All you are doing is agreeing with me that there are reasons why a more talented player doesn’t start.
I never said a more talented player doesn't start as a freshman. I said when Tua started he started from then on when healthy. JTD was healthy but didn't start which means Bennett was the starter.

It means the guy got hurt, which cost him his job. Durability is very important for a qb, and he proved he didn’t have that.
That makes no sense. You don't play a guy because he's gotten hurt in the past?

Do you remember that td? Same type pass play that bowers dropped vs clemson.
So injuries cost us 2 obvious tds vs Clemson, and maybe more.
You're arguing a guy who had 10 catches and 1 TD all year against a guy that had 56 catches and 13 TDs. Seems like every injury you guys had made your team better, not worse.

We played him far less than we wanted to, but that was certainly better than not at all.

You keep claiming it but the Georgia sites said JTD was healthy.
Both were hurt for extended periods of time. Once a QB is hurt for an extended period of time, the damage is done to the their PT.

Ease back by playing 7 and then 20.
Yep. Both are far less than 60.

You mean play less than he could? So much for his competitiveness you were touting.
Of course you dont understand the concept of "compromise".
No need to be reckless and risk a high draft pick by playing all the snaps, but if you are super competitive, there is also no need to sit out completely as you work towards being full strength for the combine.
Its possible to do both, which is exactly what Pickens did. A less competitive kid sits out completely.

We agree that Tua didnt start because he was a freshman and Hurts had a lot of experience.

What part of "durability is important" do you not understand? Once again, the QB position is different than the others. Coaches only bench a Qb for simple reasons well beyond your understanding.

We are talking about the Clemson game. None of these injuries helped in that game. In fact, 2 of them cost us TD's.
Young went to shite without 2 of his WR's. Imagine how shitty he would have been dealing with the situation JTD faced vs Clemson.

I guess they wanted to play him more than 18 plays but didn't even though they could.

Nonsense. When your best QB is healthy you play him.

He was going to play 60 plays in a 56 play game with, as you argued, Georgia rotating their players a lot.

He was so competitive he decided to play fewer plays than a month earlier vs helping his team in the biggest game of his career...

Tua didn't start due to limited knowledge and Hurts being a talented player. When he did start he started for the rest of his career unless injured.

Coaches play the best player. If a QB has started and doesn't start when he is ready he isn't the starter. Daniels' injury actually helped Georgia.

I guess you're counting Washington and his part of a catch per game as someone who would have had a TD.
If Young had all but one receiver in the NC game, and had an upgrade at another receiving position, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

When you get a pick 6, the opponent gets the ball back. It would be stupid to play a WR on Defense. Even you know that.

Thats not how QB selection works during a season. Continuity matters at QB. Availability is crucial. I told you that weeks ago, and you still dont understand that.

He averaged 55 plays per game in 2020. We obviously didnt rotate the studs all that much.

No compromise would have been ZERO plays. Thankfully his Dr and Parents allowed him to play some. Ya know, a compromise.

So multiple reasons why a more talented player sits on the bench? I knew you had it in you.

Our passing O clearly downgraded with the JTD and Pickens injuries. Bennett and AD Mitchell were good backups though, so we were still able to win the national title with them.

Washington is 6'8 and scored a TD vs Bama on a similar play. due to that height advantage. If he can do that vs Bama, he can do that vs Clemson.
And dont forget that OG injury costing us a 2nd TD.

That's just gibberish that has nothing to do with Pickens not playing more.

It works that way for every team. If the starting QB gets injured he starts. If the team doesn't start him he isn't the starter.

Which contradicts your claim Georgia rotates its receivers for health reasons.

I guess he figured playing more a month earlier was less risky.

Not a more talented player that has started before. You continue to try to analogize two different things.

Your coaching staff doesn't agree with you.

Yea, a guy with a part of a catch per game and 1 TD all year is a good argument as to why Georgia scored 3 points.

The Pick 6 took O snaps away from UGA. There is no denying that reality.
If we got the ball back needing to score, we would have had 4+ more plays. Thats where those 2 extra snaps you are obsessed with would have happened.
quote:

No team would re insert the starter after a prolonged injury, with a high possibility of a reoccurrence of injury, while the backup QB was doing very well in a lot of wins, as Bennett was doing. Smart didnt. Saban wouldnt. Belichick didnt.

Looks like the compromise was 20 or below. They deemed that to be low enough risk.
