I’m biased as a Seahawks ans but I think Russell Wilson is the ultimate example of this, he seems pretty willing to either slide or run out of bounds. It’s also worth nothing that he didn’t miss a game until his 10th season despite his frequent scrambling.

What about Josh Allen? He protects himself by hitting the linebacker first.

Small sample with the Vikings but the Passtronaut looks pretty evasive.

It's definitely not Anthony Richardson.

Real shit, I was so disappointed when he went down. What an exciting player. Also drafted him in fantasy, my SleEpEr

[–] Patzzer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Anybody but AR.

In al seriousness I hope he takes better care of himself, which it looked like he was before his shoulder injury.

When Sam Howell runs he seems to deliver more hits than he receives

Josh Allen, has played behind a horrible o line his whole career no one notices because he still makes plays .

[–] social-id@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Mahomes, Allen, Jackson are definitely the best.

Russ is the GOAT for this IMO. Always looking down field, rarely takes the brutal hit.

He’s more reluctant these days but he’s still got it.

Ive always had a theory that some qbs likw mahommes and russ got a pass from defenders, who let them go out untouched. Other running qbs get headhunted til the last milisecond. Russ almost got a "good run" pat on the butt from defenders.

Justin had 1,000 yards rushing last year almost solely from scrambling

Has no one watched Brock Purdy?

[–] Son_Of_The_Empire@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Well, I can think of a guy who's the worst

[–] VQQN@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Josh Allen because he doesnt slide. His body takes the hits but his head doesnt.

[–] ScienceNPhilosophy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I am glad you got Russell Wilson and the Eagles did not...

[–] lxnarratorxl@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Cornrow full sleeve jujitsu black belt Tua is the only answer /s

[–] thehomiemoth@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Sam Howell. I am not a homer and will not be taking questions

[–] BurritoTheory@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This conversation begins and ends with Hurts and Lamar

[–] allergic2URbullshit@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Russ is an underrated scrambler. I'm pretty sure he once put up 800 yards running in a season.

[–] tiktaalik_lives@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It doesn’t count as being hit if you are doing the hitting, right? Taysom Hill.

[–] EnemyFriendEnemy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I can go with an opposite version: any Colts QB not named Manning in the past 20 years

[–] Dark_Vortex18@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Totally unbiased opinion Josh dobbs

[–] GoblinTradingGuide@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Not NFL, but if you want to watch a QB scramble like crazy, watch Jordan Travis from Florida State.

Best game I can think of where he exhibits this was against Florida in 2022. Dude has legs, and is a great in-pocket passer. He will most likely be a first round or early second round draft pick.

[–] ClasseBa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Russ is good. Very calculating and experienced. Does like timed runs on 2nd down to gain a few. Doesn't just recklessly throw himself forward like Allen or the younger guys on a Hail Mary sprint to get the 10 yards on 3rd down and be the hero.

Kenny pickett

Dak does a good job of limiting hits now.
