Not unless we change offenses, QBs don't win on teams that run 2/3rds of the time RBs do.

Even though the question in the OP is a little ridiculous, I don't know why people are being so defensive when someone points out something he needs to work on(except for the same negative nellies). Driskel is still a work in progress. The coaches didn't ask him to do much this year, so I wasn't expecting anything spectacular #'s wise. But Driskel did his job of managing the game, and making plays when he needed too. Not sure what else you could want from a 1st year QB with a lackluster OL, and a sub par receiving core.

Next year will be a good gauge of Driskel's potential when we get a few more playmaking WR's and RB, and get some great depth on the 2 deep at OL. Did Driskel do exactly what the coaches needed him to do? Absolutely. But he needs to fine tune a couple things in his game to take that next step.

Having said that, Driskel is THE guy and gives us the best chance to win. His running ability is second to none. Once he develops some chemistry with the WR's and the game slows down even more, WATCH OUT!

I'm not sure why people get upset at the label "game manager". Was he anything else? We had an offense in the 90's...make all the excuses you want. THAT is a fact. You would think if he's so GREAT that the offense would be a little more dynamic...no?

He is Great and will be Incredible when he makes the right decision quicker... The mental portion of his game has opportunity(reads, decisions and execution).
