re: From someone who has been Anti Stetson

I don't think we've seen enough of JT, especially since his injury, to know how he'd do but, against a team like Bama and ignoring all of his other attributes, just his ability to throw open receivers would give us a huge advantage over what Stet can do.

I'd like for someone to explain why they're confident JT Daniels is worth a shite.

He's lost the starting job at two different P5 schools. He's repeatedly getting injured. Sure, he can look off defenders when he has all day in the pocket to pass. When the pocket collapses, he can't escape and either takes the sack or fumbles. In his fully healthy game against the only team he's played against with a defense that even remotely resembles Alabama's our offense only managed three points... and he threw an interception God forbid. How the hell is three points supposed to beat Alabama? How is a guy that can't stay healthy going to react when he takes a hit. What is so great about JT Daniels? Is it his mustache? I don't get the love for an unproven guy who gets hurt all the time and has proven he can't compete against elite defenses.

These are strong arguments against JT, but I think you’re missing the most important piece of the JT puzzle. That horrific leg tattoo is proof of his bad judgement. No one who would choose to mutilate themselves in such a way could have the temperament required to lead a team to a championship.

Jefferson you are a douche … no one can properly be a UGA fan besides you and Peter Dick. Get over yourselves and your self indulgent superior fan status you stupid POS….

I can't speak for JD or Peter but as someone that is on their side on this issue, I can offer you my opinion about what you just said.

Let's take James Cook for example. For most of his career here, he was the guy who always goes down on first contact, always hurt, had tons of hype but never lived up to it. I myself uttered a discouraging word or two about James Cook in the past. Damn if he didn't grow as a player and is a stone cold fricking baller now, and it actually started last year. Was I a shitty fan for the occassional eyeroll when Cook came in the game in years past? Of course not. It's what we fans do. But when he started lighting it up, and had clearly improved as a player, I was first in line to board the Cook train. Some of you were already on the Cook train from the beginning, good for you!

So what's this have to do with Stetson Bennett?

He is clearly a much better QB than what we saw in 2020. But instead of celebrating this fact, and boarding the Bennett train, there is a large, an absurdly large number of UGA fans, with some kind of cognitive dissonance that won't allow them to climb aboard.

I can understand midseason when it was still a legitimate possibility that JT would take his job back, that people would still be on "Team JT". But after the Florida game and the coaches said straight up that Stetson was QB1 going forward, I thought the Team Stet vs Team JT nonsense would evaporate, and we'd all be Team UGA and be happy that we have a 5 star Ace up the Sleeve as a backup, and enjoy the ride. Boy oh Boy was I wrong! The pronouncement by the coaches simply threw kerosene on the fire.

This is why intelligent people look at cvnts like you and scratch their heads, and mock you. Why can't you accept that Stetson is a damn good QB?

Why are so many people unable to accept that Stet is good now? Some form of cognitive dissonance.

Look at your quote up top. In two sentences, you call people:
1: douche
2: dick
3: self-indulgent
4: stupid
5: POS (piece of shite)

Why are you the way you are?

THREE POINTS OF OFFENSE DOES NOT BEAT ALABAMA.

51% now.

Deeprig you also hoped that an opposing Player gets injured and got banned for it so STFU.

That’s the point you never asked my opinion? You simply wrote me off as someone that opposes your opinion. Then you commenced to go on a diatribe about how fans that disagree with you don’t qualify to be fans. Not once asking what my opinion was.

I do not recall doing that. Apologies if Idid, but I typically respond to comments.

Edit, so can you tell me why my opinion is bad?

Because he won 4 games against weak opponents last season at the end of they year.

Honestly? Both Daniels and Bennett have pluses and minuses.

Daniels throws the ball better on deep routes. he does have a strong arm. he can throw the ball with a bit more zip and on a straighter line than Bennett on a deep ball. I think he makes reads pre-snap well. He is a good QB. A really good QB, I would say. He is not mobile and will take sacks. He cannot get out of a bad situation when the defense is closing in on him.

Bennett throws the medium ball as well as anybody. He is also good on short routes. At times he throws the ball a long way, but has to put more air under the ball to get the distance. that can allow DBs to close and make plays when a Daniels pass would get there quicker and eliminate DB plays.
Bennetts biggest weakness, imo, is he sometimes fails to protect the ball. he will throw it up and hope for a WR or RB to make a spectacular play out of a bad play. He is an excellent runner and when he takes off he rarely goes down without a first down. He can take a bad situation and prolong a drive, but then he tries to play above his ability and makes mistakes.

They both have pluses and minuses. We have seen enough of both of them to know they are both very good for what they do, and can be very bad at what they do not do well.

Honest opinion? I hope Bennett plays well on the 10th and graduates or can acclimate himself to a backup role...which won't be easy given what he has done this year.

I hope Daniels stays and gets his opportunity next season.
