"We are the Fury"
Mariota is an overrated gimmick QB with limited accuracy and anticipation throwing from the pocket. Proof:

Marcus Mariota, QB: -2.0
Breakdown: The Heisman Trophy favorite saw plenty of support for his performance, given that he left the field throwing for two touchdowns and rushing for three more. That doesn’t tell the whole story, however, and, in reality, he should have been picked off several times. There were overthrows, late throws into coverage and careless penalties in a performance that never clicked like his touchdown total suggests.
Signature Stat: On throws 20 or more yards downfield, Mariota completed just three of the 10 he attempted.
This just in, boys:
CBS Sports' Dane Brugler notes that Oregon redshirt junior QB Marcus Mariota still "needs to improve his ball placement down the field."
"He needs to improve his ball placement down the field, especially when he can operate with a clean pocket, and doesn't always see all 11 defenders," Brugler writes. The Heisman hopeful has thrown for 3,783 yards with a 38/2 TD/INT ratio and leads the nation in passing efficiency at 186.33. On the ground, Mariota has rushed 117 times for 669 yards and 14 touchdowns. Brugler notes that Mariota showed far more good than bad against Arizona and believes he's "locked up the Heisman Trophy with his talented arm and athletic lower body.
