How many passes could you complete?

With all the fumbled snaps and dropped shotgun snaps, it would really cut down on the number of attempts to have the passes batted down at the line of scrimmage.

 

Do we get to deal with wind and weather also or is there a roof? 

The game will be played in the downtown indoor stadium

More like what percentage of people would crap their pants 2 seconds into the first snap.  I say 98%. 

[Don Otreply]

I’m thinking that I can complete quite a number of the traditional puff puff pass options…, 

[Green Lightning]

Had to go with 0. Pushing 70 with five right shoulder surgeries (Right handed) and a slightly torn meniscus. As Clint Eastwood says, "a man has got to know his limitations."

I read this in middle school a million years ago.   Great book for “everyman” fans.

 

Athletic culture, teamwork, personalities, and the real gulf between pro athletes and the rest of us.

 

I loved that book! 

[schoolhouserock]

Wait. Are we counting passes to the other team or no?

[Ray Stonada]

Upon reflection, thinking I could go 1-50 was being way too kind to myself.

 

I don’t think I could complete a pass against an NFL defense.

This reminds me of that former Syracuse player Matt Tomaszweski who tried to play Brian Scalabrine in one on one. This guy played in the Big East, but only could manage one point against the very definition of an NBA journeyman. To paraphrase scal, Nathan Peterman is closer to Mahomes than you are to him.

[Logic]

Based on the results so far, there are at least 26 highly delusional people on this forum.

I mean...past history indicates its much more than that, but...staying on topic.

As for me? Maybe, MAYBE one simple swing pass thrown laterally and a short distance, immediately upon receiving the snap.

Anyone watch the Kendall Hinton game? Yeah. And that dude's at least an actual NFL player.

[Chicken Boo]

I might be able to complete a 5 yard out as long as the corner gives a 10 yard cushion and doesn't jump the route.  

 

I'd then be on a 800mg Ibuprofen diet for the rest of the week due to my aching shoulder.

with 2 good TEs in the middle and a great pass catching RB, and the best OL I could get 1 or so.  

 

Now, I’d likely have 10 plus ints and a 0.0 passer rating.

 a slight difference would be if our sole goal is to complete a pass.  now if we are playing to win with route variety including deep passes, those outside the hash, etc. and not running a high number of plays for a completion,  its likely 0.

Am I in the chiefs offense?

 

Yes,  and I think you'd thrive in it.

6 foot 4, large hands, already checking a few boxes. Nothing but shotgun, slants and curls. Against the worst defense and with guys like Kincaid and Kelce I definitely believe I would complete some passes. Scoring might be another story. Plus I’m sure I’d snap a leg before it was over with. If Peterman can do it anyone can.

 

You think you're about as good as Peterman?  Hahahahahaha

[GunnerBill]

I reckon if I throw 40 law of averages I complete 1. 

 

And that would be your lot.

Pretty good question and funny topic! Sadly, nothing more than a shuffle pass here. I couldn't generate enough zip to hit on a little slant or curl. At 5'10" I couldn't even see over the line to hit anyone. The thought of what that might even look like is side splittingly funny to me. Yeah... No.

We've all thought about it, so how many passes do you think you could complete in an NFL game?  For the sake of argument, let's say the pass must travel pass the line of scrimmage, so none of this jet sweep just give a touch pass to your wide receiver type stuff.  

 

Today at 47 going on 48 and still dealing with my COVID body haha...maybe a couple as I could use my 6'4" height to get a couple short ones like a TE or RB release off a block uncovered.  In my prime, I think I could get some completions in the middle area under 20 yards, but nothing to the boundary which would probably have a near 100% pick 6 ratio hahaha...probably the only outs to the sideline that wouldn't be a pick 6 would be ones that were uncatchable by anyone haha.  

[Starr-Bills]

Honestly the hardest part of this would be playing four (4) quarters.

Just go with the 'ol Archie Manning

 

 

 

That is the ONLY way I could do it due to a tear in my rotator cuff that just won’t get better this time. I would “have a catch” with my son in high school, but I would punt it to him (or go underhand) and he would throw it back to me. He was the QB and punt returner so it worked out great. He never muffed a punt, even if I think he briefly went brain dead a couple times and forgot to call for a fair catch.  Yes, I still give him a hard time over that when I can work it in.  😋

 

I’ve got one throw in me then I collapse in pain, so it had better be for a TD! 

[billykay]

Aw, cmon guys. You're too hard on yourselves. I could definitely throw a few int's and I'm only 83. Oh, sorry. It has to be completed passes.
