He threw 30 TDs this year with only 3 INTs. Bama returns every single WR and gets White back and Black off injury. AJ will throw for a ton of TDs next season
Plus OJ Howard.
I remember when I said AJ would only throw 3 INTs (in the offseason I said this) and his completion %, yardage, and YPA would all go up. Every Aubie, UT Fan, and Corndog was claiming he wouldn't.
He'll probably throw, eh, 33ish, maybe 35ish, next season, similar INTs. His first INT was on KB7 anyway, not even AJ's fault.

I honestly do not foresee any starter success in the NFL for AJ but I think he will be a decent backup.

Yep. But no one is saying he has an elite arm, will be an all-pro, and win three SBs.

According to LSU fans, he will go 2nd round at best, horrible release, holding a clip board.
Which shows how much LSU fans know about AJ, and football for that matter.

I guess they only watched the LSU game. He didn't play well in that game or the A&M game.Against A&M he did have over 300 yards and a few tds though, but it was his 2nd worse game of the year.
In 2011 Bama had zero talent at Wr and he had 16 tds. 2012 Bama Wr talent increased and he threw for 30. In 2013 Bama brings back every single Wr and add Chris Black and DeAndrew White back from injury to go along with OJ Howard.
I'd be surprised if AJ doesn't throw for atleast 3000 yds and 35 tds. If he has that type of season he will go in the top 50 picks. He'll get a shot at being a starter.
Depending on his surroundings he could stick.

Yep, all LSU fans know nothing about football and Bama fans are certifiable NFL scouts.

Hard to get them the ball if the oline can't protect. That is like the first rule of football man.
OL didn't protect very well at times this year, but we will return CyKo and Steen, and Fluker could come back as well.

It also must be said, and I remember reading this yesterday, that AJ was nicked up pretty bad in the Mississippi State game. He played through it but his accuracy suffered for it. He was at 100% strength against Notre Dame, however, and it showed.

No one said this, but LSU fans tend to act like victims so I'm not surprised by you assuming things.

Well...in our defense...your fan base hasn't got a lot of stuff right about Alabama since January 3, 2007.

What's sad is they talked shite about AJ last offseason too, about how he wouldn't do what we were saying he would. Now they're doing it again.
They just don't learn, and they're scared.

If he has that type of season, he is easily going in the 1st round. NFL teams reach ALL THE TIME on QBs.

Yeah...of those 8 incompletions none of them were bad throws. I think one or two were thrown away, 4 were dropped, and a couple more were 6 inches from being long TD passes to Coop.
To be fair though, it was basically a 7 on 7 tournament for our offense.

Outside of 2010 Bama has had a championship caliber line every year under Saban. AJ doesn't need the best line to be effective just one good enough. Of course if the O-line is horrible he will struggle. Bama's line may not dominate, but they will never be horrible.
Tyler Wilson doen't have an elite arm and his production was way down without Petrino and the 3 NFL Wrs they lost from 2011. Nobody questions whether he can be successful at the next level or not.

He didn't have any incompletions that weren't throwaways or drops. The two to Cooper are "drops" in my eyes because Cooper made a half-assed attempt at the ball. He could've just went for it, but Freshman do that shite sometimes.

What I meant to say was:
"In our defense, your fan base hasn't gotten a lot of stuff RIGHT about Alabama since Saban took over."
Many of your fans claimed your defense would be better in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Statistically speaking this didn't pan out. Many of your fans were proclaiming Mettenberger to be McCarron's equal/superior all through the offseason. I think McCarron proved that he was a far better QB.
Going back a few years: Saban will never win in Tiger Stadium, Saban won't be able to recruit, Saban won't be able to win a national championship, Saban won't stay at Alabama any more than 4 years.
You know...stuff like that?

The difference between Bama and LSU is Bama has had a competent offense every year under Saban. 3 different Qbs and the offensed have gotten better almost every year.
LSU hasn't had a 1st rd talent on offense since Saban and Jimbo's players cycled through. While Bama has had multiple 1st rd talents on offense almost every year.

This is what he said. If you are drafted 1st round then you are pretty much going to be the starter.

It's true though. You don't draft a QB in the first round unless you need one really bad. If he is drafted in the first, he will start.

It isn't. If you want to see a long throwing motion, watch Tebow.
While is throwing motion is now near as long as Tebow's, HE DOES drop the ball below his shoulder which elongates his throwing motion. I'm not downing him. He will be a decent pro and if he works on a few points of his game can be a successful qb in the NFL.
Great decision maker, elite accuracy, above avg arm strength. Just needs to work on his deep ball( good in college, not the NFL) and maybe stop dripping the ball below his shoulder during throws.
