Our OLine has not been run blocking well at all the past two games,

I disagree it isn't DL in ourbackfield there is always a safety or cb flying up to stop the run and we can't seem to get them
to respect the pass. Until we burn the consistantly no one will

And that is because we aren't getting the push that we need by the oline. It all starts in the trenches and we really haven't been getting it done the last two weeks.

Yes Bama would be better off with AJ at QB. The only reason he isn't playing is Saban and his staff don't want to ruin the competitiveness of the games.

I'm with you. The way the line is being crowded, because of the run game, we should have more options with the pass. I haven't seen a deep ball catchable, non-catchable, since our O has hit the skids. Yeah, I know, I know, to's are more likely. I just think even incompletions deep would, at the least, loosen up the D's.

WElll if OLis the problem then we are screwed either way because we WILL lose to LSU and Auburn and probably MS St if we can't block because their DL are the best we will face all yr

I just don't think McElroy has any faith in his deep ball accuracy. It's like he thinks that there's a better chance of the ball being intercepted than being placed in the right spot. Those issues have gotten noticeably worse since the Arkansas game.

Dude, you think we're gonna lose every game we play. A new qb ain't gonna change that. Is there any particular reason why you're so pessimistic?

Can't argue with you there. It seems like when the 1st option is taken away, he panics. The more this happens, the more he stares down receivers.
