plays? Break that down for me like I never played QB.

I"m not going to waste time trying to dig up the posts but I do remember a few posters here were suggesting that Mason should be playing instead of Murray after Murray had one of his bad games. But at this point it is clear even to the most biased why Murray was starting over Mason.
