Romo not part of the top among improvisational QBs?

[Doomsday101]

Traditionalists are correct when they say franchise quarterbacks must be able to win from the pocket, but the changing dynamics of the pro game make it increasingly important that elite passers possess the ability to make big plays in a spontaneous fashion. The exceptional speed and athleticism of dominant pass rushers in 2015 make it nearly impossible to pitch a shutout in pass protection. Thus, quarterbacks routinely are challenged to make plays when the pocket collapses. Of course, there is a fine line between improvisation and reckless spontaneity. But the spectacular playmakers are capable of balancing risk and reward when fleeing the pocket under duress.
Looking to assess the improvisational skills of the top quarterbacks in the game, I spent some time breaking down All-22 Coaches Film. Here are the five signal-callers who are most adept at working off-script in 2015:

It's like saying.... Some of the greatest QBs of the 80s were ... Danny white, Phil Simms, Dan Marino ..... And leaving Montana off the list.

To me, only Big Ben and Wilson are in the discussion with Romo. Having Rodgers #1 is a joke... Rodgers is the ultimate football computer, with in my opinion the best physical attributes in the NFL today. But he doesn't have an ounce of the magic Romo has... his stat padding aversion to interceptions wouldn't even let him consider trying some of the stuff Tony has done.

JJ Watt unblocked with a full head of steam headed towards the QBs blindside brings down 31 of 32 QBs in this league. That's a fact.

Rodgers come from behind stats are beyond putrid. But no one in the media ever brings that up.

Big Ben extends and tries to throw.
