That's 3-4 or 3/4 (it's all a blur at this point) games straight where the defence gave the team a chance to compete but offence couldn't deliver. Being down by 13 at one point was quite the accomplishment.

That's worth very little. This was Prukop's very first action as a CFL QB, with very few practice reps under his belt. Mistakes were to be expected. On the other hand this was Bethel-Thompson's, what, 12th start, and he keeps making the same mistakes in every game. Dunigan summed it up the best, MBT is just not seeing it out there. I see no reason why he should take another snap for this team. He's done. I would put O'Connor in before I put MBT behind centre again.
For what it's worth, MBT leads in interception rate at 5.8% and Franklin is second at 5.6% among the top 11 QBs in passing yards. Even Dominique Davis, who is third in interception rate and threw 4 interceptions in his first game, is only at 4.5% for the season and only 2.7% since then. Only one other QB (Masoli at 4.0%) is above a 2.7% interception rate among the top 11 in passing yards.
