The Alabama defenders after the game called him a 50/50 quarterback at best and gave most of the credit to the receivers who had to make good plays to catch his passes.

getting lucky takes at high level sports takes some skill. It takes skill to put yourself in a spot to get lucky and it takes skill to recognize luck and not letting it get to our head.

That was the #1 problem with Kapernick. He only remembers the lucky plays and thought it was his skill alone that made it happen.
He was never as good as he believed he was, thus he ended a career on a sour note. We’ll see how it goes with these fellows.

Bama’s pass defense shouldn’t even raise their heads,much less utter a word. “Terrible” doesn’t even begin to describe their performance.

Translation: It was the Black receivers not the white quarterback that won the game - OMG, identity politics at its worse

In simple terms, Lawrence could get the ball within ten foot of where receivers were, and they went the rest of the way to get the ball. It’s a tried and tested combination that works..

When you think you are the shit (like Bama does) when you get your ass handed to you the sour grapes come out.

I’m an Alabama fan, but Trevor Lawrence just ate Alabama’s lunch. He shredded the Tide defense. His was a brilliant performance. Maybe the comments about being a 50/50 quarterback refer to his running talents, which are just average. But as a passer? He’s about a 90/10 quarterback. And poise? My God, the kid is a freshman and showed more poise than 80% of the seniors who play quarterback. He has a Heisman and a #1 NFL draft pick in his future.
