Patrick Mahomes and Brock Purdy got their teams...Kansas City and San Francisco....to the NFL Super Bowl Feb. 11 because they were able to extend plays and make game-winning plays with their running ability when defenses presented opportunities. A scrambling-running quarterback can demoralize an opponent with just 2 or 3 big plays during a game.
The Buckeyes need to have that threat with their quarterback. Don't risk a QBs health when leading 35-3, but in close games against formidable opponents, a big scramble by the QB could decide the game.
