Why do running Qbs defer sure running TDs for passes?

Why do running Qbs defer sure running TDs for passes? Drives me crazy!!!
Because they have been coached to stay in the pocket. All the good QB's do. If you are not a pocket passer in the NFL you cannot play QB. Period. Now we definitely see what you are saying and agree take the 6 pts...but think the that is reason as I have thought that very same things many many times.
vick played well except for the third down play that he should have run for the push
[QUOTE=Fezzik;27346]Drives me crazy!!![/QUOTE] He could have walked in on that 3rd down from the 6 instead of almost throwing away the game on that play. He would have probably juked that LB out of his shoes and got in if he would have had to work at all for the running TD.

Just angle towards pylon and he scores untouched. Typical Vick.
