Georgia doesn’t seem to know what quarterback it’s going to get on a play-by-play basis.
I think we got ourselves a new meme, fellas!
“Dr. Greyson and Mr. Lambert.”

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

Ok, Ok….I admit that my time as a quarterback did not extend past my backyard and the neighbor kids, but I gotta think maybe this changing schools and coaches thing…may be tougher than it looked. Jake Coker, who was that year’s version of all world has just now begun to LEAD Bama after almost two years in the system.
T’would appear that barring injury, and with us that’s a very low bar, Lambert is gonna keep on playing most of the time.
We can bitch and moan and grind our teeth about his shortcomings all we want, but it won’t change a thing.
Hell, I am going to be a Lambert fan…one thing is for damn sure, it won’t be boring.

For the life of me, I can’t figure out Greyson. He’s not horrible. Watch some college football on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and you’ll see horrible. Jeremy Johnson was horrible. The kid for Mizzou…that’s horrible. In fact, name the QBs you’d take ahead of him in the SEC: Prescott, Towles, Kyle Allen, maaaaaybe Coker, Dobbs, or Kelly, but those last three are a push. He’s got as much talent and is much more accurate than Dobbs or Kelly.
To me, it is a true crisis of confidence. That only comes from experience in the system. None of us feel confident if we aren’t sure we’re doing the right thing. He isn’t sure yet. He has all the ability to make the right decisions and make the right throws.
Our best hope is that the light comes on in Jax. The light came on for Stafford vs. Auburn in 2006 and to some extent for Murray in Auburn in 2010. We beat a #6 team in 2006 and like to have beaten the eventual National Champ in 2010, all with freshmen QBs. Greyson is better than a freshman, but still a freshman in so many ways.
I still believe Richt can work some QB magic.

If those bad habits include horrible foot mechanics (i.e. throwing with an open stance or off the back foot), not to mention our previous discussion about his eyes, it seems his habits got worse against Mizzou, not being ‘coached’ out of him.
I’m ready for the wildcat with Marshall at QB and Sony running across. I bet we will see something like this in Jax.
LikeLike
If they were “habits”, don’t you think they would be plain as day during practice? There may be something to “game habits”, but that only stretches so far as well.
Personally, I think he has nervous episodes and should be run around the block before every game. We have had nationally acclaimed QBs at UGA have those sorts of games. Remember when we cheered for Murray to up his average to an NFL ave? He fluctuated some years because of “bad” inexplicable games. You can excuse the year with bad injuries being the cause. Same with our “Golden Boy” from Texas.

Correct, but it is what it is. We got in a bad spot at the position and we’re trying to get through it. UT was dreadful for a couple of years because they were bad at QB. We’re trying to win a division. It’s clear we’re in a holding pattern for ol’ Skinny to get her in January.

My thoughts (and fears) exactly. My impression is he’s a kid with talent but the game stage is too big for him. He had three years at UVa to get “comfortable ” and all he managed was to lose the job. I’m worried that what ails him can’t be coached out because it’s mostly between the ears. He’s a bright kid with arm talent but IMHO freezes when the lights get bright. Hope like hell he proves me wrong in Jax of course.

Note to Greyson Lambert:
“If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise”

Scorp, would think that your first blush offer here today to support Lambert, warts and all, would make for some fun blogging.
Everyone watching these performances have had their various feelings expressed by various bloggers such that there is nothing worse to add and we can’t go up beyond near perfection when trying to describe his up performances. Due to your suggestion, I think that shooting at his good plays and finding something inane to compliment in his bad passes hits my funnybone just right. Although I’m already leading in that category, we could have a contest for the stupidest remarks by description of both Greyson’s farces….uh….faces.
Wanna do it? We can be inclusive of those who could give remarks that are far off-base , but will deride the trolls all the way back to their place under the bridge.
Example: The idiots posting their knowledge of QBs have no clue to the “Hole-In-The-Sky” pass that Greyson uses; there an imaginary hole he throws to often and if our WRs are too fast as to run past that point too quickly, then it’s on them for not making the play correctly and when opposing players get their hands on the ball, it means that the WRs have tipped them as to where the hole is. It ain’t Greyson’s fault.
Example #4: Greyson threw one into a tight spot that Mitchell caught just past the outstretched opponent’s hands when in reality, the play was supposed to have been into an open spot 4′ ahead of Mitchell and we got lucky. You get my drift?

In honor of your proposal…
I love his back shoulder throws because they are not where the defender can get ’em!
I am glad he checks off from those TE’s to hit the back covered on the swing pass because his heart is right, he wants to give those hard working boys an opportunity 1on1 and not against 5 or 6 verses 8 between the tackles.
I like that he is so varied in his ability to release the ball. All the other qb’s seem to try to step into a thrown but he can thrown off his back foot or turned laterally to the line of scrimmage…that takes talent.
I am glad we have GL because luck is on his side. CMR must’ve done something for why the football God’s or his seems to be square against him regarding luck, bounces, officiating, scheduling, etc. GL though, he can throw it repeatedly to the other team and they drop it!
Alright, enough of that. Get it worked out GL. CBS, get some creativity and diversity in the scheme and set him up better. The rest of you, get healthy, focused…and pi$$ed off. It’s WLOCP time and our home game for all us SoGa boys (snark anyone?!)
Really though…Cojones…don’t stay gone so long, had many worried.

The “fun making” is to be aimed at those remarks aimed at Greyson for having up and down games. Some remarks aren’t criticisms, rather they are attacks. We all are watching the same games and see the same plays and we have pretty much the same opinion; he has up and down games, but the confusion of who to blame(since some have the propensity to want to name individuals) is rampart while the true reason lies in a multiplicity of team plays for games and is never easy to pin down. Touting Greyson’s bad plays as good(using imaginative reasoning) while knocking his good plays sounds reasonable in the present milieu of confusion and retribution blogging.
Thought your remarks about Bluto’s header, cheering for Greyson because it’s better than being bored, etc, would be perfect fodder for a sarcasm cannon aimed at our frustration for not “getting the picture” clearly. Just because we can’t blog in HD doesn’t mean that we can’t confuse the Digital picture more until this season straightens out.

I see it differently. He is obviously very impressive on the practice fields, and has to have been ever since arriving in July. In all those situations, he was cozying up with the Miss Georgia babe the night before. All pre-game nights are spent under lock and key, surrounded by the hard assed boys on the team. I say give him an exemption from “undergrad rules” and let him drink of the elixir that has inspired good men throughout all of history. The boy just needs to release some pressure and relax.
