There was a play that made it very clear to me he was not the answer. Yes, he was under pressure a lot of the game, but there was a particular third down where he was not under pressure and Braden Smith blocked his man very well. Ehlinger panicked, rolled to his left, ran himself into pressure, and threw an incomplete pass. It was an entirely unforced error where a smart QB would have either stood tall in the pocket or rolled right and given himself a better chance of making a play.
