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

Im not sure
Brock Purdy effect. Teams would rather start their shitty rookie than find a competent QB in the open market. This is what happens when being terrible is more valuable than being mediocre.
You mean “cost efficient at the most expensive spot on the team”, looks like. I’m not even a SF fan, but Kyle Shanahan, is one of the 3-4 most important people in the league.
It’s Bill Walsh all over again. Does anyone remember the 49er’s before Walsh?
He was a visionary, and made a mid tier qb in Montana, and an absolute beast who went to a small school, Rice into the best offensive duo in NFL history.
I think fans always focus on the players, but the longer I watch this game, it really is the coaching that matters. Why did Brady drop to the sixth round. Nothing remarkable about him at all, but he found a great system and played for possibly the best coach in NFL history.
Injuries are a part of the game. Next year, there will probably be less at the QB position. Plus, more youth comes into the league and old guys age out every year.
You are seeing forward thinking coaches like A Smith for Atlanta that has an advanced running scheme. Ofc, he’s got other issues, but his schemes seem to be good.
It’s cyclical. If you want better results, hire innovative coaches.
Let’s start putting 9-men on the O-line.
Last week or two weeks ago when Danny Devi to started a game we reached the record with 10 back ups that have started we need one more I wonder who it’s gonna be
And Anthony Richardson
I think Dan Patrick looked it up a week ago on his show. I think (If I remember correctly) that 65 QBs have taken at least one snap, and 60 QBs had at least 1 pass attempt.
That sounds like a lot, but I wonder how that compares to previous years
Lions with Hooker, Bridgewater, and Goff are looking wealthy.
I forgot about Hendon Hooker! Is he healthy yet?
As much as I’m happy with our draft I wanted the hawks to get hooker so damn bad
I think, in general, this is kind of a crap year. Don’t get me wrong I’m having fun because my team is doing fine, but in general there have just been so many injuries to all positions, down offensive scoring, and a lot more INTs it seems across the board.
This has been a really bad year when I really try to think about it. The worst that comes to recent memory.
You forgot Anthony Richardson
BORTLES!!!
Its a horrible year for injuries in general. Chubb, Jefferson, Judon, Barkley, Andrews, Jarrett, Milano, Ramsey, Tredavious White, CJGJ, (Trevon) Diggs, Waller, Mike Williams have all had serious or season ending injuries.
Hey, don’t forget Bryce Young, he missed a game with an ankle injury ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Probably not. We’ve had some pretty crazy years in the past for injuries.
Anthony Richardson. People keep forgetting AR5. If he figures out how to avoid injury next season, watch out.
