I cant say I understand this one either but I don't care how points are scored the one I've yet to figure out on this forum is why posters are quick to point out a RBs short shelf life yet don't seem to understand the same applies to QBs who run the ball 15+ times a game.

Well not only shelf life. But it's hard to go 90 yds in the Superbowl with less than 2 mins if you can't be surgical with your arm.

You aren't going to run your way there.

QBs in this day and age really need to be mobile. Sure there are a few exceptions like Brady but having the ability to run when there is an opening and there’s nothing else there is definitely important. Rodgers and Mahomes are great examples — neither are “running QBs” and very rarely do they have designed runs but they are still mobile and put up 200-300 rushing yards a year on plays where the opportunity presents itself. Statue QBs in this day and age better have Brady’s pocket awareness or they won’t stand a chance…

Yep. In these modern spread offenses when the other team blitzes the ball either has to come out immediately or you have to have the ability to make a guy miss or otherwise buy a little time. You're just not going to have enough blockers. You don't necessarily have to be a runner but the pocket statues have fallen out of favor.

Certainly, and yet you don't elite mobility to have elite pocket presence.... But I'll agree you will probably never see a successful statue like Drew Bledsoe again.

Guess what? You don't have to use a stupid spread offense.

Establish the run and use play action. If you execute you won't lose. 

If I had my way we'd grind people into submission.

What's stupid about it? All the top offenses are that way. With the way the game is called these days it's the most efficient way to move the ball. I you don't have a good QB then run the ball and play stall ball. But if you have a legit QB spread it out and make the other team try to match up and keep up.

These 4pm games are not good for gameday beer drinking with me. Oof 

the older I got, the more I wanted 4pm starts. Never was a big roll out of bed and grab a beer fellow. In fact I had a rule at one point given my family's history with booze, none before noon/lunch.

Funny deal, not many years ago for a 4pm start. I screwed up my "pre-gaming" and passed out just before the start. embarrassing plus i was caught by a friend whom used it against me for the next few months...
