QB Knee Injury Affects.... Arm?

[korme]

This is Burt Carter. Until two seasons ago, he was the highest rated QB in the league. 82/82, with high scores across the board.

Unfortunately he tore his ACL, and the following season on a late year comeback he tore it again.

In successive seasons at still a young age, Carter's overall went to 52/52 and 36/36, making him completely mediocre.

That is fine. Injuries can derail careers. The problem I have, however, is that while his arm seems to be affected by his knee injuries the most, look at that scramble frequency! Apparently after two ACLs he's still running wild.

Has his ypc come down as well? Maybe he still loves to run, just has to use a walker now.

Vick?

Scrambling frequency doesn't mean the QB is good at it. Just means he didn't let the injury affect his play style I would say.

I would think that a knee injury could affect how well the player can throw, especially two injuries. Not having the same leg strength to put behind a throw and also going all that time while injured without throwing.
