In the playoffs in MFN-1 this season both my starter got knocked out of the game and then my backup got injured for a drive. I had a HB attempt a pass in a conference championship game :(

here is that boxscore = https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/box/view/4994
which btw New Orleans (raymattison21) won 34 -20 over Atlanta (jsid)
anyway I just think that was just New Orleans ' year for the NFC and that's why you had both of your QBs injured in that game.
also probably will make you have 3 QBs active so you wont have that happen again.

I don't think so. That's the only time I've ever seen two active QBs go down before, and it was only for a few plays anyway (even though they were critical). I don't want to use an active roster spot on an emergency QB.

Speaking of injuries, maybe something needs to be done? I had at least six injuries in the first half of this game alone I think?!

well only saying I have heard which might not be right is if you have 2 or 3 QBs then you have none or something along those lines.

That refers to QB competitions where you can't figure out who to play.

If you have 2 QBs, you have NO QBs.

The NFL is very competitive and Practice Reps matter, when you have QB Options to choose from, you end up splitting those Reps with the Ones (Starters) instead of one QB getting all the One Reps.

So you end up Under-Developing BOTH QBs, trying to figure out which one to roll with.

Which is why QB is the ONLY Position in the NFL where Competition isn't a good thing at... as long as you have a decent QB already.
