The Quarterbacks

Bleue Dry 7.1 – Frédéric Juneau

Grade: A+
7 GP, 164 ATT, 111 COMP, 1,586 YDS, 35 TD, 6 INT, 5 SK, 67.7% COMP, 14.3 YDS/COMP, 123.1 QB Rating

✅ Why A+?

Bleue Dry sits first in the standings at 7-2-0
Juneau leads the league in touchdown passes (35)
Excellent yards per completion (14.3) — shows he’s making big plays
Only 6 interceptions despite high usage
123.1 QB rating — among the best in the league

🔴 Weaknesses:

None
Juneau is the engine of Bleue Dry’s offense. His combination of volume, efficiency, and explosiveness puts him at the top tier.

Five Guys – Jared Buck

Grade: A
5 GP, 140 ATT, 94 COMP, 1,063 YDS, 20 TD, 5 INT, 3 SK, 67.1% COMP, 11.3 YDS/COMP, 114.4 QB Rating

✅ Why A?

5-2 team record with Buck leading the charge
20 TDs in just 5 games — top-tier pace
Strong efficiency (67.1% COMP), low sack total
11.3 yards per completion shows he’s stretching the field

🔴 Weaknesses:

Slightly lower total volume due to only playing 5 games
Buck has been phenomenal when on the field. He’s played like a top QB, but with fewer games than others, he just misses A+ status.

CTE – Alessandro Barazzoni

Grade: A-
8 GP, 237 ATT, 165 COMP, 1,946 YDS, 31 TD, 11 INT, 13 SK, 69.6% COMP, 11.8 YDS/COMP, 114.6 QB Rating

✅ Why A-?

Massive yardage leader (1,946 yards in 8 games)
Excellent completion rate (69.6%) and great production
31 TDs is elite

🔴 Weaknesses:

11 interceptions — one of the highest among top QBs
13 sacks is also too high
Barazzoni is one of the most productive QBs in the league, but the mistakes (INTs, sacks) hold him back from a higher grade.

X-Men – Noah Swaminadhan

Grade: A+
7 GP, 211 ATT, 147 COMP, 1,576 YDS, 29 TD, 3 INT, 19 SK, 69.7% COMP, 10.7 YDS/COMP, 124.9 QB Rating

✅ Why A+?

Best TD-INT ratio among starters (29 TD to just 3 INT)
Highest completion rate among full-time QBs (69.7%)
Excellent QB rating (124.9)
Great volume and efficiency combined

🔴 Weaknesses:

19 sacks — most in the division
Despite the pressure he’s taken, Swaminadhan’s numbers are phenomenal. He’s a top-tier decision-maker and a big reason for X-Men’s success.

Quebec U16A – Keenan Lahens

Grade: B
7 GP, 51 ATT, 35 COMP, 445 YDS, 6 TD, 5 INT, 2 SK, 68.6% COMP, 12.7 YDS/COMP, 95.3 QB Rating

✅ Why B?

Efficient in a smaller role: 68.6% completion, 12.7 YPC
Very few sacks (2)
Good passer rating for his usage

🔴 Weaknesses:

Low volume (only 51 attempts over 7 games)
5 INTs on limited passes is a concern
Lahens is efficient but has had a limited impact. His flashes are promising, but he’s not carrying the offense just yet.

Primal – Mederic Lauzon

Grade: A-
4 GP, 127 ATT, 88 COMP, 907 YDS, 19 TD, 3 INT, 0 SK, 69.3% COMP, 10.3 YDS/COMP, 119.3 QB Rating

✅ Why A-?

Great efficiency (69.3% COMP, 119.3 QB rating)
19 TDs and only 3 INTs in just 4 games
Hasn’t been sacked once — elite awareness

🔴 Weaknesses:

Only 4 games played — small sample
Slightly lower YPC than the top-tier guys
Lauzon has been fantastic in limited action. If he played a full season at this level, he’d be in the A+ conversation.

Gamblers Anonymous – Adam Malinoff

Grade: D
4 GP, 111 ATT, 40 COMP, 556 YDS, 10 TD, 7 INT, 6 SK, 36.0% COMP, 13.9 YDS/COMP, 56.7 QB Rating

✅ Why D?

13.9 yards per completion shows he goes deep

🔴 Weaknesses:

36.0% completion rate — lowest among starters
7 INTs and 6 sacks in only 4 games
Malinoff’s deep passing ability doesn’t make up for his lack of accuracy and turnover issues. He’s been a liability more than a leader.

Quebec U16B – Karl Gargantini

Grade: C
7 GP, 117 ATT, 71 COMP, 733 YDS, 11 TD, 6 INT, 3 SK, 60.7% COMP, 10.3 YDS/COMP, 88.7 QB Rating

✅ Why C?

