I may be wrong, but its been oddly quiet this season, but that may also be a byproduct of 5 changes last season. The Packers were supposed to have a new throwback set for this season but they decided to delay it until next season. I can't really understand why since the set would have been in place already, unless they just wanted to wait to wear them in front of fans. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
BBTV 21,465 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 What's the rules regarding changing a uniform number? If Jalen Hurts is going to be the Eagles QB moving forward, I really would like to see him get his college #1 from the punter, since I think #2 is a bad-looking number for a QB, and especially in the Eagles font. I doubt there's too many Hurts jerseys in the proshop with #2 that would need to be replaced. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DNAsports 6,619 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Joey Bosa did it after his first season I believe. Went from 99 to 97 (his college number). I don’t remember anyone really caring or getting upset about it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt there's too many Hurts jerseys in the proshop with #2 that would need to be replaced. I think he prefers 2 because that’s the number he had at Alabama, he had to switch to 1 in Oklahoma because 2 was already taken. I also think 1 is a bad number in general but especially for QB’s. Kinda egotistical as a “I’m number one” kinda thing. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I also think 1 is a bad number in general but especially for QB’s. Kinda egotistical as a “I’m number one” kinda thing. I didn't know that. If you're going to say that #1 = "I'm number one", then you could say that 2 is like "I'm second best", which I wouldn't want any player thinking. I don't necessarily love #1, but it looks good on some guys. #2 is probably my least-favorite number. 3 and up are fair game. Link to post Share on other sites
DG_ThenNowForever 17,094 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I conducted an exhaustive search of NFL QBs who wore #2, and this is what I found: The best is clearly Matt Ryan -- who is a legitimate great QB -- but that's not a lot of success at that number. So I agree, #2 is not a great QB number, but could be a great opportunity for Jalen. I say he should make it work. Link to post Share on other sites
BBTV 21,465 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I know you're not looking for backups or 3rd stringers, but Matt Barkley wore it for the Eagles a few years ago. I think it's especially bad on the Eagles. The 2 is just wonky. Make the kicker wear it. Link to post Share on other sites

Is there a reason why he didn’t choose his college 5? It’s not retired by the team nor is any other player wearing it. Link to post Share on other sites

BBTV 21,465 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I'm old enough to (vaguely) remember Flutie from those teams. It's just such a bad stand-alone number. It's even worse-looking for a Bears QB than an Eagles. Link to post Share on other sites
DG_ThenNowForever 17,094 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I thought about him, but Doug Flutie doesn't count because his NFL success came in this number: If he hadn't had his time with the Bills, he wouldn't be a part of this conversation. Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you're Warren Moon, who chose that number specifically because he knew it'd draw attention to his position as leader on the field. Now Jeff George in ATL on the other hand... 22 hours ago, DG_ThenNowForever said: I conducted an exhaustive search of NFL QBs who wore #2, and this is what I found: The best is clearly Matt Ryan -- who is a legitimate great QB -- but that's not a lot of success at that number.

Also, I think Tim Couch kinda sparked off the then-trend of QBs wearing 2 in the NFL; I'm pretty sure Doug Flutie was the last starter to do so before Couch was drafted. (Unrelated, but I really liked that Simms kid. Hate that he didn't pan out...) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
