No, of course not.

But if he's just playing so poorly, you should still try and win the game - the way you win games is to do thing to help your QB.  If he can't do what you want him to do - then adapt.  

Zach has to be the QB right now, Mike White isn't available.  If you want to win - you have to put your system on the shelf for now.

Fair. Play to his strengths, make the game easier for him.

i am not sure that Mike White is the better option with the OL playing the way they are...even though ive said that he is the better QB right now previously.

The injury to Q really couldn’t have come at a much worse time. 
 

Our D is predicated on getting pressure with the 4 d-linemen and maximizing coverage. 
 

Q was a big part of that constantly drawing double teams. 
 

Without the need to double someone, the oline’s job is so much easier. 
 

Add the fact that the Lions oline is one of the best in the league…it’s a recipe for trouble.  

They do have a few guys that should be able to do it on their own. Lawson is a guy who is like to step up with Q out

Jimmy Garoppolo, Kirk Cousins, and Peyton Manning: famously mobile.

Jimmy and Kirk definitely are definitely mobile enough to rollout.  Especially since they are still playing in that system and succeeding, lol.  You don’t need Vick, you need “not Tom Brady” levels of mobility.

The one year Manning played in the Shanahan system it was his retirement season, the offense clearly struggled because of that limitation, and they heavily relied on the run game and defense.

Man, I'm old, but didn't Joe Montana roll out a lot?

Thanks for this ... I think it's just a couple of us here that really believe it.

Everyone believes it. We just don’t think a good OL will transform BYU into a non-terrible QB.

D certainly isn't playing great, but that's 2 huge stops now.

They are out their best DL player DPOY,  their backfield captain and their 4th DB....they're not going to pitch a no yards shut out.  lol  Hold them to FG's and you can win this game, with some timely scoring.

This is categorically false. The “Shanahan system” consistently gets the ball out in 2.5 or less. Mobility is a bonus.
