Ignoring the many Ints that were dropped, just look at the numbers. Those are black and white, can't be skewed. They are literally what happened. No doubt he played the game of 4 lifetimes against SC, and nobody is taking that away from him. Next week we had a cupcake (southern). AFter that was bama. Here are his stats following the southern game:

bama: 10/24, 86 yards, 0/1
@ut: 15/32, 279 yards, 2/0
mizz: 23/32, 178 yards, 0/1
uk: 6/13, 64 yards, 1/0
@au: 12/17, 97 yards, 0/0
gsu: 16/25, 183 yards, 1/0
@gt: 18/25, 225 yards, 0/0
psu: 10/20, 115 yards, 1/0

Through the heart of the schedule, only twice did he throw for 200 yards. In three of hte games he threw for less than 100 yards. 5 TDs/2 Int over his last 8 games. That is awful.

I'm not going to pile on the guy and say he sucks, I'm just saying he doesn't (from what I see and read) give us the best chance to win games. He is going to be ultra ultra safe, throw for minimal yardage, and be fairly predictable. Ramsey and Eason at least will take some shots and stretch the field.

Our D left us in some bad spots

In 6 of those 8 games above, the defense gave up 17 points or less. AGainst missouri/auburn/gsu, games that went down to the final end, the defense gave up a grand total of 3 TDs.

Last season the guy went 10-2 and woulda been 11-1 if not for Reggie

I belive that reggie drop would have only tied the game. And again, it's nice to say he was 10-2 as a starter, but we won games despite our woeful QB play.

Meh, I tried explaining that previously. It didn't seem to sink in.

To highlight the numbers a bit further, because who doesn't love beating a dead horse.

Georgia ranked 119th out of 128 at 3rd down conversion percentage (offense), at a 31% clip. Last place was at 25.4, first place at 51.7, so much closer to the bottom than the top.

Compare that to the defense, which was the 8th ranked unit at preventing 3rd down conversions for opponents at 28.9%

4th down conversion percentage for the offense a dismal 100th/128. Defense not much better at 73rd.

Redzone Offense - 99th based on percentage of opportunities ending in some kind of scoring play, but nearly 50% of those were FGs.

Redzone Defense - 3rd.

I mean, you can literally go through all of the possible stats that have any meaning and there is no way you can point to our offensive production and tell me that Greyson Lambert was responsible for delivering wins last season outside of South Carolina. Even though a record was set in the South Carolina game around consecutive completions, we didn't even rank in the top 50 schools in passing efficiency, a stat that one might expect Greyson Lambert to rate highly in given his penchant for throwing to the dump off short route.
