So many good flood routes by GB and SD this afternoon. Old school zone-buster, flood routes...Rivers and Rodgers make it look so easy.
Hope Kyle can find a semblance of that type of accuracy again...

Those are two of the best QBs in the world, ijs.

Hell, Rodgers is in the convo for best EVER

Not fair to compare Kyle to that. Those NFL QBs make a lot of difficult plays look easy.

Saban doesn't run a zone. He runs a mattern-match, 1/2 zone, 1/2 man mind frick.

Kyle wasn't up to the task.

Not trying to hold Kyle to that standard yet TBird. Just a FRACTION of that kind of accuracy, against top competition, would be fine with me. I think he has that kind of potential...

Bama played some interesting coverages yesterday. Being in the stadium and watching the secondary. They routinely played a hybrid cover two man with the linebackers in zone and corners in man. Most teams won't do that because it leaves TEs and RBs wide open outside the range of the linebackers. Since we don't use TEs in the passing game and Carson is less dangerous than my wife out of the backfield, it wasn't an issue.

it's called rip/liz and it's pretty much what made Saban famous working for Belichek



here is a full 22 shot from the 2013 game and you can really see it
