Yeah, Waddle is a better athlete than Jeudy. More dangerous. He's like Kenyan Drake crossed with Percy Harvin
I think Waddle is the most dangerous man in cfb. He just hasn't gotten many opportunities. I think he's the most explosive offensive weapon we've ever had

I am on the Thompson train. Jesus this kid is good. Speaking of good, since coach never plays kids because of seniority ole Hootie Jones must have been a terror back there last year to keep Thompson on the bench.
I don’t guess it’s possible that Thompson, who is certainly a playmaker, improved dramatically from last year? You’re an idiot if you don’t think Saban plays whoever gives Bama the best chance to win.

I'm interested to see what comes from this two-tailback look we showed a few times last night. I think there's a lot more there than we saw last night, but we ended up not really needing to show it. It's a good way to get some of our best players on the field.
I saw that as well and will be interesting but like it. I also really like the way we are using the TEs in the game plan. I mentioned before the season I think this offense could end up like USC back in 2005.
I also really liked Hurts first throw but I do wish Jones would get more meaningful snaps with the 1's.

It really pisses me off to think that this probably really should have been Tua’s 15th or 16th start instead of his 3rd. He was ready to go by Game 3 last season, if not sooner.

I agree that Tua shouldn’t be holding
Wouldn't be suprised if they are setting up for a trick play.

Quinten William's murdered PFF's algorithm, he made their team of the week for his game yesterday.
I'm still worried about the Kickers, glad the offense is otherworldly. DeLong just has no umph in his punts,Bulovas is still getting there in all phases. Those coverage units seem pretty salty though.
Deonte Brown needs to cut some weight, he looks too big and was beaten by Benito Jones every snap he got. Reason Mac Jones and Brian Robinson couldn't get much going.
I'm patiently waiting for Waddle to take some sweeps, they are setting it up...

i'm not gonna get into insults here, but it's quite obvious this is not 100% correct. i can cite our qb situation last year or kicking situation to start this season.

Why does that piss you off? Cause we could’ve won the natty last year if we’d started Tua earlier?

last season, when he put Tua into the NC game and we won?

Part of me hopes I end up in a nursing home many years from now, after Saban finishes with 8-10 natty's at Bama, with a saban n bear type personality still lamenting about him not playing Tua in 2017.
Me: But SNB he is the greatest coach ever. We still won the Natty that year. Tua coming in at half of the championship game is arguably the greatest story in college football history.
SNB character: F--- him. He cost us 12 games of Tua. Also I think the fat nurse is an Auburn fan and she is changing out my blood pressure medicine with Skittles so I'll die.

We don't know that Tua would've come into the game and beat Auburn. Probably would have, but it's conjecture

8 is the best RB we have as of today with #34 2nd. Nick needs to jerk a knot in #22 and explain to him to hit the hole and stop his dancing.
Where have I seen this before?

Great points guys.
Totally agree on N. Harris. Dude has got to turn upfield and hit the hole. Way too much sideline to sideline.
Jacobs does appear to be the best all around back but D. Harris is always good for 4-8 yds.
I'm nearly 50 and Tua is the best QB I've ever seen at Bama, it's not even close.
Thompson and Diggs played very well yesterday. D line is starting to gel a bit better.
OL was DOMINATING but their defense is shite.
I nearly shite my pants when Mack got dinged.
This is going to be a fun team to watch.

I think Mack either took a nut shot or was trying to slow their offense down.

Of course. Because you were in camp last year and Tua was just as good in September as he was against Georgia. But Saban kept him on the bench out of some misguided loyalty to Hurts. And then, you were there this year and same him do the same thing to a transfer kicker from Temple. The fact he recruited and signed Bulovas didn’t count for shite. Not until Austin Jones proved his performance in games couldn’t match what he did on the practice field.

Glad Diggs had a good game and is getting some respect.
He got tourched in a spring game by two NFL WRs after swapping positions and was labeled as incapable of improving.

Well, what about Mark Guillon?
