I actually think this is a very interesting and hot topic in the college sports world and has been for some time. Our very own McElroy has been discussing this dynamic recently.
Hopefully, the mods will see this post for what it is intended to be and allow it to stay up so we can have a conversation about the pros, cons and even history. I ask that everyone who participates in it will stay on topic and not take this conversation somewhere we ALL know it should not go.
Do not discuss any current Bama players in this thread. I think we can have a fun and entertaining conversation if everyone will abide by that rule and the wishes of our moderators.
What are the advantages of habing two elite QBs on a team?
Have teams in the past used them successfully to achieve team goals? Who was successful and who failed miserably to juggle an abundance of talent at the QB position.
Can rhythm changes and subtle differences be overcome by the offense line and play calling?
Would you want to have two Elite players who are both game ready?
What is the ideal situation if you were coaching would you want 2 QBs who were starter material.
There are so many questions and discussions that could be had around this subject. I would love to hear everyones feedback on a generalized level and not down to the individual player level.
I think Urban did the best job I have seen in a long time the way he utilized Tebow's skill set on his way to trying to win a championship with a 2 QB system. He seemed to get the best out of both of his players. Can a 2 QB system only work and be successful when its purely based on situations or individual skill sets? Or could teams utilize talent like MLB managers use starting pitchers? Sometimes they go 9 innings and get the complete game. But more times than not they need the help of relief pitchers to win a game. Some days you just are not on your A game and need help. But you dont lose your status as the team's Ace. I have always pondered why football players and coaches could not use the same mentality on gameday.
