Look Milroe is not a QB, people will stand up for him because of the kind of man he is, but he is no QB, he was never coming out of games this year and here's why, it is known ( people on here smarter than me know this I'm sure) that the university and Milroe/ Arnold last year struck a million dollar deal on this lank stuff, if he's not on the field it's worthless, also Greg Byrne could not push Saban around so he retires and Byrne hires CKD who is a yes man! If Milroe comes back, next year will be worse I'm done till spring Tidefans RTR
If nilroe decides to play at Bama next year, I will be a Fighting Bazza until he is gone!!!!!!
Predicted 8-4 regular season, got 9-3. Finished 9-4 on the year. We lost games we shouldn't have; we won games we shouldn't have. It was a transition year, and it looked like it on the field. Overall, it was a good year to try out being apathetic to college football
In all fairness, we cannot know how good or bad Sheridan is when our QB is an absolute clown show.
The naysayers were right. Again.
What you saw on that last series is the thing @TIDE-HSV stated in the 2nd half thread. Milroe is so poor fundamentally that, in pressure situations, he simply reverts to back to high school play. He was technically bad coming out of high school as a QB. He was simply better athletically than “the other guysâ€Â.
Yeah BoB did Bryce no favors in his time as OC/QB coach at Alabama. But there was one thing he was right about. Milroe is not a QB.
The best thing we have going for us is it is a weak QB class for the NFL draft this year. And there will be several needing a QB. Hopefully some GM thinks JM is “fixable†and rolls the dice. Above all, get an agent in JM’s ear telling him “you need to goâ€Â.

OL play was spotty at best. But almost every play Bernard was open and JM can't see that???
Dude has vision problems. Not the kind that can be fixed with glasses either.
I’m honestly confused as to why Simpson didn’t at least get a chance at some point during any of the UT, Oklahoma, USC, or especially the Michigan games. I understand the locker room politics played a role but at some point the coach has to do something if that was the determining factor…because quite frankly in 3 of the games we lost could probably have been just based on talent with competent qb play and a few back ups (filling in for anyone that chose lank over the team with milroe on the bench)…but we continued to let that one player handcuff the offense/team. Is Simpson just that bad? Was it poor decision making by the staff? Or was it the Lank/locker room politics? I just find it hard to believe that there wasn’t a better option over Milroe. But to be fair the way the line blocked at times it appears that they may have tanked against lank….just a frustrating season overall with the offense.
He has quarterbacks not named Milroe but flatly refused to play them. I've had your sentiment all year but this bowl game has really soured me on Deboer!!!
Let's see:
Defense came to play today. In reality, only gave up 3 points on that one Michigan drive. Every other Michigan score was set up by the one 4th down fail, and 3 Milroe turnovers. The defense deserved much better.
Offense was a train wreck because they were being run by a totally drunk engineer. Why anyone thinks he's a good QB is way beyond my understanding. I would dare call him the worst starting QB at BAMA in a very very long time.
Coaching was a complete failure this year, mainly because they wouldn't fix the most obvious problem. I just can't believe that Ty Simpson would have been worse than what we have seen most of the year.
And the worst thing is, the problem was at it's worst in games where we should have easily won - but lost. Hope the problem will soon be gone.

Can guarantee you he's NOT thinking, "Man, if only I would've hired Norvell instead."
I have a feeling with Deboer we will always be an average team now.
Because the people who pay the NIL money want a return on their investment. Can’t do that sitting on the sideline.
Don’t worry about pressure in his face, he won’t step up anyway. Edge pressure kills JALEN, bring the house off the edge. On the read option, always play the QB. He will keep it 98% of the time. There, that simple. Jalen defensed.
They didn’t take down Alabama; they took down Milroe. Any other QB we’ve had over the last 20 years wins that game easily. Dude literally gave them 16 points.

Absolutely!
UM had been licking their chops as soon as they learned their bowl opponent.
UM knew how to defend Milroe, they did it in January. They simply refused to allow Milroe to beat them with his legs. Bama receivers were not able to get the kind of separation Milroe needs. Bama offensive line was no match for UM’s defensive line.
Bama’s defense played lights out.
Milroe and the offense just did not have an answer.

All season, I had some tell me, no actually they SWORE to me "the dynasty is NOT dead!". The first 4 loss season since 2007 says otherwise. Oh, and it's officially the end of the streak of 10 plus win seasons that Saban had going since 2008. And yes, of course, let's not forget, Saban went 7-6 and lost to Louisiana-Monroe in his first season, just in case anybody forgot. Well, call me cynical, but I'm not seeing Deboer rattle off 6 national championships, 9 SEC championships, 4 Heisman winners and 16 consecutive seasons of 10 plus wins
Higher chance they fire him at the end of next season then CKD getting to a 10 win season here ...
Michigan's OL didn't play perfectly against us a year ago, but McCarthy threw them out of our pressures. He made us pay. DLs (especially as good as UM, OU, Tenn, SoCar) will always have an advantage over even the best OLs. Expecting the OL to be perfect while not expecting Milroe to be merely competent is hypocritical. He can do multiple things about the pressure...throw to the check down, step up in the pocket, throw it out of bounds. but he does NONE of that
