well, he's QB1, so he better learn from it.

he's a talent. all the videos and **** are cool af, but Peyton put on the gear from '97 in the video for a reason. right now if it's whoever doesn't matter. no one ia playing well, that loss is everyone's fault. move on

we are immensely talented at TE, and at WR. for us to forget the middle of the field, further to not react to where arkansas was going on defense is inexcusable.

People can flame away all they want. But I have not been impressed with Nico at all this year. He has made some good throws but that’s about it. I really wish we could have gotten Arch Manning.

I’ve outlined my views in the past that we have a real problem at offense line. I thought it was that Elarbee’s recruiting was a disaster and development was not good at all but last night coaching was horrible too.

I’m sorry if other people don’t see the issue.

it's glaringly clear

this offense needs a DT QB. but needs equally talented WR's. i think people don't appreciate goes talented JH and CT are/were.

Where is our WR progression? they got stymied by OK and AR. what is going on?

I honestly don’t know. But it seems like they have failed to get open consistently all year. I mean Bama has a 17 year old that is worlds better than any WR we have.

I dont profess to be a football guru, but I said last year the TX kid Wingo, was a talent. Had no idea the 17 yo was that good. Seems like we still aren't recruiting with the top/most elite.

Just beat Florida.

Our WRs weren't and aren't the problem. When your QB is running for his life, it's really hard to focus on throwing the ball, particularly as a RSFR in his first road SEC games. The answer is in the human turnstiles that occupy the left and right tackle positions.

Yea, I don't see WR as a problem. It's getting the ball to them, whether it's poor OL play or a young QB panicking. I didn't think Nico saw the field well, but he was getting rushed pretty quickly.

I choose to believe that the offense played its worse game of the season, and Nico played the worse game he will in his career. I choose to believe we will be better going forward. I choose to believe we beat Florida this weekend and have some good vibes and momentum going into the Bama game.

I choose hope.

Because the alternative is unbearable

I'm on board.

If you go position group by position Group , where do we stand versus last year? Here's my opinion:

QB = 2023 QB
RB < 2023 RB
OL < 2023 OL
TE > 2023 TE
WR = 2023 WR

DL > 2023 DL
LB > 2023 LB
DB => 2023 DB

I think that's a simplistic look at why we are probably a similar team to last year's. JMO

QB is better in some aspects, but still inconsistent.

WR is better.

DB is better IMO.

The rest i agree with.
