He's most dangerous the further away he is from the goal-line -- when the defense is most spread out.

Four fumbles is nothing for a QB who runs as often as he does.

He's the only QB in NFL history to rush for a thousand yards in a game.

He's an a-hole and was a fairly overrated player -- but he's without question the most dangerous open field runner to ever play the qb position. By far.

In my opinion, with an obvious exception to Randy Moss, he was the most talented college football player I'd ever seen, and while Va Tech lost the national title game -- he put on a show against a very tough FSU defense.

That is 4 fumbles while running the ball, not counting the ones in the pocket. It is a lot. He may be a great openfield runner but that does not make him a good QB.

He sucked as a QB. He was just popular because he was thug and fast as hell in Madden.

In college, that and his quick release and strong arm, made him a GREAT qb.

He's a very bad person Mortimer - If I only had more free time I'd write to him in jail about how lovely the day is and how nice it is to have my freedom - all while hoping he is sharing a cell with a deviant who wears eye-liner like your good pal Dispencer.
