I had forgotten about the bumper sticker! Glad he's found his calling in life because an NFL QB was sure not it:

As weird as it sounds, I was considering Brodie Croyle just yesterday..relative to the fact that I think Myles Brennan is built a lot like him and could play like him if given a good offensive line.

I was at that game and it could have been much worse. Auburn was up 21 in the first quarter. Bama’s oline was really bad. Tuberville just started running the clock out when he knew he had it.

Brodie had one of Alabama's worst offensive lines ever, especially the years he got injured.

Oh, did that used to tick me off. That crap alone gave biased asshats something to hammer at in 2004.

Oh I member the times before Bama had Washington Redskins 1980's type O-lines at their disposal. Those were tail end of my college years.

I thought Croyle was a good qb, big arm, skinny but strong. I think Brennan favors him.

Game was crazy. People were betting in the stands on how many sacks auburn would get.


That was a bad Bama offense and line.

I remember an interview with one of Auburn's d linemen after that game. He said on film study they picked up a tell on our o line. His stance dictated whether it was a run or pass.

Better known to Chiefs fans as Brokie Croyle.

He had a knees of glass and was an NFL bust, but I’ll never forget the look on Urban Meyer’s face as Brodie and Co. welcomed him to the SEC 31-3 in 2005. He’s a Bama legend just for that.

That feeling got soured pretty quickly for me with the Prothro injury.

Yes, it sucked but it doesn’t diminish what that Shula coached team did that day.

I still say Brodie Croyle had the most gifted arm of any QB I've ever seen at Bama. Dude threw a gorgeous ball, had an absolute cannon for an arm, but could also put it anywhere on the field with touch and accuracy.

Yep, they knew by their hands, the way their hands were in the ground.

Brodie would have set some records at Alabama if he'd been 5 years younger.

What’s sad is an offensive lineman, you would know if you’re doing it or not.
