NFL Week 3 -- Winding your way down on Baker Street

And now for something a little different. Commentary on adult league football.

 

Not sure it's happened before this year, but exactly HALF of the starting jobs in the NFL at the start of the year were held by non-white QBs.

 

This must be why Clay Trumpist thinks the NFL has gone woke.

 

Honestly, I'll leave it for others to write about - but the days of the big, tall QB standing in the pocket are waning. You need a mobile QB who can get outside the pocket, if only for their own survival given the state of offensive line play and the defenses of today's game. You need to change the dynamics of pass coverage by creating new angles etc. Also doesn't hurt if a QB can pick up a first down with their legs when needed. It was only a matter of time before coaches realized it makes sense to put their best athlete in the most impactful position on the field.
