I admit that he was stubborn sometimes when we should have been pounding the rock, but everyone has their flaws.
2012 LSU, 2012 Georgia, and the 2014 Sugar Bowls are examples of that.
Alabama should have thrown deep more versus 2012 Texas A&M and passed more versus 2013 Auburn.
All of those teams were Top 10 opponents. It's a pretty big deal to have poor playcalling versus Top 10 teams. Who really cares about the offense looking good versus teams that have lost 3 or more games. When it came to playcalling against the SEC's best, he faltered, and Alabama was fortunate to overcome that a few times.

I had no problem with his playcalling in the 2013 IB. Our players just didn't execute, plain and simple.
2012 UGA is a good example, but he turned it around in the second half, whether you believe that that was all Saban or not.
The second half of 2012 LSU was kind of a head scratcher, I agree.
And didnt AJ throw for nearly 400 yards against A&M in 2012? And we should've thrown more, you say?
The Sugar Bowl was just a bad performance all around by our team. Nuss didn't turn the ball over like we did.
