It's going to be refreshing to see a QB next year who has the ability to escape

the pocket along with the ability to throw the ball down field. I actually think the offense will improve b/c of this innate ability.

As excited as I am, Mett will be sorely missed. He made it look much easier than it is.

Hope he can throw half as good as Mett

We just had the best offense in years.

Brandon Harris will be something to see. I agree with you.

An offense losing a 3000 yard passer, the top back for most of the season, and the two strongest wide out targets. Not strong evidence that the offense will improve.

If the O-line's play improves, we'll see better production.

His ball floats. Doesn't mean he can't be a good college QB...but his passes will be up for grabs.

Zero chance they improve.

We're getting WAY weaker at WR, with almost no real experience left.

RB I'm a little hopeful. Magee looks pretty good, and there's a pretty good chance we'll keep Hilliard too. I am of the opinion we are not getting LF, but this could be a bright spot if we do.

OL likely will digress with Collins likely leaving. We'll see.

There will be growing pains with Jennings. His rushing ability will be refreshing but I am not expecting even half of what we saw out of Mett when it comes to the passing game. Do not delude yourself, that Arky D he burned was terrible and the coverage was busted. It was still good, but almost any QB can make that same throw. There was no read, there was only one option.

I see us as a middle-of-the-pack offense next year, but we should be pretty good a year or two down the road.

Agree with OP.

Great poise by AJ. From what I saw no complaints. I think he's the most talented QB in P&G since Perrilloux.

You people are amazing. Two years ago this board couldn't wait for a pocket passer. You got a guy that threw for 3k years.


We'll be back to running the short side option next year, and y'all will be calling for miles' head

I remember being excited about JJ after Georgia Tech.

Jesus Christ.

Jennings could hope to be half the QB Mett was.

I love Mett, but he would have been sacked on that last drive, the way our OL was pass blocking.

You saw one in the Texas A&M game . Our team stopped him , it will happen to us next season as well. I would like to know why did the o line not block do you happen to have an answer ??

no offense to mett but, I think if he is there for the last drive, he gets sacked twice and we probably don't pull it off.
