It is completely legal to head a ball, but like you said it’s not very advantageous. On the other hand, your statement about the kick ball is not true in every league. In the NBA and most leagues, you would be correct (to my knowledge), but in high school ball there has to be intent.

Can a QB throw to himself?
Can a QB catch his own pass? Yes. A famous example is Brett Favre’s first pass (as a packer) was to himself. Matt Stafford has done it as well, and so has a Vikings QB which is to date the only touchdown pass a QB has thrown to himself.
Is the quarterback the only player who can throw the ball?
Any offensive player can throw a pass (only one forward pass allowed per down, however), but it is usually the person in the quarterback position that does so.

The only caveat to this is anyone can touch the ball once it has hit the ground. There are several trick plays usually ran in inclement weather (that hides ball view) where center snaps ball to ground and guard scoops and runs. The NCAA has similar rules/restrictions.
Why do NFL QBS say Blue 80?
Originally Answered: Why do quarterbacks say ‘Blue 80’? It’s a typical cadence, in which the QB is saying this to make sure the offensive players know what plays are coming. Or if there is an audible from looking at what the defense will give them.
