IP firmly believes this is a QB game now and WR's are more valuable than RB's.


Cam and Tebow both could throw the ball and had to in big games.
Colt McCoy got TX to the NC with his arm and a freshman QB almost beat Bama with his arm.
Bama beat LSU in the rematch because LSU couldn't throw. Bama had AJ McCarron and he didn't need much to beat ND.
Winston took FSU to a NC with his arm. He drove them the length of the field in less than one minute.
Jones led OSU in the Playoffs, especially when they played Bama and Simms could not throw a completion.
Kelley took Clemson to a NC and a runner-up position. People want to claim it was his legs, but his passing game made Clemson a contender (see Kelley this year for Clemson)
This past season, Mayfield took OU to the playoff with his arm and made them competitive on that alone. Bama was flopping around on Offense until they started throwing the ball. And UGA lost the Game because they couldn't throw the ball and Bama stopped the run.

So I stand by my post, that the future of College Football lies with the QBs and WRs.

Jacob Coker, Greg McElroy, Matt Flynn, Matt Mauck, and Craig Krenzel all also won titles.

If your argument is that teams have to be ABLE to throw then ball, well then no shite. Jake Fromm can throw the ball. He can do so quite well, as he demonstrated several times.

You certainly don't need a superstar quarterback to win the title. That's been proven over and over and over again.

You mean Deshawn Watson?

You might want it to be QB driven because Auburn has a good one this year. A dynamic QB can be all a team needs but running the ball and stopping the run has been and will be the key to success. There just isn’t enough dynamic qb’s available.

The sec looks to have the best qb play it’s seen in a while but it’s still going to come down to LOS and running the ball.
