I remember hearing this early in Mike Vick's career. Then it was Vince Young a few years later. We all saw how that turned out.

I don't know if Pro level defenses will ever allow for a qb to not be a pocket passer to a large extent.

that's not a positive..if its something you need it means your team sucks at pass blocking.

colleges try to run spread options=that's why they get mobile QBs..that wont work well long term in the pro's.

It's not a positive to be able to move around? This is coming from a Rodgers fan? You're a moron.

I think we all agree with that. The average QB nowadays are just more athletic than the were 1/4 century ago. But every player on the field is.

I don't know that teams specifically want scramblers, but guys who can keep plays alive with their feet will always find jobs in the NFL. Last night didn't really change anything, because the NFL has always been like that. Can you move your feet and avoid a pass rush, and still be able to get the ball down field?
