Saints not alone with QB injuries
 

Already, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Saints quarterback Drew Brees, Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, and Browns quarterback Josh McCown have suffered injuries that will cause them to miss one or more games. That’s 15.6 percent of all starting quarterbacks, in a league without enough good starting quarterbacks to go around.

Plenty of others have been hit, repeatedly. From Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning, who landed on the injury report after a Week One game against the Ravens, to Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, who was bruised and battered by the Vikings in Week Two, to Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota, who was bruised and battered by the Browns in Week Two, to Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, who was bruised and battered by the Vikings in Week Three, more than 25 percent of all NFL starters have been tossed around with alarming frequency in only three games.

It actually started before the season even began, with former Washington starting Robert Griffin III became a human piñata against the Lions during a preseason game.

Also the dumbest injury of them all Geno Smith of the Jets. Knocked out by friendly fire.
