Johnny Football not happy with Jimbo

If Johnny thinks it’s a bad decision, it was probably the right thing to do.
No it was an awful playcall. I’m going to side with Johnny Football. Just imagine back to the Croom Era running an out route that’s not beyond the first down and then throwing to that route.
One thing for sure, the bama DB was all over the intended receiver.
One of the guys on a recap show said the WR was supposed to make it look like a fade, then come back for the ball, but the WR didn't go near deep enough into the end zone (he only went two or three yards deep when he should have gone 7 or 8 yards deep and came back to within a yard or two of the goal line).

Seemed like an odd call, especially in light of the fact that Gary called Jimbo a genius play caller all 17n night long.
1. The WR has to sell either the fade or post a little harder to set up the back shoulder.
2. The QB has to anticipate that a little better and the ball should be thrown before/as the WR comes back to the ball.
Not the worst playcall, just not very well executed all the way around.

Your opinion is just as important as Lil Johnny’s.
I saw some stills on the route - I think the play call was fine....just that the QB held it too long and then threw a really bad pass.
King really is a terrible QB.
The play call was fine but Jimbo’s guys aren’t coached well enough to execute it. We scored on A&M last week with a very similar play and we have done it many other times. His team simply isn’t very good and it’s his fault. They do weird dumb stuff all the time. Just go watch film from this year on them, its pathetic.
I hate to say it, but I would’ve slammed Achane off whichever tackle is your strongest. He’s your best player on the entire team. Get him behind your best OLineman and see if he can get two yards.
They were at what, the two? the actual pass was to the one, not even in the endzone.
Regardless, it was fubab! Poor! Terrible.

If the QB throws to the right spot at the right time, it’s probably an easy TD. But he didn’t do either of those things. So not a good play call unless they’ve practiced and completed it a whole bunch of times in practice.
Ole Nick didn't mention the obvious PI by his DB.
Is it a case of a bad route more than a bad throw? The WR didn't go deep enough in the end zone.
It's both. WR #1 ran to contact but didn't get separation. Then King the QB threw the ball at about the 2. Timing was off bc they haven't practiced that enough together.
In hearing the coaches talk about it post game, that was the correct route....he was to show fade and break off with a short dig. The QB was late with the ball which brought the receiver back to him more. Just bad timing and a terrible throw.
Also didn’t help he’s getting raped by the corner.
In life, yes, absolutely go with anti-Johnny being the right decision, but maybe not so much on the football field.
If only Mike Evans was with him to bail out his bad life decisions the way he bailed him out on the football field.
Well he should know, because if anyones made bad decisions concerning football its him
Bad play call or bad route or throw? There was a window where he was open in the endzone.
