re: People want AR to start over EJ?

Barring an injury to Jones, I don't think AR could possibly start against Alabama. It's just not in Mullen's coaching DNA to move on that quickly without toting a loss or two. I really hope it's not two though, because that almost certainly blocks us from Atlanta even if Florida beats Georgia.

This weekend against USF I'd like to see AR's 2nd quarter drive focus on intermediate passing plays. We already know he can run. Against FAU, Emory looked incompetent on any pass more than 5 yards beyond the LOS. That early 3rd down conversion to Copeland in the first drive was the only exception I can think of offhand. So, if Anthony Richardson shows he can complete these intermediate passing plays then that changes things. Maybe if its get ugly against Alabama he moves to Richardson and that settles the QB question.

Otherwise, I feel this will require at least another loss, or near loss. It's not that I view the return trip to Atlanta as being terribly urgent. I just know that if Florida has two losses entering that Georgia game, the players won't have the same intensity. Beating Georgia this year is more important than ever.
