I'm not saying Sage is leading anyone to a Super Bowl, but he just needs to manage the game and they can rely on their running game and defense.
The last thing you want is Sage Rosenfels managing a game for you. He is a turnover machine, but he offsets some of it by making plays and moving the ball up and down the field. If you ask him to be a game manager you handcuff the things he does well, while still probably not solving what his real problem is (forcing plays when the play breaks down to the instinct level).
