Re: The best immobile quarterbacks

I think mobile means they'll roll out and move to avoid a rush and not necessarily run. Tarkenton averaged 37.5 rushes per season (675/18) and 191 yards per game. He was one of the most mobile quarterbacks imo.

Re: Vincent Jackson and CTE?

I think it's the multiple blows that does it. I wonder if a good helmet gives the players a false sense of security? More likely to stick their head into the fray, instead of a shoulder.

Re: If you could enshrine one player into the Hall of Fame..

I think he was better than Maynard and his skills would translate better, for what it's worth. Watching Powell on film is like watching Len Ford with those 1950's Browns teams...it's like a present-day player transported back in time.
