Different day, same old lame statement. You and your ilk are in the vast minority on the assessment of our QB's ability. In fact, can someone put up a simple Yes/No type survey up, just to build some statistical data to see if my hypothesis is correct? I don't have the time at work, nor do I have the hands on experience to do it correctly at this time on the site.If JG is starting, we are screwed.
THANK YOU!!!!!!IMO, and this is strictly from that clip and not seeing the entire field, it appears he should have read the safety coming up on his left and realized a blitz was coming from the LBer. That sack is actually one I'd blame on JG more than the Oline, again based only on the clip.
It is tough for an Olineman to see all of the defensive movement once in their stance. Thus JG has to read this movement and be aware a blitz is coming and make adjustments accordingly.
With all that said the O line did look lost many times this season and there could be multiple causes for that besides lack of effort or ability.
Edit...I just rewatched that clip...JG is terribly at fault there and I would hope in the film room he was taken to task for his obvious laser focus on his right side pre-snap. It is also apparent that he is throwing that way and doesnt bother to even acknowledge there are players anywhere on the filed except to his right.
This stuff can be coached out of him but he can learn simple stuff like this by watching film himself.
If you believe this you lack any fundamental understanding of football, JG gave everything he could with a paper Oline. Next year he should have more room to breathe and will thrive.Next year will be another hard year. Might as well look towards the future and give the young guys the reins. We know what JG gives us. Mediocrity.
Thanks coach. Maybe you should try playing the position with defensive linemen and linebackers breathing down your throat before you can hand the ball to a running back or set up for a short pass before being drilled in the back by unblocked defensive players. Despite all that, he still was had very good stats and QB ratings.He was a part of that as well. You all act like he’s adequately sliding protection or reading blitz’s. He isn’t, as a 3rd year player.

Good hearing from you, Jarrett.Thanks coach.

I always love the equating of effort and performance. Trying hard and sucking is an everyone gets a trophy mentality.If you believe this you lack any fundamental understanding of football, JG gave everything he could with a paper Oline. Next year he should have more room to breathe and will thrive.
He had plenty of time to look left and make an adjustments.We’re in a 5 wide set with no RB to pick up the blitz. JG had zero time to even release the ball. Hardly his fault
THANK YOU!!!!!!
The guy posted this clip thinking it was proof that JG was just not being protected, when in reality he didn't protect himself by changing the protection or saying "boggey left, watch the Mike!" Why didn't he?? BECAUSE HE DIDN'T THINK TO!! How can we know this??? Because the MLB put him on his butt, and never saw it coming!
So many people on here just watch football and NEVER learn to actually understand it.
It's been obvious since last year, he's just not a good QB. He's Nathan Petetman-esque..
And for people to actually want him in there is insanity!!
Never said he was the sole culprit. Although, many of his defenders willfully toss the entirety of his sacks on the o-line. It’s a perfect storm of failure.We saw what JG could do when he had adequate blocking vs Auburn. No one’s claiming he’s a Heisman contender, just not the sole culprit of our offensive woes.
And even at 2 freshmen Ill take it cause at least those two will have the size to stand a chance. I would expect some freshmen coverage mistakes but I we hope we have the luxury of starting Wright.Assuming we get Wright (we all hope he signs with us), starting 2 true FR on the OL is a risky proposition. But honestly, it wouldnt surprise me if that happens.
