Tough weekend for FCS/I-AA quarterbacks.

Post by JayJ79 »

3 of the 4 NFL teams losing this weekend had QBs that played for FCS/I-AA schools.
(Kurt Warner - Cardinals, UNI; Joe Flacco - Ravens, Delaware; Tony Romo - Cowbows, EIU)

Though conversely, I think it is neat that 3 of the 8 NFL teams remaining in the playoffs going into this weekend were FCS alums, even if they didn't advance.

All three were victims rather than perpetrators of the respective crimes. Warner and Romo had zero protection and Flacco didn't have a receiver that could catch a ball.

IDK who but the one Ravens WR had an amazing catch early, thought it might be a good omen for them, and then I didn't see anything from the rest of the game.

True. I wasn't trying to blame any of them for the losses.
Just providing a bit of trivia.

On the other hand, guys like Benny Sapp, Marques Colston, Jared Allen, etc are all moving on.

My boy "Big Fred", who had limited playing time all year with only 9 tackles, got in on it today and had 3. He's movin' on :thumb:
