Quote from: Stats Junkie on October 07, 2026, 08:37:48 PMSimilar account on TwiXter posted breaking news yesterday about Collaros' retirement. I won't name the account because it doesn't deserve any acknowledgement.

These remind me of a poster who made the rounds on football forums 12+ years ago. His M.O. was to post hot takes as facts. When asked to provide links he would claim to be an insider - he was the source. He got punted from all of the forums for breaking forum rules.

You're not talking about Nasty Nate are you? Gosh I do wonder whatever happened to him! He was always on the hot seat for one reason or another!

Quote from: Tecno on October 04, 2026, 12:19:54 PMLooks like you're right. My bad. So we can shed Zach in FA like he's some used up cb or hb without any real repercussions.

I guess that's a good thing.

I have a feeling we're about to be on the losing edge of qb musical chairs for a few years. There's really only 3 or 4 current guys that will still be playing and winning games in 1 to 3 years. 9 teams chasing those few guys.

The league needs new blood badly. And the couple of high-hopes perennial backups like Powell need to be given the reigns to sink or swim so we can see if they have any future.

Ssk is gonna be in the same boat as us. The prairies might be screwed for a while.

We are better off then the Riders at QB.  At least Dru has experience at starting games but Coan in Regina has taken how many snaps for them... maybe a half dozen?  The Riders are in real trouble and probably will not win many games next season if Harris is not there.

Coan played a bit last season and looked half decent, he beat out a few QB's from TC the year before Shea Patterson, Mason Fine, maybe even Dolegala.

Ya but, so ssk will win 3 with coan. And we'll win 5 with dru. Does the difference really matter?

You need a REAL qb in this league.
Never go full Johnston!

I m not convinced Trevor Harris is retiring after this year, he's made it through this season injury free, plays a quick passing game, so maybe he wants another $500k next year??

Yes, I see no real reason for Trevor to retire. But he is as close as Zach. If not this year, then next. Both may want that sweet cheese. But father time can't be defeated.

Funny thing is, maybe Zach is the smarter one. He gets to lay in the tub half the games whereas Trevor has to work for it and take the beatings. And Zach still gets paid more!

They both will play because the cake is too good.  They will want one last pay day.  Can't blame them but also don't want either to end it badly.  Couple of legends for their resilancy.

Zac is done.
There should ne a number of retirement announcements.
