So by those standards, Fournette's 35 yards vs Bama is unacceptable and his fault.


He set a school rushing record the literal game before with 284 yards. The previous season he ran for 1,953 yards and 22 touchdowns. Alabama loaded the box with 8 defenders the entire night to stop him daring Danny Etling to pass the football. He couldn't do it.

And if you search through the season to find mistakes you can find Guice's fumble and wrong direction vs Florida which obviously cost us the game, right?

Please explain in detail what Guice fumbling once has to do with Etling having awful passing stats. Also feel free to link where I said losing to Florida was Danny's fault.

I'm calling BS on your "I'm not shitting on Etling" statement


Guess I never said this then

His two best throws were to Stevens on the sideline and to Chark on the sideline on similar routes both of which were fantastic

You cherry picked stats. You pointed out an INT in the Ole Miss game and one in the Louisville game. I pointed out a fumble and running error by Guice in the Florida game.

You said getting hit a lot in the Auburn game and/or Bama game was no excuse for a less than elite performance. I pointed out Fournette's rushing vs Bama. Apparently OL is a non-factor.

No one is claiming Etling to be an elite QB. He was in the top half of the SEC in most categories last season and is Top 3 right now in QBR. The season's just starting, he's settling in to a new offense and OC, he has new all but one new starting WR. I think he'll do fine.
