Probably not a popular opinion right now ... but ...

I think we are a competent QB away from being as good as anyone in the country not named Alabama or Clemson.
No, I don't give credit for a moral victory in this game ... it's just what I believe.
We're closer than the final score of this game indicates.
Go Vols!

Georgia game could have looked different with a great QB
Can TEnNEsSeE find that QB?

 

[Madscientistvol]

The amount of hate going JGs way means that’s probably not an unpopular opinion.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

JG should have been benched for giving Georgia 12 points and momentum.

Yet, he got to play the whole game.

 

[MurphyVol]

Can this competent qb play o line?

 

[Madscientistvol]

Does it matter when JG isn’t going anywhere and might even come back next year?

 

[neostig]

Nope

 

[Volsfaninva917]

JG played like a true freshman tonight

Would a competent QB open some running lanes? JG’s one of many positions that needs improving

This might be unpopular. It is really easy to coach behind a keyboard.

The offensive line play was just as bad if not worse than quarterback play.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Can this competent qb play o line?

No but a competent QB can read a defense pre snap and make adjustments for his line

 

[preacherwebb]

Sounds like the thread I just started.

 

[tnmarktx]

JG is not a great QB but the O line got beat up. UGA was the more physical team. We'll see if and when we can be the more physical team.

Agreed.

 

[Creeker]

We are in need of a QB, but no one would have been able to move the ball with the blocking that was going on out there today. It was a free rush to JG the entire second half. Line and the running backs were both terrible.

Trolls like this should be banned. Gane wasn't close. Our QB played miserably terrible. Our OLine was outmatched. Our coaches couldn't adjust after being gut punched at the start of the 3rd. The score told the whole story. I believe in moral victories and demoralizing losses....this was the latter

 

[RockyTop140]

Offensive line is the scariest part of what happened today. These are not scrubs, they’re 5 stars with experience. I don’t understand

 

[Volsfaninva917]

The offensive line play was just as bad if not worse than quarterback play.

I get it but a 5th year QB should have the option to check at line to pick up blitzes etc. The fact that JG either can't do it or doesn't have that option speaks volumes

No we aren’t. Stop it. Get some help. We couldn’t block anyone all day. That’s not on JG.

 

[SobeVol]

Agreed! add one more solid recruiting year to tighten the talent gap and get the young guns some experience and I think we are in the hunt.

Don’t think QB is our only problem. Our O line could not get any push. You can’t win if you can’t run the ball. JG actually played pretty well in 1st half. But, he did poor job of getting rid of ball and protecting ball in 2nd.

Competent OL coach and OC away*

 

[MurphyVol]

Vols are just a good head coach, good online coach, couple of larger tailbacks, a good qb, some receivers that can get seperation, a good qb and a natural disaster that kills Saban, Smart and a couple other coaches away from competing for the SEC
