Cottdang, people ain’t even mad and TRDJ

Running 105 octane race fuel today in his twin-turbo Hellcat-powered industrial grade sunshine pump. $100 says he already has the final draft written and saved for his first post-loss “the sun still came up this morning” post.

We easily could have the best D in the country, and Cade or not, if Streeter could dial up a little more third quarter and a little less 1st quarter play calling, it might be enough to win it all. It would have been against Georgia last year.

When people say DJ had multiple flaws in his game last season and that Cade looked better in the spring game and last night (yep, just one series, but DJ doesn't make at least two of those throws in that series if you're being honest), it's not insulting Dabo to wonder if he'd be the better starter.

We have 13+ seasons with Dabo. We know he's good. We can know he's good without pretending he's omnipotent and flawless. After a decade with the man and at least two similar QB controversies, a fairly accurate psychological profile can be put together for this current situation that reasonably assumes DJ is getting graded on a generous curve based on loyalty, tenure, effort, and a general willingness for Dabo to root for underdogs in situations where he sees himself. You just understand that's what you're getting with Dabo and if it's a flaw, it's at least an admirable one.

We look better than last year and we won 10 games last year

playcalling was fine with some new wrinkles it looked like. There were some mistakes in the first half that kept the offense from scoring (DJ fumble and DJ handling of a bad snap for example) that would have made things less tense going into the 2nd half. DJ actually looked MUCH better on his mechanics and throw accuracy (the throw to Collins for the TD was perfect) than last year. If the WRs learn to catch his stats would have been more impressive and we'd have at least one more TD on the board.

Defense is dominate. Only negatives I saw were that had at least one if not two pick 6s that were just plain dropped and we allowed GT to have a couple of long drives that killed time. But that's very much nitpicking. They looked as advertised.

Biggest worry is lack of explosive plays and playmakers on offense, especially with the WRs. Other than Williams, I saw almost no one that "popped" or has playmaking ability out of the WRs. DJ had some great throws deep down the field that were dropped, need our WRs to help out our QB. While DJ looked much better than last year the offense still looks like it's sputtering and has no rhythm. That's the main difference I saw between DJ and Klubnik. Klubnik's one series had fluidity and rhythm. It's early but so it'll be interesting to see how things develop as we see more of both Qbs in these next few games.

Oh, also our Oline was pretty bad (especially in the first half) and contributed greatly to how bad the offense looked at times in the game. Oline and WRs were my biggest negatives coming out of the game.

Yeah, but his sunshine pump is 100% bs.

I’m feeling a 4:1 truth:jest ratio.

No bs here

I'm gonna say it.

I think we have something else

You aren't wrong....I just wrapped that up in the "loyalty"

Re: I think we have something else

DJ was literally the difference in the UGA game.***

I find it interesting that "we don't know what we have" with

TRDJ has always been bullish on the Tigers

Same in 16 but MORE coinage.

I dunno. It's kinda shocking, but not really....the sheer

Errybody wanted to see DJ throw more than 1 TD

I think you might be a little myopic on the minor discontent

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed

More D-Line and punt line shifting might take care of that.***

Your deal is that you don't want others to vent (like me)

Naw, it's not about people venting or having opinions.

I wouldn't call that a grade A ### whupping

I DID like that...

He did look better toward the end of the game, but I

How many fade routes did he throw past the sideline last

I'd say he showed he is a "playmaker" when

No, and he ain't lost to the chickens.

Man, that's just always been our fanbase

But we did cover the spread and heads still rolling***

Being as we have several mutual friends,

Re: Man, that's just always been any CFB team fanbase

I KNOW ! This right here is a nearly entirely true story

Did you 'con soul' the wife...?***

I get the sentiment butt there is no reason we should be

I happen to hold the opinion that DJ isn't as bad as folks

Out of 124 qualifying QBs in all of FBS last year

Look, I ain't saying he's Tom Brady.

I'M MAD AS #### AND NO GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!

We look better than last year and we won 10 games last year
