A quarterback in NFL football who is the best of the worst, or maybe the worst of the best. Whichever way you cut it, they cannot do anything spectacular whatsoever, but instead of being called shit and being grouped in with the rest of the turdbunch are given the much more friendly term of "game manager". They are the cream of the poopy crop. Game Managers do everything in their power to not shit the bed for their team that is usually winning in spite of them. They're shit.
In 2010 one might have called Mark Sanchez a Game Manager, in 2012 however it's pretty obvious he's not even that; he's just shit.

A mediocre NFL quarterback that lets the game come to him, simply managing it rather than making things happen.

The most derogatory name you can give a starting quarterback at any level; but if the cleat fits wear it. In the case of a game manager the reality is his team is good enough to run itself (mostly due to a high-level of talent on the team) and all he does is fill in a necessary position. Calling a quarterback a game manager tends to be more offensive to mediocre quarterbacks simply because it implies they themselves aren't much of a talent, improviser or a needed individual for the team. A game manager simply is filling a spot that any half-wit half talented athlete with basic knowledge of football could do because everyone else on his team is a beast excluding the game manager :(
Game managers are not even the icing on the cake but more of a fancy decoration or candle on it.

Glorified game managers are slightly above game manager quarterbacks with elite talent at receiver and running back while possibly also having and elite oline around them so therefore put up pretty good to elite stats. Some examples of glorified game manager quarterbacks are Jimmy goroppolo, Ryan Tannehill, Dak Prescott, and Kirk Cousins
“Tom Brady isn’t that good. 2019 proved he’s a glorified game manager at best and can’t carry a team on his back.”
“Dak Prescott isn’t good man. He’s a box score stat padder when he’s losing by 3+ scores in the 2nd half. He also had cooper Gallup ceedee zeke and his oline is elite when healthy.”
