Talent is relative. Where do you think the talent at every position is coming from?

No, why is it bad that we can't?

No changes to the lineup is a bit frustrating.

Braylon Addison had over 800 yards receiving. Same with Rhymes up at around 900 yards himself. Which meant both players were positive contributors to their offensive teams. However for some reason, CFL teams just didn't want to pony up for older veterans. Even if they can still play. They still were decent players. I think their numbers show that they may still be playing if they hadn't signed 1 year deals. I believe we'd have been pretty excited had Rhymes signed here for 2026. At least, I would have been. He'd have made a big target for Zach. he'd have helped us for sure. Instead, he was forced to retire.

Why is it we can't develop any young qbs? Or why should we care? Please clarify, thanks.

It takes time for most QBs to catch onto our game. You won't succeed with a numbers game. Reps are crucial to learn our game. The problem is that nearly all the QBs brought in league wide have the physical tools to succeed. It really is a matter of picking up our game, intangibles, and the individual QBs drive to succeed in our league. None of that is readily apparent after throwing a few footballs in practice. Some guys (Dominique Davis for eg) look absolutely dynamite in practice but can't get it to translate when the lights are on. Other guys look like hot garbage in practice but are able to to turn that light switch on in games. It is extremely hard to determine what guy will do what. Not to mention, as Brendan Taman used to say, for every guy you get to sign a contract up here there are 9 others that have turned you down. CFL scouts for the most part just pick the guys with the toolbox, and that seem the most enthusiastic to come up here and play.

I get that the list of American college QB's, and some NFL QB's, that came to the CFL and failed is long. However, there are so many QB's that play at the D1 and D2 level in the US that will never play in the NFL, I'm a bit baffled as to why it's been so difficult for the Bombers to find anyone talented. Yes, many don't want to play in Canada. Yes, there is an adjustment to the CFL game. But how about just bring in more? Really work on bringing some neg listers, early NFL cuts, ones who didn't get drafted. Instead of 3 in camp, bring in 8. Yes ... they won't get enough reps ... but your chances of one having CFL talent at least increase if you bring in some more. Or, just keep doing the same thing we've been doing, get the same results.

If we start the season with a qb2 that the head coach and oc have no faith/confidence to have him run the offence if ZC can’t, big fail.

His ancestors channel through him. His weird takes are beyond his control.

I'd bring him in only after TC. If they end up having zero confidence in any of the guys they bring to camp, then sure...go and get him. But otherwise, I think it would be a waste

I know a lot of fans are saying that we shouldn't consider MBT...I have qualms about it BUT he seems to be one of the only options we have, to bring in as a back-up in case Zack can't go...IF he can park his 'weird takes' at the door and keep them to himself, he would/could be one of our options...He has a lot of CFL experience and can still sling the rock effectively...With our revamped receiving corps he could be very effective...When we have painted ourselves into a corner like we have in the qb dept. I would say our avenues have become very narrow...

why?

2 year deals do nothing to increase their chances of employment. If you don't earn your last year's salary there is a good chance you will be replaced unless you are on one of these 3 year guaranteed money deals.

We have 9 teams in this league. QB development is league wide. Maybe one or two legit QBs a year comes thru our entire league loop just because of the small size of our roster availability league wide and the scarcity of legit QBs. We can sit here and bemoan the lack of QB development but hell look around the NFL even, how many teams are developing their own other than teams that were lucky enough to draft franchise guys. Even then. This notion that we must develop our own QB is not the best strategy. Of course, we should try, but really in this league there is absolutely no shame in just signing the most ready guy that hits FA when the time comes. There are only a couple teams in our entire league who are riding QBs they brought in and developed.

I would rather we sign Streveler and let him play on one leg than to sign Masoli and let him play on one leg.

Teams that had success developing their own qbs? Edmonton developed Warren Moon in the late 70's. Then came a string of outstanding Eskimo qbs in the 80's starting with Matt Dunigan, Damon Allen & Tracy Ham. Calgary was known as a qb factory back in the 90's with Jeff Garcia, Dave Dickenson & Henry Burris all rookies who developed into starters. Then in the 2010's with Bo Levi Mitchell. They also developed Jake Maier who has had mixed success as a starter. In the 2000's, the BC Lions developed Casey Printers, Buck Pierce & Travis Lulay. In the early to mid 2010's the Argos found success with Zach Collaros, Trevor Harris & Cody Fajardo. Vernon Adams came into the CFL in 2016 with Montreal but moved around a lot. He played for the Riders in 2017. Then came back to the Als in 2018 where he played until the end of the 2022 season. Then two more seasons in BC during 2023 & 2024 before signing with the Stamps in 2025. I have no idea who really developed him. It seemed it was a joint CFL effort for him.

Agree. But to develop one qb since Brock as a CFL starting qb (Dru Brown) then let him walk is bad. Extremely bad. I have zero expectations any qb they bring in will ever develop. They all end up coming & going.

Is there a team in the CFL that is known for developing quarterbacks? It seems like more often than not the recipe for success is to pluck a backup off another team and then ride them until the wheels come off. What are the home grown QB success stories this century? Ricky Ray, Bo, Lulay, Rourke, Darian Durant? Seems more like lucking into a guy than any protracted strategy.

One thing in the article made it sound like he got a job coaching QBs at his old college. I'm guessing that's the reason for the odd timing of his retirement.
