What's wrong with Rourke other than he played football in the US? This league is falling apart. Talent is low. We need high skill players and he's very high skilled.

Show me someone in the CFL thay would rather be here than the NFL. The entire league is here because they have nowhere else to go.

We have no elite QBs right now, but he’s one of the very few with the ability to be an elite qb. Draw would be funny. Other wise, I’m hoping for an entertaining game free of cheap shots and injuries. It’s been a sickening season for injuries.

I can only speak for myself, but my ripping on 2024 HOF Inductee Nathan Rourke is 100% because of TSN’s stroking of him, nothing against the player himself.

We need high skill players and he's very high skilled. I don't agree with that. Talent wise, we're doing alright. Yeah, I'd like to see it better at qb but look around at the USFL. Those qbs aren't great either. The NFL has taken all the best qbs & either rostered them or put them on practice rosters league wide.

There are still some really talented players in this league but there is a whole lot of talent that would have been in the CFL if not for the expanded PR in the NFL. There are 192 additional spots absorbing some of the best potential CFL players. Then you add the USFL which is drawing them too.

September 10, 2024Sep 10 comment_723632 I dunno if it is rust or bad decision making or what but by the end of the season if Rourke keeps up his pace he could lead the league in INTs which would be impressive. 7 INTs through 4 games means through 9 he'd be around 15, which would be around the top in any of the last 8 years. That 18 game pace is what... 31 INTs
September 10, 2024Sep 10 comment_723639 Rourke has always thrown a lot of picks. Now at 22 in 22 games played. https://www.bclions.com/players/nathan-rourke/165740/ Edit: Was curious how Zach compared. 99 in 143 games. https://www.bluebombers.com/players/zach-collaros/155276/ Edited September 10, 2024Sep 10 by blue85gold add stats

Some QB's like V.A. and Dane Evans allow interceptions to get into their heads and crater their Mojo, others like BLM and MBT will just keep on chucking them out there.

Farhan calling him a top 20 QB in the world is insane... It's possible to be great and overrated... see: Brady, Tom

But, there are quite a few MBB pundits who have dismissed him and his talent.
