This is why you are a nightshift stock clerk at Walmart and Mac makes millions.

I'm a nightshift store clerk at Walmart? News to me.

To be honest, that post was at 7:47pm, and you didn't respond until 8:30 this morning. It's pretty clear, you are the night shift clerk at WalMart.

Get some sleep.

He seems to do better in practice because he knows he's not getting slammed to the ground. Similar to many reports of how he struggles in the redzone in practice when they dial up the defense. I will repeat what I wrote earlier, this is coming from a 5 star, top ranked QB who has been through 2 spring and fall camps, against a top 10 defense, He should be having very little problems with the defenses of KY and even TN (as ox noted they are ranked fairly low)

Grier been given every opportunity to separate himself from Treon and hasn't been able to do it so far. Treon may not have the prettiest passes, and came from a spread offense, but he is a gamer! and played big boy HS football, we can win with him. If those Grier fanboyz thinking scoring 14 points against KY (and getting shut out in the 2nd half) is going to cut it against the stiffer SEC schedule then they are delusional, we might win only a couple more games this year at that rate, And that is unacceptable to me. I know this is a rebuilding year, new coach, system, but there is enough talent on this team to take the East this year. That experience will go far more towards next year and recruiting than taking ugly losses.

Agreed. Hopefully Grier shreds Tennessee this week if he does start to separate himself.

But, you think Harris does/has? You're funny as that flaming piece of crap on the doorstep...

That's a matter of perspective. It could, in fact, be quite funny. Depends on which side of the door you started from.

 

[Alagator]

...We're getting both sides from you. You've been putting on different personas in different threads lately...

Ahhhh....that answers a lot ...



Law is bipolar.

I'll try to be a little more sympathetic and a little less annoyed from here on...

I still can't make out what your point is here. If we stick with Grier we're gonna lose all the games, so play the guy who played worse and led us to even less points against ECU? Yet somehow, in this crazy alternate universe of yours, this will make us win more games because reasons?

I am not sure what some people are seeing. Seems like Grier has played relatively well, especially given he is a redshirt freshman. He has made some mistakes, but very few catastrophic ones. Yes, he threw a pic last week, but it was a good play, and the throw was to the right person, he just underthrew it a bit and lacked some touch. In time he will make those throws.

As to the running, yes, he is probably tucking and running too quickly, but given the spotty offensive line, and our fairly mediocre running production, him making the decision to do that isn't all bad. It keeps the defense honest.

I REALLY like how he makes his decisions quickly, and gets rid of it quickly, or runs with it quickly. That minimizes the potential for catastrophic error.

We saw Treon all last year, and a little bit this year. He did OK. But at this point I'd rather stick with a kid has more upside and is doing pretty good considering his background.

#1- A buck twenty five against any team over a full game isn't playing ''relatively well''
#2- He has put the ball on the ground in 2 of the 3 games which is never a good thing. His ball security stinks.
#3- He threw it right to the defender in the end zone. In week 2 he did the same thing, but got away with it. Picks in the endzone in tight ball games are usually lethal.
#4- Based on what? I don't think he ever saw the defender.

Maybe Treon would've done about the same,better or even worse. But Grier wasn't very good last saturday.

Grier has made some incredible throws. For instance, that throw he made to the TE was insane. The defender was all over him and Grier threw the ball low (about knee height) and just a foot or so to the right of Jake. When they showed the replay the announcer said it was literally the only place he could put the ball safely and give the TE a chance to grab it and leave the defender defenseless to make a play. It was in about as tight of a window as one could throw it.

The problem with Grier so far, is he has been hot or cold. Inconsistent. You can see the enormous upside he has. He just has to play more consistently. But he gives you the feeling that once he puts it all together, he's gonna shred some SEC defenses.

Played worse??? Against ECU treon got about half the possessions Grier got.

In before chferg tells us whatever lofty job he has.

Wonder if this type of decision making will impact who starts... smh

Throw to the guy who's open beyond the first down marker ! For a QB with a quick trigger how'd Grier not fire that ?

Treon had 3 red zone trips and 7 points. We're done here.

He was a freshman making his second start, and it was on the road. I'm guessing you were expecting a Heisman season. That comes later.

No idea but he had multiple options and a clean pocket. I'm guessing first road game jitters.

Whoever made this is an idiot.

D-Rob is covered. The moment Grier cocked his arm back to throw it to him, that defender on the hash jumps it and picks it off. Goolsby doesn't even look like he's part of the read, he's just the backside route to keep the defense spread out. Powell is open, but the corner would jump all over him as soon as he caught it and it would be about a 4 yard gain.

 

[Durty South Swamp]

Agree with sas, that static photo may give the appearance that there were options but if a video of that play was shown I think most would have a different opinion. The only guy open is Powell and by the time he caught it and turned he'd get a step or two until being hit.

Treon keep criticizing Grier for imbellishing one and down playing the other. The reality is both groups are equally adept at for their guy and on the other.
