I have a question for people that are more knowledgeable on qb play.

It seems that the backup qb style of play changes once they are deemed a starter. I remember when Morgan was initially put in when the starter was injured he would roll out of the pocket and make throws on the run. Once he started the Louisville game it seemed he stopped rolling out and continued to try to throw from the pocket. Until he got knocked out.
It seems to be the same situation with CDRW. In the prior games he would roll out and throw on the run. Today it seemed like he wanted to stay in the pocket. Even when he scrambled a couple times he ran back into a collapsing pocket.
I could be wrong about my observations. However if correct. Is this more that the staff wants them to stay in the pocket and pass or that defenses are preventing the qb from rolling out?
Just seems keeping them in the pocket is limiting their effectiveness and play making when the pocket collapses.
Curious if anyone made the same observations or has a thought on the subject.
