Re: Top 5 NFL Rushing Attempts by a QB

I think over the course of the year we will see Griffin's run numbers subside, especially the called runs. Not only from the injury standpoint but from the evolution of the offense to being a little more traditional. Right now, we barely run the stretch run and the stretch boot off of that play. We aren't running much of what we usually run but that will come. As fans we tend to forget that RG3 has played 3 professional games so his knowledge and comfort in the traditional passing game is still in its infancy. We are running him out of necessity as much as opportunity now because he's still learning in other areas.

One reason I don't get too caught up in the numbers is if you look at the sack numbers 4 of them were basically self inflicted. 3 times he and Morris have got their feet tangled and I thought I recall RG running out of bounds once rather than throwing it away. Take those away and the sack numbers look much more like the league average.
