Quarterback (QB) is a position in American and Canadian football. Quarterbacks are members of the offensive team and line up directly behind the center, in the middle of the offensive line. Quarterbacks are the leaders of the offensive team, responsible for calling the play in the huddle. They initiate almost all plays by receiving the ball from the center, although occasionally teams will use a "direct snap" to another offensive player. Once the quarterback receives the snap, he can run with the ball, hand the ball to another player or attempt a forward pass.


四分衛（Quarterback，簡QB），是美式足球和加拿大式足球中的一個位置。四分衛是進攻組的一員，排在中鋒的後面，在進攻線的中央。四分位通常是進攻組的領袖，大部分的進攻由他發動。四分衛有責任在大部分的進攻前發出暗號。
四分衛這一個名詞來自於蘇格蘭式橄欖球（Scottish Rugby），在後衛之中，根據他們與前鋒之間的習慣距離，命名為「四分衛」（Quarterback，四分之一）、「全衛」（Fullback）和「中衛」（Halfback）。

通常四分衛接開球後把球傳給另一名隊員進攻或自己帶球向前推進。如果四分衛被阻截（tackle）就被稱作擒殺（sack）。

Gospel, apocryphal：某些人認為"偽福音書：近似福音而未經教會認可的初期教會（一至五世紀）之作品。" 其實這不懂得天主教第19次特蘭托宗教會議上 將"諸次經" 認定為"聖經"的組成部分
