3. JT Daniels is the best quarterback on the roster

This seems like a silly point to have to make, but there were actually some people out there thinking that Georgia would be better off going to Stetson Bennett IV over JT Daniels.

Bennett IV lit up the game against UAB and earned conference honors in the process for his performance. However, over the past two games vs South Carolina and Vanderbilt, Daniels has looked great and Bennett IV less so.

Daniels started the game and only played the first quarter, getting the Bulldogs a nice 35-0 lead that they continued to build on. Bennett IV came into the game and threw an interception and the offense did not look the same. The Bulldogs push the ball further down the field when Daniels is in and this offense looks a lot more dynamic.

What should help Daniels get better as the year goes on are the emergence of freshman tight end Brock Bowers and wide receiver Ladd McConkey. If those guys can add depth to the wide receiver and tight end rooms, then this UGA offense is going to be hard for any defense to stop.

If there was any doubt, Daniels silenced the debate on Saturday in just one quarter.
