Agree or disagree?
If you disagree, who would rank ahead of him?

Most impressive QB performance against Bama I've seen and that was with zero running game between the tackles.

Agree. It's gonna be tough to keep the heisman from him next year.

Saban doesn't know dominate from dominant

Disagree. For example Manziel had 1410 yards rushing - 21 TDs in the SEC.
Watson had 1105 yards and only 12 TDs and plays in the ACC

Saban's one of the best in the business and he's game planned and schemed for a lot of QBs....I'll agree with him.

Depends on how to classify Luck since he was drafted after Cam

Manziel
Yea - that is the only other guy I would probably say is in that conversation.
Winston was great, but his 2nd season he wasn't really "dominant".
Manziel is the only other guy who could control a game by himself like Watson does.

Yeah, I gotta agree with the other poster who said Manziel was better. But Watson is right there in the same conversation.
I'm of the opinion that Manziel was every bit a game changer as Cam. Dude was damn near unstoppable. Only Kevin Sumlin and Houston Nutt could fu(k up with a player that good.

Yea - when I think of dominant, or I think the way Saban is defining it, I think of a guy who can totally take over a game by himself and elevate the entire team to a level they probably shouldn't be able to play at.
Watson and Manziel did that. I'll be honest, I didn't watch Luck enough at Stanford to know if he did (and Saban probably didn't either). I don't really think a running back can even do it. I think it really almost has to be a dual threat type QB who makes things happen even when all seems lost like Watson and Manziel do/did.
Manziel, Watson and Cam are the only 3 players I've seen in the last 10 years or so (and saw all in person) who were able to smoothly avoid pressure, run around looking crazy and then calmly stop and make impossible throws down the field. Tebow was able to do that to an extent, but he didn't really run controlled chaos like those 3 did.

Agreed. He can't be stopped.

He is not a great QB. I think he is good though. Since Cam, I would say RGIII and Mariota are better QB's and more dominant than Watson.
Luck was as well.
If Malik Zaire did not get hurt I think he would have put same kind of numbers up as Watson did.
