AJ will not see anything in the NFL that he doesn't see at practice.
If he is real lucky he will be drafted by Denver .
Ok

No, we are saying that we had two badass, NFL ready RBs, and an Oline that was full of future NFL players, and we shouldve ran the ball.

You can't be serious? So us thinking we should've ran the ball in that situation all of a sudden means we have 0 confidence in AJ's ability? think about how stupid that sounds.

It's also much tougher to pass the ball when you're inside the 10 yard line because there's very little space. With our OL, it would have been much easier to run the ball.

FWIW, I'm one of the people that thinks Alabama will not just beat, but shut down A&M this year. I think A&M got lucky with the timinf of the Bama game last year, and Bama was caught off-guard by Manziel. That won't happen again - with a year to prepare, Saban will have a game plan that makes him much less of a factor. Plus, that's the game they'll all want, more than any other this season. I could be wrong, but I see Bama winning that game pretty easily, and AJ having a big day with all their receivers. I'm not a big fan of AJ, but he's a good QB, with a strong line in front of him and a ton of weapons.

And your QB is not at all ready for the next level and is at his best when handing the ball off. I'm with you

Anyone who knows our offense knows we call a run a pass and a auto check every play.

Seems like people try to find things wrong with Bama just cause they're Bama and there isn't much to find fault with.

Considering that there are only 32 starting NFL QB's, only 20 or so of whom are "decent", very few programs have produced "a decent NFL QB" in the last 10 years or so.

For the record, our last 3 starting QB's have each spent multiple seasons on NFL rosters. AJ will make that 4 in a row. Nothing special to brag about, but very few college teams can say the same thing.