Solid completion rate (60.7%) for a young QB
Respectable 10.3 yards per completion
11 TDs is decent

🔴 Weaknesses:

0-7 team record — hasn’t found a way to win
6 INTs keeps his grade from rising
Gargantini shows potential, but hasn’t translated it into wins. He’s still developing and gaining valuable experience.

The Receivers

Bleue Dry 7.1 – Giovani Antonacci

Grade: A+
7 GP, 29 REC, 35 TGT, 485 YDS, 15 TD, 16.7 YDS/REC

✅ Why A+?

Leads the division in receiving touchdowns (15)
16.7 yards per catch — shows big-play ability every time he touches the ball
High efficiency (29 catches on 35 targets)
A massive red-zone threat and deep-ball weapon

🔴 Weaknesses:

None. He’s producing at an elite level and stretching the field consistently
Antonacci is the most dangerous receiver in the league and a key reason Bleue Dry sits atop the standings.

X-Men – Zack Sebestyen

Grade: A
8 GP, 67 REC, 78 TGT, 756 YDS, 14 TD, 11.3 YDS/REC

✅ Why A?

Leads the division in receptions and yards
Huge target share (78 targets), and he consistently delivers
14 TDs is among the league’s best
Extremely reliable — the go-to guy on all downs

🔴 Weaknesses:

Slightly lower yards per catch (11.3) compared to top deep threats
Sebestyen is the volume king. He’s the heartbeat of the X-Men offense, moving the chains and scoring often.

CTE – Jaylan Greaves

Grade: A-
4 GP, 19 REC, 19 TGT, 343 YDS, 7 TD, 18.1 YDS/REC

✅ Why A-?

Perfect efficiency: caught every target (19/19)
Elite explosiveness: 18.1 yards per catch
7 TDs in 4 games — amazing rate

🔴 Weaknesses:

Only 4 games played — small sample size
Greaves has been lights out when available. If he had more volume, he’d be in the A+ range.

Five Guys – Mathieu Lepage

Grade: B+
6 GP, 26 REC, 32 TGT, 358 YDS, 7 TD, 13.8 YDS/REC

✅ Why B+?

Very good efficiency and solid yardage
13.8 yards per catch is strong
7 TDs in 6 games is great production

🔴 Weaknesses:

Lower volume than some other top WRs
Lepage is an underrated weapon for Five Guys. He’s efficient and productive, just not as high-volume as the elite guys.

Primal – Jean-Philippe Régnier

Grade: A-
6 GP, 42 REC, 52 TGT, 459 YDS, 11 TD, 10.9 YDS/REC

✅ Why A-?

Consistently productive — 11 TDs in 6 games is fantastic
High reception count shows he’s trusted and heavily used
Moves the chains and scores

🔴 Weaknesses:

Yardage per catch (10.9) is a bit lower for a top WR
Régnier is the steady anchor of Primal’s offense. Maybe not a pure burner, but he’s always open and finds the end zone.

Gamblers Anonymous – Sam Anastasopoulos

Grade: B
7 GP, 24 REC, 30 TGT, 357 YDS, 5 TD, 14.9 YDS/REC

✅ Why B?

Solid yardage and yards per catch (14.9)
5 TDs in a struggling offense is impressive
Reliable option for a team that’s had QB issues

🔴 Weaknesses:

Not a high-volume target
5 TDs is solid, but not elite
Anastasopoulos has been a bright spot for Gamblers. He’s efficient and makes big plays, even if the offense around him is inconsistent.

Quebec U16A – Ryan McHugh

Grade: B-
6 GP, 11 REC, 12 TGT, 183 YDS, 3 TD, 16.6 YDS/REC

✅ Why B-?

Extremely efficient (11 catches on 12 targets)
Big-play threat with 16.6 yards per catch
Producing despite limited passing volume from his QBs

🔴 Weaknesses:

Low overall volume (only 11 receptions)
Only 3 TDs — not a major red-zone threat
McHugh is doing a lot with a little. If the offense opened up more, he’d likely shine even brighter.

Quebec U16B – Ethan Velenosi

Grade: C+
6 GP, 16 REC, 27 TGT, 263 YDS, 4 TD, 16.4 YDS/REC

✅ Why C+?

16.4 yards per catch is very strong
Has shown flashes as a deep threat
4 TDs is solid on a winless team

🔴 Weaknesses:

Efficiency could be better (16 catches on 27 targets)
Team record and lack of consistent offense limits his opportunities
Velenosi has potential and some explosive plays under his belt. But in a struggling offense, he hasn’t had the chance to break out fully yet.
