I don't have the luxury of watching our team in practice, but am feeling very good about our backup QB and trust that coach Norvell will make the right decisions at the right time.

2-0 is a great place to be. GTG

White is going to be the QB until we are in dire straights...

Does anyone think Saban didn't see that Tua was a better QB than Hurts all year long (Not saying this the case between Adair and White)...But Saban understood that the Hurts was the TEAMS QB and it would likely hurt the TEAM more by pulling him than he would gain by Tua's extra production.

Ridiculous comparison.

Well that is good because he clearly was not trying to compare the situations but rather presenting a hypothetical situation as to why Adair would not replace White even IF he were actually better at this point...

Why even raise the hypo? Also, he did use 2 NFL QBs as an example(?).

Because his point was that IF (hypothetical) Adair was actually better than White that it is still highly unlikely that Norvell would replace Adair with White despite being better because of how it could overall impact the team morale and chemistry. To illustrate his point he used Tua and Hurt as an example. Saban did not realize at half time of the NC game that Tua was better, he had known that for a long time. However, Hurt was able to get them to a NC game and was only until it was pretty clear Hurt had taken them as far as he could and they were on the verge of losing a NC that Saban finally decided to make the switch to Tua.

His point was simple - Unless we were on the verge of disaster (multiple game losing streak or something like that) it is highly unlikely Norvell plays Adair over White even IF Norvell thinks Adair is better.
