Funny how the season went downhill

[driscokid]

When Worley got hurt for all of you who wanted the freshman to play... Yes I know the defense is bad and Dobbs is not the reason we are losing but fact remains that the team was growing balls until Worley went down...

Worley > *

Had he played against Mizzou and Barn, both those games would have only been 10 point losses instead of whatever they were (30+)

Either that, or, we played Alabama, Mizzou, and Auburn.

If we lose to Vandy at home, the season will slalom right over the cliff.

Doesn't even matter who's the QB when the rest of the team mentally checks out of the game.

Not sure how you came to that conclusion?

The teams we're playing are much better than we faced early on.

You being serious right now? Are you really saying that the defense was playing decent because Worley was playing? You mean to tell me that Worley's offensive talent somehow allowed out special teams to tackle? What??

BS, BS, BS.....In 2 games a true freshman has been more dynamic and inspiring than most of the season seeing Worley(junior) throwing into the ground most of the time. I am grateful for Worley, but he is NOTHING compared to Dobbs.

LOL you're implying the caliber of opponent might have something to do with it? Surely you jest.

This kind of like the reverse Tyler Bray. "Oh the defense played like crap again? It's because Worley wasn't in there at QB" instead of "Oh the defense played like crap again? Tyler Bray is a loser."

 

[GrowVol]

.....And Worley is great back up QB

 

[VolBraniac]

When your team lacks sufficient talent and is genetically spawned by turtles, what exactly did you expect?

4 wins is a +

Would have Worley made those tackles on special teams. Would he been able to cut the 400+ yards rushing down to say 200? Worley would have had little difference in the outcome of the game. While Dobbs wasn't great he made many plays with his legs that Worley only dreams of making.

Been saying this for a while man. Nobody wants to hear it. They're all so desperately hoping that Dobbs is some magical savior of UT football that they fail to see that we're a better team with Worley in the game.

No, Worley can't play defense/ST, but he can pick apart a weak secondary. He can also put the ball down the field better than Dobbs can. Oh and he's actually scored touchdowns.

AND he's STILL more accurate than Worley.

I'm saying our odds of winning decreased greatly when we traded an experienced QB that was improving for a freshman and the whole team knows it. And do you seriously think that doesn't matter? If so you are crazy

Funny how the season goes downhill when you're already a bottom of the pack team and play a schedule like we have.

 

[ncvol17]

Season went downhill....who did we lose to that we were supposed to beat? [ by supposed to --I mean by reputable paid analysts]

Wait but wasn't he playing in the Bama game while we were getting slaughtered. It isn't the qb play. Our d is just slow and our fast player just don't have the instincts yet to play well except Sutton.

 

[wmcovol]

I think team got satisfied finally winning ONE SEC game against someone other than ky. Remember this is a lot of the same players who went bat**** crazy beating vandy in OT.

 

[TNinSC]

Funny how we can finish the season on a three game win streak for our first over .500 year in four years!

Neither has played that great imo - dynamic and inspiring should not be used for either Dobbs or Worley. Both are giving their all - but neither has excelled to this point.

Our odds didn't decrease because we traded quarterbacks, our odds decreased because we played significantly better teams after Worley got hurt.

Are you okay? Are you seeing double? I'm worried about you, my fellow Vol fan.

You're right, Dobbs throws much much higher than Worley. As far as inspiration goes.......I think it is fairly obvious he doesn't inspire the rest of his team.

What about the words True Freshman who came in the 2nd half against #1 in the land and in 2 games, a true freshman runs for more yards than Worley has done in 3,THREE, Tres years? What's excelling as true freshman in 10 qtrs? enlighten me.
