Is the negativity over?

Or are we still not good enough to satisfy you spoiled brats?

Still concerned some with the Oline play. AJ was hit a lot. But, they showed improvement. I'm happy with that, and I think that's all anyone wanted to see previously.

We're undefeated and are gonna win 11 games at an absolute minimum. And I'd bet the farm on the over

I was pleased with Saturdays effort. However, I'm still concerned about the penalties, the O-line play and the receivers inability to get separation

I would bet that also. All anyone wanted was to start seeing improvement, and after 4 games, there was marked improvement. I think most everyone is feeling better moving forward now and is a bit more optimistic.

Definitely getting better. The schedule provides a great opportunity to improve.
However, like Livia Soprano before me, negativity is what I'm into.

Doug Nussmeir needs to get his head out of his arse. Our route combinations have been high school level this year.
3rd and 9? 4 yard drag route, no one will expect that.

Yeah Nuss sucks, we need McElwain back.
Better yet, Dave Rader

I'm still not satisfied. I think this is the best group of skill positions Saban has had, but the worst offense in years. The Oline is yet to show me they can satisfy my spoiled expectations.

Just want running game to improve and get consistent. I'm not good enough (as far as reading football) to be able to tell if it's the offensive line or the RB's. But the flashes of really HOT runs make me think it's got to be the o-line not mentally syncing up and knowing when to make that lean left / lean right when the exact X's and O's play call doesn't go pitch perfect.
THEN I'll be really happy.

Not sure if serious. One of those is not like the other. Mac was the man

For the record, there is something to both sides of Posi / Nega-gumps thing...
As reflected by the LSU fans VERY well on the tiger rant, the truth lies usually somewhere in between due to human emotion. It's good to be positive and faithful and supportive, but not to a fault. Likewise, it's good to be critical and realistic about what you see... but not to a fault.
I think what we have with the whole "negativity" thing at least on this board is simple... most of our fans here, regardless of age or maturity, have a realistic understanding of what they've been seeing in the Saban era. It only comes off negative because i mean god damn... a team can only play on the consistent level Saban has had us at for SO long before seeing some sort of small dip.
Hey, at least it's not boring!

Nuss's play calling was very good last year.
Not sure if you guys remember but Mac's offense inside the Red Zone was terrible.
IMO if Bama had Mac right now there's no way Bama scores more than they already are scoring.JMHO

I was about to say the same thing legend. Red zone td % was awesome last year. I really like nuss. I don't blame him a bit for the lack of production. It is not his fault that we consistently have linemen getting physically beat. Play selection doesn't matter much when we aren't blocking the guys in front of us. Everything comes back to the o-line.

Bama loses to LSU and UGA last year, and A&M this year, with Mac as OC

I would not trade Nuss to get Mac back.
