We need to run more RPOs with him. Deadly accurate with a quick release.



He still struggles with his decision making on that score. There was a play in the second half that I remember vividly where had he handed the ball to the RB it's 15 yards and a first down. Instead he pulled it and kept it himself, resulting in a loss of yardage on the play.

He made similar decisions against East Carolina and Kentucky on those plays.

It’s like he is the offspring of Jalen Milroe and Ty Simpson. Honestly a taller version of Bryce Young with a better arm. He is making elite level throws into some very tight windows and is uncanny at this age and experience level understanding defensive schemes and coverages. I think the next step in his development is how he performs against an elite defense like Georgia. I know Grubb gets a ton of criticism and rightly so for lots of things but developing him as a pocket passer first and not a dual threat QB is the wisest decision that man can make for not only his career at Bama but first his future in the league.

Great talent, but has faced some atrocious teams to date. Let’s pump the breaks a bit here.

Incredible throwing motion.

He can make any and all throws and seems to read the field incredibly quick. Awesome QB and fun to watch.

I enjoy watching a good QB play. I like MSU’s QB as well

Too bad his cohorts on the defensive side of the ball couldn't stop a runaway Roomba.

You mean the defense that gave up 18 points and scored a pick 6?

We tried against Kentucky and he honestly wasn’t great at it yet.

If he adds that consistently he becomes one of those guys you don’t try to stop you just hope to keep under a certain score.

Bama hasn't played any team with a winning record yet. wait until he plays against an actual defense.

Something tells me will will be learning much more about Keelon & MSU over the next 3 weeks. Matchups with Bama & LSU will provide the full picture.

Great take by Moscona when he tried to troll Alabama fans when Deboer flipped Rusell. It looks dumber and dumber every week.

Yep. My bad. Russell is good but I’m way more impressed with the kid at Mississippi State.
