LOL, that's really funny!  (don't care if it's true or not!)

That would explain a few things!  Dude can't catch a break.  I'll have to hit up the PVR for week 5 to check it out...

I didn't say he's a future starter.  I said out of all the #2, #3, #4's in the league right now, he's the guy I'd pick as having the best chance.

I'm going by the last couple of games he started or subbed in.  He suddenly appeared to have turned the corner in '24 compared to his '23 stuff.  He was sitting in the pocket more, making good reads and passes, etc.  In prior years he was just another scrambling/running QB.

He isn't good enough to be a #1 right now, probably, but I think he has a shot of dev'ing into one!  He could even be "the next one", and I wouldn't mind if that was discovered here rather than in OTT or wherever.

In contrast, I don't think Dolegala nor Patterson will ever be "the one".  But I'm open to being proven wrong should the need arise!!

SORRY!!  I had a brain toot.  I meant all this time to say Powell, not Crum.  Too much off-season away from CFL and I can't keep my tier-2 QBs straight anymore.

Powell is the guy I would have liked to sign, but I think HAM sees this and won't let him go.  At least not until they find a long term QB solution.
