    I understand this narrative. After all, it's repeated consistently in the media. There is one thing I'd recommend taking a cautious approach when considering Hurt's passing...he hasn't had to this season. I've seen it mentioned here that he can't throw over 15 yards when over 30% of his completions this season have been over 15 yards.

    I'm certainly not suggesting he has an all world arm when it comes to throwing the ball. I am suggesting a pause.

    Our D could have breakdowns, especially considering the strength of your run game. But you’re right, he doesn’t have an all-world arm; I’m hoping we can do similar to Lamar Jackson. But y’all got a line that goes for ages and athletes all over the field. It’ll be a challenge.

    Call me insane but I woke up today with a ‘when pigs fly’ Tigers shock ‘em ‘93? vibe.

    I agree @TerryP I don’t think he is horrible at throwing I was just wondering how really dominant you guys would be with an arm back there. A guy who could make all the throws would really open up that pro style offense, paired with a great D it would be a tough week for most and it looks like Nick is moving in that direction. I think he knew he had to transition to a more open offense but I think he is old school and more comfortable with the pro style. It allows him to stay close to the run when it’s needed, and he brought in a Coordinator who can do that.

    With that said I hope we beat the brakes off you guys!!!

    One of the nurse anesthetist I work with is a Bama grad. He was telling me earlier this week that Hurts and Etling have similar numbers. I am hopeful for a win but am more hopeful that there are no injuries
