100% disagree. It's one thing if you have someone like prime Streveler who can be really effective in giving you that kind of look that can put a D off-balance. But for the most part you're not getting that level of production from backup QB's. They have so much information and pictures available now instantly that this tropey **** about "seeing some snaps from the sideline" and putting the backup in just to provide that has no purpose. If you have a weapon like prime Streveler (he was not that guy in his return from the NFL in 24-25), yeah use him. But that's pretty rare. I don't think you'll see someone play consistently bad and not get pulled if there's a belief on the team that the next guy up would perform better overall.

pretty much average usage in an outlier year league wide. Lots of injuries to qb 1s, idk if any qb3 seriously stepped up. some teams like edm had poor qb play and flipped between two guys. Has wilson had a great opportunity? no. has he had opportunities? yes. has he shown any growth, no. Is the whole league drowning in poor qb play, oh hell yes. Any good/easy answer for a qb2? nope.

If you read my sentence i said the dig the culture (and a whole slew of other cultures because of I love diversity and learning of others) not oh I now dig the culture because of Bad Bunny. He just reminded me of why I dig it. :)

Wise men from far & wide have asked that question for many, many years. It is a question that will be studied by scholars for time in memorial. So, you just realized there was Spanish culture because Bad Bunny made it hip. Like, it didn't mean anything before?? It wasn't cool. I'm not into Bad Bunny's music. I had no problem being all in Spanish except it was very boring. I had no idea what the context of the props were about other than the sugar cane field as I couldn't understand the words. I guess he was singing about Puerto Rico. Personally, I didn't care for the halftime show. But I'm 70. I'm not 25 or 46 pretending to be hip. I'm as cool as Bob Hope or Dean Martin. And my music is decades old anyway. They weren't going after me anyway. My target demographic ended in 1990.

See this is where I think this approach is more complicated than meets the eye and I don't necssarily agree ZC given full reign no matter what trumps all of the other benefits of changing things up. Yes of course your #1 guy is your #1 guy and needs to know that by giving him tons of rope to works things out when he needs to. However in the same breath, a coach also may need to make some tough decisions at certain points in the game if he's not progressing thru his struggles (not someone else's struggles, his struggles) and give the 2nd QB a few reps so he can maybe see the game from a different view, give him some time to collect his thoughts, have a chat with the QB coach whatever he needs to do to reset. I think it's finding that balance of ZC knowing he's the man with we are good to go if we need to change things up to get us back into the game.

that would be a big surprise to see. Dude lets players play through their struggles and doesn't even like to take out Collaros when the Bombers are on the good side of a blowout. Not pulling struggling Zach doesn't bother me so much -- Zach's upside is far far far greater than that of a Terry Wilson or even a Streveler. Multiple times over his career he's gone from zero in one quarter to hero in another. If it was someone like Taylor Powell or MBT or Brown on the bench behind Zach, someone who's proven he belongs in the CFL, I might feel different. So unless MOS abruptly changes his ways, only a ZC8 injury will result in significant backup reps. Zach has been actually been pretty durable the past few years -- started all 18 games in 2022-2024 and started 13 last year, and one of his missed games was the BS piss test one.

I forgot about that... the pain of losing him has forced me to take that memory away :) I think he was given his play time based on injuries to the other qbs.

If you watch Perkins in the UFL the offense is basically zone read or a fire drill every snap (there's tons of UFL stuff on YouTube, you can basically find every snap he took). I don't think he'll be able to do much from the pocket in the CFL. The ball doesn't move quick and he never sets his feet so the ball doesn't get anywhere on time or accurate. He's a fadeaway passer, lobs the ball. He is a complete run/scramble style QB. So he's not going to be able to function in an offense anything like the base offense we will be running around a guy like Collaros. But you could build something around him as a backup that relies on Zone Read, either hand it off, run it or chuck it up hope someone runs under it. The intermediate pass game will not exist for him at this level.

dont think Wilson tho really been giving a chance....he showe something in yr one...has poise and presence...best arm....but last yr with Dinglenuts as OC was a waste and everyone actually regressed...Make or break for Wilson tho this yr...and I actually think Perkins is gonna look impressive....so if Wilson doesnt shoot the lights out and look legit, he likely gone Elgersma is a project and really shouldn't be counted on anything but that this yr...or even next if he signs....He is a CIS trained QB who had some success in college against 85 percent of players who were glorified high school stars finishing off their football lives, and a big part of his success.....and hasnt played meaningful football going on 2 yrs now....No CIS QB is gonna be a factor early on in career...if ever. People like to push it...TSN especially and when has it happened....Just look to recent with FORD....Uber athletic, all the things you want in a pro.....Except abilty to make it work in the pros...looked good against Canadian College kids.....but in pro's a different ball game Elgersma sure has a better arm....even still tho....doesnt compute to immediate success and to expect it right outta the gate....is just asking to flop
