AJ is the MVP on offense but Christon Jones has stepped more than I would have ever thought. Getting close to being the go to guy. He is there every game in some fashion.

Defensive MVP CJ. Mr. Robinson has impressed me the most. Wow! I have to say thanks to Coach for coaching the DBs and safeties and for the talent back there to. Very appreciative of Vinnie to Geno. They are part of the success.

Christion Jones.

Honorable mention: Chris Black. He's been really exciting to watch the few times he's had a chance to play. I would love to see more throws go his way.

I would say A'Shawn and Chad Lindsey. I'm looking for a DB to step up and really impress me this weekend against LSU.

Actually, I looking forward to the ENTIRE team impressing me this week. OL, WR's, RB's, QB, DL, LB's, DB's, and ALL Special Team players.

Chad Lindsey stepped in when needed and did a Great job.

A difficult choice for a team with so many impressive players - by chosing one, we have to leave so many great ones out. But to the question, I have to go with Christion Jones. He's done some of everything so far this season. A game-changer.

30 days until SECCG
60 days until BCSNCG
RTR!!!

Many are doing well...but if I just pick one then it has to be AJ.

It has to be AJ, because, without him, we wouldn't be where we are. If it's to be which one has made the biggest strides, it would have to be Christion, just as Cooper was the most impressive in that department last year...

When I first saw the thread title, I knew my pick was Landon Collins. He's done everything asked of him this year - been a beast on special teams, changed positions when teammates are suspended/injured, intercepted a pass for a TD and is one of the best at open-field tackles that I've seen. I think about his Mama's actions during his announcement every time they call his name over the PA system...and it makes me smile. I love our players and enjoy watching them play with intensity and enthusiasm. Can't wait to yell for them this weekend! ROLL TIDE!!

FWIW, Steele believes this team is better than last year's...

When this team is playing their best ball, I agree 100% with him, this is the best team Coach Saban has produced u to this point..And the last two game they've been clicking on all cylinders..

Great thread TideMan...

If I had to choose one, Christion.

If I could choose one for each, then CJ on defence and Landon Collins special teams...

But as others here have said, there is so much praise to go around...

Thanks Brother & you made some great picks..It's hard mot to pick Landon & CJ..

I got to go with Landon Collins and Kevin Norwood. Both of them are special.

Iii ill go with AJ.Ive never seen him play a bad game.Hes as steady as they come.

Re: Up To This Point Of The Season..Which Crimson Tide Player Has Impressed You The M

I think it is clearly C.J. Mosley. He is our MVP in my book, but we have so many good players who could win this debate.

No one has mentioned Steen . He is the glue that holds our line together and you rarely hear his named called because he rarely makes a mistake !

He was great last year, just overshadowed by the glamour all around him--he's only gotten better this year. Seems to never miss an assignment. I love Robinson too on the other side of the ball!

WCS Dad · Nov 8, 2013

How about Kenyon Drake? He went from mop up duty as the 3rd team back to a major component of the offense. Still needs to improve on ball security, but really making a big contribution. Really happy with his success.

That's a great pick & is hard not to pick him, dude has grown up before our very eye's this year & I'm as proud of what he's accomplished this year, as any of our Players..His NFL potential is off the charts & he's going to be a very rich man when he leaves Bama for the NFL..

Easy question... Hard Answer.

Norwood, Collins, Robinson, Lindsay, AJ. Mosley...

Put their names in a hat and draw one... I could justify any choice.
BTW... I could name several more that should go in the hat for the drawing. :BigA:

B1GTide · Nov 9, 2013

AJ, and it is not even close. But I really like all of those xJ players (AJ, OJ, TJ, CJ).

Bluegrasstide · Nov 9, 2013

A.J. is definitely my MVP. Drake has had a breakout year.

With that said, I think that Landon Collins has impressed me the most. I guess it is because I had no baseline of expectations for him. He has made plays on special teams and stepped up into big shoes on defense when Vinnie got hurt. The kid is a ball hawk and, like Vinnie, you can just tell that he enjoys every single down he plays. Of course all players love to play in the SEC, but ever now and again kids come along that just have a different gear [Vinnie, Landon, McClain, Pollack (UGA)].

On defense: Sunseri before he went down. He was just getting better and better. CJ I'm not too surprised about.
On offense: AJ/Norwood ... not too far behind... Drake and the OL. For Cooper's sake, I think we forgot how good DeAndrew White was.

BamaBuc · Nov 9, 2013

Didn't bother to read all 7 pages of pick's...

Although it wouldn't matter to me, I have a steel trap when it comes to this question!
The guy who held all of it together when most all were beginning to throw up ? marks.

:biga: IT HAS TO BE AJ :biga:.....
