Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions

In what world do you have 6 QBs to start the main TC after just cutting 2 QBs? There are six quarterbacks remaining on the team’s roster: McLeod Bethel-Thompson, Tre Ford, Jarret Doege, Malik Henry, Todd Centeio, and Woodrow Trey Lowe III. https://3downnation.com/2024/05/11/elks-axe-two-quarterback...

Re: League Thows The Book at Chad Kelly

The strength and conditioning coach might be hard pressed to prove in court that her situation with Chad Kelly is the reason she did not get her contract renewed by the Argos. However it is possible that the Argos do not want a court case and will offer an out of court settlement. The settlement wou...

Re: Big congrats to New Canadian Dave Dickenson

A great guy and a great addition. I sometimes wonder why more former US players don't settle up here. With all the turmoil down south, the rampant tensions about this that or other thing, You would think that a relatively peaceful Canada might be a welcome change. The fact that Canada's economy is ...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

I initially thought that Rourke would develop his skill set quickly by playing in the CFL and then trying the NFL in a few years vs holding an NFL clip board right away. However I now believe he has a better shot at an NFL career by going after it sooner than later. He just has to accept the team to...

Manny should make it to the Lions Ring of Honour, but is he HoF material?

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

If Rourke becomes available to the CFL, all 9 teams would try to sign him. If he signed with the Lions they would trade or outright release Adams. However I think Rourke tries the NFL for at least 2 more years and possibly longer, before he would consider a return to the CFL.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents

My guess is that once the Lions signed Covington they then asked Menard to take a pay cut and he refused, thinking he could get the same or better $ on the open market. Time will tell.

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

Warren Moon is not a good example because it was not so much a lack of talent evaluation it was a racist attitude at the time that was a strike against black QBs in the NFL. You could say that at the time it was a belief among many that the black QBs could not command the respect and leadership that...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

The Al bot weighs in on Nathan - interestin' and funny stuff. Wonder if the Al bot has any comprehension of how former star CFL QBs have done with real playing time in the NFL: Joe Theissmann, Warren Moon, Dieter Brock, Jeff Garcia ? Nathan's CFL resume is of course vastly inferior to any and all b...

Re: Lions' receivers

Getting Josh Allen as his QB can only help Claypool's performance. Of course Claypool has to mature and act like a pro, something that may or may not happen.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents

Maybe the Nelson signing is about having some backup depth if Pickett falters. Not on the practice roster depth but "stay in shape and we will call you if needed" depth.

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala

Best of luck to the good fans of the Riders. They have been a patient lot and a credit to the league for the consistent show of support for their team. I agree that they are going to play Harris. It's not what I would do. If I am a defensive coordinator playing the Riders the first thing I think is...

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala

Mace is a rookie HC with a rookie OC. He wants his HC career to get off to a good start. No way would he start out by entrusting his own job security in a totally unproven talent like Fine, in the most important position on the field, when he has a seasoned proven veteran like Harris. Risking thing...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

I recall Farhan saying how Rourke’s stock will drop as each NFL Draft passes and more college QBs enter the picture. Hardly a bold statement but last night we saw 6 QBs selected among the top 12 picks . More will be taken over the next couple days and all will be considered greater investments than...
