Pros, they ALL suck.

Bobby Douglas held the qb rushing record for 30+ years until Vick broke it, and they both sucked.

eagles fan?

:party:

Nah, actually a SC fan and 49er fan. I went to college with Rodney, and have been a 49er fan thru the years. That meant watching Cunningham run around the SF D! :lolBIG:

oh, maybe I should have been clearer. I didn't know Rodney when he and I went to SC, just that we were in a few classes together and I saw him on campus (with dozens of hot white babes!). So we went to SC during the same years, but I didn't personally know him. I remember he was a better QB than Troy Aikman (UCLA) in college.

Yea, he seems really intelligent and does a great job on that show. :toast:

Scot Frost was a good runner but not even close to this list.

NFL Cunningham and VIck and honorable mention to Steve Grogran

College - Vince Young ANd Cornelius Greene with honorable mention to Tommy Frazier

It's Vick - the other QB's, McNabb and Cunningham, are not run first QB's - they are scramblers that like to run around in the pocket and then throw on the run - they will also run when the opportunity is there or on a pivitol 3rd down - Vick was never a scrambler - when he started to move his feet there was just about no chance of him passing - he was running - where as Donovan would be dodging lineman all over the place and then throw a broken play bomb to Owens

Without a doubt the best running QB at the college level was Brian Mitchell of UL Lafayette.

He ended up never playing QB in the NFL but became the alltime leading punt and kickoff returner in NFL history for the Washington Redskins and the Eagles.

If you would have ever got to see him play, you would have been amazed.
Hold tons of NCAA records with 60 rushing TDS. Only QB to pass for over 5000yards and rush for over 4000 yards.

UL upset several big teams in his day. Alabama, and Texas A&M to name a few.
