Re: the example you gave is a good one

On that first drive Jared ran to his right and totally lost site of Gurley who was to his left and wide open.

So a couple of things

1) you are right just throw the ball away but instead he just kind of wandered and ran into the defender awkwardly (supporting your take that sometimes he just looks awkward)
2) I think Jared is a much better athlete than you give him credit for but in that situation a more athletic qb could have run for that first down easily
3) Just the lack of awareness and that he floated to his right rather than to his left to get something off to Gurley in the flat

I’m hopeful that he can do 1 or 3 and its second nature and doesn’t have to be reminded ... we will see
