Here is the shock factor JJ runs a 4.51 forty.Marshall a 4.53 and Newton a 4.58.He was Mr Football and Mr Basketball so Im sure he has some agility and can run when he has to.With a battering ram running back they dont need a duel threat qb Robinson can fall forward for three yards each carry. They will use Marshall set out of the wildcat with either Jason Smith or Kerryon Johnson. Auburn WRs lived wide open,Johnson wont miss.Id be very afraid of this offense.Defense in reality only needs to be slightly better.



NM greatness wasn't in his top end speed (though formidable) it was in his elusive nature. I expect JJ to run well, but I have no belief it will cause anyone to game plan around. Save if he becomes a short yardage back like Cam. The only problem with that is now that Cam has made it to the NFL no college QB with those skills wants to take the beating Cam took for fear it might hurt his NFL career. Look at Cam's 3rd and 4th down carries in 2010, we really over used him because we had to to get it done.

I can't wait till the season starts. Despite my cautious approach in this thread I do believe JJ is going to be great and has the potential to be special.

As well as his 10-yd acceleration.

I'm betting it took Cam and will take JJ a lil bit more time to get to top speed.

There was no QB last year better at making lemonade out of shite. Marshall was elusive but also had great instincts to avoid trouble and make plays.

However, the most important aspect of a QB is how the perform under pressure. It has separated a lot of talented QB's from the ones that are great.


I never claimed otherwise. I simply have taken the position I have confidence before the season begins, that JJ has the mental aptitude to arise to the challenges one goes through as a QB.

Because I have confidence of that I also believe we will be having the discussion "Jeremy Johnson will be hard to replace, I sure hope White can come through for us."

I suspect he'll be hard to replace even if isn't lights out in crunch time.

That little bastard may have been the slipperiest (probably not a word) SOB I've ever seen play SEC football... Always made the first guy miss.
