You are again assuming I'm thinking of Kyler Murray when even Trubisky is a decent running threat. What worked in the past for winning Super Bowls isn't guaranteed to work in the future, and right now a QB who can generate drive sustaining plays with his legs is almost a necessity in the NFL. Also helps that the QB of today is already a much better athlete than the QB of even 20 years ago.

Nah. It's always going to come down to the ability to make passes from the pocket and ability to stay healthy. Always has and always will. Most running QB's are compromised one way or another in that they either aren't good enough pocket passers or can't stay healthy.
