Amari Rogers had an acl tear in the spring and came back like Pickens. His team played in the NC game that year also. He played 20 plays in the first quarter, not to mention the rest of the game.

Young was the only reason the game was close. He actually played incredibly given the constant pass rush and complete ineptitude of his receiving corps.

Your team won. Celebrate.

Young is a great talent. His chances of beating a defense with double digit NFL players went down with the losses of Metchie and Williams.

It’s interesting that Saban evolved his offensive philosophy from “win the line of scrimmage, run the ball, and don’t lose the game,” to “spread them out, get wide, get vertical, throw it all over the yard.”

Even Saban has to have a talent advantage to win consistently. The backup WRs did not execute at a high level, and they certainly were not up to the level of the Gerogia defense.

There were many reasons Georgia won the game, but it was not because Bryce Young has no talent.

Bennett made plays with his best players. The TE may be a future NFL hall of famer.

Young was throwing to a kid who really did not see meaningful action until that game. 84 transferred.

Amari came back unreasonably fast, but it is irrelevant to the point either way.

All that really matters is what happened on the field in the game, which was both uga and bama only having their best WR on the field for the same amount of plays due to torn ACL related issues.

Bennett did way better than McElroy in the national title game

I do think Bennett is better than McElroy primarily because he’s more athletic. But to be fair, MeElroy played in the NCG with 2 broken ribs. He did however play pretty well in the SEC CG against Florida’s elite defense.

So, he wasn't under any protocol. He actually came back in the 2nd game and a week later played over 20 snaps, going for 121 yards and 2 TDs. Pickens had been back for a month and a half, so an ACL wasn't the reason he played as much as he did.
Your best receiver was Bowers, and the point was injuries. Williams was injured and couldn't play. Pickens was cleared and was healthy.

The acl is the only reason our best WR only played 18 snaps rather than 48 like our best TE did.

There is no other good reason to limit snaps on a badass. You can’t name one.

You have tried to make it that, and failed miserably in trying.

This has always simply been about players playing or not playing (for whatever reason).

I've proven there is no protocol and that the ACL wasn't the reason. The reason your TE played more is that he is a better, more important player. Pickens was no better than 3rd best offensive player on your offense, and maybe lower.

This has always been about injuries, who was unable to play because of them. What do you think it was about when you were taking about doctors, protocols, etc.? The reason you are arguing it is that deep down you believe the game would have been different with the roles reversed.

Protocols differ depending on the doctor and player, which is why talking about amari is irrelevant.

You need to provide a new reason if you think the ACL isn’t why he sat on the bench so much.

What you got?

quote:

This has always been about injuries


Players out for injuries and suspensions.

Why a player is out has never been relevant to the impact of a player being out. Those are 2 different discussions.

We would have won by more with Pickens, JTD, Anderson, Tate, and smith.

That means there is no protocol, since the word protocol means a system of rules. I only need to provide that he was the 3rd or 4th best offensive player who was healthy and had been since the SECCG, according to him.

Players out due to their actions is no different than players who transfer. They are no longer a part of the team by their decision. Injuries are based on luck.

You had Pickens and JTD. Pickens was healthy and Monken said JTD would be ready to go. That's why he was dressed out in full gear.
So, as I've stated, you had one OL and one DB out while Bama was decimated. If Bama had lost their 3rd or 4th best receiver/rb and one starting DB, the outcome would have been different.

He made plays dumbass .... Cant throw and catch passes. He made at least 8 perfect throws that any OBJECTIVE fan can see...wrs just dropped the ball. If u think bennett can carry a team on his own then i want some of what youre smoking


Too bad two of those "perfect throws" were to Georgia DBs. If a Heisman winner can't help his team win, then it was a bad pick.

JT was wearing massive padding under his jersey to protect his body. He looked like the Michelin Man.

You truly know nothing about medicine, rehab, physical therapy. These plans have progressions in them. They aren’t set in stone and vary from person to person.

Once again you can’t provide a halfway decent reason, other than acl tear rehab, as to why our best wr only played 18 snaps.

Pickens is a badass and bama benefitted big time from his absence.

Players out is the key phrase here. Not playing is another way of saying they are the same in effect. You already made this stupid transfer claim before and it still makes no sense.

You guys just keep providing. I have yet to see such a insecure fan base after winning a NC.

You would think the title was enough validation but yet puppy fans keep seeking out for more.

Keep up the entertaining good work.

Im loving the saltiness. This thread is like groundhogs day. I wake up and am reminded daily how sore and thin skinned the gumps are because of a former walkon and a bunch of freshmen in the 4th quarter.

Yeah, the 7th win of a 7 game win streak against UGA was a "fluke."

It likely was the biggest 3rd down of Bennett life and the pinnacle of his football care. Because he has no future in the game. Bryce’s biggest moment is in front of him.

If you think a game from 2008 or 2015 is relevant in a discussion about 2021, you aren’t very smart. Stick to games played by the 2021 teams.
