The Starter
scrambling for a first down as I recall. No lead is safe with our defense and Griffin had to make numerous scrambles, runs or whatever to secure first downs. Those situations cause me more concern than anything.
Scrambles or designed runs? While he doesn't need to take off constantly, getting him outside the pocket would be good for him. How about some rollouts for a change, or a naked boot leg on occasion? It doesn't all have to be about option runs. Don't forget a big part of the picture is him being smarter with his runs.
But with you I agree. No reason at all Jay needs to be discussing this. He's really speaking in generalities and all it does is spark this kind of debate. Griffin will never be a Manning or Brady type pocket passer. That just isn't happening IMO. That may be all Jay is alluding too. At the end of the day you have to use the strengths he posseses, particularly if he can't move his pocket passing weakness to a strength, which I have doubts about.
