Actually it seems the number eight is in demand…

A Hall of Fame quarterback with three Super Bowl wins and a future Hall of Famer with two NFL MVP trophies are doing battle over a different number.

Eight.

Via Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com, Troy Aikman and Lamar Jackson are grappling over copyright issues relating to the number they wore on the football field — eight.

Both apparently hold legal protection over some form of the number. Most recently, Jackson opposed Aikman’s attempt to use “EIGHT” on apparel and bags, arguing that it is “likely to cause confusion, or cause mistake, or to deceive” the purchasing public as to whether they’re buying products from Jackson or Aikman.

Jackson’s filing also said he “has expended considerable time, effort, and expense in promoting, advertising, and popularizing the number 8 in connection with his personality and fame” and “is well-known by this number due to his notoriety and fame, along with his promotion of this number in his trademarks and in media coverage.”

Aikman has a beer brand known as “EIGHT.” Jackson sells “Era 8” apparel.

Jackson’s paperwork was submitted on July 9. Aikman’s appeal is due by August 18.

Depending on how things play out, it could make for an awkward production meeting when the Ravens appear on Monday Night Football (where Aikman serves as the analyst) on October 21. And again on November 25.

I'd like to trademark the word "the" because I use it all the time.

Now I'm sort of a numerologist myself, and a big football guy. Number 8, to me seems fitting for Jared and here is why:

8 in football has a very important meaning. 8 is shaped like the infinity which holds the meaning of perpetuity. 8 is also usually rounded up and not down, which makes it a more offensive number. Additionally, you can score 8 points if you go for a 2pt conversion after a touchdown, so definitely an offensive number. Finally, in the phrase 7 ate 9, an injury to 9 occurs, so the number 8 means injury.

Now, you put that all together and clearly you get offensive injuries in perpetuity. That's a pretty bad thing if your number 8 wearer is on offense like Bradford. Its an omen for injuries. But worn by a defensive player, it works the exact opposite and can be interpreted to mean one will cause a lot of injuries or pain to opposing offenses.

What a great choice for our 1st round Edge rusher to wear!

Look at Goff before mcvay. The end

Yeah - having the worst OC in the history of the league does not help a QB. And Gurley even called it Middle School Offense.

Bradford could not have been helped any by Fisher's choices of OCs.

LOL. No! I'm saying Bradford under McVay would have probably been a different QB. Tough to say tho, this is all hypothetical

You don't get laid much, do you?

As much as Sean McVay during football season!
