Yeah Lulay's streak is indeed over. Ridiculous ruling by the CFL. Only league that does it as such.
On that consecutive games with a pass TD note: (Don't forget what Brees did earlier this season in the NFL)
Strangely enough the greatest backup QB in the CFL Mike Reilly (former Central Washington Wildcat) holds the NCAA All-Division record for most consecutive games with a touchdown pass with 46.
I can't believe what Wally Buono, Roy Shivers and the entire scouting department accomplish considering what they're left with after the NFL make their choices and the additional competition up here.
Specifically quarterbacks. This Travis Lulay/Mike Reilly situation looks so similar to what he had created in Calgary with Jeff Garcia/Dave Dickenson.
Our depth is incredible, and this franchise is the class of the Canadian Football League in every category.
Back to Reilly though, the guy looks like the real deal. I mean from what we have to gauge in mop-up duty, pre-season and his first pro-start, I'd say he could start for half the teams in this league.
During his NFL time, Reilly went 10-of-15 for 117 yards during the 2009 preseason for the Stealers. Not much opportunity, but decent numbers as a whole.
There are so many sides of this Reilly story. Does the expansion Ottawa franchise draft him in late 2013? Does another CFL team pry the free agent away this off-season? Or does Lulay give the NFL one more go? Making Reilly our new starting QB next season?
