I just don't understand why BC is bent on keeping Rourke, who clearly under performed this year, and if you're worried about Adams's performance in the WSF, Rourke would have been 10X worse. I'd be keeping Adams and kicking Rourke to the curb

Maybe they're not. But they made a huge commitment to him. And when he actually went through a training camp with the team, he obviously experienced much more success than this year's thrown into the fire while learning your 4th offence in the last month

I don't agree with your analysis of the situation at all.

Edmonton and Calgary and definitely looking for upgrades. They have missed the play-offs and their attendance is tanking. Hamilton benched Bo Levi this year and that relationship seems a little frayed at best. Sask could be looking for a longer term solution at QB.

As to his salary, 3down lists him at 400k, and even 500k won't even out him in the top half of starting QB salaries. I think your perception is a little skewed.

I was suggesting Adams salary is definitely too high for a backup role.  As for BLM and Trevor Harris I think their play this season has earned them the starting job next season. The Ti-Cats also have a good young backup in Powell.

How does Adams go from front runner in the 2024 MOP conversation to a backup?? The guy is a starter, moreso than a ton of Qb's presently starting--MBT, Maier, BLM, Brown, Masoli and he's in the same conversation as Collaros, Harris, Fajardo and Kelly. He's a bonafide starter and I hope he gets to start in either Calgary or Edmonton next year and we can all sit back and watch Rourke flop again and laugh our *ss off!!!

Your blind hatred for Rourke is disturbing
