Alabama QBs are the new Ohio State QBs

[TN05]

Mac Jones, Tua, Bryce, Jalen Hurts... all of them looking like flops. Mac is terrible, Bryce looked like the worst QB in the league, and Tua has one of the best amounts of talent in the league behind him and can't get anywhere in the playoffs.
 

We got fleeced by a school that repeatedly pumps out limited prospects

QBs coming from dominant programs warrant a lot of extra scrutiny. They're enjoying a huge advantage that they won't have at the next level. Namely that their surrounding talent won't be head and shoulders better than the opposing team's week in and week out.

We see how well Trey Lance and Wentz were prepared  lighting up GameStop cashiers db’s in FCS

Do you not even see a little irony in that this exact same argument was being made of why CJ Stroud supposedly wasn’t going to work out in the pros?

Nope. He required extra scrutiny too. We just got it wrong like we have virtually every key decision during the Tepper era.

Op is having a mental break down lol

System QBs that can't carry poo. Will look OK in a perfect situation but lean to hard on them and they snap. Don't care about the school, it's all in their evaluations if you don't have blinders on. You can win with them but if you get a chance upgrade and never look back.

I wouldn't say Tua and Hurts are flops.  Future hall of famers, no.  But not flops.  

Fwiw, I don't think any Ohio State qb has ever won a superbowl.  Three bama qb's have won a super bowl, Ken the Snake Stabler, Bart Starr, and Joe Namath.  Its been a while since it happened.  

It certainly is easier to succeed and look great at schools like Alabama and Ohio State.  So maybe their college results should be taken with a grain of salt.

Tua and Hurst aren’t flops. That’s just a silly statement

Draft the player not the school. LSU had a loaded team around Burrow. Stroud’s team was loaded as well.

Lol

 

Jalen Hurts was literally in the SB going toe to toe with Mahomes.

 

Let's settle down.

They've always had the same reputation

The loaded teams just make it a much harder evaluation IMO. You gotta try to envision what this guy would look like if the talent surrounding him wasn't hands down better than the opposition week in and week out and that's tough.

It comes down to consistency with Hurts. Seems like every time I watch him he either looks like an MVP or a guy who needs to be benched and nothing in between.
