I am not a Burris supporter, but a couple questions for Thunderball:

1) Name one other team outside of BC that has an elite backup QB option in case their starter goes down... that is not something that happens often, and Dickenson has already sprained his finger which means BC is already on their backup.

2) Who would you name as an option better than Burris? Which teams out there have a better starting QB? I can think of 2: Edmonton and BC - Sask has Joseph who is even worse at protecting the ball than Burris
Wpg has Glenn who has won all of nothing, has a weaker arm, and crumbles under pressure i.e. 4th quarter comebacks
Tor who do they have? a 50 year old Allen or.....????
Mtl has Calvillo - he is on the downside of his career in a big way; I think he is going to have his worst season of his career since joining Mtl
Ham - Maas sure looked great last year...

So what other option do the Stamps have?

Its not like good QBs grow on trees... and the Stamps are actively pursuing servicable replacements, but that doesn't happen overnight.
