QB choice biggest mistake all season.

[BloomuVol]

I think we would have done better with Dormandy this year. That is how bad I believe JG is.

Just because you believe it doesnt make it right. You say JG cant read defenses yet support the turnover machine that is dormady? There's a reason he is riding the pine at Houston.

Everyone has a opinion. Obviously the main point I'm making is JG did not show this year or last year that he is SEC caliber. Do you agree ?

 

[BloomuVol]

The question to ask is this: Is JG ever going to be an SEC level QB? NO. Time to cut bait and move on.

You know this how? How many have you coached? Ok then shut up. Would you honestly walk into the middle of a surgery and just decide for the doctor that the patient wont make it, so might as well kill them then and there?

 

[k-town_king]

He's behind Franks and Bentley in rating. That's not better than them. My god, you can't even even count. He's behind both of them in yards, completions, TDs, rating. Only ahead of Franks in percentage. That is not better.

Imo. Not stats. Like said I don't care if they finished ahead in rating I think JG is better and will be better next year.

Of course he was behind in yards and completions because the scheme and talent around him limited passing attempts. Tds also. We had one of the highest run/ pass ratios. It was even worse in the red zone which limited chance for more td passes on good drives.

We will see next year. JG will definitely be starting so hopefully I'm right. That way we can win some games.

No, you are declaring that because of a few deficiencies that could be remedied with more coaching and experience, that he will never get it and shouldn't be given a chance, with that mentality you are such a weak quitter I wouldn't want you around me in real life, it would seem you have as much of a spine as John Currie.

If someone watched thousands of surgeries they may be able to make a judgement on the surgery outcome. If you have watched thousands of football games you absolutely are qualified to make a decision on a QB based on what you have observed over the years.

No, you are absolutely not, that's why you are a fan and not a coach.

The ability to respond to pressure in a game is something that coaching has little influence on. You either have the ability or you do not. In other words I'm saying you are born with it for the most part.

I believe there are many sport fans who if they had chosen a coaching path could run circles around some of the coaches who have made it their living. I bet there a couple dozen here right here on Volnation and no this is not a joke.

They have more wins, doubt they had negative yards in a full quarter, etc. Everything says they are better, but you're too stubborn/ignorant to see it. Or just too far down this path. The lack of interceptions are due to scheme, too. But, you won't acknowledge that.

Let this sink in....Dormady wasn't even in the 2 deep at QB for Houston this year. He was 3rd string...only completed 2 passes of of 5 attempts for 8 yards. This was a mediocre to decent Houston team in the American Athletic Conference!

And you are definitely not one of them. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahabahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha[inhale] hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha

 

[k-town_king]

Bentley has double the TDs, 800 more yards, 2 percentage points on completions, 14 points on the rating. But yeah, JG is better. You're so dumb.

Chill out with insults chief. You look very childish not being able to debate without resorting to insults.

More attempts with a better team. JG was ahead of him in several stats up until the last game. He was also in his third year of starting with a competent offensive line.

It's my opinion JG will be better next year.

And weren't you calling for KC all year? He had worse stats than JG could even dream of. But didn't you think KC was better?

No, talent around them has nothing to do with it. Right?

JG is definitely better than Franks. 4.5 points higher completion % higher ypa. He just needs more attempts.

Bentley you can make an argument. I still think with the situations both were in
JG is or will be better next year.

 

[Jax_Vol]

We saw several good QB's this year. Unfortunately none were wearing Tn orange.

We really did. It was an unusual year for that.

I think we saw five who will make it on a NFL roster at some point:

West Virgina guy was good
Tua from bama
Lock from MO
kid from Vandy probably a lifetime 3rd stringer in NFL
Fromm

The florida guy is more of an athlete than QB; kid from Auburn probably a notch below NFL.

KC didn't have 9 whopping plays for -17 yards in a full quarter, or have a start as bad as Peterman. But you ignore that, don't you? And why do you keep discounting the Vandy? Is it part of the season? Yes. Quit picking and choosing so much. That's why I don't take you seriously. You say JGs stats are better until I show they aren't, and suddenly they don't mean anything. Why's that? Because they make him look average at best, and you can't handle that?

KC is a 54% passer with a 130 rating. Below 50% this year. He has consistently put out putrid performances.

At least JG can claim average stats. You called for a qb with bad stats. He is much worse in any stat you can name.

His stats were decent for the situation. Not great but good.

140 rating 4/1td int, 62+% all with a terrible line and conservative playcalling.

Like i said a bunch of y'all better hope I'm right because he is our qb until he leaves.

Yet, the play calling opened up with Chryst in the game. It certainly did against Bama (it wasn't the backups yet), and against Mizzou.

No, those stats aren't stellar. Maybe they could've been better if JG could've actually opened the game up against UTEP or Charlotte. But, no, he was so great at leading nowhere drives over and over and over.

By the way, Chryst had a better ypa. And was smart enough to not get blindsided time and time again and only got sacked once.

How is one successful drice after finsihs8ng of a scoring drive thst was mostly JG ope9jg it up? He had 1.25 successful drives down 28. 4/8 45 yards sed9nd half.

36% for way under 200 vs the 13th ranked SEC pass d.
Lower career ypa.

What opening up are you referring to exactly? And he got sacked once playing most of the game. JG averages two.also they have been missed assignments and him staying in the pocket to allow the play to develop like the coaches want. If KC wasn't so shaky and willing to just throw a duck up to not take a hit he would actually be better than a career 54% passer with a 130 rating.

If you're so adamant about the scheme, then you can't look at his career since was at a completely different school.

I'm not going to address the rest of it until you edit it because your typing on this one sucks.

KC was sacked once. On the year. How many was JG?

 

[Jax_Vol]

I think we can't fairly judge JG until we get a bit of blocking.

If the two teams had swapped QB's on Saturday night, Vandy still would have won.

For now, there isn't time to see if JG can read a defense. You can either throw a dink pass, heave a jump ball way up into air, or get sacked.
