ya before that he was averaging some thing dismal like 1.9ypc

No doubt. Bob wiley to the resuce... and american ol. Games in the CFL are often won by offensive out put. And OL is the first possible point of failure in every single play. Not a spot to be stingy for ratio reasons. Some people talked about NI quality falling off some what in the off season. It maybe that the next gen type athletic big OL from the us have surpassed the old NI ol. Gray is cut of that cloth, but guys like him are few and far between. There is a 350 lbs OL in the ncaa that is also very productive in track and field. And not in weight throwin, relay and sprinting. If you grow up in canada, are big and can move your feet hockey tends to get you. The athletes That used to become NI OL didnt really have much of a hockey chance other then being a tough guy.

This OL is the best i have seen in blue in gold probably ever. And when you consider the depth we have its just insane what they have managed to do. We could survive (again) with out harris. But itd mean hurl is a lock. It would hurt a lot, but flanders et al could handle the load. Medlock would be some kind of awful. I mean we sent the flyin frenchie back to school. I dont even know what we would do. I shutter to think about it. Hurl, thomas,westerman, loffler, 2 ol, and 1 wr. We would be locked into hurl, and wouldnt get the extra DI. With flanders starting, we could rotate normand in for blocking and imp wr. I dont think any one was theory crafting our line up with hurl starting and the extra DI. If it cost us a back up imp id guess jeffcoat or poop.

The difference between harris to start vs to finish the season is gigantic. Before, i could buy him being the best in the league. over all with the second half, not top 2 or close to it.

I have and pay for netflix thats all i pay for though.

Ive got a minix player as well as a roku and swear by them. Though i also stream from my pc a lot as well. BCS is fantastic and only gets better. No bad story lines and soo many great supporting characters and roles.

Or of our offense could make use of a rotational piece like him. Packages with harris in the slot, and flanders for harris sub packs etc. But we saw last year plop really doesnt do that. With harris, mcduffie etc.

Odds work on who will get bets not who will win. IE sask is allways inflated because there is no lack of rider fans who think they go 18-0 and win the GC every year. RBs 3rd is a freaking joke in the power rankings. No team is the east is ahead of us, edm, cal, or bc.

Yeah i watched it too, love that series. Didnt know the actor who plays nacho is canadian, thats cool. Idk how long the series can go on for. Maybe if they run into the saul POV of breaking bad they could extend it. But other wise i see 1 maybe 2 more seasons.

hes still young enough (28) but has seen 47 games. Hes played multiple positions on the line, and most importantly has the right pass port. How many NI ol are available under 30 with close to 50 games? May not have a ton of value, but certainly has some value. Never under estimate what desperate team will give up for a prayer. (willy)

yeah anwar stewart comes to mind. Tom canada rocked 44, wonder if poop could use 22.

lets hope so any way.

I think the offense is boring and safe, more then nichols FWIW. Nichols strength isnt the deep ball by any means, but he doesnt often throw the deep ball in a spot that is prone to a pick.

play off performance is only important if you make the play offs. Its no secret nichols plays his best ball in crunch time. But if we dont make it to crunch time thats the problem. weve also seen guys look really good in pre season and be hot garbage in the regular season. Nichols isnt hot garbage by any means though.

i wonder how many franchises have less then he had. I know of one for sure.

Yeah if there was a time when it existed i wasnt alive. I remember guys in the 90s being poached, even remember dave ritchie poached guys late in the season from rivals we expected to face in the play offs. He did it a couple times. Was some claims it was for play book spying, i remember us doing it to some one, maybe buono and him doing it right back right away. The league is too small to black ball GMs / trading partners.

yeah I know the league couldnt. I tend to think the PA takes what the league offers. But they would certainly deserve some thing for that concession.

Trying to think of a qb who has come back from being shell shocked like that, and cant come up with a single one. Mentality and toughness plays such a huge part of being an effective qb. Just makes me sad to have lost him. We need good media types in wpg. And especially in the cfl. idk if 2015 was the down fall and 2016 was the icing or if the start to 2016 was the death blow. I tend to think if we started with our A team on the ol things for him would have been different. But while things would have been no question better, he may have allready been too damaged at that point to reach his previous high water mark.

Id like to see rookies un claimable off the PR. Both imp and ni. Better for the league and the game if players who need that time to develop get it. After the rookie year there should be a compensatory draft pick for snatching off some one elses pr. Or neg lister. Also, itd be nice if rookie NIs didnt count against the PR. The league needs more then any thing, to develop NI talent. Being able to keep guys like butcher around for a year and season them a bit would only help.

I feel sick. I might need to hurl...

yeah we only need to be under the max at this point, and with the IR to shake out yet and the bye week we may not know entirely how it will be set up till the day before our first game.

QFT. The early days of khari with dave mudge etc was a good line. But I think this OL is the best weve had since idk maybe our last GC?

yeah when they didnt play him the 2nd game of the pre season i think the writing was on the wall. Fajardo takes one big step forward. I wonder if willy goes back to sask...

Ya. Glenn can beat you if u give him time and weapons. They have weapons. Pressured glenn is prone to bad decisions, on top of injury concerns and that bad ol. Cover 0 all day. With calgay up after sask we really gotta come out flyin n establish our self against the riders. Id say glenn lasts under 4 games before hes hurt.

Stafford to edm.
