Ian Book Extended the Notre Dame QB Losing Streak to 24 Straight NFL Games

Rookie quarterback Ian Book was forced into action on Monday night against the Dolphins because several Saints players including the top two quarterbacks on the roster tested positive for COVID-19.

His first NFL start didn't go as planned, but it ended in the same way the previous 23 starts by a Notre Dame quarterback did.  With a loss.

That's right, with Book's loss on Monday night Notre Dame quarterbacks have now lost 24 straight starts in the NFL.  The majority of those losses belong to DeShone Kizer.

What a stat.  If you don't think there are NFL coaches who are going to not draft a Notre Dame quarterback because of this then you don't know football coaches.  Now that it's out there it might be on Book to end the streak.
