STREVELER

[Strevy]

Streveler is the best we have by far.  He just wins.  Who do you want?  Fajardo?  A washed Collaros?  lol.  No thanks.

You do a disservice to Zach Collaros.  Your post (and previous posts on Zach BTW) is nonsense.  Just saying.  And you don't know how Streveler stacks up with Wilson or Artopeus so best wait to see how they compare after they have played full games.

He is not a CFL QB.

Right, he's an NFL one.  Down there, what, 4 seasons?  That's better than 99% of the CFL QBs who go south.  Better than Rourke!

(Not saying he's great, just making a point)

[TecnoGenius]

A coach needs to be smart, strevy probably has the lowest football IQ for a Qb in the league

I'm not sure.  His Aww Shucks bumpkin routine may be misleading.  I seriously couldn't say if he was dumb or smart (yet), and I'm usually the first to jump to conclusions (I watch a lot of pressers).

For sure he's not a cerebral QB!  But many good QBs aren't (VAJ, Durant, etc).

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if we're starting Strev or Wilson. If Zach isn't in, we're toast.

And yet:  Zach & Strev, 2 wins a piece.  Zach with more losses...

(Not saying you're wrong in general, but you're wrong at this moment!)

I was speaking in a season long capacity; but sure, as long as Strev gets a 21 point cushion from D and ST, he can pull off a squeaker here and there.

Streveler is ahead of them for a reason.  Unless you think our coaching staff is wrong?  Zach throws more picks than TD's and has the worst QB rating of all starters in the CFL.  He is not good enough anymore, it happens to all athletes at some point.  Nothing wrong with that.  Streveler is better now.  2-0.  And will only get better with first team reps.  He still needs to clean up
his game but that comes with playing. We should be celebrating we now have a chance!  Go Strevy Go!!!!

I agree. Strev for offensive player of the week

[peg_city]

That performance reminded me of Mike Quinn throwing a pick 6 at the end of the game in 2006. The final nail in his football career.

Jeez you guys.

Streveler has the same number of wins as Collaros this year.

Wins are still what matters, right?

(I do agree that he's going to have a hard time beating the best teams playing like that but when your backup QB is 2-0 you send flowers and a thank you card.)

Hogan also needs to call two run plays at the end of the game instead of the throw into the end zone. Streveler has the everyone's back. Hogan needs to have his. Streveler played like he always does. And he won again.

On to next week.

2 starts, two wins.  ZERO lossses.  Strevelers better. Not even close. Play calling sucks but I expect JJ will clean that up.  Hogan is too raw.

Some of his plays lastnight really left me wanting to bang my head. All he has is gusto. It works for small bits, can pump up the team and make them play better. But he's just not starter material.
He's an ideal shortyardage guy.

To watch that game and talk about Strev in a positive capacity is baffling to me. He had a rough night.

Every-time he threw the ball more than 10 yards I was holding my breath.

Streveler isn't the long term answer, and he's limited as a QB, but the truth is so is Collaros in 2025.

Different reasons for the limitations but both are probably definite. Streveler is what he is. Zach is what he is now.

And again, I just bought myself a brand new Collaros jersey yesterday. He's the best QB we've had in 25 years and I'll wear that jersey like I do Stegall and Roberts and a few others. He deserves all the credit in the world for what he did.

We'll see if Collaros can eke out a good stretch in the back half of the season but I won't be surprised if he can't. The QB cliff is real and it comes at different ages for every one.
