You’d think Maas would be able to work a 2 qb system too.

No player in the history of pro sports has been found to be betting in his own games, punished, and allowed to return. Pete rose just got reinstated for eligibility to get in the hof since he died. Jontay porter is facing 4-5 years in jail for better on his games and faking injuries to rig his line. No commish or bog has allowed a guy back. They have every reason to instantly decline his application.

Yeah I’m pretty sure they would and that they are still pushing to get him back. I hope the league is better than that. Big early test for the new commish.

Nah. We aren’t even desperate enough to dress the ends we do have. I bet he goes back to mtl if he is reinstated.

100%. He’s solid in run stopping. Not much in the pass rush. He would be better if he mostly went with adams and Lawson. But he isn’t the fit we need opposite of wj, and wj him self is pretty toast. He can still make plays but he’s soo cheat happy for pass knock downs and beaten down by years of double teams I don’t think he can come back. Sure does. We need air lifts.

The cfl free agent process and tampering is pretty open these days. And walters post free agent pressers are too. A lot of guys went after in the past are well known to the extent some of the offers were known That is a play making position, but you can also do a lot of that at defensive hb and S. He was basically a one year starter with seasoning. I have no doubt he could play at that level and higher if he was still here. for 230k as a db, man idk how you make that work or justify it. You gotta be a monster shut down man cover guy, be a monster coming up and playing the run, and have that dynamic play making. You have to change how offences play. Nichols is in the very top tier of dbs and does a chunk of that. But he isn’t close to that pay day. As long as guys like Nichols, beverette, Pickett, Webb etc aren’t getting close to 200k, no one is worth what ford got. I’d take dequoy over ford straight up and he’s significantly cheaper. I’m all for taking flyers on guys with upside. Having that be the exclusive attempt to improve the team through free agency is extremely risky and it failed spectacularly.

bringing lawler back in free agency. Winston rose before that. We also didn’t have much money after the 21gc. We were continually in a position where we struggled just to being back our own guys, who were the top free agents available. Before that you can go through guys like Bryant, and harris. We also tried to get several of the top free agents at wr, went hard after moncrief twice etc. We had consistently perused top free agents and successfully got our fair share.

Ford and Dobson got way more than they should’ve. Ford was better than solid, and still has tons of potential. But at the end of the day a db especially a field corner just isn’t worth top dollar. We sure didn’t make any attempt to add top end talent to our roster or replace both end guys. We got as many cheap lotto ticket type free agents as possible, and they all went bust.

Some not so fun stats to this point of the year. The bombers have 3 tfl on the year. Bridges, jones, and kyrie each with 1. Our entire dl, has 1 sack. Our team total is 5. Moncrief alone has 4 tfl. Deontai Williams has 3. Chatfield has 5 sacks on his own. 10 players across the league have as many combined sacks and tfl as our team has tfl. 11 players would instantly lead us in tfl or sacks if acquired. I think every one involved gets 100% of the blame. No splitting it. For what we pay wj and vaughters they should be winning a couple battles a game and atleast generating a couple pressure on their own. Mos for dressing so few dl leaving us with few options, Jy for not doing better with what we have (especially Adams and Lawson). Walters for allowing this foolishness to continue. Handicapping our self with our roster doesn’t make us better, or more morale or more Canadian. It just makes us worse and arrogant about being bad. Garbutt, Habba, and fox have out performed our vets with their new teams.

One of the ones sadly

More like injury.

yep. Those are classic easy run and catch plays. Fajardo was propped up on crossing routes and seam busters for years.

The real worry with the secondary is that we are completely lost on crossing routes unless they run at Nichols. We haven't been able to pick up crossers with the wil, mac, Parker, Kramdi, or Holm.

I'm gonna track his average depth of tackle and the depth of his stop vs the depth of anticipated gain. He is a good tackler, but I don't see him jumping in the gap and stopping plays for no gain. In each game, we see more reps for him and Kornelson, with no reason for this to transpire whatsoever. If I was lawson or adams I'd be waiting on my chance to hit FA.
