Tipster19 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) I watched the NFL over the years (40+) evolve in so many ways. Some good, some not so good. Before parity there were dynasties, before specialists there were 3-4 down players, which leads me to speculate if the time is near where there will be teams employing a multi QB offense. I have been feeling like that the last few years and thinking that there is only a handful of premiere QBs playing in today’s game, especially since Manning retired. While the majority of today’s QBs are better athletes they still don’t have marquis attraction. Michael Vick really propelled the modern day athletic QB and it has grown even more the last few years imo. It’s firmly a part of today’s game and is here to stay. Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson just might be the next player to make another turning point in today’s game. It won’t surprise me one bit if the Ravens’ start using him this year in a relief role. Flacco won’t like it but that’s too bad, Baltimore is actually the perfect scenario for an experimental evolution of the QB position, kind of like a perfect storm type of situation, underwhelming the last few years, drafting a thrilling electrifying athletic QB who is far from being a finished product and a very underwhelming offense led by an Cutleresque type veteran in Flacco who has appeared to be just punching a clock. If Harbaugh (a former ST Coach) can find any kind of success by using an unorthodox offense then it won’t surprise me if other teams/franchises starts considering utilizing a “closer type” QB. Just saying... Edited July 19, 2018 by Tipster19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jr1 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 it would be too hard to stay "warm" and both QBs would have different release points, pocket moves etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Process Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 2 QBs can work....but I'm thinking 2 in on the same play. They line up as split backs. Sounds weird I know but there are many good plays you could design from this. It would be slightly gimmicky but not more than a wildcat. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) When you don't have a franchise guy and have no faith in either one becoming a franchise guy, then yes. But when you have a franchise guy, he runs the offense. Especially in today's NFL. It starts with the pass. If you have one guy who can execute an effective aerial attack, that's all you need at QB.

K-9 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 No. For a couple reasons. One, when they are both on the field, one of them can’t be a QB. Two, and more importantly, outside of a few plays to incorporate into a game plan, it’s a challenge to do much more than that on a week to week basis.
