"Ha ha I'm in Danger" - Patrick Mahomes
NFL
A place for NFL news, game highlights and everything that excites you about American Football.
This is nit picking, but didn’t Kyler get hurt last season
The NFL needs to redo the CBA, and get contact back in practices. OLs are horrendous.
After 25 years of a QB carousel broken up only by Baker, nah man. Par for the course.
I do like everybody having think pieces and theories about it but sometimes shit just happens
Clearly we need more roughing the passer penalties.
As a dolphins fan, absofuckinglutely not
It might be, I can't remember another this bad.
2019 had a lot of QB injuries. Stafford, Ryan, Mahomes, and Brees all missed time. I know there were more but those ones are off the top of my head
No idea, but it’s been a brutal year.
As a 49ers fan, no. Last year was a nightmare.
Not even close homie
If this is what it takes for Washington to have a healthy QB for a season, sign me up
Is this the first year folks started watching football? Injuries are always going to be part of the game until the NFL decide to completely implement flag football rules. I think that’s why the league office is pushing its players to participate in the 2028 Olympics to see how the ratings are!
Any let’s look at the injuries. A Aron - 40yo qb playing on a shit field. What could go wrong? Cousins - 36yo qb playing on turf who takes a lot of sacks. D Jones - running qb who takes a ton of sacks on a chit field. Watson - another guy who takes a ton of sacks. Burrow - dude has been in the top 10 in getting sack every season he’s played. What amazes me is how Sam Howell is even able to walk with all the sacks he takes.
2 points - pass heavy league = QBs getting sacked more = getting hurt more. Also it’s not just sack, it’s all the hits where the qb just barely got rid of the ball. Also the league has shifted from pocket passers to read option/running qb’s. Again that just means more opportunities to hit the qb. I think eventually the league is going to shift back to emphasizing the rb’s and the run. NFL can change all the rules they want but it’s still at its core a violent sport.
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. .
Justin fields will be back and I’m not sure. I thought it’s standard and like QBs are getting excessively hurt from previous years
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.
Get ready for next year when players will get suspended for breathing on QBs
Aaron Rodgers out for year
You sure about that, bud?
Nah, best year
Time for RBs to get their value back!
We started a “Last One Standing” pool at work. Everybody paid $1 and picked a QB who is still healthy. At the end of the season, if your QB is still active, you split the pot with whoever still is in.
It’s already doing better than my fantasy team this year 🤦♀️
I’m struggling to explain this to my friends, but I’m kinda getting over this sport. Too many injuries that have too much impact on the results. Don’t get me wrong, I love watching a good game, but it just all seems so random.
That’s just sport though, people get injured and it has effects on the team.
QB injuries and FanDuel sponsored refs freed up my weekends
Just sweating every play Tua takes any chances.
But Daniel jones is ass and always will Be booty. Don’t matter if he’s injured He’s a sorry qb
Seasons not over yet bubble wrap your Qb.
Makes me really appreciate Eli Never missed a game due to injury Dude was like Gumby
Captain Kirk injured really hurts. He was balling when most people wrote the Vikings off.
Don’t forget Anthony Richardson.
IDK, but DTR about to snatch ROY from Stroud!!
No, the 88 season was worst, it seemed like a starter was lost every week even our own formerly indestructible Dave Kreig went down with a seperated shoulder. The NFL were in panic mode at the number of QB's going down as it negatively affected the product. In addition there numerous walking wounded who gutted it through. Ironically to everyone's amazement the perpetually injury prone Jim McMahon wasn't initially on the list but eventually he too succumbed. Sadly the worst was Bernie Kosar who suffered what seemed an innocuous injury to the elbow of his throwing arm and was lost for the season and was never the same again. Go Hawks
I am sorry for the others QB’s getting injured but Deshaun Watson getting hurt is beautiful Karma, I hope he never plays another snap and the Browns have to keep paying him! Scumbag player playing for scumbag ownership.
Gulp
Let’s start putting 9-men on the O-line.
