Refugee Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) 9 hours ago, PossibleCabbage said: Mostly avoided. There have been only 44 left-handed QBs to even play quarterback in the NFL. Some of these guys were just undeniable talents that you figured out a way to make work (e.g. Mike Vick) but for the most part lefties get moved from quarterback to a different position in high school if not earlier. The weird one is Tua, who is right-handed in his everyday life but plays football left-handed. And if they’ve really got top notch arm talent and pro dreams, they often get moved to pitcher on the baseball team. There was a NFL film with some insight recently.

vegas492 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Mark Brunell....Tony Boselli. Just because your QB is left handed doesn't mean you shy away from trying to find the "weakside" LT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted August 23, 2022 Author Share Posted August 23, 2022 Zach Kruse - Aaron Rodgers: "The pre-practice jog-through, I stepped into the huddle the other day, it was Big Giraffe at left, Elgton over at right, Big Dog was in there, Sammy and Cobb and Allen and Jonesy...and I was like, this feels like a pretty good offense right here." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Aaron Rodgers. There are some interesting possibilities with the offense if Bakhti and Jenkins can both come back and resume playing at a high level; and if they aren't just replaced with other crucial guys getting injured. Whether Rodgers himself is able to play at a high and accurate level is also pretty crucial, obviously. But certainly if Bakhti and Jenkins are back and reasonably effective, it would not be stupid Kool-aid to entertain hopes for a pretty good offense.

Yeah .. good move to possibly get something for him. The Packers have a surplus on the line as it is. They probably feel pretty good about Bak and Jenkins at this point.

The Packers seemed to be 10-12 deep with NFL caliber OL and this eases the log jam a bit. Hope he ends up being a solid player for you. Good Luck. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs more seasoning. He can probably get you out of a game, should someone get hurt. My guess is that he tops out as a super-sub kind of OL, probably not a preferred starter. But, what do I know, I'm just some jerk on the internet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
