Its a shame we won't have 3 years of Sims to better compare the two.

AJ was somewhere between a gamemanager and gamebreaker. He was both underrated & overrated at the same time. AJ was a winner, but his attitude probably contributed to our play down the stretch in 2013. He wasn't a "great" QB in terms of his ability but he was better than a McElroy or JPW type QB.

IMO, if we had AJ this year, we lose another game or two. Blake has made plays (running & passing) that AJ never made and we needed that type of QB play this year. Blake also proved to be just as clutch. When AJ had a bad game, he rarely turned it around. Blake seems to possess the ability to get of a funk quicker. Maybe that credit goes to Kiffin, so its tough to judge on that criteria.

That all being said, Blake Sims is a better QB at this moment in his career.

Well Blake put himself in those funks with picks and fumbles. Blake did a lot of head scratching things this year. AJ didn't seem to make those mistakes.
