This has been a weird college football season for obvious reasons, but the joyous aspect for Alabama fans has been the development and maturation of Mac Jones at quarterback.
Many people expected for him to return the Crimson Tide’s offense to the days of Greg McElroy and AJ McCarron.
Both signal callers were national champions, but they were not known for taking shots downfield. McElroy and McCarron were viewed as ‘game managers.’ The term brings a lot of negativity to the conversation, despite its meaning of the quarterback being able to handle situations and keep its team ahead of the curve.
