That RB has to once again dominate every thread and post.

It's a real shame that Tashard Choice can't enjoy his best day ever in football. It's also a real shame that "Mr. blood and guts" Ball had nobody to yuck it up with on the sideline after his final pick. All of our players who were bawling their eyes out, need to be there for their fearless leader. :mad:
 
Absolutely! Actually the team as a whole played extremely well. Ball stunk and JJ dropped a couple of catchable balls and the coverage was too soft at times, but mostly fine performances across the board. Michael Johnson was incredible on kick coverage, the run defense was excellent, the run blocking was good, Choice was excellent, Brooks was great as usual, Travis Bell was 2-for-2 ... we could have 20 different threads extolling these things in detail with better QB play.

I really believe Ball can be effective as a QB when he is calm and focused, but when he gets into a berserker frenzy he is hopeless. That's why we need coaches with the sense to sit a player down when he is out of control and flailing.

I am 100% positive that losing to UGA is not Tashard's best day ever in football, no matter what the stat line says. Ask him.
 
Choice played a great game. O-line was decent to good. Special teams execelled.
But, there has to be some fault of the defense. It was a tight, defensive struggle. We get the lead with 8:50 to play. Three and out, or no more than one or two first downs and we probably win. Instead, they give up a drive of 7:08 and a TD. Yes, Reggie's terrible performance can lead to forgetting other mistakes, but the defense was weak in the 4th quarter.
 
Um....the defense held them to 8 points, and thats after being on the field the majority of the first half, if you want to play the blame game, you're pointing the finger in the wrong direction.

our QB had net 11 yards and 3 turnovers, that's what lost the game.

Yes, the defense (pass defense that is) struggled. Our pass defense always struggles if we're not blitzing. Our DB's are average, at best, in coverage.
 
I have less than zero complaints about the defense yesterday. They only allowed 7 points. They did their job.
