    I’m not sure I’d say all modern QBs are like that.

    Hurts, Allen, Richardson, Lamar, sure.

    The rest aren’t built like that.

    Even the ones that are built like that have only been in the league for a couple years. Jury’s still out if this style of play is worth it “long-term.”

      Not all of em can squat 600, but this one can.

      My point was modern QBs are more athletic than they used to be. And this guy is on a completely different level. Which is why this isn’t what every team is doing.

      With how long QBs play professionally, they’re the slowest position to change.

      For long term tho, the stronger the player the better. Using them like this tho… probably isn’t good on a personal level long term.
