Is that your way of saying that YOU are the one with absolutely nothing to refute my post? Instead of crying about me pointing our your bias, maybe try to refute it.
More crying!! I gotta cry more!!

All of these running QB gimmicks in the NFL fade away...the defenses are too strong and fast...first it was the wildcat....now it is the read option...look what happened to Kaep last year when they caught up to it...There is a difference between a Randall Cunningham and a Colin Kaepernick....Cunningham was a QB first....Kaep is a runner first...Does that make sense? Dalton know when to run, They have even ran the read option but it is not a staple of the playbook like it is with Kaep, Wilson and others QBs in the league..Again, just my opinion
You quoted one of my posts, just sayin'.
I could be wrong, but I think he is using passer rating but calling it QBR for whatever reason.
So your theory is something like this....NFL defenses were caught off guard by a new style of running QB, and then they figured it out...but only against SOME of the running QBs? When your QB is a guy that runs and passes, one of those shouldn't be discounted, no excuses, no explanation needed.
Should I say that the guy passing the ball shouldn't be heavily weighed because NFL defenses figured out that a QB is throwing the ball and have learned to stop some, but not all of them? That's a bit of an extreme comparison, but it would be very silly to do that, right?
