Marcus has them with a 37-0 late in the 3rd quarter. 

 

But my question is, when was the last time a college had three NFL players playing QB all on the same weekend? We've got Herbert, Nix, and now Mariota. 

 

I don't know the answer.

That's a very good question. U$C has two that probably played on the same weekend, Carson Palmer-Mark Sanchez. Hard to think of another 3-set.

USC definitely came to mind as well. Maybe Alabama?

 

All I know for sure is that these are heady times to be an Oregon fan. 

Mariota finished 18-23 (78.3%) for 205 yards (8.9 yards per completion) with 2 TD and 0 interceptions.  The Commanders won 40-7.  This is what a lot of Duck fans were hoping to see and I hope that MM makes the most of the opportunity and gets another shot somewhere.

Last I saw Marcus had thrown 18-23 for 205 yards, two touchdown passes, and no picks.

Probably last year. Jones, Young and Tua were all starters.

Good for Marcus. 

 

Now he needs to hold down that job. 

 

Then we need to get Gabriel a starting gig somewhere. I kinda doubt that will happen because he just doesn't have the measurables. 

 

But we can hope! 

Oklahoma?  Mayfield, Murray and Hurts (Hurts only played there a year, but still)

That was a sweet pass to Ertz!

Was Ertz in bounds this time, inquiring minds want to know!

Dang we missed this game.  Thought we got Sunday off coz Nix and Herbert weren't playing...  Nice job, Mariota!   See you next Sunday, hopefully.

This is JUST like Marcus...

 

 

OBD have three tremendous ambassadors playing QB, and winning right now, in the NFL. 

 

That's pretty amazing.
