This is going to get harder as the number of games required to miss to end a season gets less and less.

I think the NFL really needs to take a hard look at 1) playing surfaces, 2) the conditioning routines that teams are using, 3) adding a second bye week into the schedule for each team, 4) the lack of full-pad/contact training.
all of these things have the potential to contribute heavily to injuries, especially on players that are taking injuries without contact frequently like QBs.
So which weeks haven’t had starting QBs injured?
I need to get a message to Andy to sit Mahomes today
Mid-season rule change: Holding on Passing Plays, now legal.
NFL made all of these rules to protect the QB, and QB’s are getting hurt more than ever.
Farve, The Mannings, Brady, McNabb, even Drew Bledsoe and Trent Green didn’t suffer from injuries like this era of ultra protected modern QB’s.
50 different quarterbacks have started a game so far this year.
67 quarterbacks started a game in 1990.
65 quarterbacks started a game in 1980.
Nothing has changed.
Well, now you've done it....
as opposed to what, hoping it happens?
Then they're gonna go ahead and add another game to the season.
FINGERS CROSSED!!
I’m staring nervously at Derek Carr
What a jinx
Does it count if Mac goes down at Met Life?
Mac Jones is in danger
No shit adam
Awesome, more terrible RTP calls.
We get shit RTP calls from the refs only for QBs to suffer tons of non contact injuries. Wonderful.
We already had our curse on Friday but still fuck off Schefter
Andddd ya jinxed it
Lol anyone watching the Buccs game??
Well Baker just went down, so might be the 5th straight week
And Mayfield is down
BAKER IS DOWN
Well this aged poorly, Baker looks done.
Annnnnnd it's gone (possibly)
Tush push just claimed Baker
The fix: more camp so OL isn't trash.
Does it count if Mac Jones is out with hurt feelings?
I'd like to see the type of injury these QBs had before making my mind, I mean, was the injury contact or non-contact related?
