McMahon, Smith latest ex-NFL quarterbacks to struggle in Canada
DAVID NAYLOR
Mike McMahon's first season in the CFL is starting to look as though it might be his last.
After starting back-to-back games for the Toronto Argonauts the past two weeks, the former NFL pivot now finds himself buried as the third-stringer for this week's game at Montreal. And there's no indication he will play again soon.

The CFL is a faster game.
McMahon couldn't keep up with the speed of the NFL.
Danny McManus, Damon Allen, and Dave Dickenson were great players in the CFL. They could have made it in the NFL if given a real chance, but they are legends in the CFL, so who cares.
By the way, it would be nice if a Twin Cities station would carry Winnipeg games live.

Loved watching Bishop at KState. He made the game interesting while in College.vikesfan87 wrote:Don't talk to me about Mike McMahon! Former Kansas State star Mike Bishop was the QB for my Toronto Argonauts and was moving the offense like nobody's business, but then...boom...broken wrist and in comes McMahon who proceeds to stink hard!

Bishop's been an Argo since 2002 and up until late last year he was a bust, but a change in offensive co-ordinator seemed to work for him and he looked amazing until he got hurt. The Argos have failed to win a game since.vikingman wrote: Loved watching Bishop at KState. He made the game interesting while in College.
