QBs that manage the play
QBs that make plays
QBs that save plays

Book does all 3 and probably won the game for ND because he can

Rex does #1 most of the time.. He makes a read and goes with that play. When that read is wrong or coverage is there, the play is dead.  As he cant get to read 2-3 very well.

Rex has issues with #2, he makes the correct read but often its late and the throw is just enough off the play doesnt work.  we design some runs and he fumbles or cant get to the spot.

Rex has no chance with #3.  he just doesnt have that part of his game to save a play with legs and/or make a throw that isnt preplanned.

Interesting in that Morgan  shows some #3 already but as a FR struggles with the other 2..  time will tell.

All things being equal you swap the QBs yesterday its an even game  Book makes all the plays Rex made and probably saves 4-5 more.   Rex does not make all those big throws he just isnt  that consistent and no way he saves all those plays with his legs..
