Tua has been phenomenal, but I think we haven't given our recivers enough credit to go along with his.

Henry Ruggs III, Devonta Smith, Jerry Jeudy, Jaylen Waddle, Irv Smith, and Damien Harris have all been tearing it up with not only getting open and great seperation, but also putting up big numbers with YAC. They have had great hands with very few drops.

Alot of that is in credit to Tua for throwing dimes, but alot of that is in credit to them as well.

All the recievers can burn you and leave you looking like a fool and even if you don't forget about them Irv Smith is gonna be open for a big gain.

Tua on the other hand does a fantastic job of taking what the defense is giving him, reading the D quickly, staring off defenders, and knowing where to go with the football.

I'd say 60% Tua and 40% to the receiving Corp.

True but at the same time, it's easy to catch when Tua's putting it directly into their hands.

It's not that hard to get open when you are playing against North Dakota State A&M Poly Tech every weekend.

A lot. Tua is throwing to open guys and he is throwing guys open when he has to. It's a beautiful thing right now.

Agreed. It's a symbiotic thing.

I'd say 60% offensive line, 20% Tua, and 20% receiving corp.

Well in that case, Jalen should also be throwing a TD every 6 passes or so.

If this is the year we finally end up beating these frickers when they've finally seemed to reach their zenith I may just evaporate in Tiger Stadium like Odin in Thor: Ragnarok.

All I'm saying is that the Bama linemen should get most of the credit.

Reminds me of Sandlot when Rodriguez tells Smalls to "just hold your glove out man, I'll take care of the rest."
