So basically Bryant doesn't have great deep(er) ball either, but handles the short throws under pressure WAY better than Hurts?
That stat goes a long way when talking keeping drives alive on 3rd down.
Bryant isn't Watson. But if Clemson's defense shows up, he doesn't need to be.
I'm really excited to see what Hurts can do in this game. And I trust him more than Bryant in this game.
But I don't think Alabama has this big advantage because of Watson being gone and replaced with Bryant. Clemson's DL is ridiculous.

The difference will be the gameplan. Our defense is going to look the same and never be any different so they will know ehat to do.

Yep Hurts has at least been on this stage before. I think he will rise to the occasion and the coaching staff and game plan will help him succeed. Would love to see our ENTIRE fan base get behind Hurts these next few weeks and save the “debate” for the off season. We are one of 4 teams that have a chance to win the NC. That’s not something that should be taken for granted. Let’s fricking go.

How are people not realizing that the completions under pressure for Jalen are a direct result of being careful with the ball and throwing it away. This is why Jalen has thrown 3 more TDs and no interceptions. The difference in TDs to INTs under pressure is more of a glaring stat than the completion percentage is in favor of Bryant.

Bryant's short throws are almost all get it out quick screens. They are basically extended runs. When he has to make big time QB throws down the field to his 2nd or 3rd receiver he is not much better than Jalen is.
Bryant is probably a bit better at reads and throwing to secondary guys (mostly quick slant/in route type stuff), but not a ton, and he's pretty bad down the field (worse than Jalen).
