    I just hate that style of Qb play. It makes no sense. All teams build their OL , and Draft targets to throw at, and RBs to run....Then comes a Qb that depends more on His legs to run(not to throw down field like Mahomes, and Ben for example)....it's working against the scheme of the whole offense. You are actually swimming up river against the rules. Doesn't mean it can't be successful....nothing is 100%, but it's not smart. I mean You can drink a beer upside down, but it's way easier sitting up.

    Had a great 1st year with Ben. Then Ben got hurt and it was a QB turnstile from there. Players got tired of it.

    He won't make it out of training camp.

    He's there only to give the young Buffalo CBs some confidence dominating a WR in training camp.

    The CFL is just sending him down to the minors until his play improves, then called back up. LOL

    I can’t wait to see the look on Allen’s face the first time he trusts Chase to out jump a 5’9” corner.

    Good point. When was the last time a "running back" type of QB won a Super Bowl? Jalen Hurts is about the only one I can remember even getting to one

    Well if You watched....which You didn't. McNair wasn't a running Qb, and hadn't been in a very long time....injuries helped Him learn not to be.....matter of fact Ben's, and McNairs play was very similar....., AND McNabb was never really a running Qb.....You can't really just put them in this category just because they are of color, and are athletic. So that leaves You with Newton who had one of the worst SBs I have ever seen.

    LoL Every Qb that has ever played can run, and throw when they were young.....that doesn't make You a running Qb. A running Qb is defined by having to run also running around behind the line of scrimmage to throw down field is not the same as.... everytime Your 1st read, and checkdown is covered You take off running.
    Hell P. Manning ran.....he has even had a 30 yard running conversion in the playoffs.....so is he a running Qb......You people know the difference.....

    What’s the difference between a running QB and a mobile QB (assuming that being a running QB is an insult)? The running QB is a mobile QB that you don’t like.

    Kordell Stewart is my 3rd favorite Steelers QB. Many fans said he couldn't throw, but he threw a lot of TD passes. He was quick and fast, too... when he ran the ball.
