The difference will be that this year's bama QB wont have the mobility that Sims had. He saved quite a fews drives with his legs. Also is there going to be a WR that he can throw 50 Wr screens to and have them turn into big plays like Amari Cooper did? Thr running game will carry the offense this year. It is more than capable of doing so but teams may be able to stack the box more with the inexperience of the QB and lack of proven Wr's.

Yep, but they also lost several olinemen and their best RB. Bummer for them.

There won't be a QB that can extend the pocket, but the offensive line (reportedly) has improved. The only concern about this years QB is experience. He'll have guys to throw too (Mullaney has been a good addition); he'll have a solid running game; he'll get good protection from the O-Line. The only thing that worries me is if he can't develop some chemistry between the receivers, causing miscommunication, which as we know, can lead to dead drives or interceptions. Morris seems to be the leader, and he's been with the program for a good while now, so it shouldn't be a problem. Over time, as we saw with AJ, Sims, and McElroy, as the season goes on, he'll have more command in the huddle, more trust from the coaches, and will learn his reads (where the blitzers are coming from, when to step up in the pocket, audibles, etc..).
