You big headed retard. I said 7 of the last 10 were either dual threats or VERY MOBILE. Young, Newton, Tebow, Winston, Flynn, and Leak, fit this mold. It's not just raw stats, it's how they used their legs to extend plays. Leak ran some read option if you've forgotten. OK maybe 6-10, but whatever. If you take out McCarron (although he's pretty mobile in his own right) 2005-2008, 2010, and 2013 was won by a very mobile or dual threat QB. Flynn ran the ball over 100 times that year incase you forgot.

College quarterbacks nowadays don't normally play with cement in their shoes. Almost everyone suited to play quarterback in the SEC is athletic enough to be a dual threat guy if they truly wanted to but in reality, they know their limitations. But that doesn't mean you still can't be athletic with your feet. Guys like Mett or AJ McCarron weren't threats to take it 85 yards to the house on a designed quarterback draw like Manziel or Nick Marshall could but they were athletic enough to make pinpoint passes rolling out of the pocket or escaping a blitz, improvising, and scrambling for a 1st down when it called for it. Just little things like that athletically translated towards success by the ability to do that alone.

Youre too dumb to know how stupid you are

It almost every BCS championship game, the more "mobile" qb lost:

Nick Marshall
Golston
Darron Thomas
Jefferson
Colt McCoy (injured while running)
Troy Smith
Jason White
Eric Crouch
Michael Vick
