gbill2004 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 @DidierRDS: I'm told that Troy Smith is no longer the Alouettes starting QB. Alex Brink will start Saturday vs Riders. #CFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 What did Brink do to deserve this promotion? Or do they want to give Smith a chance to watch the game unfold before plugging him in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 The sad part is that Alex Brink might actually be a better QB to start then Troy Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do or die Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 If Alex Brink beats the Riders...no matter how.....the Rider board is never going to hear the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do they want to give Smith a chance to watch the game unfold before plugging him in? It's because Brink is actually a Dinwiddie clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do or die Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Hall at least, is a QB from the neck up..... MOBomberFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BomberBall Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I didn't see the game, but didn't Brink go, something like 8-21 the last game he played? Now he's starting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelownabomberfan Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 You're scared of Troy Smith? You guys remember the last time we played them? Or was I just so drunk I imagined that we won it on the last play of the game. I don't see Brink's starting against us after he is destroyed by the Riders. Yes I would rather play against him than Troy Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueandgold Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I would much rather play against Brink than Smith. I highly doubt Brink makes it past this game in Sask, but I'd love for Montreal to come rolling in here with Brink at the helm. Montreal is seriously the Bombers of last year. How many weeks do we give it until Jeff Garcia is starting? kelownabomberfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 They are both awful. Brink can actually make some throws though. Smith only has the deep ball. Easier to defend Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'll be shocked if Brink makes any difference to the Al's O. Smiths still a better QB than Brink even with his accuracy issues. I gotta admit I heard circus music when I read the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBlink Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 They are both awful. Brink can actually make some throws though. Smith only has the deep ball. Easier to defend Smith. He used to. I've seen a lot of misses on his deep throws this year. Brink may be more accurate but he's not that accurate and has almost no physical skill to back it up. I do not foresee any Montreal wins with Brink as the QB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
