How do you stop Jordan Ta’amu? Alabama LB Dylan Moses weighs in

The SEC is loaded with talented quarterbacks this year, but none have done more through two weeks than Ole Miss’s Jordan Ta’amu.
Ta’amu has thrown for 784 yards, seven touchdowns and zero interceptions in his two games so far, but tougher tests await, starting with Alabama this weekend.
On Tuesday, Alabama LB Dylan Moses said the Tide plan on coming after Ta’amu, as they know they need to keep him uncomfortable:
Dylan Moses on affecting Ole Miss QB Jordan Ta'amu:
"If we don’t put any pressure on him, if we don’t get into his face, he could really mark us up. … It could get really bad if we don’t put pressure on him. It’s more of like we're going against an NFL-type quarterback."

This year’s Alabama team is more equipped to handle an offensive shootout than perhaps any other team of the Nick Saban era, but that doesn’t mean the Tide want to do that.
See if the Tide can find a way to limit Ta’amu and the Rebels on Saturday night. The game kicks off at 7 p.m. Eastern time and can be seen on ESPN.
