Smart Play from the Quarterback

I’ve written about this before but it deserves repeating. Jameis Winston has all of the physical tools to be an elite franchise quarterback. The biggest problem he has is between his ears. His decision-making, at times, leaves a lot to be desired. He sometimes becomes hesitant when deciding whether to run or throw. He also still throws bad interceptions.

Therefore, on Sunday I want to see Winston play a smart game. Mistake free would be a good place to start. If he could finish the game with no interceptions he would end the season on a high note. It would put the momentum back in the right direction to set up a big 2017 for the young signal caller.
