Lizard King Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Yup, they just said it on tv. That's why he stopped getting touches and brought inPope. I don't even know what to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 its cool in theory this is all part of bowles and macaggnan's master plan which is so deep and intricate that none of us are capable of comprehending it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugg Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 If Forte were hurt, would they simply pass every down? Overthinking it in the extreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRy56 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm pretty sure it's standard to dress two quarterbacks and have one emergency (ie. Powell, Edelman) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 To be fair, many teams do not activate a #3 QB. We probably should. But it's not unusual not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxAF Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Well most teams don't have 4 QB's on their roster. Petty should start the next game. Geno wasn't impressive, still holding on to the ball too long and doesn't know how to get rid of it....still. Fitz is Fitz is Fitz. It was a win today but it wasn't pretty.

thshadow Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 This was ridiculous, as the announcers said. You are so careful to make sure that if Fitz is hurt that Powell is available?? Is he so much better than snapping the ball to Forte? And besides, what are the chances that both Powell *AND* Fitz will get hurt?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 In terms of today's game roster, BFD. I give Bowles a lot of **** here but this is a big fat nothing. No one can see into the future, and had we needed another player elsewhere due to someone different getting injured, and we didn't have a replacement because we dressed 3 QBs, then that would have instead been the complaint. Bowles does so many things wrong there's no reason to find fault with something everyone does. There are plenty of teams every year that don't have 3 QBs on the entire roster, let alone dress 3 of them on game day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when things go good, we look for the bad. I guess years and years of disappointments have us always bracing for the worst. We really do want to enjoy it. But, we always think something will come along and ruin it. Probably some kind of self defense mechanism. Not saying it's right. It just is.

bealeb319 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Because the announcer speculated that that is why Powell was not getting touches doesn't mean it is the truth.Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realized after I had posted the message that the "emergency QB" rule was abolished in 2011. I, apparently, wasn't aware of it. So I do, in fact, take my words back.
