It's way too early to say anything like that.

Mac is having a great season, but nothing Tua did was ever as shitty as scoring 14 points for the other team and single-handedly losing the game. But hey, he puts up lots of yards.

So sure, lets evaluate those first 4 starts. Especially the TD/Int ratio and W-L record.

Ha I don’t give a shite what you think and you won’t control anyone’s opinion on here because it isn’t yours. I’ll say what I say and if you don’t like it scroll past it. You aren’t running anything here.

Two 1000+ yard season with Bo Scar running behind him. Blocking ability on film was much better. As a sophomore Damien was able to do what Najee could not. Najee is good. He is not Mark, King Henry, or D Harris.

Henry was a freaking stud no doubt. A huge man when given a seam was deceptively quick. Durable beyond belief. Got STRONGER with more carries.

Ingram alone is what won us the SC game. He started taking direct snaps. He just knew when it had to be him and carry a team.

Mad respect to both.

When it mattered against a good defense he crumbled. That is how you differentiate between a good qb and a great one. The 2018 and 2019 schedules were some of the easiest Alabama has ever had.

Personally I don't think we did Tua any favors with our offensive gameplan. It was like our offense was out playing with a new toy, but we didn't work on being balanced - this may have had something to do with the offensive line as well - but that is why I say I like the current offense much more than the offense under Tua. If we had worked on having a balanced offense cwith Tua, who knows what we could have looked like.

Tua was also a victim of his own success - he torched bad defenses so much that he didn't realize he needed to change his game up when the defense can compete. At least that is my take on it. The poor Alabama defense, offensive system and injuries all combine to make his career here tough to fully grasp.

I left hours ago and you were bitching about an ex Alabama qb, come back hours later and you're still bitching about an ex Alabama qb.

Do you live in Costa Rica?

Hahahahaha it is shiny. I’ve caught a lot fish today. I do live in Costa Rica. You fellas have a good evening. I take it all back. Tua is probably the best quarterback we’ve ever had.

>One interception was pick 6 and the second caused clemson to immediately score.

Only one of those picks on Tua.

The first, was a designed play jumped by the corner in disguised coverage. It was a quick throw on a blitz and the corner jumped the route. That's on Tua. LINK

The second was disguised coverage, and brilliantly at that, to bait a long thrown similar to Georgia. I believe Dabo even stated in the postgame that was the throw they were looking for.

I'm not going to view 22/34 2TD, 2Int anywhere close to bad in that game considering the redzone play calling. He was a competent coordinator from having five touchdowns instead of 2. That was moreso getting outcoached and they whipped Locksley all day.

I'm also curious what the qualifier is for "Top 30 defense", because Auburn and LSU were both top 30 in 2018 and he went 6 total TD's 0 ints on the former. His line would be 12-6 with 60%+ completion. If it's volume that's an incredibly bunk qualifier.
