What did the 1st quarter teach us:

Defense and Special teams came to play

TA still can't hit wide open receivers

Brown needs some work
Well said.

The bolded is still my biggest concern for today's game and the bowl game.
Thing is, Armstrong was able to last season, see the Georgia game. Hell, he was even beginning to check down and make good, consistent reads.

How and why is he regressing instead of progressing? Something tells me it's 50% coaching, and 50% him seeing the writing on the wall with the staff and it impacting his play.
It's anybodies guess if changes are made on the staff. After seeing yet another game starting slip through our fingers I surely hope so.

I do agree it being player & coaching. I can't see Braxton or JT Barrett being as successful here as they are at tOSU Buckheads

I disagree. Some people tried to convince themselves that he played well in the bowl game, but he really didn't.

Got lucky on one drive and the team held on.

He also locked onto receivers at the end of the game giving Georgia some turnovers that almost cost us the game. TA is inconsistent at best.
He was terrible in that Georgia game. Go back and look at the stats.

used to be, we'd watch a game like this that was even early...we'd think..."oh..just a matter of time before we settle down and take over"..now it is 'oh...dang...just a matter of time before we completely fall apart". Sad, sad, sad. Never felt this defeated by a zero / zero score before.
