  1. I too am also old. I get called sir and unk a lot. Lol. Everyone looks like kids to me.
  2. This game is about opportunities. We have to take advantage of the ones we've had and we have not.
  3. Helm barely got a hand on him. Come on man. He was beat immediately. You guys watch games just waiting for anything to happen that you can blame on him. Tough way to watch a game.
  4. Yeah that's the quarterbacks fault....rolls eyes.
  5. I will say this again and some of you are going to say I am making excuses for Quinn. Batted balls coming from the same place are a sign of a lineman who isn't playing with good technique. In football every player watches film looking for advantages or tells in their 1v1 matchup. Linemen aren't supposed to allow a defensive lineman to disengage and jump up and bat balls. Quinn has 7 interceptions and 5 of those are batted balls, 4 of which came from the right side of the line. The 5th came from a free rusher from the nickel spot to the right. I cannot remember a single batted ball coming from the left. That's a pretty telling stat. Why are no batted balls happening left when the ball comes out the same way? Truthfully, pretty much everything bad happens on the right side of the line in pass pro.
  6. The first issue is we were completely out-physicaled. We were not ready for the fight AT ALL. Offensively they dominated us at the LOS. Defensively we got bullied there too. We got no pressure at all on Beck and without looking I wanna say Etienne averaged like 7 ypc. We gave up 7 sacks, 3 fumbles, and like a million pressures. They were playing man a lot and bullying our receivers downfield. Basically the same thing aggy was trying to do sat. Intimidate us and be the superior physical team. The difference is we have now run the gauntlet and found our second wind. We can run it now and we found a reliable back we can lean on. We are also fighting back. When aggy went straight thuggery we shrugged our shoulders and kept playing. We seemed to have shored up the run defense and found our stride with our pass rush. Guys like Trey Moore have started coming on lately. I think as long as we are prepared for a fist fight we should be good. There will be turnovers. People need to be prepared for that. Georgia is a damn good football team. We just need to win the turnover battle.
  7. You guys have trouble with what is right in front of you. Helm is better than Sanders but when they were on the same team(same recruiting class too) Helm couldn't beat Sanders out. The easy answer is maybe Sanders was just a better receiver. But no you guys twist yourselves in knots to justify how Helm "grew" into a better receiver than Sanders in the 8 months since Sanders left. Williams is better than Jones. Almost all the pressure, gaffs, and batted balls are coming from that side of the line. The easy answer is that Jones was better than Williams but you guys twist yourselves in knots to say how Williams is better than Jones ignoring the evidence of even Campbell saying Jones helped him stay solid with protections. Offensive productivity drops after losing 7 players on the offensive side of the ball. Seems like the most logical conclusion would be the 7 players we lost on offense, but no it's all just simply because the quarterback regressed. Offenses usually keep humming along at the same pace after losing their 5 star back and 6 players to the NFL right? We couldn't seem to connect on anything downfield to Worthy in 22 at all so Sark went to the portal, got AD, and turned X into a short to intermediate guy and things seemed to get fixed. Mahomes never struggled missing wide open Hill before. They got rid of Hill and struggled with receivers failing to get sep vs DBs which was killing their big play passing game. So they went and got some real speed again but can't hit dude even though he is wide ass open. The logical fucking answer is maybe like we found out X just isn't a deep threat receiver since no one has ever seen him catch the ball downfield with any regularity. Ever. Even though we've seen X with 5 different quarterbacks now, including the best one in the NFL. But no. It has to be because Mahomes footwork right? I have admitted what I think Ewers' issues are plenty of times in this thread. It is you guys that blame every single thing that happens negatively on offense on him.
  8. The article is like listening to the second wife complain about the same things the first wife complains about and then blaming the issues on herself.
  9. Last year Mahomes wasn't struggling to hit burners who were wide open. He had receivers who struggled getting free. The article says Mahomes is having to wait and see where Worthy will release vertically because he has no idea and Worthy struggles to track balls. That's the same thing we were seeing here. Then we got Mitchell and basically gave up on Worthy being the deep target and our offense took off. That was the difference in the offense in 22 and the offense in 23. Now the Chiefs are going through the same thing we did.
  10. By "different developmental path" you men had to wait until Sanders left because he couldn't beat him out. Gotcha.
  11. What's funny about you guys is you forget these guys were on the same team and literally in the same recruiting class. So the comparison has already happened. Last year both were juniors and our coach, who has a good eye for talent, chose Sanders as the tight end to catch passes. Everyday those guys were competing in front of the same sets of eyes and Helm was designated the blocking tight end. So miss with all the who will be better in the future stuff.
  12. The article talks about the incredibly low target vs catch rate for Worthy. Try reading the articles.
  13. No one said all. I did point out times it was and you guys said "no way". Now that Mahomes is experiencing the same issues what is it? Suddenly Mahomes can't hit the broad side of the barn but he "must have regressed" right? Or could it be X gets rerouted easily and it makes it hard to time him up. You know, like we talked about when he was here.
  14. No you guys blamed him for THEIR issues. You should try following the NFL this year. https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs/gm-report/why-patrick-mahomes-xavier-worthy-cant-connect-on-the-deep-ball-and-how-to-fix-it https://kckingdom.com/chiefs-already-receiving-huge-blowback-2024-draft-pick-01jebs4kqtas https://www.colts.com/news/colts-wr-adonai-mitchell-reggie-wayne-relationship-rookie-success-michael-pittman-alec-pierce Those look awfully familiar to the problems we saw here right? Sometimes the correct answer is the easiest answer.
  15. 45 for 682 15.14 yrds per 2 TDs 48 for 600 12.50 yrds per 5 TDs(and the year isn't done) One of these receivers was an afterthought and the other one is leading the team in targets and yards. Once again the comment was made that there should've been an expected drop in offensive productivity with the drop in ability in pass catching. We look for Helm first and scheme a lot of routes for him. Therefore Helm is far more productive but as a receiver Sanders was more talented. Mitchell and Worthy had 850 and 100 yards. Our highest receiver this year has 576.
  16. We can tell the difference between the people being critical of a play and just being haters. The haters disappear when Quinn plays well but come roaring back when Quinn makes a mistake. Check the game threads. As far as that throw goes when a DB has his back to you, is in trail, and it's a relatively short toss you give your guy a chance.
  17. Context matters. Beck is throwing picks. Quinn is getting balls batted and fumbling from getting hit. He has had two turnovers all year that aren't from those scenarios. Beck barely gets touched back there and is simply making bad reads/decisions.
  18. Now he scored more points for our opponents than he did us. Lol. Imagine thinking this is true.
  19. Sanders was most def better than Helm as a receiver before and after the catch which is the important part when you make the comment about a dropoff in receiving talent. Current Cam Williams is not as good as 5th yr Jones. He is projected to be better but the majority of our protection gaffs come from his side. Jones not only held his own but kept Campbell straightened out with the protection scheme.
