For me to feel good about White as our starter 2 things have to happen:

He has to show he can take the punishment from sacks and hits as our QB. His injury never really left him late in the season.

second, he has to show he can throw TDs. Yes his percentage was pretty good passing, and he had some high passing yardage games, but only 1 TD? and it was in OT i think.
He has to show he can stretch the field and have big plays in the passing game, or teams will simply move safties up..because he cant be accurate deep...

ThirdLawson agrees with all of this.

This is pretty much the key for any QB under Gus. If we can keep the safeties back with the deep threat we will be successful, if not we will struggle against teams with good run defenses. Having a legit deep threat is actually far more important for Gus's schemes than having a dual threat QB.

Well, the coaches have to call the pass play inside the redzone instead of the crap they called this year. How many times did we get into an offensive rhythm and drive the ball to the 10 yd line only to call the most ridiculous plays of the game?

Receivers didn't do White many favors this year. Watch the drops against arKansas.
