There probably is something dumber, but I can't think of anything.
Also, I don't blame Jake for sucking crap at running the football. I blame whoever thinks he can run the football that keeps trying to make him run the football. Jake can't help that he's turnover prone or that his legs and hands don't work very well when he tries to run with a football toward a line of scrimmage. His coach simply thought he could make him not terrible at doing those things.
It's like handing War and Peace to a functionally illiterate invalid and putting him in front of the classroom for story time. That would also be very dumb.
