Do you even remember JaMarcus? He was not fast & did not like to run, but even he could make an intelligent play & tuck it for some positive yards.

He seemed to have a bit more meat on his bones and the ability to absorb some hits

I think Mett might be a little weak to be looking to drop the shoulder down field

OP makes a good point. A one yard gain is better than a throw away. The penalty against tamu he could have picked up 5-6 yards and slid. Obviously he doesn't need to try to scramble from the pocket, but when he's already out like on that play it would be better for him to tuck it and pick up what he can. I was screaming at the tv on that play

I am not talking about Mett being a running qb. He is a POCKET passer.

What I am wondering is that is Mett that average or he is not being coached up. And one of the observations that I see is something simple like, if you get flushed & get some yards before going out of bounds, do it. However, he get out going towards the sidelines, & just chunks it like he is so "scared" to make a mistake.
