Football- What do the Gators need to improve?

The Gators have showed some very weak signs in the past 3 weeks in all categories. The passing game has been awful. The special teams (besides FG's) has been awful. The defense has been up and down. 


Key players on offense: John Brantley, Chris Rainey, Jeff Demps and Andre Debose. Brantley: Has been out the last 2 1/2 games, so can't blame these losses on him. Rainey: He has really been struggling. He looked like one of the best running backs in the game the 4 weeks, but he's starting to slump. Demps: Has been so/so lately, but is questionable to play vs. Georgia. Debose: It's hard to criticize a player who had two 60+ yard TD's in back to back games, but he still needs to step up his game, we can't afford another loss.


Key players on defense: Jaye Howard, Matt Elam, Cody Riggs and Jon Bostic. Howard: Was named defensive player of the week just 4 weeks ago, now, he has not been close. He is definitely not the player he looked like these 1st 4 weeks, his game needs to improve. Elam: Elam needs to make more game changing plays. We need him to come up big in tough spots. Riggs: Of course, had that 1 lack of coverage on that 1st LSU TD. He then tweeted after the game "You make one bad play and everyone's against you... keep a tight circle." Since that statement, Riggs has looked like a shut down corner. Bostic: Has been great at times, then can be average, but either way, he is a big key to this defense. He has to stay consistent and be the great player that he is.
