Saw him play Saturday. He's a baller.

Proud of AJ.

AJ McCarron, QB, Alabama

• Improved record as starter to 27-2, including a 15-0 mark away from Tuscaloosa.
• Now second in UA record backs for passing yardage (passing Brodie Croyle) with 6,400 yards.
• 4 TD passes tied his career-best.
• Also responsible for checking at line of scrimmage for run plays as Alabama totaled 234 yards on the ground (568 yards total)
• McCarron was the Athlon Sports National Player of the Week .

Jeff Scott; DOUCHEBAG overrated and worst attidute since cam newton

Maybe I'm biased, but Mike Evans outperformed McCarron.

Bama got the win, but there are more QBs that had weeks like McCarron than WRs that had weeks like Evans.

Go Hogs.

QBs will always get the love over WRs. Especially if the WRs team loses.

i think AJ deserved it over Manziel.

I agree.

1) Mike Evans
2) AJ McCarron
3) Manziel (2 INTs cost him)

I'd give it to McCarron. Manziel played lights-out, and certainly deserves it too, but McCarron pretty much took control of that game. After the first quarter, Manziel played catch-up almost entirely because of how well McCarron was running the Bama offense.

Guess I didn't think of it like that.
