Honestly I think everyone knows Arch should be starting but you can’t exactly bench Ewers. Ewers isn’t bad, but he’s not the best QB on the team.

... I in no way think Beck played a good game, I've never thought he was a good QB.

With that being said, the only reason UGA put up 23 points on 68 yards was because Quinn kept turning the ball over. Silly int, sack fumble on the corner blitz (his responsibility to see) and Mykel Williams strip sack (if he stepped up it wouldn't have happened).

UGA had 1 successful real offensive drive all night and it was due to a trick play. Overall I think it's a little unfair to say "the only reason you even scored half the points you did was because of a Carson Beck turnover putting you in the redzone." when that's how UGA got most of their points.

Arch is more talented and Sark's offense is built more for him. Sark loves throwing the deep ball, Arch is a great deep thrower and Quinn is subpar in that category.

At this moment in the season I am perfectly happy sticking with Quinn. I think he gives us the best opportunity to win, and has the big game experience. Watching Arch he still has some young tenancies, he always wants to make the big play instead of taking whats given to him. '

Arch is going to be a star, but I'd rather see him next year.

I did watch most of the game including the part where Arch played. He was scared shitless the entire time. He had never faced a defense like that. He may be better than Quinn but, imo he has not proven it yet.

Fair. If you can win it all with Ewers, might as well go with experience. If that begins to fade (which would be shocking considering UT’s schedule), I’d start letting Arch get some real reps.

Beck had 3 turnovers against Texas.

The difference was Georgia could move the ball and score when he wasn't making mistakes and it didn't make a bit of difference who was the QB for Texas because your entire offense was dominated by their defense.

But if you want to blame sack fumbles on your QB and not recognize the greater issues, be my guest.

He arguably had a worst performance the week before.

If were being quite honest, most college offenses would put up 23 points with that field position.

Yes

There are some greater issues, poor execution to start. Offensive line played sloppy, UGA was able to rush 4, for most of the first half and get pressure. In the second half they started to block better and the offense got into a rhythm. UGA then adjusted and started sending 5-6 to get pressure.

The main issue was poor QB play compounded by a lack of run game. Overall even though UGA didn't have to worry about us running the ball, we still had receivers running open all night. We just had to get them the ball. If we were able to get the run going then pressure gets taken off Quinn. We go from 3&10's to 3 &3's.

I don't know how you expect good QB results in that type of environment. Were they not throwing to guys wide open? Were they missing guys badly on their throws? Failing to make any reads or make good decisions?

If your line is getting beaten with 4, and your receivers are covered, what can a QB do?

I don't really pay attention to those games the way I would an Alabama game, but I don't remember a bunch of those.

I can show you many plays with Milroe or Nico on Saturday if you want to see that kind of stuff.

The main thing with Quinn was missing reads and not stepping up into the pocket. We had guys open, he just wasn't seeing them.

Man, I was pulling for y'all on Saturday. Deboer is a good coach, he'll start winning those close ones.

Way it appears to me ---- more of a head case now and against

If I am on another good defensive team playing Tx, I am not scared of him. He has no ability to avoid a rusher and appears to be a sitting duck back there. He knows this and bails at the first sign of pressure. If you look at his sacks from this year and last year (except for the sack/fumble by Ga this past game), many qb's wouldn't have even been tackled. Additionally, he won't look deep and when he does, it's rarely a good pass.
I sure hope his injury has been the reason why he hasn't been effective recently, but I'm not so sure. It's very likely due to the competition being better.

Basically, color me unimpressed right now. I think he is pretty accurate on the short to medium routes, but he is mostly benefitting as a product of Sark's system. Hell, even Casey Thompson and Hudson Card moved the ball on a lot of teams.

It's above my pay grade, but it didn't seem like he was the problem for Texas against Georgia to me.


He was a big problem. Although Georgia DL certainly confused and beat our OL on a few plays, a lot of the other pressure came from Ewers not stepping up and escaping the pocket when it was available.

There were also quite a few plays with guys running free for potential TD's that he decided to just check down too quickly (from the Film Guys tape videos).

Not saying he was the only issue, as the entire offense didn't play well, but he was a large part of it.

Actually it was a 30-8 game if your DB didnt set up a score on the 8 yard line.

Feel free to take off of multiple Georgia's TD's if we are going to take away points set up by a good defensive turnover.

100%

Quinn worked the pocket really well all year pre injury see: the Michigan game. If anything that was his strength vs Arch.

Now he looks like the '22 Ewers.
