Agree with you on most points. However, Bama would gameplan to stop the run with Stetson at QB and force him to sling it. That is not a situation I want to be in. JT behind center forces them to be honest on D.
J.T. should be out there if he's healthy enough to play.

This is what I was about to say. Especially in the age of the transfer portal.
And Stetson has been more than serviceable as a backup QB. No idea why our fans shite on him as much as they do.

I see it as they are wanting to see Beck or BVG in garbage time, not Bennett.

Technically, our backup lost each game.
2017 fromm was backup to eason
2018 fields was backup to fromm

Fields did not lose us the 2018 game.
And Fromm was obviously the starter going into the 2017 game, so slightly different situations.

Stetson usually makes good decisions, but he sometimes forces insane stuff. If he's careful with the football, he's solid. But I don't know if "solid" wins you a title. Not these days anyway.

shouldn't we be giving Beck some reps in the 4th quarter when we are up by 30? ... Getting Beck reps when game isn't on the line seems smart to me
Should we? Don't we owe it to our defense to not trot a QB out there who doesn't give a shite about preserving their shutout and can't be bothered to even make an effort to tackle a defender that intercepted his pass?
If Beck was dialed in and bought in to the team mission, I'd agree... but it was pretty clear that when he didn't get what he wanted again this season, that he was out. He'll be gone at the end of the year (only reason he is still here is insufficient credits to transfer). If the kid is gone when the season is up, no, I don't think we should be wasting snaps on him this year. I'd like to see BVG getting some snaps in a few blowouts late, but I can understand that he's not running *our* offense very much as the fulltime scout team QB. Hopefully in the Charleston Southern game at least, we can get him some snaps.

The reason we ran the ball so much Saturday was Pittman refused to stack the box and only played 3 down. Dropping 8 the whole game. The were sold out on not giving up big plays. And KS and Monk were happy just taking that, as anyone should. No reason to throw when you don’t have to. As the old adage says, when you throw the ball only 3 things can happen and 2 are bad!
Plus I think SB ability to be Mobil helped with the running game, and so did the offense staff considering one if the first plays was a designed QB run to just show it to let Ark know it was there.
I agree there needs to be development, but not when the starter is hurt. You play that guy that can win games and that’s SB.
You have a problem with a game manager NOW, when for 3 years everyone was perfectly happy with it!

SB played bad against Bama in the second half no doubt!
But the defense played bad the whole game, whereas Stetson was about as good as any UGA QB has been in the first half.
Stetson was torching UF till he took a late hit in a TD throw to go up 14, then tried to come back and played injured, not hurt, injured!
Can he beat Bama, I have no idea, but what QB has shown they could. UGAs defense , special teams, and running game always gives us a chance.
But he can absolutely beat everyone else on the schedule including Florida. Florida doesn’t play defense well and SB doesn’t play DB!

Preach! I'm not sure why everyone shites on SB. He saved our bacon, pun intended, vs the Hawgs. He put up big #'s til Bama....and he played no part in the 44 points Bama scored. He played great until injured v UF, and again played no part in the 41 points scored. Most QB2's look like Beck, not SB. And losing QB1 is season ending for most teams. We're #2 in the nation for crying out loud!
Bottom line imho: This team with its nasty D, in year 2 of Monken, can absolutely beat Bama with SB. Won't be easy but more than possible. A healthy JTD is much preferred and opens up the playbook, no doubt. I think history will be very kind to SB....or at least it should be.

Stetson is a game manager at best
This statement is dumb. Stetson is a gunslinger and has the propensity to force the ball onto tight coverage. If anything he's reckless with the ball. That's not what game managers do.

He is good, but the moment we face a smart defense they will get their hands up and it'll be batted ball after batted ball. Everyone seems to forget he isn't the starter for a reason.

I see it differently, the playbook is more open with a mobile QB like Stetson Bennett. But JT has the better arm, not that Stetson's sucks, it doesn't, but JT's is just better. And I think they are both = in the brain part of it all.
At this point in the season, the halfway mark, who is really the backup at this point? If JT is 100% healthy and ready to go, do you really sit Bennett back down while he's playing hot?
I think JT hurt his way into being the backup now, like Eason did.
Who is getting all the first team reps for the majority of the season so far? Stetson Bennett. Who has started the majority of games? Stetson Bennett. Who has a ridiculous QBR thus far? Stetson Bennett.
I'm not saying what's right and what's wrong, I'm just saying how it is.
