And that it would have been a "non-game" had he made them.

McElroy gets his head on straight again, we could ream some folks according to this analysis.

*edit*

already getting told I'm flaming LSU. this was not intended to have LSU fans get their panties wadded up. This was intended to see if people generally agree that our ONLY offensive problem has been McElroy.

We drove the ball on you with a healthy Jefferson and Scott; what's your point?

All this tells me is that unless "Mcannon" steps up, you guys are going to be the ones with sore butts come fall 2010.

He did miss three wide open TD's. I thought he played fairly well though and you can't expect any QB to make all the throws. Still, it would have been nice if he'd made a couple of those.

This is just a fricking stupid comment by Danielson (of which he's pretty good at)...

news flash: McElroy is PART OF THE TEAM! It's unfortunate that he's playing poorly, but get used to it... he's good for a couple dumbass throws a game. That's not gonna change. I might be more inclined to believe you if I felt like he had the ability to play better, but that's just not the case.... at this point in the season, He is what he is.... an average QB.

gary danielson can take it up the arse for all i care.

i am really tired of how he is harping on mcelroy so much when he is announcing for us. ue doesnt look at the field of play or the position he is in, he just looks at box score and open guy.

Throws to a checkdown because of pressure? "OMFG WHY DIDNT HE THROW TO JULIO HE WAS OPEN MCELROY SUCKS"

Noone pays attention to how he plays his position on CBS apparently, they just care about the mistakes made because he is not Tim tebow.

Frick Gary Danielson, frick him right in the arse.

In context, if he has a breakout day along with Bama's running game, they put up 40 on any team in the country.

I agree with Gary.

We left a lot of points on the field. GMac missed two wide open touchdowns, but we got at least three points out of the drives with those two passes.

No QB is going to hit every pass and I actually think he played well on Saturday. If he starts playing with confidence and we can continue to protect up front we will ream some people.

The LSU game was only a play or two away from being a blowout.

certainly didn't gather that from your original post...

McElroy, and along those same lines, explosiveness in the passing game have been the two areas of hope (you'd call them concern)...

The hitch that went for 70 yards to Jones... Bama needs more of that. It's so much easier when you're not having to grind out 20 play drives b/c you lack offensive explosiveness.

I actually agree. McElroy missed some wide open passes. I don't know about 24 points, but he didn't play as well as he could have. If he had hit some of those open passes, Bama would have won by more.

Yeah, if your QB didn't suck you'd probably be a better team. If Florida had LSU's WRs they'd probably be unstoppable. If LSU's DL could generate a pass rush....etc, etc, etc

How did McElroy leave 24 points on the field? Does he kick field goals? Or is Gary saying he missed 4 wide open TDs? I don't get it.

Um, he's your quarterback. I would call that a Problem. And the Florida defense will be all over him in Atlanta.
