Does anybody think Jeremy Johnson is/will be better than the Nick Marshall though?

Marshall torched and ran on Alabama. I don't think Johnson would have been as effective vs Bama.

Johnson said Nick Marshall will win Heisman before season started

Jeremy Johnson is about 35 lbs short of being the brute of a running threat that is Cardale Jones. Johnson is actually more of the typical pro-style QB at 6'6" and 215 lbs.



JJ is a milkshake shy of 240, not 215.

He will be a better passer. No idea if he will be more successful over all. They are pretty different, so it is hard to compare them.

Yes. They are two very different quarterbacks but Jeremy will play in the league. Jeremy is a pocket passer who will pick defenses apart. He is a slightly above average runner. Marshall had a huge arm but not accurate and a very good runner. Gus will adjust his offense accordingly like he has done at every stop.

ETA JJ is also very calm in the pocket, knows his reads and progressions...he will be great

Why are you using his HS weight?

Johnson has put on at least 15 lbs since being at Auburn.

UGA fans are not used to players being developed once they're out of HS

Impossible to say but he probably would have picked Bama's secondary apart

They're also not used to them finishing their eligibility at UGA either.

Cardale Jones wouldn't have seen the field if not for 2 injuries. Tom Brady got his chance due to an injury as well.

Honestly Gus could have made a case for JJ starting over Nick Marshall & we would have been good with it. Our passing game will be on a level next year we haven't had since Jason Campbell.

Will be unstoppable with an air raid passing attack to Duke Williams balanced out with a stong running game with Roc Thomas and Jovon.

Because he needed to develop in the running game which is majority of our offense.

Jeremy is not as physical as Cardale, but much better as a passer. I am very optimistic about the season!


I do not know many quarterbacks who are as physical as that monster.

Not many are - Cardale has a rocket for an arm, is very efficient, makes good reads and can stretch out and get the yards himself when needed.
