What if the others can do the same thing while also adding another dimension that Etling does not do well?


Then that will take the ball out of someone else's hands, that is probably better at running with it.

Well sometimes plays break down and you need you QB to keep the chains moving. To win the NC, you're going to have to have a few of those playmaking downs. Most times Etling tried to do that last year he nearly got his taken off.

He did make a few improvised plays, but made far more bad decisions when trying to adlib. Not a part of his game. And throwaways are nice, but sometimes you need to give those tall WR's a chance to make a play.

Now this i dont get. The more you have account for, the harder you are to defend. A QB who is a run and pass threat, is like two players in one. The defense has to figure out, will he give it to the RB, or pull it and run? Or will he fake to the RB, and throw it? Thats kinda of a no brainer.
