Cousin of Armchair QB.
Based on what Saban said yesterday in his presser I'm thinking we do see another shift with Simpson getting the start and likely Milroe as his backup.
Buchner pulled a Barnett: looked good and consistent in practices and when the lights came on his went off. His feet made Happy Meal's jealous.
You want to give Dalcourt a shot? Don't know how strong his arm is, but let him take a number. He'll be up after Holstein.Are those the only choices?
Honestly, I’d like to see a shift on the offense of line, it’s hard to throw the ball down the field you’re being chased

Needs to be a two QB system between Ty and Milroe. Play whichever QB is best suited for the situation and have designed plays to move the pocket. Why is Alabama the only program right now that does nothing to alleviate pressure from the rush? Why do the TEs not check the DEs? No rolls outs? No RBs to the flat? Just line up and drop back and get sacked. It's maddening.
JMO…the OC is less than.

It didn't help that Booker didn't play. It doesn't help having a left tackle who is a true freshman. It doesn't help having a center that hasn't been 100% this fall.

If the quarterback isn't getting into a rhythm how can the play caller?
That said I still believe the best set for this offense is the single back, two tight end approach. I'd like to see more.
I refer to all of the coaching before the game as well, but it’s JMO.

We saw some of that coaching in the second half: Simpson, after starting 0-4 and continually getting beaten up did a good job holding his composure together. No one likes going into game four still trying to get a feel for how the team is headed: been there before.

He did. He is a big guy. Some help from receivers n oline. He could be really good

Left tackle needs to move to guard.. m Brooker needs to be a tackle.

We need the O-line to get better, like you said on here, Booker being out hurt, hopefully he's back Saturday to play. With the QB situation still in doubt, we need our identity to be a run first, downhill offense. That will help whoever the QB is significantly. There's no reason we can't either, we have the talent, and the depth to do it. This has to be the week where the problems get addressed, and solved.... cannot have another performance like yesterday against Ole Miss. Defense played really well yesterday (aside from a few missed tackles, and busted plays while pass rushing), if it wasn't for them getting stops, we likely would've lost yesterday. I'm glad we didn't start SEC play yesterday, because we would've almost certainly lost the game playing like that.

He probably needs to shed off a few more pounds to gain a bit more quickness on his feet. With his size, he wouldn't lose much(if any) muscle mass at all.

I liked Simpson for the most part.
