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.

[–] MacinTez@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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.

Awesome, more terrible RTP calls.

[–] Ok_Poetry_1650@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We get shit RTP calls from the refs only for QBs to suffer tons of non contact injuries. Wonderful.

[–] chaosthirtyseven@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The fix: more camp so OL isn't trash.

[–] rounder55@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Does it count if Mac Jones is out with hurt feelings?

[–] TheOvercookedFlyer@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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?
