And all those hof qbs too. You should take a look at Danny Mac's career... he's HOF like Burris and Glenn... journeymen that just hung around for a long time - each maybe have 2-3 really great years out of their whole career When there was a severe lack of QB talent in the CFL, you could get away with a bad TD:INT ratio... when you add the fact that the game drastically favours QB/REC over DBs now... there's no excuse.

They played whole careers with well below what you claimed as the bare min for being a starter, and went to the HOF. that should tell you all you need to know about 2:1 td to int ratio. A severe lack as in 3+ guys who ended up in the hof. How many current would end up there? At this rate 2. Because of the rule changes towards passing it causes defenses like ours to play more read and react, breaking on the ball and baiting for turn overs.

Now we're seeing guys with a 4:1 ratio in some cases. Even the middle-of-the-pack starters last year put up 2:1 ratios... Nichols, Durant, Collaros... THIS. I dunno why people are dragging up names from 15+ years ago to try and argue but the CFL is a different game now, avoiding turnovers is arguably the most key thing right now so you can't expect to win when your qbs are tossing higher numbers of ints. Just doesn't happen in the CFL today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Career stats are fine and all that... but its better to look at stats when these guys were actually successful starters. Rule changes are not increasing turnovers. You forget the old days of DBs mauling receivers AND still breaking on the ball... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Pop Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 13 hours ago, wbbfan said: no it isnt. it isnt even the standard for elite qbs. Its a gold standard in the nfl, not in the cfl. Last year was the only year mike reily ever had 2:1 td to int ratio. Jennings hasnt gotten to 2:1 in either year. Harris in ott in 15 didnt get to 2:1. Hank only hit 2:1 a few times in his career. Khari jones never got to a 2:1 ratio either. Ricky ray has only done 2:1 once while playing more then 13 games. The NFL and their seemingly infinite pool of prospects will do that.... Only because I love an excuse to talk about it: today's best QB in the world, Mr.Aaron Rodgers has 333 regular season & playoff TDs vs 82 INTs. 333 vs 82. Better than a 4-1 ratio. That's just obscene for pro football. Before anyone asks, no, I've never heard of this Tom Brady character, SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 2016 - QBs with 2-1 TD-INT or better BLM, Nichols, Reilly, Ray, Collaros, Harris, Durant QBs lower than 2-1 Jennings, Masoli, Burris, Willy, LeFevour, Glenn Jennings can be excused because of 'growing pains'...
