re: Do you have complete trust in Lee to hang in the pocket strong and deliver

Obv its and advtg to us and for them too I suppose to throw the ball when you want to, instead of when you have to.

I just dont want to see us run the ball against 7-8 on first and second down for a whole half before we change.
Thats what we did vs tenn in the first half.

And UK. I think the 1st down stats in the 1st half were close to 11 attempts for 17 yards. Not exactly sure, but it was bad.

Good thing is, we have a VERY capable backup that can come in. Maybe two.

No.....we don't.

Yes, we do.

If we have to rely solely on the backup, Saban will decimate that offense. It's gonna take everybody.

Just like Saban did last year?

Jefferson against Alabama 2010
10 completions on 13 attempts (77%) for 141 yards (10.8 ypa) with 1 TD and 0 Int
7 carries for 27 yards (3.9 ypc)

WTF has Mccarron proved?

Well, they have played Penn St. and that hellacious defense.

I've been saying this for about 2 weeks. He hasn't been pressured AT ALL this year....NOTHING. I've watched their games. I'm sure Gumps will try to justify his protection somehow.....

But what happens when he does come under pressure? What happens when he makes a small mistake vs. LSU's DB's?

Again, this defense is WAY too fast for the screen to work time and time again. Richardson is McCarron's safety valve every time.

I anxious to see what McCarron does when he panics.....and he will panic Saturday. It takes Mingo a half a second to get into the backfield.

You people should realize this isnt last year.

What's the difference?

Experience? Jefferson and Lee have more experience as well.

Just because Bama's defense has gained that valuable experience, doesn't mean every one else didn't.

I trust Miles and the coaches........

While I don't think Lee is very good when pressure crowds him, he's pretty exceptional at picking up and throwing behind the blitz. It's how he roasted UF last year.

funny enough, the clown you responded to said that last year didn't matter, remember?

How it didn't matter what the stats were last year because we have a new QB coach and offense now so things are different, remember?

now all of a sudden last year is relevant. It is gotten truly pathetic.

While I don't think Lee is very good when pressure crowds him,

But he's not terrible.

Which is more than we can say for McCarron. Because we don't know.

McCarron was under 50% vs. Florida's trash DL.

I believe Saban will pressure Lee all night long to rattle him

So you think we won't throw underneath the safeties when the LBs come with pressure ? ODB/Shep will light up those 250lb+ LBs in coverage. Or, do you think our OL can't block a 3 man front ?
