But is it more effective? Florida has had a great O when they had their starting WRs. Bama has the best O in t he country and Jones almost never runs. Burrow could run a little, but that had very little impact on most games. Then you have the increased injury risk if the QB runs. Clemson barely calls anything that puts Lawrence at risk of getting tackled.

I see College and NFL meeting in the middle on this; NFL QBs are running a bit, college QBs scramble and slide more than they used too. These days QB legs are more for an extra 30 ypg picked up on broken plays than they are to open up the playbook or change defensive schemes.

In the same way NFL teams are scared to risk their long term QB investment, college coaches think long term about their QBs since most take over as starters with 2-3 years to play
