Only if you want to win the game. Otherwise, meh.

You don't throw 30 TDs and only 3 INTs because you are a game manager.


In 2009, Jimmy Clausen had 28 TDs and 4 INTs.

Not bad, not bad. Took him 111 more pass attempts to get those 28 TDs.

Imagine if he was the 11th most talented player on his starting offense? Probably would have taken him 111 less.

He is right though... McCarron is a product of his enviroment. Hes not a great QB, at best he is a game manager. He had so much talent around him he would actually have to try to mess up to lose a game (which he did with the last minute pick against A&M). Cant believe you guys dont see the fact that hes not some elite QB. Hes good dont get me wrong. But you are giving him way to much credit for the talent he has carrying him.

Guess you think Mario Chalmers should have won NBA Finals MVP too?


How can anyone deny he is not the ultimate game manager? It takes a special QB to win two titles and not even make the top three for the heisman last year.
It's not a knock on him, its just the truth. Sure he does well when you can run the ball and you can make the defense bite on play action. That's his game. Nothing more, nothing less.

When people get in the backfield or the run game is not working, you have a game like VaTech. If you put AJ on a team that can't run the ball, he is not going to light up the stats in the passing arena.

You're right. Michael Floyd, Golden Tate and Kyle Rudolph weren't very good.

I remember when you guys were just about to start the season in 2012, and your fan base's collective troll attempts were very, very sad. I wrote this post and I swear half of your posts have pretty much followed that format. I don't know if you followed and then amended it or simply came up with something similar on your own, but your trolls are definitely formulaic.

I don't know why people, especially Bama fans pay attention to anything TeLa post anymore. He is very open about his utter hate for Alabama and his want to troll at any chance he gets. Alabama fans, he is never going to concede anything, it's best to just let him have his fun.

I once got in an argument with him where he claimed that our mistakes in the game last year were irrelevant to the outcome of the game while their mistakes were the sole reason we were even back in the game. I realized then he would never concede anything at all and pretty much ignored him since.

You missed the whole point I was making. Think Gordon Bombay.

Rice's offensive line was filled with seniors. 60% of Bama's offensive line has never faced an SEC opponent.



Your defense is not that of an SEC opponent. Bro.
