Guys,
I need one of you football minds to help me understand something here. I'm curious about the QB stance we've seen this year. Specifically, Ahmad is getting so low in his stance under center... And I think Chris Carter is doing that as well. That wasn't the case last year. I believe it might have something to do with getting closer to the ball to prevent bad snaps with the center. Or it might be the center's preference (combination of both?) Whatever it is, I'm all for it because we haven't had balls on the ground this year. Having played option qb in a previous life, I would have found it difficult to get out of that stance quickly enough to get down the line to even mesh with the fullback. Yes, I get that both our QBs have 1000 times more athletic ability and talent than I ever had. And neither of them seem to be hindered by this at all. But I am curious about it. Any thoughts?
I apologize if this has been covered in detail before.
