We are paying for hating on Beck now.

I used to talk so much shit about that guy

We all did

At this point, if you can’t pick up the playbook just GTFO. Time to unleash chi and doss. (Mainly doss, chi needs to add weight)

He learn one spot, get him on the field. Go, post, double move, dig, corner. Boom. Now you have a guy that can threaten the top of the defense.

Is learning every spot important...sure...but what's the cost at this point. I'd argue it's hurting the team more than helping if you can't get your dudes that can make plays get on the field sooner.

Beck had plenty of faults, but more than anything we'd kill to have guys like Ameer, Kenny Bell and Enunwa on the team right now

Agree completely. Have him learn all positions in the off season but at first just make sure he knows X. Makes no sense to me.

Side note: my all time favorite is the sluggo. Especially against man. Hopefully we see that tonight after all the slants we ran last week.

We'd all take YOLO Tommy in a heartbeat too.

I miss the nervous/exciting feeling that would come when he’d take a 3-5 step drop and launch one 60 yards. 😔

there's nothing TA loved more than throwing 60 yard bombs to a WR who was 55 yards downfield

but credit where it's due, that last drive against MSU was as good as it gets

Ahhhh…the work week is finally over. Time to kick back, relax, and start the weekend by watching some objectively awful football where my favorite team will likely devastate me emotionally. #blessed

What are the chances Satt goes full Langsdorf and chucks the ball 40 times in gale force winds?

They'll never see it coming.

if you have inaccurate QBs, there's a chance the wind blows the pass back on target

RIP Wild Bill Callahan who would run into the teeth of the nation's best run defenses because no one would expect it

Princewill Jack move …. Meant to ask earlier. Do chief boarders and MJ Sherman suck

they are pretty average. Sherman had a legit reason to transfer given the talent at UGA, but Florida hasn't exactly been good and Borders couldn't get on the field there
