Nate, I just watched the replay of the game. Maze had both defenders by a yard or so then hung out just waiting for the ball to get to him. I mean he was wide open. By the time JPW got the ball to him the defenders caught up to him and knocked it incomplete. Maze was literally on an island waiting for the ball to fall from the sky.
Maybe Maze ran too fast (if that's possible), maybe he ran faster that day that JPW expected. I don't know. I just know the ball didn't get to Maze when he was wide open.

That's the pass I was talking about. I'm thinking that JP didn't notice how wide open Maze was until it was too late.

Timing issue combined with not used to hitting Maze with his speed. Those things only get worked out with practice...and a lot of the time it has to be game situations before the two really start to gel.

That is where BC was definitely a better QB. He could hit a receiver in stride 50 yards downfield.
TerryP said:I remember thread after thread about Brodie over-throwing balls that were deep.
Given the choice of the two, when I consider on and off the field situations, I'd pick JPW every time.
But, in a way, that may not be fair b/c BC wouldn't have "gotten away" with the things he did if Saban was coaching him.
That said, he had his choices, and he alone made them.

I think if BC had not run his mouth so much he might have had better blocking in the auburn game.![]()
