re: Can we now admit there should be an open QB battle under the new regime?

There needs to be an open battle at every OLine position Don't care who the qb is until that is fixed

SPOT ON! You can't run the ball, and you certainly can't throw the ball if the OL is getting blown away at the point of attack.

DE missed 2-3 passes Sat night, no doubt, but he was constantly under pressure and was likely expecting pressure on those misses, and did not set his feet to make good throws. I also think he was worried about making that big mistake, a turnover leading to Bama points. OFF Coord/OL did nothing to allow LF or DE to get into any type of rhythm.
