You can say that about anyone . Lmao. Any qb COULD develop a bunch of skills they don't currently have.
Nobody is denying his current skill sets, the stats show exactly what his current skill set is and that's lower level this year in the SEC, you however are telling everyone he's going to be the next Joe Montana. "Given the time to develop"... I wonder how you feel about our coaches giving him time to develop, and he had better hurry up and develop because the QB room gets competitive next month.
I really like our coaching staff. I’ve been open about saying the one thing I disagree with is how PRUITT handled the qbs. Now I agree he gave Maurer a good amount of time but he was also transparent in his intentions to have JG be the “hero”. I’m not nearly as concerned about that this year as I am the damage it could’ve done to the future of that position. By showing the dedication he’s shown in JG (not that JG doesn’t deserve it) and openly criticizing his other two (one with serious future potential) he’s essentially trading (possibly) 2 SEC championships in 2021-2022 for another lower tier bowl in 2020. Doing it this way (musical qb) means we are starting from farther behind in 2021 after JG is gone should he stay healthy in 2020.
FIfyI'm usually not the spelling police but damn, you consistently call JG inconsistant which isn't a word. If you want to reapeat it ad nauseum then at least get it right. Lmao
He is pretty consistently mediocre with a bad game or six sprinkled in and some good appearances off the bench. Pretty much like any decent qb.
Top 30 in the country for qb rating on the year says he has been pretty consistent with a few down moments.
We score enough with him. We just won 5 straight. We scored enough to win 9 on the year with him but lost two early due to defensive lapses.
Terrible takes like usual.
What don’t you understand? Stats only show the final results, not the journey of how they got there! We’re talking about a qb splitting time with another 75/25. Of coarse no matter how good his 25% was he’s not going to appear on your stat sheet. If you WATCHED the games then you’d know he’s nowhere near as bad as that stat sheet would suggest. Just ask Kirby Smart, Joe Morehead, Nick Saban and even Mark Stoops. I live just outside of Athens and I promise you even the fans hope to god they are looking at ANYONE other than BM next year.
OK my guy. I see you fail to realize how stats with rates and percentages are calculated and what they mean.
Actually no.... that’s what you fail to understand. I promise you if you asked any coach at any level how much stats mean to them vs game tape they’d ALL tell you “horse s***”. When it comes to qbs they care more about how often a qbs passes hit within their receivers catch radius. They don’t care how many were caught. They care about where said qbs passes finish in relation to his target that would’ve created YAC rather than how many incompletions. They worry more about pocket presence vs sack rate. Why? Because each one of those tells them how to defend him. Not stats! If they only looked at stats, much like yourself, they’d see 47% and think “inaccurate” therefore play close to the Los to stop the run and force him to beat them with his arm. Game tape shows he can and will. If they only looked at stats and seen sack rate they’d think “blitz”. Can’t do that because he’ll find a running lane and won’t have as many to stop him on the second level if he gets through. Game tape shows he’s been traditionally sacked only a few times. The rest were 7 yard sacks turned into a 2 yard loss or a 5 yard gain because he escaped. Trust me when I tell you the last one they want to see across the Los is BM. Even as a true freshman. Want proof stats don’t mean s***? Look back at the fan that posted a thread on our board hoping to see JG rather than BM. Dude was literally scared of the possibility of facing Maurer and it’s not only fans. It’s coaches as well regardless what your stats say.
