"His accuracy drops sharply when pressured" is still such an incredibly funny thing to say about a QB you're trying to talk up.

Are there any who get better?

The Mahomes shortstop throw into the guy's facemask is what I instantly thought of. I think a bunch of the greats have their accuracy numbers go up when blitzed, but I'm struggling to find accuracy when pressured. Any idea where to look?

The mechanism for getting better is pretty straightforward if you can ID the blitz and find the open guy. QB who get more accurate when a 3 man rush pancakes the oline is rarer.

The backup QB is the clipboard guy. That's what Peterman was born for. Bagent is sitting in the reserve role, like an elite closer, keeping his arm fresh and ready to get this QB controversy 'a startin'

Eh one of the reasons the Packers lost that game to the Bucs is because the Bucs spend the entire game in the Packers backfield

Like this man loves designing and calling plays so much he hangs up his playcall sheets on his walls after every year.

And this motherfucker had to watch Mitch Trubisky suck poo poo at playing football, while cutting off his own nuts and playing boring run run pass offense from Bill Lazor who's not good, but at least realizes "this dude sucks, I guess we loving have to play boring predictable protect the bad QB idiot ball"

Not like caping for Nagy here as that's the job when you are the Head Coach, tell your GM he hosed up on the QB and to draft another one, once you realize this. Or you go out and do whatever you can to maximize and win with the poo poo you've been given

This reminds of some the people ive trained over the years. They seem like they get it. They acknowlodge what youve said and nodded along with what you are visually showing them step by step. Then they just immediatly gently caress it all up repeatedly. Then you realize those eyes that were watching you are dead. Nothin behind them. But you're stuck with them because your boss hired them.

Boy the Lions getting to play the Chiefs without their top defensive player and non-Mahomes offensive player would be a hell of a lucky break.

The Third QB has to be on the actual Roster, doesn't need to be gameday active, but still on the 55 or whatever number.

It doesn’t help that one of the criticisms of late career Rodgers is he doesn’t like taking risks so will eat a sack instead of making a risky throw

All set for whoever the Chiefs WR5 is to put up 240 yards and 3 TD’s as Mahomes drops a 40 burger.

I dunno, the analysts I follow on Twitter seem like they think it's at least 50/50 but probably favoring the Lions with no Kelce or Jones.

I took this strategy to Vegas once, putting $20 on every single underdog's money line on the first Sunday of the NFL season. I ended up winning $28 total. It was the year that the Bears beat Atlanta, which I'm pretty sure won me nearly $60 alone. I remember Browns/Bengals hitting pretty well too. I got paid $28 to sit in Caesar's Palace's sportsbook and get free drinks and watch football all day. Would recommend.

Looks like none of the QBs are on the practice squad. So it seems like they might suit up 3?

Define suit up.

NFL Rosters are 55.

The Game Day Roster is 48.

Those 7 players aren't suited up really, but are around(well barring some circumstances). Except now, if you have a third QB as one of those 7 they can come in the game if your other 2 QB's die
