No, you’re putting words into my mouth. You’re right I didn’t think Milroe would have a “big day” against A&M. I said over and over will Milroe be able to throw the ball effectively against A&M? So, I knew A&M was vulnerable to the pass. But, stop lying on me. You really need to stop worrying about me and worry about the team b/c this team and staff are both deeply flawed. And, Milroe has a LONG way to go.


You need to stop worrying about the team and worry about yourself, because you have way too much invested in a bunch of kids who you don't even know and don't know you. Find some meaning for yourself.

Chris Boring will be right one day if he keeps it up every year. Might take a while but he’ll get there eventually.

Everything I heard coming into the game was how good their defense was.

Our Qb was mainly responsible for that bad rushing stat. He was 8 for -31 and all I saw was him take sacks that were avoidable.


Ironic how it so easy to pin things negative on him but so hard for you to give him the praise for the good he has done.

If you think all he took was avoidable sacks then you must have watched the game drunk or something.

Guy made many great throws and actually made read progressions but you're whining that he couldn't be perfect when no one else can be.. including you.

I imagine that him being pretty unproven in incrementally throwing the ball down the field doesn’t help the run game either. Maybe I’m sunshine pumping, but I want to believe that not taking unnecessary sacks and becoming more cerebral are things that can be improved upon in season

Even the biggest Milroe hater (probably) has to admit that he is in a different stratosphere than he was against A&M in 2022. Maybe this is the finished product of what he’ll be at Bama, maybe it isn’t

Bama is just average at the RB position with 2 and 5. This OL isn't going to blow folks off the LOS it appears, so ground yards are going to be tuff. I would like to see 22 gets some attempts when it really counts but Nick is playing the folks he is most comfortable with.

We'll see.

Yea there isn’t a Derrick or Ingram. There might not even be a Brian Robinson level guy. But with good blocking Jace and Roydell would be effective. Getting a little bit more on a per carry basis could potentially do wonders

If Derrick Henry is what we would call a "good RB," then yeah, I guess you are right. I actually believe we have very good RBs. But our OLine isn't getting their jobs done

I think 26 and 22 are closer to that level guy, but I have kind of given up on seeing them get any kind of significant touches.

More nonsense attacking talent from the guy who defended Pete Golding and Bill O'Brien for years attacking talent and holding them instead of their leadership responsible.

You're wrong again.

We have good RBs they may not be 1st rounders but they are good players.

The issue is they aren't getting consistent blocking and you can't even expect Derrick Henry to look amazing behind this offensive line the past five weeks.

This of course eludes your great intellect because of your obsession to hate and degrade atheltes.

I would add that overall, the blocking from the WRs has been terrible on the perimeter. The offensive line (IMO) is too fat and slow. They all probably need to lose 10-30 lbs apiece but obviously, that' ain't happening anytime soon and they're what Bama has to work with.

I know Jase and Roydell try hard and run hard but have clearly lost a step and aren't quick or shifty anymore since they blew their knees out. However, they have game experience and are usually decent pass blockers and CNS places gigantic value on that.

I'll say this, next Spring is going to be pretty crazy to see who's going to be "The Man" at RB. Jam Miller has some experience but Justice Haynes is going to be hard to keep off the field. Richard Young may surprise the hell out of people. Who knows?

Jase is still very shifty. He had some good runs between the tackles and made the LBs run right by him. It's assinine to say that he is not shifty. But i do think Jam and Justice are better runners at this point. They need carries.

Jase is a good RB. He's not Henry level but he can certainly be just as good as a TJ Yeldon caliber back. I hate to keep downplaying Roydell because he's a Bama guy through and through but man he's not SEC caliber.

You need runners that are hard to tackle. Sounds basic but it's true. Roydell is not that guy. We need to see more Haynes, Miller and Young.

I wonder if we start seeing more of Haynes after the bye week. Seems to be the point in the season in recent years where some freshmen that have impressed in working during practice early in the year get a chance to be added to gameplans.

I disagree. TJ Yeldon was pretty awesome for us for 3 years. We pretty much know what Jase is at this point. I think Jase is a damn good football player, who has the potential to break one every once and a while, gives great effort. I have nothing bad to say about him, and I am glad that he is on our team. He was clutch as hell with that catch last Saturday.

We better if we want him back next year. Given their RB situation and his personal ties to the program I'd say there is a ~100% chance UGA has been in his ear for at least the last month.

If he doesn’t learn to block and read blocks he won’t play. Regardless of his running ability.
