The mobile quarterbacks.

or running quarter or dual threat quarter. Finally I don't have to hear about how those types of quarterbacks can't win superbowls. Finally we can all just now talk about football. It's amazing that while people were uttering those statements they forgot to mention how few dual threat QBs were in the league. Even to this day the number of dual threat QBs in this league is still outnumbered about 6 to 1. I think there are about just 4 dual threat QBs out of 32, yet for the last 2 years they have either represented for the superbowl or won it. That's an odd any gambler would take.

 

Today was a great day. Now, what day is the combine and free agency!?

Russell isn't the first "dual threat" QB too win a SB.

Russell isn't the first black QB to win the SB.

Nothing will change on the perception of QBs.

All you need to know about dual threat QBs is that the last three NFC QBs standing were dual threats. Last year (like this year) 3/6 teams in the NFC playoffs were dual threats. Every single dual threat QB has at least made it to a post season and many have at least won a game. 

 

A great number of dual threats have also made it to the SB-- including the last two.

 

Can you be The Golden Calf of Bristol out there and win a ring? Of course not, you have to be able to thrown, but this notion that dual threats cannot win a SB when McNair and McNabb and Kaepernick came within inches is downright hilarious.

 

Tonights biggest beneficiary: JOHNNY MANZIEL.

 

His agent should sent seattle and wilson a piece of his rookie deal (along with carolina and 49ers).

You think Russell Wilson won that Super Bowl?  I don't know who Seattle's 3rd stringer is, but they would've won with him playing.  That defense and the Broncos just plain pooing the bed is what won the game for Seattle.  If anything, tonight's game was proof that defense can still win a Super Bowl in today's NFL.  Seattle's offense had done virtually nothing and the game was still already out of reach.

It doesn't matter. The argument has ALWAYS been that mobile QBs will NEVER win a SB. Wilson took practically every snap for the Seahawks this season and WON the SB as a mobile QB.

 

The argument against Cam is that he cannot win a SB because he is mobile, which if you look back at the history of mobile QBs in the NFL, they have been fairly successful given how few there are.

My advice to you:  Don't listen to morons.

Today games shows

 

It doesn't matter what the color of the qb is to win a super bowl

 

it doesn't matter if the qb can run to win the a super bowl

 

You can be the best prototypical qb in the league you are not guarantee to win the super bowl 

 

Without the right pieces you can't win the big ones.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
