Georgia fans clamor for Carson Beck and Brock Vandagriff amid struggles on offense

Carson Beck and Brock Vandagriff were popular players for Georgia fans in the first half of the 16-6 game at Missouri as Georgia trailed at halftime.
The backup quarterbacks came to mind for fans after Stetson Bennett and the Georgia offense struggled. Bennett overthrew several receivers, including a swing pass late in the first half when Georgia settled for a field goal. Overall, Bennett was 10-for-23 passing for 149 yards, with 4 carries for 1 yard.
Georgia fans looking to move on from Bennett is nothing new, as it was a dominant storyline for much of last season, except that season involved JT Daniels.
Beck has played sparingly this season. He completed 5 of 6 passes for 71 yards, including an 18-yard TD toss in the season-opening win against No. 11 Oregon, then was 5-for-7 passing for 52 yards against Samford, and 5-of-6 for 55 yards against South Carolina, including a 28-yard TD pass.
Vandagriff also saw action against Samford and South Carolina.
Georgia fans…. I think it’s time to see Carson “The Forehead” Beck.

Maybe time to bring in Carson Beck the second half. Bennett can’t hit a broad side of a barn even from 5 five yards away.
