Griese on Worley

I have to say he's handled this tough job pretty good so far. Its gonna show in the next few games what it meant for him to stand up for his oline.

How do you forget about a 100 yard pick 6 to end any chance of winning?

So you think that one mistake... just that one was what ended any chance of winning? That's an interesting theory about how team games are won and lost.

That's a very fair and honest question and honestly I must have wiped it from my memory due to too much mental anguish.

It was a bad throw but the call was bad too,.

Should have tried to pound it in.

You have 3 guys at WR over 6'3".... I would have thrown 3 fades in a row to North or something in the back of the end zone to one of the TE's.

OMG is that all Vol fans care about are the pics?? Other than missing 2 other pics thst werent his fault, he was spot on.

Croom shoulda caught one, another got deflected that was a foot from being a TD, and the other an Ark St. Player made a miracle catch.

BUT you don't understand. The misplay of a very well thrown ball by Croom with a 27-10 score in the end zone that resulted in a INT didn't end UT's chances of winning. The drops didn't. The matador blocks didn't.... the poor punts didn't. ONLY Worley's bad choice on UT's last potential scoring drive ended UT's chances of winning.

Dang bo'. E'body 'no dat.

I like Worley Bird and hope he has the breakout season he needs to have, but Peyton Manning was Tennessee's best QB ever and he continues to impact our program.

Go Worley Bird ! :clapping:

I don't think that's what he was saying.

No, I am serious. Please tell me how to forget.

The same way you forgot about the well thrown pass to Croom that went right through his hands for a pick in the end zone. Same way you forgot about the number of sacks and knock downs Worley endured before and after leading UT on that drive. The same way you seem to have forgotten about every other play that contributed to the loss... except for that one.

Worley and the Vols seemed to get a lot of praise on that segment. Which really surprised me outta Griese! Said the 19 pt spread was ridiculous, and sounded as if both of them would pick the Vols to win.

you also forget that there was not time, most of the time to make these/those throws

Worley is a taller Matt Simms. He holds the ball, looks at one receiver, has lead feet and can take a sack with the best of em.

You must have turned the game off before the pick six against Oklahoma and missed the one against Arkansas ST.

And it won't be Worley alone that gets this program back to a bowl game if it happens.

The defense is trending in the right direction and Hurd is showing to be the real deal at RB.

But by all means, continue with the sanctimonious bloviating to prove you're a better fan than all the Worley "haters".
If you continue to use terms like sanctimonious bloviating you may be held responsible for heads exploding all over Volnationland. :devilsmoke:

I think you bolded the wrong thing.

But yes you're right, he has 3 picks on the season. One went through Croom's hands, and the pick 6 was the result of bad play calling. You go 5-wide 2 yards outside of a crowded endzone you have a better chance of the ball being picked than you do actually making the completion.

If we would have ran the ball and got stuffed everyone and there mom would have wondered "why didn't we go 5 wide and stretch it out"

"Justin Worley Has The Toughest Job In the SEC" - Brian Griese on the Tennessee QB

Thoughts?

I don't think Griese is really talking about Worley at all. I think he's just trying to say in a round about way that the OL sucks.

Are you serious?

Did you even watch the Simms games...sober?

Worley is way better than Simms.

The first 3 games last year Worley played a lot like Simms, I will give you that.

But he turned a major corner during the GA game and has only gotten better.

Simms was good at one thing and one thing only, taking hits and getting back up.
