Your missing the point ....teams are targeting is this player going to stick in the NFL ?and drafting based on that assumption. To the point that players drop down in the draft if their is a concern. Pointing out after the fact doesn't help the teams at the draft. There is more and more Cdns sticking in the NFL....and how do we compete as a league is the reality.

This is a least a step in the right direction.....gotta do something.What's the point of rating the top 10 if half stick in the NFL?

Yes just saw on Twitter our goals against per game has gone up since the start of the year.... from less than 3 per game to well over 3.....yea that's cause Myers has been out the whole year??? well sign him to an extension Chevy .....PM has done wonders the last 2 years......the Jets fans can wait a couple more years to get to the playoffs no problem...??

Well as usual people see what they want to ,where is it mentioned less Cdn talent ? Just less that HAVE to start. If we guarantee so much of the roster is Cdn it's still mostly cdn players on it? Just looking at ways to give teams in the CFL the ability to survive....how can these teams survive when the Draft has become a total crap shoot between if these players can play or who you lose to the NFL?

I don't understand this...his assistants are under Maurice's direction...really what difference would it make...never heard of a great HC who was saddled with assistants that affected his coaching ability.

Me too is why I suggested keeping the ratio as an overall roster management tool not a guaranteed starting ratio tool for Cdns...we still have to have Canadian players and would still benefit if they could start.. just wouldn't guarantee that they have to start.

Unfortunately how many homegrown players stay with the same team anymore? We draft ,develop then they usually take off as a free agent for bigger bucks...it's almost like we guarantee a certain amont of Cdn players will get the big bucks (relatively speaking) plus the NFL is now competing in the draft for the best Cdn something is gotta give....

No still need the ratio just referring to starting cdns....why not just have a certain number of cdns on the roster instead...

It will come down to.....how many non playoff years can he last?

No but they don't need to be coddled ethier..we have come a long way to competing with American players right from University it's time to rethink our game that was based in another Era..

Unfortunately I agree with you and also that he will probably resign Maurice ...and still be safe....?

You know it's really time the CFL looks at reducing the required amount of Cdn who have to start...why do they have to start? Make so many that have to be on the roster instead,cause year after year CDN players are holding CFL teams to scrambling in the draft and having to pay big bucks for key positions in free agency...why should the CFL be required to start Cdn players when they have to now compete with the NFL who have no restrictions and make billions of bucks? Times are a changing, the CFL to survive needs to change too imo.

Yeah well unfortunately Buff hasn't been great this year at all and Enstrom was brutal this game (Maurice kept putting him out there though) and it hasn't been a great year for him ethier... Chevy should stick if he fires Maurice and hires a great coach (Hitchcock?) If not I hope he goes down in flames with Maurice...if he resigns Maurice to an extension after this year he better be ready to walk the plank with him if the ship goes down.

We are as bad defensely as we were starting the year.. no improvement...that rests with whom? Cheveldayoff your ass and fire this guy already....man we suck at home...??

Oh yeah Maurice throw Hellebuyck under the bus for brutal play from our d......how long do we blame the players for a poor passive defensive schemes...the points on the opposition have all day to shoot even on 5 on 5....wow ..and we are gonna reward this guy with an extension...hopefully this proves that the so called genius of Cheveldayoff is definitely in question... time to clean house all around maybe...

Uhhh no the Ottawa player jammed Hellenbuyck into the net....should not of even been reviewed....

I just don't know how they can sell an extension for PM now. They would need to do something in the off-season to justify that this isn't PM's fault...who would take Buff at 7.5 a season?

Well if we are not at least considering Julien or Hitchcock we are truly in bad shape...coaches that have won a cup.

Well if there was any doubt...Brady is the best NFL Qb of all time....wonder if he retires now. What a second half...wow.

Hmmm you may have to become a Riders fan in the off-season...?

So Copp goes down and Burmi sticks around....sigh I know we could lose Burmi but really does anyone give a ****?

Hmmm I was gonna guess Quick but Price looks like the right dude...?

I just wonder what message it says to other players when a player that brings nothing to a team (Burmi) keeps playing....?

IDK this is tough because I have been a fan of Maurice since he got here but.....I have noticed that he gets stuck on players (Burmi,Thornburn,Stuart) no matter what they bring to the team even had all 3 on the pk today! The guy has been barely over 500 in his career and only been to the Stanley Cup final I think over 10 years ago. Perhaps we need to move on its tough because he is a great guy and a good coach just wonder is he a great coach?

I like De Leo....now if we can only get rid of Burmi the coaches favorite all would be good....??
