game manager
Avoids risky throws
A game manager is a quarterback in American football who wins through efficiency and avoiding mistakes rather than spectacular plays—managing the game rather than carrying the team.
The term often carries faint dismissal, suggesting competence without brilliance: He's a solid game manager, but he's not going to win you a shootout.
In other contexts, a game manager oversees tabletop roleplaying sessions or video game operations.
