Quote:I love my life. I live in one of the best cities in America with my soon to be engaged girlfriend. We're now thinking about buying a house together. And I'm only 20. How miserable.

 

Just because you have next to no football knowledge and can't understand simple concepts it doesn't mean I'm miserable. I just have common sense.

now now this is the part in sitcoms where you just tear at eachother with carnal abandon fueled by your hatred

stop swinging your manhood  because you can always find a bigger one on the internet and just hug it out and move on.

 

that being said 20 and looking for a house one of you is making bank, i've been living with my missus for 8 months in a tiny room which is driving us both mental and we couldn't even dream of getting on the property ladder,


as for the thread, i think there is a lot of confusion between running and mobile qbs, russel wilson to me is mobile, rg3 or tebow is running.


I want a russel wilson style who moves with the first though of buying time and relocating the pocket, second though through the gap to save the play and get a few yards.


i think running qbs can work the problems being most of them are great on the ground but not as good with their arm hence why they are defined as running qbs because the big threat is their legs.

 

To me mariota is a running qb. Those feet are magic, that arm can be magic, so can tebow's when he gets it right but it is too inconsistent. Mariota misses a good number of open guys over 15 yards

 

 When that happens is a big upside and a big downside

 

the big upside is it's another play to your arsenal and one that can completely disorientate but it relies on your normal run game. The reason kapernick spanked us was we were so badly dominated up front we have to commit totally to shut down the run game and the one time we preempted it geno hayes got beat on the read. If we could have man handled the niner oline or got some penetration you can start using a qb spy or a linebacker to shut off the read option, we didn't have the talent up front to do that or the speed at linebacker (but with kap not many teams do)

 

The other upside even if you don't use it the team has to prepare as if you will which increases the amount they have to gameplan for.

 

the downside increased possibility of injury, though i'm not saying either is more likely as a running qb you will get hit more, so there is a higher percentage by law of averages. With the importance of the qb that is a huge worry.

 

I think bridgewater is a mobile qb, he can scramble but he is pass first. I think we need that
