Athlon Sports QB Power Rankings

I use to love the play action pass play especially when it was Steve Deberg hiding the ball from the cameras and they continue to show the RB plow into the defense instead of him throwing it deep for a TD. Over the years it seams to me that the best QBs with high scoring offense are run out of the shotgun. I've grown to like watching QBs out of the shotgun and doing what they do best with running an offense now even more.

I liked Steve Deberg.
He was a tough SOB.

But the reality is, he was really a very limited QB whose one and only real talent was the play action fake.

People either don't know, or don't remember if they are old enough, just how good Lenny's play action fake was.

He was the best at it.
But he also had real talent as a QB to match that.

That's the kind of lines I'm thinking. I want a QB that is efficient with the football has total comand of the offense and doesn't have to rely on the running game to excel. That all just seems too much to ask for as a Chiefs fan pffft.

Tell me who Marino, Peyton Manning or Tom Brady the best at running an efficient offense out of the shotgun?

I think Stanzi would be great at running an offense out of the shotgun formation & give him field vision for quicker decision making. I think that's what the shotgun can do for him to help him out as of right now starting out & build from there.

Please tell me you didn't just compare Stanzi to those three.

Actually, he didn't.
Just said that he would like to see Stanzi run a lot out of shotgun because it would help him make faster reads.
