Offensive struggles weren’t Nico’s fault

[chuck0303]

Nope. Nico played a great game! Our WR's and FG kicker failed him. That should have been a hatchet job!

This is the first time I've seen the kicker not be on his game. Usually he doesn't miss.

Mike Matthews needs to play over Nimrod

Nico did not suck.

Agree on Matthews over Nimrod. I’ve never understood why he has gotten so much PT.

Nico played lights out, could have easily had 450 yards and 4 TDs. The receivers let him down badly.

Nico’s been struggling somewhat, but he was pretty much on target all night with his passes. 3 sure TD’s dropped by the receivers tonight. Gives me hope that the offense can come together for the Georgia game to give us a good chance to win. GO VOLS!

He misses a few every now and then like every QB does. However all season long he has hit receivers right in the hands on the long ball and the better the opponent the more likely it is our receivers drop ‘em. Granted they’ve caught a few as well along with our staff figuring out Nico needs to move a little to get into rhythm and throw a better ball.

This game was really close to being a blowout. I hate playing the "moral victory" card, but I think this offense has figured it out again.
