You could but it would be very risky. I have seen games where both quarterbacks were injured and the team had to use a running back to finish the game (Washington/Philadelphia, 1990 ... the 'body bag' game). I can't say that I know every player on every NFL roster but I can't imagine there is a team that carries less than three quarterbacks on their 53 man roster.

6. 3 per team.
Yes, but only quarterbacks and one select team leader on the defense can have one.
Jim Plunkett was the starting QB for Stanford when they won the Rose Bowl in 1970 and won two Super Bowls as starting QB with the Raiders in 1981 and 1984. Tom Brady was a backup QB for Michigan in 1998 when they won the Rose Bowl and won three Super Bowls as a starter with the Patriots. Brian Griese was the starting quarterback for the Michigan team that won the Rose Bowl and a backup on the Denver Broncos team that won the Super Bowl in 1999. There may be more but that's all I can think of.
