I'm not impressed. However, the result today is better than Mark Richt did with his own players last year. The gimmick of playing Bauta/Ramsey resulted in 4 INTs and 3 points, more interceptions than points. That game was a joke on the offensive side of the ball, and the defense couldn't stop the run when only 7 passes were thrown by UF.



I'm confused. last year it was Mark Richt's fault and this year it is Chaney's?

I know.

Did he forget about swing passes, screen passes, bootlegs, and roll-outs?

The only good offense Georgia had yesterday were busted plays that forced Eason to roll-out.

That dumb fat putz should have started calling deliberate roll-outs.

I've been one of his biggest critics the past 6-7 weeks!
I've had people tell me I should go be a Tennessee fan, that I am not a true Georgia fan, that I know nothing about football and on and on.

But let's face it. This year was toast when we struggled with Nicholls, Missouri and South Carolina. It's time to refocus on improving from week to week. If you don't think we looked better (AS A WHOLE) yesterday than we did against Vanderbilt and South Carolina, then I don't know what to tell you. Florida is a MUCH better team than the others.

The difference is that Richt was/is an offensive coach, and the buck stopped with him on all issues offensive (pun intended). Kirby is a defensive coach, and his OC will be left to handle the offensive in most instances. Therefore, Richt's turd offensive is to blame for last year, and the overall lack of offensive development this year lies with Cheney.

No. Richt turned the offensive play calling over to his OC years ago. Either it is on the Head Coach or it is o the OC. Either way it all stops at the head coach.

Not last year. Right gave play calling to Bobo who left after the 2014 season. In 2015, that turd of an offense was Richt, especially in the UF game.

Seriously? So, in your mind, Richt did not allow an OC he hired from the NFL call plays?

I'm curious. What makes you think this? Do you not realize that ultimately the head coach is responsible for all things happening on the field? Or was that just while the coach you didn't like was here?

Who do you think made the decision to start Bauta? Richt or Schottenheimer?

Think about all the criticisms we have heard from the Tennessee fans and the Arkansas fans about Chaney. What were they?
Hint: "Chaney will abandon the run and falls in love with the pass."
Have you seen ANY indication of this yet?

Now. What coach do we have on staff that came from a program that relies on the power running game, that might be in position to influence the play calling?

To answer your question. Richt made that decision. See? I can criticize Richt. You can't criticize Smart. But I think we were discussing who called the plays, were we not?

I'll gladly criticize Smart when the time comes. We just aren't at that point yet. I have patience and understand he is not playing with the type of player he wants. And I don't think for one minute he's telling Chaney to run the damn ball up the middle time and time again.

I would say the time had come after Nicholls, Vanderbilt, South Carolina and Missouri. Those are some pretty awful teams.
However, i said it in several threads today...I thought he did a good job yesterday, and saw some positive things. I have no complaints about how we looked yesterday. it's not where we want to be, but we showed a bit of improvement.

Chaney is known for falling in love with the pass and abandoning the run. Believe me....Smart has told him the kind of offense he wants and has instructed him to form his play calling to advance that. Smart wants a power run and defense game. Chaney would be slinging the ball all over the field.

Personally? I prefer the power run game and defense. I think that wins championships and is easier to maintain consistency.

I believe that Randy McMichael's opinion about our terrible offense is on target. McMichael said that rookie HCs with defensive backgrounds almost always err by running ultra conservative offenses.

McMichael puts most of the blame on Kirby Smart.

It seems unlikely that offense is operating under Chaney's philosophy give his history. Smart's Alabama influence is a more likely source of the dysfunction.

That's what i was thinking. I'm glad you agree. It's hard to blame Smart on one level. He is doing what he knows and what he feels comfortable with. As he learns, he will get better. I honestly feel like he will be a very good coach once he gets settled in.
