Murray also had shite to work for as far as defense (except 2011s stats - which were much worse against the good teams that year). He also didn't have a running game except 2012 (Green and Douglas were our goto RBs for a lot of last year). He also didn't have an OL. I like Mason but Murray had to go out and take many many more risks because unless we were putting up 30+, we weren't winning. And we sure as hell weren't going to do it on the ground except in 2012.

I think Aaron Murray was as good as any qb Georgia's ever had. It's hard to compare because there are so many variables, but Murray made his reads, found the pen guy and delivered the pass very fast. When he had healthy receivers and semi-decent protection, nobody wanted to defend that offense.

It's impossible to know how good Mason would have been with a couple more years as a starter, but I don't think he could have ever done the things Murray was asked to do. I'm pretty sure Murray could have done everything that Mason has been asked to do, with the possible exception being his height issues with throwing screen passes.
