I never got that i mean it's true but why?

Are you being serious?

It's OBVIOUSLY because a 5' 5" QB can't throw accuratly over a 6' "1 Lineman.

They can't see over the linemen. Renegade_Fury

The average height for a defensive tackle in the NFL is better than 6-foot-3, while offensive guards average more than 6-foot-4. On the outside, things get even tougher. Tackles generally go 6-foot-5, tight ends 6-foot-6 and defensive ends around 6-foot-4. Not everyone is that size in NCAAF, plus it's at a slower pase.

It's also a mass/weight thing, since a bigger qb can take more damage before going down.

Some QB's are good even though they are short for their role... but thats a very small handful.

because you need to be able to at least look over the beastly offensive linemanBeanTownBrown86

It's all about scanning the field, if you can't see ... you can't make the best plays.
