February 12, 201510 yr comment_108065 Remember this thread. If Drew gets hurt or any length, these same people will be bemoaning the fact Walters didnt go out and get an experienced veteran back up.
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108066 I was hoping to get Brohm back in the on deck circle, as it is still too early for Marve, and I'm not sure at all about Portis. If we don't get Brohm, I wouldn't object to an experienced QB…except for Joseph. I think the Bomber staff know this, and are checking out their options. If we remember last year, teams in the league were severely affected by not having a viable backup. Do we really want to take that chance?
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108067 Remember this thread. If Drew gets hurt or any length, these same people will be bemoaning the fact Walters didnt go out and get an experienced veteran back up. If there are concerns about length, I'm sure Troy Stoudermire would be a capable fill in.
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108070 I could care less about Kevin Glenn either way, but if the price is right I can think of a lot dumber personnel moves than that. Bomber fans have had a blind hate on for him since he was here last. I can't think of a more viable short term insurance policy at QB. Not sure why anyone would object to having a veteran backup if we have the cash to do so.
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108074 I just can't get behind this argument. "What's the point? If he's playing for us in November, we're screwed" Same goes for Marve or Brohm.
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108075 Kg is a great insurance policy and can come in and win some games if necessary.If this were 2011-12 I would agree with you. 2015 KG not so much. All I'm saying is a year ago a lot of guys were happy to pick up Burris LOL. KG at the right price (150-175k) wouldn't be so bad. Do you really think marve or portis is going to perform better than kg? For a CFL back-up? No way that's a good deal.
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108076 I'd be disappointed if we brought Glenn in unless it was at a crazy reduced rate and performance based all the way.. I'd rather roll with Marve, Portis and brohm if we get him back... glenn just doesn't seem to "want" it enough... Now.. If Brohm is a pipe dream then it becomes more murky.. Rookie vs Glenn is a tough call no doubt.. If we sign Glenn, is he #2 or 3? What kind of attitude does Glenn at #3 spot have? I'd want Marve at #2 for development and kind of feel he's earned it..

Do you really think marve or portis is going to perform better than kg? Desperate times call for desperate measures. I was more than happy to have Glenn as a safety net last year but I would rather see Marve and Portis get the future reps if and when Willy gets injured, not Glenn.

February 12, 201510 yr comment_108079 I just can't get behind this argument. "What's the point? If he's playing for us in November, we're screwed" Same goes for Marve or Brohm. Is it wrong that I actually have more faith in Marve in November then Glenn simply due to watching Glenn all these years? Lol
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108080 I'll add another thing, too, though maybe it's just me: I've always felt like Glenn should retire a Bomber. I'd personally like to see him come here and play out the rest of his career. He had his best years (IMO) as a Bomber, and was robbed of a GC in 2007. I'd love to see him come here to get a ring and then retire in Blue and Gold. ....But, again, that's just me...
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108081 I just can't get behind this argument. "What's the point? If he's playing for us in November, we're screwed" Same goes for Marve or Brohm. Exactly. If we're playing our back up in November it's a chip and a chair chance no matter who we put out there. Glenn gives us slightly better odds than Marve or Brohm would. That's the bottom line. No backup we are going to sign is not going to be a drop off. Signing the player that creates the least drop off and maximizes your odds of winning is kinda RosterBuilding 101.

I would prefer that Marve and Portis get the reps as well....if they've earned them. Beat Glenn out. If he's as useless and awful as people here are suggesting it shouldn't be that hard to do.

Willy makes more than that. And Willy is a low end salary QB at this point. Hell, Dinwiddie was making about 150k when he was here I believe.

Which is so odd for a Detroit raised QB.. you would think he would be better then most in the cold.. Must be those tiny man hands..
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108090 Lol @ at the idea of Drew Willy only making 150K and 15K more than Sam Hurl.

Show us proof that Glenn IS reliable in November. As soon as he sees his breath, he tanks. Never said he is reliable in November. However, he has on two occasions gotten his team into the Grey Cup. It's not a sterling resume but he does have playoff experience and has won playoff games. As a backup that's not a terrible thing.
February 12, 201510 yr comment_108094 Here's a hypothetical. Eastern Semifinal - Winner moves on, Drew Willy hurt but back the following week. Who do you want playing? Marve or Kevin Glenn?

February 12, 201510 yr comment_108098 PS I meant Western Semifinal. lol And if you have to ask the question about the weather, you have doubts about our backups. Doubts about the backups = get the improvement.
