Don't get your point there. Awesome QB's. Extremely successful. What am I missing, Boston?

You pointed out QBs that didn’t win SB that were known for running. I pointed out QBs that didn’t win SB that were known for passing. That’s all.

Since 1995 here is a list of all QB's that have won the championship.

Troy Aikman
Brett Favre
John Elway
Kurt Warner
Trent Dilfer
Tom Brady
Brad Johnson
Ben Roethlisberger
Peyton Manning
Eli Manning
Drew Brees
Aaron Rodgers
Joe Flacco
Russell Wilson
Nick Foles
Patrick Mahomes

I really only see three that I would clearly call having an elusive style and they all had a single win a piece. The rest accounted for the other 22 wins and all were what would be described as "pocket passers". The other three have each shown an ability to protect their bodies and still base most of their game on their arms, as well, unlike the new breed of QB's that are run centric. None of those have proven they can win it all. Or even stay healthy.

Of course there are going to be pocket passers that don't win it all. There can only be one a year.
