...throw for a TD vs Alabama and LSU.
But he can't throw as well as Relf**
Pretty sure both of those were in garbage minutes, but I really hope it's a good omen. I've been more than ready to have a running threat at qb for some time now.
Pretty sure about every team has garbage minutes vs those teams. So what?
PS - Wonder of Saban considered that garbage minutes

Garbage minutes against bama is still tougher than a lot of SEC defenses. Just saying....

Yep. Don't think Saban won't go totally apeshit on his guys that make mistakes in these so called garbage minutes.Quote:

Everybody on here uses the term in some form or fashion, why get so worked up over it? It is very true Bama's 2nd and even 3rd team D can start on pretty much any team they want. Guess really I want to be optimistic but been conditioned to stay skeptical
don't question Dak's supremacy of all things football!!!
He needs to develop his passing. He can't make all the throws accurately, but I think he'll get there because of his work ethic. I think he's probably a season away from being able to be a pocket QB in addition to being a ground and pound guy.
We've averaged 60 garbage minutes per game against those two per year, so what?
Dak is neither a pocket or ground and pound guy. He has the ability to do both which keeps a defense honest.Quote:

If Dak can get his rhythm in the read option, it will open up the field for the receivers. Think Madkin scrambling and finding Kelvin Love on 3rd down.
I've had a similar thought too. I know Dak isn't there yet but with game reps and more extensive work in practice due to more reps, whose to say his completion percentage couldn't surpass Tyler or even become at least as good as Tyler is passing.Quote:

While Tyler is more the silent type.
It could be the offense has more spark with Dak because he is a leader that players respond to. That's a big, big plus that can't be overlooked.
Dak is a ground and pound guy right now because he can't make all the throws. He's a short yardage specialist.Quote:

Supposedly there is a method to that madness. Dak is supposed to be learning to read the DL and the LBs. That's pretty much all he has to do to run short yardage, and it is something that will carry over in running all of the offense.Quote:
