Running qb's in NFL
Feb 2, 2013, 10:05 PM

With the Super Bowl tomorrow I keep hearing the same thing if kapernick wins he will be the first running qb ever. Just thinking back I'm pretty sure that is a false statement. Rothesberger and Steve Young both won superbowls and were considered scramblers if I remember correctly albeit not as fast but both were dual threat.

Young certainly was a threat with his feet and picked up a lot of yards on the ground for a QB.

Fran Tarkenton was a running QB
"Tarkenton was traded back to Minnesota in 1972. He led the Vikings to three Super Bowls in the 1970s, but lost all of them." from Wikipedia
So there's another.

I thought about Tarkenton, but the OP was about QBs who

won the Super Bowl. Fran was a great one, and probably the most elusive scrambling QB ever.

Young may have been under-appreciated, following

Montana, but I always thought he was one of the best as well.

The Snake...
"After suffering severe knee injuries, Stabler became less a scrambling quarterback and more a classic, drop-back passer, known for accurate passes and an uncanny ability to lead late, come-from-behind drives."
Thanks to Wikipedia, again.
AND,
"In January 1977 he guided the Raiders to their first Super Bowl victory, a 32-14 win over the Minnesota Vikings."
