Just seeing Joe Burrow’s out for the year now and it’s been brutal. How many backup QBs have started games? Is it a NFL modern record?
Aaron Rodgers out for year Kirk Cousins out for year Daniel Jones out for year Deshaun Watson out for year Joe Burrow out for year
Not to mention Justin Fields, Matt Stafford, Kyler Murray, etc. who have been banged up
Last year had the record for most starting QBs. It’s possible this year will beat it but quite a lot would need to happen still. Burrow going down is one additional. Is wentz starting or no? That would be another one.
Last year was 64 unique starting QBs. I think this year we’re at about 50.
Lol Daniel Jones out for the year oh noooooooo our elite quarterbacks lmfao
I was thinking about how these QB protection rules have made QBs feel more secure than they are putting them in dangerous positions.
Tannehill too
The NFL always has multiple injuries; you’re just noticing them this year because it’s mostly stars
Yes
Fortunately Herbert’s injury was just a flesh wound
Probably not but it’s up there. Last year though we had the record for most different QBs to start a game in a given year.
And what’s most telling to me is that despite the NFL doing their best to prevent these kinds of injuries it just hasn’t helped to fix that problem. .
The NFL needs to redo the CBA, and get contact back in practices. OLs are horrendous.
It’s the cost for Tua being healthy all year
Thursday night games. More regular season games. Shortened pre-season. All things the NFL did to add $$ but they have increased the injury risk to players including the QB.
Proves that all these pansy roughing the passer calls to protect QBs isn’t doing shit but ruining the game.
You honestly didn’t need to list Daniel Jones.
Probably not. We’ve had some pretty crazy years in the past for injuries.
Get ready for next year when players will get suspended for breathing on QBs
