Worley looked lost at times today, but seeing Croom drop that possible TD pass was bad in its own right. No matter who the QB is, getting both the QB and WR's on the same page doesn't seem to be happening right now, regardless of who is under center. IF Worley is the best we have on this team to be the QB this season, we might win 2 SEC games.
yes. I don't think you throw in a new guy and pull Worley off the bench when it goes bad, which it will at Oregon. And Worley would come in, hypothetically, if Peterman were to start and struggle. We are going to get blown out next week and I expect to see 2, or even 3, qb's, so hopefully it'll work itself out before the SEC run. Start Worley, see what happens, and have plans b and c ready.
For me, it's disappointing that a guy like Peterman wasn't/hasn't been able to take advantage of what is an obvious opportunity, even if it's just until one of the true freshmen overcome him.
the only glimmer of hope I have is that dooley and chaney effed him up so much and this offense is totally different, that its just been too much and he can settle in, come in and show us something soon. Our read option is nothing with Worley back there. If Peterman is there, it will open up the keeper and it will open up the handoff because that DE won't be able to crash in each time.
I knew we'd miss his talent on the field and I lamented on whether I wanted him in the locker room but....damn. This team is SIGNIFICANTLY better with Bray under center. I know, water is wet, the sky is blue....
I love how the prevailing opinion is that one or both of the freshman have to be redshirted, like it's a rule or something.
What are you basing that off of? His series's last week when AP's defenders were getting in his face?
Didn't think he looked particularly good in the scrimmage, either. He's also experienced enough to not really have any excuse for not beating out Worley.
I was just watching this game thinking the same thing. Rocket/Laser arm, and can move. How can The University of Tennessee not have a better QB on the roster than our current options ?
