Joe Cox frustration?

Gooooooose.......we will be able to tell in our 1st offensive series just how physical USC is going to be and whether we will be able to consistently move the ball on them. Again, one of the best D's we will face all year. A few breaks wouldn't hurt my feelings.


You should use LG to run the Wild Dawg.....he not only can run well, the pass option is there as well. Will keep the corners back etc.

About Cox above post. I just hope CMR and Bobo are playing him because they ARE confident in him and NOT because he's been there 5 years and \"deserves\" it......that would be baloney.

A quote from Joe Cox:
“Half the people who have stuff to say after games have never played a down of football before in their entire life. I wouldn’t criticize somebody for something I’ve never played before or never done before, but some people feel it’s their place to say how somebody is doing when they’ve never done it before. That’s just something I’ve never understood. Stuff like that doesn’t bother me. You’ve got to look at the source, and if it’s somebody who’s never played football, I could care less what you say.”

This ain't good.

I'll point to the same article you read that in, DawgFanInTn, to tell you that I have a lot of confidence in our Dawgs because of this. In the same article (from the Red and Black, yes?) the reporter quotes A.J. Green as saying, \"After the game, Joe was the only one in the locker room talking.\" \"We all should have taken heat for the loss,\" said linebacker Rennie Curran. \"We all realized that there was more that each of us could have done, you know, to make sure the team was successful.\"

The rest of the team is rallying around Joe. That's a good thing, right? A unified team?

Not only that, but one of the things everyone complained about last year was the preseason #1 ranking and the perceived complacency that our boys showed, thinking that the national title was guaranteed to them. All of a sudden Joe Cox shows some \"us against the world\" underdawg mentality and you rag on him for that? Which is it? How should he behave?

When Matthew Stafford lost to Kentucky in 2006, I gave him a pass because he was a freshman. When he lost to SCarolina in 2007, I was calling for his head. I'm giving Joe a chance. He's still 1-1 as a Georgia quarterback.

with what Joe said....I would have probably felt more compassion for the golden boy if he showed an ounce of compassion, passion and dogged determination that Joe shows...but that's me!..Even when he assumes the responsible role he is criticized for saying something that IS rooted in truth...Seriously, how many of US did he describe to perfection??? Hell, I love football but stopped playing in 11th grade for soccer,...so I raise my hand and admit it...Joe's right!

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.02 worth:

Joe,
Don't dis the unknowledgable folks in public. Let nonsense roll off your back and keep focused on your game. People just need to vent so ignore it.

Pay attention and play the game. All the things that happen after the ball is snapped are unpredictable. Just do your best to deal with it.

Go Dawgs!!

P.S. Most of the folks on this board are knowledgable as proven over the years, so I recommend them as reliable sources.

Well said Steve!!

I'd put more blame on play calling than JC's quality of play.
As for non-football player's knowing what they're talking about, there have been some great football minds that have never played football so I disagree.
