have nothing against SW, but he isn't a championship level QB at Auburn. 


SW was one of the most efficient passers in the SEC when he was healthy. It's easy to sit behind a keyboard and call someone brittle when you aren't out there scrambling for yards and taking hard licks.

Edit: Not saying that you called him brittle but that is a cause of concern for those that don't think he's a championship QB.

Using GM from bama isn't a fair comparison. the level of talent surrounding him is higher than what Auburn has currently.


You should do a roster comparison.. would be interesting. I just think they are the same type of QB.

To be clear, I think he plays hard and has some aspects of his game which are impressive. I don't believe he has the physical tools to compete at a championship level in the SEC. He lacks arm strength and down field accuracy. He doesn't run well enough to cover the sins of an average oline which Gus has made a killing off as a OC and Head Coach. His size limits his vision and ability to release quickly. I believe SW is a 7-8 win QB in the SEC west with the talent surrounding him at Auburn. The injuries are also a concern, but I don't believe SW healthy can do much more than what he has already done. We probably win 9 this past year with him healthy.
