Full thing is here. Nearly a quarter of the league going with 2 on the 52.

Look at how many quarterbacks are available on the street right now, and that includes guys on practice squads with other teams, one scout said. You dont have to worry about finding a quarterback if youve got an emergency. The only thing you have to worry about is getting through the game.

Well the part that bothers me is Flynn already has been injured this year.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

This is a huge gamble that a lot of teams are taking this year, I posed the ? who would be our emergency qb in another thread and there were quite a few options.

Getting through the game(if both qb's go down) is the big issue, most team will have someone on the PS to bring up the next week if needed.

Sign of the times, every team is trying to put the best 53 men they have on their roster,that doesn't include the 3rd qb in a lot of cases.

Matt is fine and will be back throwing this week. His injury wasn't serious at all, just painful and needed rest in order to heal. He will be fine.

If Rodgers goes down the Packers are finished anyway. Unless it's for developmental reasons I can't see the point in carrying 3 QBs.

Yes if Rodgers goes down, we need to change our offense to a heavy run offense, to give Flynn an opportunity to be successful and slowly and when he build up his confident, we can give him more liberty to try to pass.

The problem with bringing in somebody in an emergency situation from another team is that they'll have almost no time (if at all) to take any snaps with the offense, learn the playbook, get used to the coaches... You're pretty much screwed and forced to use plays the QB was familiar with on his old teams, or just use him to hand the ball off all the time.

If you have a third string QB, he knows the coaches and at least some of the playbook, and has had at least some experience with the first team offense. Much less of a learning curve. Although if your top two QBs go down for any extended period of time, your season's probably over anyways.
