Jalen Milroe appreciation thread

[crimsonaudio]

Milroe currently has the second-highest QB rating in CFB:

Not surprised. Even the one interception wasn't his fault, an NFL TE catches that pass

Yup. FWIW PFF had him at zero turnover worthy plays.

No question. Milroe has put in the work, and improved in ways that I did not imagine possible. He is actually processing much faster now. That is where it starts, and why he is improving.

Roll Tide, Jalen. Roll Tide.

To your point about processing faster, this last game was his fastest time to throw of his career. And I don't think it's particularly close.

Jaxson Dart already has over 1800 yards? Good God

yeah, he lit up Furman, MTSU, Wake Forrest, and Georgia Southern

As CKD stated in his post game comments, over the last few weeks Milroe has turned the corner in some areas of weakness that now make him hands down the most dangerous QB in the country and it's not even close.

You could hear it in Kirbys post-game comments, they had no answer for him. You blitz him and don't get to him, he gawn! You sit back in coverage and he can complete passes on you all day. Or, stay back in coverage and he takes off on you. 🤷‍♂️

When you play high schools for the first three games you can post ungodly numbers.

 

[tusks_n_raider]

Lots of good stuff here!!! The regular season rate should be 3x though, not 4x…so ONLY 54 TDs, etc…
Only…🤣

Haha yes you are right.

Have no idea why I multipled by 4 instead of 3…lol

I updated the numbers with correct math 😅

 

[Ledsteplin]

I'm thankful that he has finally proven that he can complete intermediate passes over the middle for 15+ yards against a quality defense! 🙃🙃

Maybe we can put that baby to rest!

He could have since day one against W Kentucky. They were saving it for Kirby.

 

[AlexanderFan]

He’s definitely put together some quality football lately.

Loved seeing the improvement, hope it continues and becomes consistent.

With his leadership and charisma this next level of production on the field will surely make him one of the most popular college football players this year.

All I know is that Coach Saban had him starting. CKD came in and has him starting. He has been the first player to workouts over the Summer the past couple of years. The Team loves him. Now, looks like kid is starting to shine. Really, really happy for him.

 

[Ledsteplin]

He's been Phenomenal and especially the last 2 games vs Wisc and UGA.

His full stats through 4 games are:

62 of 85 (72.9%) for 964 Yards Passing (11.3 YPA) and 10 TD's and 1 INT (Fluke ricochet)

52 Carries for 273 yards (5.2 YPC) and 8 TD's

1,237 Total Yards and 18 Total TD's

He's on pace for 3,700 Yards and 54 TD's for just the regular season!!

Plus it looks like he just keeps getting better every game this season which is a compliment to both his hard work and coachability as well as the fact he now finally has access to great Offensive minds.

The plays he was making in the intermediate and short game vs UGA were just Beautiful.

If that continues to develop in addition to his already great Deep Ball game then he will become almost impossible to defend.

Every DC on our schedule has to be scared to death of what they saw on Saturday.

G'On Jalen!!!

And it really helps the OL is playing on a high level. And no more center issues, regardless of what they were. Now I need to go knock on some wood.

 

[Redwood Forrest]

I appreciate that he takes the opportunity in every game interview to give a big ROLL TIDE.

I dont even blame dippre. It was a good.hit on the ball by the defender. Maybe cj should have secured it better before he turned but it was just a great defensive play all around..

I've been a vocal critic of this Milroe kid. Against Georgia he showed he can hit the short over the middle pass to the TE....but what I enjoyed the most, !!!!he started hitting the hot read over the blitz!!!!

So, one game he looked like he had improved his read on the DE on the zone read.....and vs UGA he not only showed improvement on the check down and the short pass to the TE....!!!!he started hitting the hot read over the blitz!!!!

If he can continue to improve on those things....plus have Ryan Williams....plus get Law back....plus getting those RB's going.....plus having DeBoer and Sheridan calling the play......we've got something here folks.

At this pace....if he can just maintain....he wins the Heisman, with Cam Ward finishing 2nd.....and Williams in the top 5.

Being that they played Furman and scored 70 and then played MTSU and scored 52....yes, yes he does.

Travis Hunter will be a media darling for the Heisman. That campaign has already started.

 

[BamaFossil]

I greatly appreciate Milroe! Skilled, focused, good with the interviews. I wish him all the best.

 

[B1GTide]

He deserves the hype.

 

[Cruloc]

Travis Hunter will be a media darling for the Heisman. That campaign has already started.

He will be certainly. However, if Milroe continues to get multiple games with multiple TDs passing and rushing....he's gonna be tough to beat.

Hunter...a phenomenal player....he plays almost every snap Colorado has every game on both sides of the ball. I hope he can stay healthy.

I could see the list being some mix of Milroe, Hunter, Ward, maybe Williams.

And; one of the most "valuable" $$$
