How can you defend JG after this?

[jonnon111]

I support JG. I do not support this 2nd half performance. But how many of y'all were saying that at halftime? Pick his fault. 2 fumbles 50% his fault. Imho.

So it sucked, but he had us in it.

JG sucks ass but Will Friend should be left at an Athens Greyhound station

Pruitt continues to ride both so at some point maybe we question his judgement as a coach. We all have talked about how Butch employed inferior assistants and couldn't get the right guys on the field. It's all looking very familiar

Dude has no rear view mirror. Never has. Hate it, but c'mon. Give another kid a shot

 

[Silky_Johnson]

Dude the oline hasn't even blocked for him, I mean it's hard to hate on the guy when he gets blasted 1.5 seconds into the play. He had a very bad INT. But other than that I dunno what the dude is supposed to do with one second to throw

They are blitzing on 3rd down with more than we can block. He’s holding the ball too long. 4 years of the same Ol’ JG

 

[DonjoVol]

O- line playing like crap and no running game whatsoever. Doesn't matter who the QB is. No support equals 20 plus point losses to superior teams.

 

[C-south]

How can you defend the O line? How can you defend the play calling? How can you defend the atrocious D?

 

[lifeVol]

Far beyond time to bench him. No reason to continue playing JG this year. Nothing has changed. He is a 5th year senior that makes worse decisions than a true freshman.

True, and with less athletic ability

Butch employed his buddies as assistants and we ripped him for it. Why don't we hold Pruitt to the same standard with Friend?

3words: 5th year senior

 

[PandamoniumReigns]

TN will not compete for the East next year if JG is here.

The apologists will blame the RBs, the OLine, the coach, the cheerleaders, etc. Everyone played bad except JG.

JG is, at best, a nice backup for a mid major program.

He has singlehandedly turned this close game into a blowout win for GA.

 

[DNBVOL]

Agreed. Time to move on already. Permanently

Today, I feel is the beginning of JP's long, slow goodbye. It'll take a couple more years but it'll happen. We haven't been serious about winning as a program in a very long time

 

[PandamoniumReigns]

Easier said than done when you get abosuletly blasted right away. Just saying. Shrout, Bailey, Maurer would of all fumbled there too

I've seen plenty of QBs get blasted and not fumble as much as JG. It's a pattern for him.

 

[gr82batnvol]

They will. They have all their chips on him

 

[Brak]

Tell me, please? Poor decisions the entire 2nd half when we had a chance to win....and it’s been the same for 4 years. God I can’t wait until Bailey is ready

They will find a way, they always do.

Sure but QBs usually have time to brace for the impact. JG doesn't even have that lol

 

[rdk4121]

JG was awful today, but he's not the only one. The offensive line was embarrassing today, full stop. They were worse than JG, even though he was still terrible. He made bad decision after bad decision in the second half. Play calling was bad as well. On the JG interception it was third and less than 1, yet we do some silly long developing pass play.

 

[DevinF25]

That o line has not given him more than 1 second..no run game and 12 stupid penslties.... and you blame the qb!

Completely agree. I don’t love JG and I never have. However; our Offensive Line should be embarrassed. Terrible performance.

 

[ftsandersvol]

It's easy to play defense when you know the other team can't run the ball.

 

[BearCat204]

How can you defend the O line? How can you defend the play calling? How can you defend the atrocious D?

Bruh, the defense was great today. Hard to stop when your offense gives them less than 30 yards to go 4 straight series

 

[Alto1]

Doesn't matter what we think, Jeremy is infatuated with him.

A lot of truth in this statement.

I don’t understand it. No future with JG.

 

[JJobe1810]

JG is trash! Every year it’s a loss to the same big 3. If he’s the best we can get that’s on the coaches.

The defense was absolutely terrible outside of the one goaline stand.

 

[TN_Transplant]

How can you defend the O line? How can you defend the play calling? How can you defend the atrocious D?

The Defense stepped up. The goal line stops. Holding for field goals after 2 turnovers.

But the Defense can only hold for so long, after too many 3 and outs, they tire out.

 

[Bleed-Orange]

The opponent matters folks.

There isn't a defense close to that one in the rest of the league

Oh. We don't play Alabama this year?
