The quote below is from this article. I read a similar article yesterday where CNS said something along the lines of this: The "game manager" label makes it sound like AJ does not do anything. He does everything. You can't be a good QB unless you are a good "game manager". It is the ultimate compliment.
Though the "game manager" label often comes with a negative connotation, Saban called it the "ultimate compliment" for a quarterback.
"To me, you can't be a good quarterback unless you're a good game manager because you've got the ball in your hands every time and you're making some kind of choice and decision of what to do with it," Saban said. "Whether you hand it off, what play you hand it off on, where you throw it in the passing game, you've got to process a lot of information quickly and make quick decisions."
