2 QBs lined up just means they're gonna do some sort of trick play (probably), as long as they only throw one forward pass then they can lineup 11 QBs if they want! lol...interesting, but i wouldnt do it lol

OSU did it once tho against south carolina in the outback bowl, belisari and i forget the other guy, it couldve been krenzel if im not mistaken, i forget tho but 1 QB lined up as QB as belisari lined up in the slot but to tbe honest, i forget how the play even went and wut they did lol

I dont think the article is about the 2 QB's even though the title says so, but the fact that all 11 players are basically Receivers, the O'line and D'line basically run to catch the ball, which seems like a ridiculous idea but I guess it seems to work. I wouldnt get my hopes up, no way this will work in the NFL or even College Football.

Pretty gnarly in theory, but I have serious doubts as to whether this could ever work at even the division I-A level, let alone the pros.

The way I see it, the "extra QB" is basically a RB that can throw. There's really not any added body in the backfield.

In fact, what the "extra QB" adds in terms of the team's ability to pass, he takes away from the team's ability to run or catch, since he's taking the place of a RB (unless he's superman and can do all three well).

This could work as an occasional wrinkle to throw the defense off-guard, but not as a base offense.

Cool post.

very interesting...when vick was in atlanta they played 2 qbs sometimes but ive never seen 1 offensive lineman

yea there are stuff like that in american football that no body uses


for example, passing back...they do it in rugby all the time but in footballl they're too scared to lose the ball so they dont do it.

It's done so much in rugby primarily because you can't pass the ball forward like you can in American football. Also, having the time to premeditate each play (since the game stops after each play) lends to more creativity.

the level of difficulty involved in playing american football is often underestimated by people who know nothing of the sport.

I actually was part of a competitive team years back so i actually know allot bout the sport guy, and i can fully confirm to u that u dont use a fifth of the percentage of the brain as much as you to for the real Football

with the exception of a QB But still not as nearly close as the real game

but if your into weights an getting buff this is your type of sport

Then you should know the amount of concentration and intelligence it takes to perfectly execute a bookfull of plays while at the same time trying to adjust it to the defense that is set up on the other side.

[LoriMagician]

What are u talking about, every sport needs concentration and intelligence Genius, theres no 'perfect execution' in american football unless memorizing which way you are suppose sprint before u make the play is called that. looool

Like i said the real Football needs allot more intelligence then the 'bookfull of plays' type of sport

which way to sprint, how far to sprint, what speed to sprint, which way to block, who to block, who to let go, which way to run, which hole to hit, etc. and thats just offense. i'm seriously starting to doubt that you have played football competetively before.

well i know everything about it and i think they make a big deal about alot of things that are not really a big deal in other sports

they analyze every inch way too much and...if u do the same to soccer you'll realize how much more difficult and significant it is....but u overlook it in soccer cuz there are more important stuff going on
Football just doesnt have that depth...its like a much much simpler version of soccer
