Gator fans are insufferable sometimes. Mac isnt going to be here for a while. He hasnt squander a season yet...and I say yet. I know the east is down but we ARE in first fricking place.

Our lack of a run game is the real problem....others tell you its the QB and I beg to differ....if you cant run...QB cant throw while prone on the ground. I understood why we were 13th in the SEC last year in rushing the ball...totally makeshift OL with three true frosh starting/playing...I did expect to see improvement in our run game and we are headed back to 11th-13th in rushing again in the SEC. Mac made lemonade out of sewer water last year with the stat of 13th in rushing....but mainly with Muschamps defense bailing us out time and again...this year we still have Muschamps defense for the most part but they will all be gone soon.

The OL HAS to produce and get off their fat azz and block for crying out loud. Johnny Unitas (most of you arent old enough to know how fricking good he was), Dan Marino (best pure passer ever with the quickest release) and any other fantasy QB cant help if the OL doesnt create some run game.

Black high tops and all.

Even the younger crowd should remember him ... weight loss commercials and all.

Gamecocks lost to Pitt and him in the Gator Bowl. Guy had an incredible arm for sure.

Neither of those are apropos examples for the point you were trying to make though ... not IMHO.

Cam Newton perhaps, or Dak Prescott. Tim Tebow or Connor Shaw.

Bottom line is (pardon the pun) that you're right ... without an OLine a QB is usually not going to be productive.
