I spent the second half of the game verifying it. Other than busted plays it was consistent.

Yep. Milroe mechanics are awful. He can't read plays or pass protection. This dude has to come back to college ball. I don't see how any NFL team drafts him.

He needs to transfer then. Alabama fans will turn on DeBoer if #4 remains in the program.

I think this is kind of cherry picked. I've seen people accuse him of this even last year, and sometimes the correlation is there and sometimes it isn't. He just has trash footwork and isn't a detail oriented player, so the way he set his feet up was never intentional. I mean sometimes he has his feet offset the wrong way to start a dropback.

Agreed.
Poor mechanics + failure to read the field = recipe for disaster.

I would add "not very smart" to the recipe for disaster.

He's been in college for 4 years. He isn't going to get drastically better in that category with another year in college, particularly with the big man on campus mindset. The QB class this year is also as bad as it's been in 20 years. He needs to go to the draft. He'll get picked in the third or fourth round at worst and will get the luxury of being a backup and learning how to play football full time without the feeling that he's the main character on the team. In other words, how he should've handled his last two years at Alabama. Focusing on football instead of merchandise sales. There isn't an ad market for backup quarterbacks in the NFL.
I think the odds are against him ever becoming a decent NFL QB, but there is a possible reality that he does become a better NFL player than college player. the Jordan Love route is the best case scenario for him.

It was almost 100% against UM.
IMO when he gets flustered it’s exaggerated but it was laughably accurate against Michigan in predicting play calls.

I agree with you that it's a weak draft class. I just don't know how anyone drafts this kid. With that being said; Colts drafted Richardson

He’s very smart! He’s a millionaire off of a sport he can’t play.

Smart off the field. Low Football IQ for a QB?

Milroe will probably flame out of the NFL in 2-3 years unless he changes to tight end or something

Holy shite. I honestly never noticed that.
Well, if anyone would pick up on that, Michigan would. Wonder how many other schools' coaches were calling each other to clue them in.

Honestly, if we are tipping plays. It makes everyone look awful especially the OL.
I'm not sure we can accurately give anyone a solid grade on the offense.

He's an amazing athlete. There has to be some position he can play.

Look at this..... He left so many yards on the board even if he checked down to Jam.

Every time I watch Bernard play I like him more.
He's such a baller at this level.

The OL was really bad and we don't even attempt to hit receivers in stride on routes between the numbers, likely out of fear of the ball sailing and being an easy INT.

Outfielder. He would legitimately be fantastic on defense- has the speed and strong arm. If he can hit a ball, he'd be a star in baseball really
