    Where does Jake Coker stack up among Alabama’s best single-season passing leaders — and what does that list say about the evolution of Crimson Tide football? On this episode of Last Call, the guys break down Alabama’s all-time single-season passing yard leaders, including Bryce Young, Mac Jones, Tua Tagovailoa, Ty Simpson, Blake Sims, AJ McCarron, Greg McElroy, and Jake Coker. The conversation turns into a bigger look at the Nick Saban era, Alabama’s championship standard, and why even a two-loss season felt like a disappointment under Saban.
