And in the end, you'd gladly trade Manning for McCarron if AJ had done at UT what he's doing at Alabama. | Wait, wait...so you think Bama's recent run of dominance is because of AJ McCarron?!?!    
I think you're ignoring or forgetting how much easier a qb's job becomes when he is supported by a stellar run game and defense.
I'm not saying McCarron is a scrub. I actually think he's much better than most people on here do (also better than Croyle and McElroy), but he could be replaced by MANY qb's currently in college, and Bama would have won just as many NC's as they have with him. He is pretty far down on the list of reasons they won.

All he did was ride a stellar defense and stellar running game without screwing the pooch.
I wasn't responding to the point your entire post was making. I was responding to that one sentence. Now go ahead and backtrack and claim you meant something else.
