[quote]Nothing wrong with the offense in the 1st half.[/quote] Yes, but when adversity struck, UGA was not explosive enough to overcome it and score points. Mostly because the QB was out of his depth....

[quote]Against almost every team in CFB this isn't an issue[/quote] The "almost" is the problem. We need to beat the teams who can create that issue....

[quote]So this didn't happen when we tried the opposite approach?[/quote] Of course it happened. UGA isn’t very good offensively....

[quote]You don't think getting 1st woulda helped against Bama in the 3rd qtr? [/quote] [quote]Obviously first downs are better than the alternative,[/quote]...

[quote]If you get 1st downs, you are taking away the amount of explosive plays the other team can make, whilst wearing down their defense and resting your’s. It is a tried and true formula[/quote] Obviously first downs are better than the alternative, but it’s ultimately very hard to score a lot of...

Our best offensive players are not nearly as good as Bama’s, so it stands to reason that that strategy would likely not work nearly as well for UGA....

While I am no fan of how Kirby has handled the offense the last couple years, your OP title is seriously lacking context when compared to what he actually said....

[quote]3rd down passing efficiency is a huge stat. If you are getting 1st downs, you are holding the ball, wearing out the defense, and resting your defense. This has pretty much been Bamas philosophy and has been Smart’s. Get 1st downs when you need to. Wear them down. Don’t turn the ball over. Tha...

Never heard of this guy...

[quote]LSU game? [/quote] Yes [quote]you're projecting Fields has a better year in '18?[/quote] Not necessarily. I am saying that, at the the very least, giving him a chance with Fromm being a mess at LSU at least demonstrates a willingness to have a real QB competition that Fields could actual...

[quote]So why wasn't Tua the starting QB at Bama his freshman year? [/quote] I don’t know, but they got him in there just in time. Can’t say the same for us, unfortunately....

[quote]Seems like the “public” is fickle[/quote] A lot has happened since then....

[quote]He scored 2 of our 5 TD's, one with a 17 point lead after Fromm and co. drove the field and the other with a 19 point lead with a few minutes left in the game.[/quote] I mean no one else really stands out, but I’ll grant that that is a debatable point. It doesn’t really matter and is really ...

[quote]Fields should have started day one, for the whole season, and fromm should have been on the bench, because kirby didn't honor competition, and blah blah moron talk blah blah"[/quote] That isn’t my argument, for the record....

[quote]Crow don't be obtuse. You know there's a huge difference in year 2 vs year 1 with a QB.[/quote] Not that big of a difference. By week 1 of 2019 at the absolute latest, Justin Fields (in a new offense at OSU) was a significantly better football player than Jake Fromm. There is nothing anyo...

[quote]So why then did we have only one shitty game in 18? [/quote] Tennessee was also a pretty shitty game. Ironically, Fields was UGA’s biggest playmaker in that one....

[quote]I fully expected Fromm/Fields would have been 1a/1b going into Spring and Fall camp[/quote] Nothing about how the 2018 season was handled indicates that that would have been the case. I mean Fromm was a disaster against LSU and Fields still didn’t get a shot....

I don’t have a child, but learning how to pick yourself up and keep moving is one of the more valuable lessons one can learn....

[quote]It’s definitely a mix of spread and pro style[/quote] Any “pro style” at this point is going to include a lot of spread concepts...

[quote]If you’re banking on Kirby being the next Saban, the odds aren’t in your favor.[/quote] No one is banking on him being the next Saban....
