All our QBs who haven't won a grey cup... 

Matt Nichols, Justin Goltz, Max Hall, Buck Pierce, Alex Brink, Joey Elliott, Steven Jyles, Michael Bishop, Stefan LeFors, Ryan Dinwiddie, Kevin Glenn, Mike Quinn, Tee Martin, Khari Jones, Pat Barnes, Kerwin Bell, Troy Kopp, T.J. Rubley, Chris Vargas, Kent Austin, Reggie Slack, Kevin McDougal, Shawn Moore, Matt Dunigan and Keithen McCant.

Some very special names in there...  ah, Pat Barnes... we hardly knew ye.

Poor Timmy Chang gets no respect.  Slingin' Sammy Garza?

Keithen McCant was going to be the first bomber QB that we developed in house...  except that we had just done that with McManus and dumped him.

Thanks Penton.

Drew Willy has 27 tds in 28 starts as a Bomber. 4 in game 1, so that is 23 in 27 games since. Khari Jones has seasons of 30, 31 and 46. His off year in 2003 was 25, you know almost as much as Willy's career.

We haven't put up over 30 points in two years. When is the explosion coming?

when our defence has 5 pick 6's.

Thought I heard Suitor saying that we hadn't had a 40 point game since 1993 or something crazy like that...

Oh come on, I know that one isn't true!  It's right in the article, game one 2010.  Now 50 points, I could believe that...  

42 versus Toronto in the 2014 opener. Turns out that was a unicorn.

Hey it was Suitor...  maybe it was some other stat - passing yards....  I wasn't really listening to him...

On a side note I really enjoyed watching Michael Bishop play. The guy could throw the ball down the field effortless. Unfortunately he had no football IQ or pocket awareness but he sure did throw a pretty ball. To this day I don't think i've seen a quarterback throw wide field as effective as Bishop. 

Don Jonas, Deiter Brock, but yes, Michael threw a nice ball and had a great set of wheels.

9-9 sounds dreamy right now.  I think our offence improves as they work things out. Can't get much worse.

If Willy continues to blow cold and cold, we will be fortunate to be 6 &12.

Note that Garza would be a Grey Cup champ if Blaise Bryant could field a kickoff cleanly.

I really loved watching Good Bishop play. Our three-game win streak in 2009 was super fun, he could really sling it.  But yeah, Bad Bishop...

And Austin...  apparently, its just a list of QBs who have eventually been booed by Winnipeg fans?

Will never forget Winnipeg Stadium cheering when Kent Austin was knocked out of a home game with a concussion...  tough times.

The list is Winnipeg QB's that never won a Grey Cup IN WINNIPEG.  Not QB's that never won a cup that have played in Winnipeg.

I believe that all of those QBs have also been booed by Wpg fans.  I don't have a source but I believe it with all my heart.

I recall being done with Glenn after his 20 td pass, 20 int 2008. Would kill for 20 tds passing right now.

When will people stop and realize that it's never ALL on the qb when an offense performs this poorly. 

I would sure love to see what Willy could do with the eternity that Reilly gets in the pocket.

One of these weeks, Willy is going to light some team up big time.....we've seen him do it before, and we'll see him do it again before long.

Yep, that East-end tilt with the Transcona Unemployed Rail Workers and Football Team can't come soon enough.  Willy gonna lay em low.

The question is, which Winnipeg QB other then Matt and Khari weren't boo'd in Winnipeg.

we also had a game vs montreal in october at canad inns when we hosted the GC (06' maybe?) that was like a 56-52 shootout

I dont recall pierce being boo'ed but i also dont remember him finishing games...

Don Jonas and Ken Ploen come to mind.

add Tom Clements and Indian Jack Jacobs to the no boos.

 

I doubt Willy will light up anyone considering he is dinking and dunking 3 yards down the field each pass. He won't have enough time to blow anyone out because he will use up the clock and not even know it!

 

O'Shea came out today and said that the only way to beat Calgary was "the underneath stuff", so get ready for more of the same. A boring game may be the only hope for victory.

Happy feet, passes into the dirt, passes overthrown, high, low, sideways, telegraphing his receivers. He's had time to throw & he's scared.

Bishop had a tremendous throwing arm, the receivers would complain about how catching the ball would hurt their hands. Not the smartest QB, but he was fun to watch!
