McCarron gives Bama what it needs

[pmull]

With a top-gun defense and a solid-and-sometimes-fantastic running game, the Crimson Tide needs somebody at quarterback who can handle things. That’s all. Just handle things.

That’s what McCarron has done well in second-ranked Alabama’s first three games this season, including Saturday’s 41-0 home win over North Texas when he completed 13 unspectacular passes out of 16 unspectacular attempts for 166 unspectacular yards and no interceptions, which wouldn’t have been so unspectacular in Tide coach Nick Saban’s view of his team’s quarterback play.

Alabama doesn’t need to take the risk. McCarron doesn’t have to live in the same football world as Barrett Trotter, his counterpart at Auburn. With opposing offenses running through the Tigers like the Kardashian sisters through my last nerves, Trotter must enter every game thinking he has to put 40 points on the scoreboard to get a win.

You guys need to read the whole article: What will happen when Bama needs more that 'caretaker' from AJ?  He made one or two plays on Sat where he had to improvise, which was encouraging.  But he missed too many open rec's on longish passes.  So far, he not a threat to defenses nor does he instill fear.  Long way for him to go.

As I remember it, that early deep pass to Maze was a drop.  He got both hands on it and should have caught the ball, IMO.  If it was too long, it was only by an inch or two.
