The thing about them dual threat qbs is at some point it's gonna come down to you needing 50 yards in a minute to win a big game and the dual threat dude who can't work a pocket comes up short a lot. You aren't scampering your way through a two minute drill to go win the game.

True. Though there have been dual threats to do it.

I remember when Cam led this drive


Or Deshaun with that one


And we all saw Josh Allen against the Chiefs twice in the 2021 divisional round

who is the last dual threat QB to win the super bowl?


We're gonna sit up here and say "We'll that's different" cause he's doesn't have top end speed and isn't Kyler or Lamar with how he makes plays with his legs.

i dont think he runs enough to be considered dual threat. Obviously he can run but I classify him as a mobile QB not dual threat.

Seeing QBs running around cool but pocket mastery is becoming nostalgic :wow:

Not everyone got Eagles level of O-Line

Pure pocket passers only work when you got Pro Bowlers/All-Pros all over the O-Line

Favre/Brady/Peyton/Brees/Rivers were not having to go outside the pocket, or have to really step-up into it as much.


GMs/Coaches aren't focusing on the O-Line anymore for some reason

There really aren’t many “dual threat qb’s” are there? Lamar, Josh Allen, Kyler Murray and…?

Cause there are a lot of QB’s that can scramble and there are a lot of QB’s who can run but can’t throw.

Mahomes doesn't run alot but when he does it's always for a critical first down.
