With Only Two Viable QBs on the Roster

What happens if either Jennings or Harris go down with an injury in camp or early in the season. If we have just one QB that is viable and his is a dual threat QB, does that change the offense considerably?
I guess that we were in that situation last year, but Rivers and Jennings were behind Mett and there was at least some hope of having a decent QB back there.
Yes, this is a hypothetical and I will get yelled at for bringing it up and someone will say it is bad luck, but IF an injury happens to either one, will that change how we go forward with the one who is healthy? Will we try and protect him more and limit what he does? Or, just go with it?

According Les' latest troll job, Magee is an option.

LF7 to make handoffs to himself

if 2 qbs go down it would be a total shite show regardless of who ends up taking the snaps. Irrelevant really.

no, in fact he'll probably become more of a dual threat. QB's typically get hurt in the pocket, not on the move.

Jamal Adams or Devin Voohries

Most teams would be in big trouble if their number 1 went down. That said were in better shape than 2009-2011 so stop being a vag ready

I would say the season would be lost anyway.
If we lost our 1 and 2 it would be tough. There is a reason the Rettig and Rivers had fallen down on the depth chart.

Would bama or Ohio State be any better off if their one and two went down? Unless there's a previously unrecognized gem buried on the depth chart its an issue for every team out there.

Run the option with Magee and play defense. I think Les might like the opportunity to do this. Hopefully, it never comes down to this, but I wouldn't mind seeing it against a lesser opponent when we are up by 28 pts.

Bergeron was first team all conference in JUCO - in the same conference Mettenberger came from.

How many times are we going to have this dumb thread before football season starts?
How many teams can you name that have 3 viable options at QB and could have a successful season if their top 2 QBs were injured at any point in the season?

Rantards will say it's not a concern.
Posted on 7/3/14 at 11:00 am to AlaTiger
You act like other teams are just hording QBs.
Literally any other team in the country suffers season ending injuries to their top two QBs, they'll be up a river without a paddle.

I'd think Bolden would have to move back to qb in that scenario. He's currently our most experienced QB.

Bolden (former Penn State starter)
Diarse, Magee, and Melvin Jones all played QB in HS.
Magee looked like Michael Vick when he won state championship for Franklinton.

Bolden
Bergeron
Diarse
Magee

I'm sure we would become more run heavy if we were down to second string QB, and we would adjust QB play around their strengths. I think with our our strengths being O line, D and our running game it would be nearly as devastating as it would be to most teams/

According to the lsu website we also have Jake Clise to play QB
