Why do we evaluate players as if their teammates and the opponents aren't there?
Calzada was not as effective in the 3rd for sure, but Alabama adjusted well at the half on both sides of the ball. And it was getting worse as the defense spent more and more time on the field.
But if you knock him for a weak third, you should give him (and the entire rest of the team) credit for stepping up in the fourth. He got the ball back with a chance to win, and led the offense down the field to a win.
He found open receivers and got some nice throws in. The OLine played much better and gave him a chance to succeed, and he stepped up to the challenge. He also scrambled well when needed.
The most important thing I saw was that his teammates on both sides of the ball didn't quit on him or each other, and were rewarded.
