I for one am excited. This year will be the first time since Cam that we've had a true top caliber candidate playing the QB position. Nothing against Marshall, but he was a Kodi Burns 2.0 at the QB position: plenty of athletic ability but terrible accuracy. I only wish Sammie Coates had returned. He was wide open on a lot of deep routes and got overthrown at least 3 times a game. How many yards and TDs would Sammie have had, if Marshall had the touch and accuracy that JJ does?

This is crazy. NM is NOT Kodi 2.0. He missed some open targets but managed the 2nd best deep ball percentage. All QB's miss open targets. The problem with your last question is it fails to factor in other obvious issues.

How many sacks would JJ take because he doesn't possess NM elusive nature? How many late bullets that NM threw would JJ be able to throw because we have no idea how he will perform under pressure? The list is long. I expect great things for JJ but I fear for some Auburn fans that may not see the forrest for the trees.

You are fricking drunk


Marshall was one of the best QB's we have had in a long time other than Cam.


Dude did exactly what he was asked to do and with very little head start. He made some serious plays for us.
