condition of Jarrett

Wait a minute. You just saw Chryst go 7-19 with no tds and 2 interceptions in a 50-17 loss....and you want him to start over the 4th most efficient qb in the SEC who NEVER turns the ball over and who has started and finished all 5 of our wins this year?

Maybe the whole football thing just isn’t for you.

If JG is healthy, he's going to start, so it's somewhat irrelevent, but Drew Lock has 8 interceptions on the season, 6 of which came in only three games, and 3 games with 50% or lower completion percentage.

Would you consider him a better or worse QB than JG?

Let's bury this "JG sucks" idiocy. As nobody is playing within reach of Tua, lets just take a look at other SEC Quarterbacks.

Splits versus AP ranked opposition:

Drew Lock
56.4% comp 5.43ypa 4 TD 3 INT sacked 9 times

Jake Fromm:
64.6%, 7.88ypa 6 TD 3 INT sacked 7 times

Kellen Mond (A&M):
55.9% 8.35ypa 6TD 3INT sacked 14 times

Jordan Ta'amu (Ole Miss):
43.3% 5.18ypa 1TD 3INT sacked 5 times

Nick Fitzgerald (Miss State):
50.6% 5.95ypa 2TD 5INT sacked 9 times

Stidham:
64.2% 7.21ypa 5TD 2INT sacked 7 times

JG:
64.8% 8.36ypa 7 TD 0 INT sacked 11 times



Now for SEC Competition:
Drew Lock
58.2% 6.43ypa 8TD 7INT sacked 12 times

Jake Fromm (didn't play Bama and the one good D he played he was horrible)
65.8% 9.08ypa 14TD 5INT sacked 10 times

Kellen Mond (A&M):
58% 7.20ypa 9TD 8INT sacked 25 times

Jordan Ta'amu (Ole Miss):
59.9% 8.14ypa 7TD 6INT sacked 22 times

Nick Fitzgerald (Miss State):
50.3% 5.57ypa 6TD 6INT sacked 18 times

Stidham (hasn't played Bama yet)
60.5% 6.75ypa 6TD 4INT sacked 14 times

JG:
59.9% 7.76ypa 8TD 2INT sacked 14 times


There isn't a QB in the SEC outside of Tua that, everything considered, is outplaying JG. He's not putting up yards because he's not throwing the ball enough. When he does throw he's very effective. The problem is he's getting hit after release. He's actually been sacked at a lower clip than his SEC bretheren.
 
JG has one of the best completion percentages in the SEC and that is incredible considering literally 1/4 of his incompletions are dropped passes.

I literally think any KC supporters at this point are Russian bots trying to undermine Volunteer unity.

That's a good one right there, boy.

I understand the numbers. And have said he gives us the best chance of winning than anyone in our roster, which isn’t saying much. Of all the QBs you listed, where would JG fall if you had to pick them to be your QB? He’s the best we have, and I’ll back him until the end but he would be at the bottom of all the guys on your list.
 
JG must learn how to see the pressure coming better, or he’s not going to take any major strides forward.

Right now all he seems to do from week to week is get knocked out of games.

I’m not saying he can’t thow well, because I think he’s a great passer with NFL arm talent.

He just needs to learn the finesse aspects of the game. Peyton was the master of those things.

Peyton use to get teams to jump all the time when he was at UT. How often does JG do that with his
voice?

Who’s the QB coach, anyways?

Onto the subject at hand. Well it looked like JG was going to run into his own end zone. Your probably right about the interception. JG would have taken the sack. We just gonna have to disagree with who we would like to see at QB. But that is ok. Maybe next year JG will have 10 minutes to find an open receiver. Did you ever have a problem with them time it takes him to get rid of the ball. We know the truth though. There are numerous times JG should have been intercepted but wasn't. The % for not having an interception was not because of his precision.
That literally makes no sense.

Those numbers don't back that statement. Any of those other QBs playing with this OL would probably have worse numbers and JG with those teams would likely be even better.

Thank you!!!! Good grief. You guys are so fickle. The kid will probably be 4th on the all time passing list when he leaves here. Keep talking. As Pruitt rebuilds the OL he’s only going to get better.

(Before you guys blast that prediction, he’ll need roughly 2300 a season moving forward. And he’ll do it.)

Are you trying to KC is in the class a Drew Lock? There is a reason he lost his starting job in Cali. Probably the same reason he didn't win the starting job here. He does get rid of the ball quicker than JG. Too bad he doesn't seem to know where it is going part of the time. Praying JG can play Saturday.

I didn't mention Chryst in my post at all.

With the amount of third down false starts our line has done, you want to start doing hardcounts?
 
That would definitely require coordination with a Friend and probably more practice time than would make sense for this season to be ready for prime time.

I had a good laugh at
With the amount of third down false starts our line has done, you want to start doing hardcounts?

It instantly reminded me of the story about the guy whose job was to coach people on how to toast Pop Tarts.

One of the steps on the instructions was to "insert the pastry vertically into the toaster" and the guy was like,
they're reading toaster directions and you're going to throw the vertical concept at them? LOL.

It's well worth the two minutes this morning if you could use a laugh.

 
JG has proven himself to the team and the coaches in the toughness department. He is growing and showing potential. I say, don't burn him out to make it to a low tier bowl game and risk his health, I like Chryst to play and I think he will do well. He can pick apart the Vandi defensive back as well as any QB on our roster. I think our chances are just as good with KC as they would be with JG in this one, maybe better based on health.

All that aside, even if this was for the Natty in a different world, he may have sustained a concussion and at the end of the day this is a game. I would rather lose than see a young man sacrifice his future and his health for a notch on the UT belt.
 
Man, I hope JG can play and at a high level because we need this win. It is questionable if we can win with him playing, but highly questionable is KC plays. I like that KC gets the ball out quickly, but we don't need the costly turnovers we had in the Missouri game. If you go by Jeff Sagarin's football ratings we have much better wins over Auburn (19), Kentucky(38) and a close loss to South Carolina(35) than their Mississippi(60) and Arkansas(99) wins. At the same time, Sagarin has us at 59 and Vandy at 63 and with both teams looking for a bowl birth this is just too close to call for me.
