Well I see our reputation of making backup QB's look like all stars is still intact...

In all honesty though if we get this little pressure all game it's gonna be a long night

Game 1 closed for picks and or modifications

Carrie Underwood will be performing on Friday Night at the grey Cup. Not halftime, but excellent job getting a top performer like Carrie Underwood.

I am still practicing singing in the shower. Maybe I have a shot.

Predictions for tonight's game?

It probably gets exhausting trying to find different ways to answer the same annoying, vapid questions from the media on such a regular basis.

Can't say I blame him for his perceived lack of enthusiasm.

If you think MOS is not all that receiptive during these gigs, he is a love child compared to Kindly Coach Cal!

I'm not even sure a # 3 QB can start the game based on that placement on the depth chart. It's an odd rule but I think it is a rule. The fact they didn't even list him as the # 2 QB suggests he won't play much if at all. Why would they play him with 1st place locked up?

The only restriction placed upon the #3 QB is that he cannot be a kicker.

In the mid-1990s, a few teams designated their punter as the #3 QB to gain an extra roster spot. 1996-197, the CFL returned to 2 designated QBs. It was in 1998 that the CFL put the restriction on the #3 QB to prevent teams from abusing the QB rules.

For 1 game in 2007 (and possibly 1 in 2006), the Argos designated Noel Prefontaine as a QB because they only had 2 QBs on the active roster. In the 2007 game, Prefontaine was listed as the #2 QB so that he could kick.

In 2009, the BC Lions lost Paul McCallum to injury early in a game. Travis Lulay was the backup kicker and he performed the first punt after the injury. Problem was, Lulay was the #3 QB on the roster and should have been penalized 25 yards for illegal deployment of a designated QB. The issue was discovered before the next kicking situation and Paris Jackson & Tad Crawford did the kicking for the remainder of the game.

2018 - #3 QB David Watford was the drive QB for the Roughriders first drive of a game - drive started at the 1 yard line. Zach Collaros was still considered the starting QB for the Riders that game.
