Does your team's QB have what it takes to win a national title? (247Sports | segment)
quote:
Earlier this month, 247Sports' Bud Elliott gave you the Blue-Chip Ratio, a minimum standard of roster-wide talent (4 & 5* > 50%) to win a national championship. I contend that a further barrier of entry in today’s game is the quarterback position. Using the 15 Blue-Chip Ratio teams that are championship capable, I took it upon myself to judge whether there’s a fighter pilot or bus driver in the cockpit. Does it have a quarterback that can emerge as a first round pick? Because that’s what it will need to beat to win it all.
ALABAMA
Blue-Chip Ratio: 83 percent
Quarterback: Fighter Pilot
Mac Jones isn’t a fighter pilot at quarterback, at least not yet, not based on what we’ve seen (remember the Iron Bowl?), but Alabama is in a favorable spot here: Either Jones, the veteran, evolves into a fighter pilot or true freshman 5-star Bryce Young overtakes him at some point during the season. We could see shades of Clemson in 2018 when Kelly Bryant gave way to Trevor Lawrence.
