yup.. you watch these top teams and they all have QBs that make plays outside of the play call.  some QBs take off, some throw on the run.  Its lost in all the complaints about play calling,  but better teams get25-50% of their offense outside of the real play and we get just a but more than zero..

For all the talent Clem/ND/OSU have plays break down every drive that the QB saves..  We forget that Tommy saved a few before he got hurt, but QBs like Book save plays that we never see saved here since Eric left..

Funny that those who complaing about when the offense went down hill gloss over how much #3 is required...

Also crazy he got hurt so many times doing it and all these other top QBs do it as much or more and few have really gotten hurt..  just bad luck.

look at the Pros.  Murray/Allen/Wilson/Jackson/rodgers  almost all the top guys have that #3.   few like Brady/Peyton did so well without it..

But you need at least 2 of the 3 to succeed in todays game I think..  especially on teams with avg Olines.

go thru the top 25 and see how their QB play is.  when you struggle to find a guy who can just manage a game  no play calling can over come that on top of bad oline play.
