Popular Post AUght2win 6,782 Posted October 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2021 It devastated us today. We may not have won anyway, but it was the primary reason it wasn't close. - Shenker drops open touchdown. - Shivers drops first down, which is intercepted for UGA's first momentum play of the game. - Shedrick drops a crucial post route 20 yards downfield. - Robertson drops 3rd down pass in 3rs quarter. - Robertson drops a 20 yard fade route down sideline. Those are just the ones I can remember. It's embarrassing. How could we be this bad in such a simple phase? Can't blame it all on Corn Williams. 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ber798297 241 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Agree… kind of hard to have a chance to win this game if you can’t catch the ball. Refs didn’t help either, but I don’t blame them. It’s the drops, o-line, and d-line. The UGA QB had all day today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDrew 68 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Drops were horrible and critical. The QB was applying a bit too much mustard on a lot of them, but, still have to catch the football. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Corn gets canned for players dropping balls. I imagine it's something much more egregious. I think the only way we solve this problem is write a blank check (metaphorically speaking of course) to all of our top wide receiver recruits. You either got it or you don't. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubaseball 2,536 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 QB has to know when to apply the heat and when not to. Some passes that were drops were on the receiver and some on Bo. Most were on the receivers, but a couple of halfback throws are why to hard. The inexcusable is the play when the ball was snapped and #0 was looking at the sideline while the play was coming in his direction. Bo Nix is the grammar school kid that is on ADHD medicine. He is out of control. Makes a fantastic play one minute and looks like he’s never played on another 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But catching the ball is individual focus and effort. UGA didn't force us to drop the ball. We did it to ourselves. And honestly, if we catch all the balls we needed to, the game may come down to the wire even with the line play. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nontoxic 35 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 The first drive throw to Shenker could have been better. It was high and took him back into the defender. There were a couple of high throws, but I saw too many drops to think even a perfect throw would have made much of a difference. This team just can’t seem to get all 11 executing together at any point of the game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for maybe the short range swing passes to the backs, as you said. There's no excuse for guys dropping balls 10, 15, 20 yards away. I don't care if it's coming out of a bazooka. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it ever hits you in the hands, it should be caught. Most SEC receivers and tight ends catch that ball. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randman5000 4,214 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Our receivers didn't have a whole lot of experience coming into this year and a lot of people were concerned and it shows. Offensive line is terrible as well. We can't run the ball, receivers can't catch and Oline can't block. I'm hopeful this is an eye opener for Hars. We need to double down on the recruiting side and start up front. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had to catch a ball from a college qb or pro qb, you’d be surprise at how hard it’s thrown every time. Windows are tight. The ball is humming. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank dropped some last week. It's the whole team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone4jc 2,237 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 That td miss to the TE was a bad read and throw. Should have been a easy TD to the HB who was wide open and would have walked to the endzone. The int was way too hot for the short throw. Some drops were definitely on the receiver's but Bo has to make better throws. Watch our opponents and the touch and accuracy, then look at Bo. It's like he is way too pumped up. Blame goes both ways... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blame goes both ways... Nah. Just nah. Bo didn't play great, but to act like our D1 athletes shouldn't be able to catch a football unless it's thrown perfectly and soft is so sad. Just call it what it is and stop letting our guys off the hook. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A running back coming out of the backfield 5 yards away from doesn’t take a bazooka throw no matter the level. The pass to newton was a touch pass. And I said that most of drops were on the receiver. The one pass to Shenker should have been caught but it was terrible placement. The easier throw was to the halfback right in front of him. Really the play that best sums up Nix was when the announcers broke down the play on the double move that he gave up on before the double move was even done. He plays to fast and doesn’t have the patience. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedaler 999 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I don’t think we could have won the game with fewer drops, but I definitely feel like we could have scored 21 on their defense with better receiver play. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New years bowl is the ultimate goal for him and us, but he played well enough for the w tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to double down on the recruiting side and start up front. I think the roughly 70 recruits attending today was a big sign that Harsin has fully realized the talent level on this team won’t hold up against the talent level he is facing and he has turned a good bit of focus to recruiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift 350 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Bo running for his life doesn’t help. Not sure if it’s entirely the O-line’s fault either. I am starting to believe Bo is just uncoachable. He seems to want to roll out every play and sling the ball down field. Several times today he could have stepped up into the pocket but his first move every time is to run to the sideline. I just can’t believe that tendency is encouraged by the coaching staff. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
