Come on. You're usually better than that. Let's say we had to replace Zach with Brown this year, we didn't miss a beat and won more games than we did last year. Wouldn't you expect Brown to be the MOP of the team & likely the league MOP? I would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how to check if that's ever been done before, but it seems like such an anomaly. Easy to put all of that on Leake's level of play (and he has been outstanding), but credit has to be shared with having the best kickoff guy (Bede), the two best punters (Bede and Haggerty) and our defence (of course). As game plans go, it works pretty good. Mark H. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with that, and I don't believe he's reached his ceiling, but it would be a farce if he were to win MOP this year based on very pedestrian ability to put the ball in the end zone. He ranks 6th in QB red zone efficiency, and that is one of the gold standards of QB play I look for. 1 hour ago, rebusrankin said: If Rourke had stayed healthy, he was on pace for about 6000 yards and 50 tds. Hype was at least justified. For sure. Rourke was sizzling out of the gate last year. Flutie-esque numbers. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbbfan Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 It’ll be interesting to see what Kelly does next year. He’s been heavily protected this year from adversity. But over coming adversity is what makes a qb great. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Collaros and Oliviera both surged past Adams in the 2nd half. Adams choked away BC's shot at first place and the Bombers stepped on him and BC on the way to first place. rebusrankin, BigBlueFanatic, Mark H. and 4 others 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 For MOP I can only accept Brady or Kelly and as much as people want to rag on Kelly he really did play great all season long. I would choose Brady because the combine yardage being over 2000, being CDN, was a difference maker in many games... he deserves it. Vernon Adams had several stinkers and wasn't all that great down the stretch. No way should he win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not sure you can point to 1 or more games where Kelly made more plays than anyone else on that team.
