Looks like Tony Robinson was exactly right.

[BigOrangeTrain]

Everyone else has done there job too.
If the QB isn’t capable of doing his everyone else is irrelevant

Travis Stephens would disagree.

BS

Clausen played like garbage in the swamp 2001. Without him we get completely destroyed. The QB isnt everything.

 

[CA_Vol]

He has been saying for almost a year that the players didn't like JG and didn't like playing with him so they didn't play hard for him. He said he could see it in the way the players acted on the field and that JG just didn't inspire the team at all. Looks like a different team with Mauer.

Well I’ve been saying it for 2 years, so I want all the credit.

You’ve lost your mind.
The QB is everything.
Where is Butch Jones without josh Dobbs?

The QB job gets easier with good offensive protection. Not arguing who is better or not. Just dissapointed if the team played down only because they didn't like JG at QB.

17 for 25, 168 yards isn't that bad, especially when you have a running back having the game he did. Clearly, that day was the Stephens show, but Clausen didn't play that badly.

It has nothing to do with “like” and everything to do with confidence

I just gave you an example that defeats your argument. Would you like more?

No you didn’t.
Nobody would argue that crazy legs Was a qb that lost the confidence of the team.
They are not even close to the same thing.

BM tonight blows up your argument

Yeah, I used the wrong word. Thanks.

 

[sjt18]

I do.

Right. You're just as effective working with a poor leader than a good leader, right? No. I'm sorry. The only people who don't get worse behind bad leadership... are people who aren't doing anything to start with.

 

[sjt18]

I don't know who you think you are trying to read something into what I've said. I am what the hell I say I am. Nothing more or less. I don't BS like so many in here.

If you think you are so great that good and bad leadership do not impact you... then you are very likely nothing like who you say or think you are.

 

[Advol]

STUPID thread. Does NOT matter who is QB. Have you watched the game. The HIT on QB that lead to touch down......SUMS it up,.
We are weak, slow and young. When the line starts blocking and NOT being manhandled...……..things happen.

 

[TennMan101]

It’s sad, but appears to be true. I don’t know what’s happened behind the scenes, but this team is clearly more supportive of BM.

And BM has only been here for 9-10 months.

 

[jarnol32]

If I elect to work for a company, I don't produce less due to an inept leader. And, I've had poor leaders in the past. I do what I'm suppose to do as well as I can regardless.

Way to pat yourself on the back... What you do at work has nothing to do with Tennessee football, and honestly no one cares.

An intern at Alabama.

 

[Other_Guy]

I just said that same thing but I don’t know how you start him game 1 over JG with JG being good in practice. Game 2 is a different story

The entire team played like garbage in game 1. You dont pull last years starter after the 1st game. Put him in after half time at BYU, maybe, but that doesnt mean he wont make multiple mistakes in his 1st action and they still lose. Then he starts the Florida game and it goes similar to how Florida treated Auburn. The entire team is still bad. They're playinf much better, but its harder to tell because the competition continues to improve.

What if you're taught how to do you job poorly?

 

[Vold hawg]

JG should never play another down.

Apparently you do. Go stuff it. Work, playing ball for UT, same principle. UT football is a business and it's not run very well.

 

[Slydell]

What if you're taught how to do you job poorly?

Great question. Depends on who the person is being taught. I think many would perform poorly and fail while some could look around them and see the right way and thrive. We're all different in how we're wired.

T-Rob is such a straight shooter, if he says it take it to the bank.

Of course you do. You may not know it, but you do.

It’s almost like saying that coaching doesn’t matter.
