I know. But you aren't just automatically fricked if you play two QBs, as you implied.

I could see us implementing a system whereby Harris is the "Manning" (yes, I know Harris is fast too) and Jennings is the "Vick", so to speak, a la Flynn/RP, but perhaps with Jennings playing a bigger role than RP did in 2007. They both are "pass-first" with speed and athleticism from what I understand, but Jennings' size lends itself to being a more durable running QB at this juncture. Plus Harris has, by all accounts, a stronger throwing arm (don't know about touch/accuracy). I think we could have some success with something like this. Maybe not this year, but down the line.

But who really knows? We have options, which isn't a bad thing. I'm confident it will work itself out one way or the other, especially with Cam's coaching and input.

Harris is faster and quicker. Yet he's the "Manning"?

In that case, just play him and let him get in rhythm. We dont need a durable running qb. We have buga nation.

I'm not saying we are fricked, I'm saying its not ideal.
