this is the softest Alabama football team I have seen in years, (even when coach Dubose was running the show)
Yeah. No. This is a very talented football team.
quote:
and as we stand right now the only teams I believe we are better than in the west is Arky and maybe MSU.
MSU gave up 34 points and 548 yards to UAB. Maybe better? Jesus. MSU was outgained by UAB. Alabama is just as good and just as unproven as LSU, Ole Miss, AU and aTm. Whoever wins out of those four is a mystery but they all have a shot at the west.
quote:
All these #1 recruiting classes and FAU gashing our Dline up the middle,
57 yards rushing, one of those being a single 30 yard rush against backups. 28 yards rushing against WVU on 24 attempts. 85 yards allowed in two games. 6th in the country, 1st in the SEC on average yards/rush. I have no idea what you're talking about.
quote:
no pressure on the QB
6 sacks in two games, second in the SEC.
quote:
CB's look like they couldn't start for Sam Houston St
One forced a fumble against FAU and there were multiple pass breakups in the game. FAU passed for 88 yards. They struggled against WVU but were without Eddie Jackson.
quote:
, the LB'ers look like they have no idea what they are doing, TJ Yeldon is good but nothing special,
Yeldon is on pace to break the rushing record in Alabama history and has a 5.6 average this year. He's doing well. He's always done well. He's very special.
quote:
Derrick Henry is the softest 240lb RB I've seen, noway would mark ingram, trent or eddie lacy would be getting tackled by these lil leg tackles, and his vision thats a joke,
6.2 average, 10.6 average, is in no way soft. He has great vision and speed for how big he is. Leg tackles are actually how you're supposed to bring down big guys like him and they are in no way foolproof.
quote:
Kenyan Drake is our best back and he's third string...there
He's the fastest. He's not Alabama's best back.

I called it how I see it, does that make me any less of a Bama fan?
Not less of one, just a really poor judge of football talent.
quote:
but when I say Amari Cooper is a beast does that make me more of a Bama fan?
No, it just makes you correct.

OP needs to watch out, a fellow Bammer might shoot him for not being enthusiastic enough.

6 rustled Alabama fans on the first page alone. Not bad

Since he is not a Bama fan I hope he locks the trailer tonight, Auburn players on bye week.

Of course they do. But going 1-2 against Aggie and Losing 2 in a row to Auburn will cause many wife beatings state wide.

Typical homer answers...I bet you thought Adrian Hubbard was a great player for bama too, I have been asking "why is this guy starting" he sucks, and I was saying that before I saw him with no shirt...and you thought Cyrus Kouandjio was the best LT in the SEC didn't you?... I'm sorry I'm just not one of those fans that think we have the best players on our team and I call it when I see it...and speaking of racist, look at how a lot of these bama fans have acted towards blake sims being the QB just because he's black, if blake was white y'all would be saying "we have the next johnny manziel" but instead you're still trying to find a way to put a guy who has only been on campus for six months in the game, when coach put jake in I thought we scored a td the way the crowd reacted and was celebrating, most of you guys are a joke and I really hate to share my team with you. But I will cont to support my team my way and when I see a guy like Denzel Devall starting on our D I'm going to cont to say "why is he starting?" has anyone seen him get a sack or a TFL? has anyone seen him make a play because I can't remember a single play he has made since he's been here...now you can call me a auburn alter for saying I think devall sucks and he should probably be playing for Colorado State, I don't care how many stars he was in high school he's not producing and with all these "#1 class" players we should have somebody who can take his spot and produce, and if our D scheme is so complicated where a younger guy can't get it then we might need to consider dumbing this so called complicated D down, the game is changing, and if we really have freak athletes then let them go and be freaks get after the QB play man to man D...but you know why coach won't do that, because he knows Cyrus Jones suck, he knows Nick Perry is trash, he knows Geno Smith is soft, he knows Reggie Ragland and Reubon Foster are dumb as a rock right now so he's trying to protect our weaknesses, I call it how I see it RTR!!

This is actually fact. Will have the best NFL career as well

Yeah he wasn't bad. He had some good plays while he was here.
quote:
Cyrus Kouandjio was the best LT in the SEC didn't you
He was one of the best in the SEC yeah. He's pretty good.
Also the next half of that paragraph doesn't apply to me because I love Sims and think Coker is not the guy. The team plays better with Sims. He is going to do some damage this year.
quote:

"played in 27 career games as a reserve linebacker and pass-rush specialist with 48 career tackles, eight tackles for loss and five sacks."
Pre-this season stats.
quote:
Cyrus Jones
Actually pretty good. I'm not going to doom and gloom like you and say our season is lost because we have average corners. We cannot and HAVE NEVER been excellent at all positions on the field at the same time. That's just not how college football works. You're going to have weak links.
quote:
Nick Perry
I agree. Nick Perry is garbage.
quote:
Geno Smith
Meh. No opinion.
quote:
Reggie Ragland and Reubon Foster
Ragland has impressed me. They're both young, give them time.
You also don't mention anything about the bright spots of this team. Yes there are negatives but as a whole this team should be exciting to you. Sims gives the offense a completely new look. Cooper, Yeldon, Henry, OJ, White, Drake, are all insanely good playmakers. And that is not just in Alabama fans eyes. That's nationwide.
On defense, Landon Collins is a leader, DePriest is a leader, and our D-line is improving on pressure. I've actually seen a lot of sacks in these first two games. Corners, Eddie Jackson looks like a beast. He hits hard and really fights every play. Watch against FAU. When he misses an INT, or doesn't bring his man down right away he smacks the ground and is upset about it. His head is in the game every play.
Also keep in mind before Mosley became the All-American player he was, most people thought nothing of him. In his 2011 campaign he was actually called "soft", "garbage" and "shitty" by people much like you. Players change, they change during, before and after the season, and the closer you watch them, the more exciting it is to spot that transformation.
That being said, watch how the season unfolds and stop bashing Alabama fans for being fans of their team's players.

It's not that you don't pump sunshine is that you are wrong on so many points. This is not the best team or even close that Saban has fielded in his tenure at Alabama but they aren't soft just young.
Posted on 9/10/14 at 3:51 am to houndstoothbandit
Bama has played soft. If they continue to play soft they'll be lucky to win 8-9 games.
