This team has serious problems along the LOS, and it starts with Kirby. This team has offensive problems, and it starts with Kirby. This team has DB problems, and it starts with Kirby. It all starts with Kirby, and I want something done about these problems.

I don’t think this teams main problems are fixable in season.

This team is lacking along the DL. This lack of pressure exposes our young secondary.

This team has a young inexperienced QB, he will continue to improve.

OL is beat up and inexperienced.

Coaches need to analyze their game prep for why it leads to “slow starts”. Need to really think over certain decisions and if they were the right ones (not taking points, running walkon scatbacks in most critical situations).

11-1/10-2 season not out the question, but 8-4 is also possible…worse if injuries really take a toll.

They already have. I think this team is 4-0 pretty comfortably with a healthy offensive line.

I think we’re 4-0 without that retarded play call

And a better prepared defense.

We had two full weeks to put together a good defensive scheme so that we wouldn't get rolled again in the first half...

We need to figure out how to get off of the field on third down plays.

It’s laughable at this point how we manage to lose games to Alabama. I thought it was just going up against the greatest coach of all time but that’s not it. Bama has lost to Vandy, OU, Tenn, and Fla st on the road under Deboer, and those games weren’t even close.(maybe Vandy). Then they finally show up to Athens where they haven’t played in 10 years, a place we have been extremely good at under Kirby. But some how we find a way to make them look like the greatest team ever assembled EVERY single time we play them. It’s just hard for me to wrap my head around this loss bc I don’t feel like they are a better football team than us.

I think the play call isn’t an issue if the o line is healthy.

Gaining 7ypc in spite of the banged up OL and giving up 3 ypc makes it hard for me to argue that there are issues in the trenches. I would have liked to have seen a bit more pass rushing pressure and it was frustrating to see receivers turn around and present a target with no UGA defensive player within a couple of yards. A lot of that seemed like good scheming from Alabama but we can still improve on those points. Overall, hated giving the ball to a 190lb back instead of a 240lb back that couldn’t be stopped all game.

They converted almost every third down with ease. MLB is the key to a Kirby defense, and unfortunately CJ Allen ain’t it. 33 was a beast though

I don't think there's as much of a problem with the offense as there is on defense which is crazy to say. The fact that we couldn't get off the field on 3rd down was quite eye opening. The offense didn't have much opportunity. The game would have been much different had TT caught that pass right down the scene which was an amazing throw by Gunner to begin with or if nate didn't fumble in plus territory or we didn't rush the fourth down, which cash Jones shouldn't even have been in on that playing in my opinion. we had plenty of opportunities on offense so I don't want to blame it all on offense the running game looked solid.

The defense is a really concerning problem I got to be honest. The lack of pass rush had Ty sitting back there looking like Joe Montana. The lack of disruption in the past rush is causing our DBS to have to work harder than previous years. I mean it's literally non-existent it's crazy.

Did you say this after the Tennessee game when the offense answered every score UT made and then won in overtime? No. You only say it because you hate Bobo and think you are smarter than the HC and everyone else.
We were lucky to have Monken at the time when recruiting and coaching came together when fans of most teams can only dream for. We could have paid Todd Monken $3M a year and given him 3 or 4 months off and kept him. But maybe he didn't want to have to deal with the NIL shite that drove Nick Saban from coaching.

The freshmen on defense played average and played poorly at times. the DL failed to pressure the QB and allowed him time to pass at leisure. The DBs covered poorly the first half and were still shaky the whole game.
The entire team needs this season to meld and play to support each other. If they stay together through next season this team will resemble the 2022 and 2023 teams.

That's not gonna happen. By the end of this season a bunch of trolls and "realist" Dawgs will have convinced them all that they suck and, as Matt Stinchcomb said to troll central, it's "time to move on". Couple that with rumors of plans to fire every coach including Kirby Smart, and we'll be in complete rebuild mode by Febuary, if all goes according to plan.

It's a humble beginning but the trolls can be quite dogged when they get a bone in their teeth. Ask Stetson Bennett and Carson Beck.

The offense does have some problems. OL, 3rd down conversions, and play calling. I also listed the other issues I see but you didn't mention those, did you?
