Milroe had 6 quarters as a "starter"


And five turnovers. If he’s the starter I’m pulling for him but I hope he gets off to a better start this year.

you’re on the internet dude look up his stats.

ETA: I was wrong about the 3 picks and 2 fumbles as the starter. 2 of those picks were as a backup.

Milroe vs A&M - 12/19, 111 yds, 1 int

Alabama as a team had 3 fumbles lost but one of those was Jase McClellan.

Have a look for yourself

Rest assured if he turns it over a lot he won’t play.

Jalen hurts vs uga in the natty was pretty dang ugly.


Most of the second half of that year (Miss St, Auburn, Clemson, UGA) was gross.

Hell yea, brother.

Let's give Milroe hell so he turns out to be Jalen Hurts 2.0.

In a way, it's actually worse that he threw 2 picks vs. non-P5 opponents in garbage time.

Look, I don't think anyone likes that we're going to have a running back playing QB. We just have to wait it out, wait for his shortcomings to lose (or almost lose) us a game, and then we'll see the REAL QB. Saban has been saying this - y'all just haven't been reading between the lines.
The reason he didn't release a depth chart is because he is PLANNING on yanking Milroe when the time is right.

All this talk about "Just because a guy is number 1 right now, doesn't mean it will stay that way" is just code for "Jalen Milroe is our starter right now, but we have better QBs to put in there when things inevitably go sideways."

Yes because Saban is going to play the inferior QB until it costs us a game and then substitute in the better QB who's been riding the bench because "reasons". You've uncovered his master plan.

I mean didn't we see him do this with the Tua/Jalen situation, and also when we lost to Ole Miss due to the Cooper Buttman experiment?

Saban has always been pretty weird around QB competitions, and this whole hiding the depth chart thing is just another example

I'd be willing to bet anyone that we will see Milroe get yanked vs. Texas.

It's easier to just skip over that dude's posts. Outed himself months ago after saying Bama was in "DEEP shite" at WR, RB, QB, OLine, and Dline, and that none were talented enough for Bama to win this season.

I outed myself? Bro you're such a retard.

First of all, I never mentioned the RB position or the Dline - I've been saying everywhere that I am optimistic about our entire defense. Nobody cares about the positive things I say.

I only mentioned the Oline because somebody who had attended practice said our Oline "had a long ways to go". I have no idea how good our OLine will be.

I said we're in deep shite at WR and QB because we ARE. Our WRs were pretty bad last year (we have the same ones this year), and Milroe is about to be our starting QB.

If Buchner becomes the QB, I think the sky is the limit for this team.

Buchner's turnover issues are just as prevalent as Milroe's he's just slower. Buchner has 6 career passing TDs to 8 interceptions. You're a ridiculous person.

Bookmarked for when Buchner comes in against Texas and cleans up Milroe's mess.
