Because I have no life, I decided to crunch some numbers — comparing Ron Lancaster, Kent Austin and Darian Durant after their first 10 starts as a Roughrider.
Statistically, Durant is the clear winner. The quarterback ratings after 10 starts are as follows:
Darian Durant: 85.94
Kent Austin: 73.83
Ron Lancaster: 61.76
The other numbers break down as follows:
W-L COMP ATT PCT YDS TD INT
Durant 7-3 149 249 .598 2,131 15 12
Austin 5-5 203 328 .610 2,568 9 17
Lancaster 5-4-1 100 208 .481 1,719 12 17
At the 10-game mark, Durant is approaching his 27th birthday (the big day is Aug. 19). Austin and Lancaster were 25 when at the 10-game mark.
Durant is in his fourth CFL season, but only the second in which he received significant playing time. His numbers are from 2007 and 2008.
Austin's first 10 starts came over his first two CFL seasons (1987 and 1988).
Lancaster's first 10 starts were all in 1963. He had spent the previous three seasons with the
Ottawa Rough Riders, splitting time with Russ Jackson.
