Marques Council delivered a gritty, clutch Toledo cameo in 2004
In the 2004 season, Marques Council stepped in after Toledo’s starter was injured and showed poise under pressure, completing 16 of 28 passes for 160 yards in the Motor City Bowl while also adding 19 rushing attempts for 78 yards[8][9]. His differentiator was clear: he could keep the offense moving with both his arm and legs, and he handled a tough bowl-game spot without looking overwhelmed[8][9]. If you want a QB who can survive chaos and bring mobility, Council fits that mold; if you need a polished, high-ceiling passer, the available evidence is slimmer.
