Is he the toughest qb to ever where orange? I cant recall one that has took the beating he has taken this year. Tee Martin was pretty tough too but with this awful line I feel he is the best.

Certainly tough and has grit...

But I hold my breath every time he is hit...or the (only) couple times he "keeps"...

I don't think Miss St & Ole Miss fans do the same when Dak & Bo "keep"

Will Worley go down as the most sacked QB in a single year in UT history? I don't know.

But he is completing 63% of his passes this year, despite having no protection. Despite having a poor running game. Tonight, he completed almost 80%, even though he was sacked five times.

Except for a few bad decisions, Worley is playing at a pretty high level. I, for one, am glad to have him.

Even though he mostly caused the sacks by holding on to the ball too long, Simms took a beating every week and always got up.

Worley cant hit the ocean....what is worleys completion percentage pass 15 yards....probably less then 30 percent...that deep ball he missed in the first half was unexcusable....he should have never ran the read option today...why do it against a high school team?...now ole miss wont be surprised next week...he should have been running it all year then

Not really the subject of this particular thread. But props on your mastery of the English language. #Winning

Worley's a lot tougher than most of us thought he'd be. Reminds me of the beatings Matt Simms took.

It will be a miracle if Worley makes it through our brutal schedule. Our O-line is going to get him injured. His parents and the coaches have to be worried. He has almost no protection at all, and we have some really tough defensive teams on deck.

Worley is a tough. Too bad he doesnt have more god given talent. He wouldn't have to prove it quite so often.

So if you take too many sacks en route to a 3-3 record, including two game-altering sack-fumbles against Georgia and Florida where the defender is right in front of you yet you don't see him, and you take so many sacks partially because you're unable to escape any type of pressure by moving in the pocket (ex - stepping up in the pocket, maybe, and not stepping directly towards the point of pressure), you get heralded as one of the toughest QBs in Tennessee history? Wow, that's a pretty sweet deal.
