Actually, I hope his has some part in them, because there are things he does well.
He is a genius at the broad-stroke story line.
He is a very good producer.
He know how to frame shots, how to edit and how to make the visual elements of his films work.
But he is not very good at directing people where true depth of emotion is called for. He has some good moments, (like Shmi's death scene) but more misses than hits (any of the romance from Clones).
And he is not good at writing dialogue, but can write a good screenplay (there is a difference).
My hope is that he executive produces any future Star Wars spin off, write the story, but lets other people direct and share screenplay credits with. This level of involvement is the same as the type that produced The Empire Strikes Back. But people who think he had nothing to do with Empire at all is misinfomed. He was quite active in making that movie. He just left the day-to-day decisions up to other people.
He should do that again.
