"Streveler the NFL QB"??? What does that have to do with anything?

Challenged by statistics are we?

For what it's worth, considering the teams they played for were not evenly matched in talent, Crum outperformed in almost every category.

He remains a backup that can win the occasional game, as a future starter we'd be lucky if that translated into a .500 record, that is if he could remain healthy. Coming out of the current era of success, that's not going to be good enough. His demonstrated QB skill level falls somewhat below that of Dustin Crum.

It's not worth wasting another year to find out if he can or can't, with Zach's time left at the helm expiring quickly. Time to put Strev's "what ifs" away in the past memory box and move on.

Still uneasy about the unknown, if the Argo or Als defence are capable of shutting Zach+Brady down, gaining more confidence the defence can handle anything thrown at them.

Strev. was on a one year contract, can't really see any point to re-signing him in the off-season, whatever magic he once had, is gone.

Stumbled upon this old game on YouTube from 1963, it features Ron Lancaster and George Reed and is well worth watching through for it's many oddities, one of which is the insane playoff structure the CFL employed back then, the Western team would have to win 4 or 5 playoff games to make the GC while the Eastern team only 1.

It's the Boveralls effect.

That would have been Taman/Chamblin regime, Jones refused to pay Dressler his deferred contract amount when he chose to come back to the Riders from his NFL stint instead of signing with the Argos for much more.

This, even if Mace becomes a great HC, he doesn't have the super competent people needed above him in the organization to make it a top regime. Just recall how many years they've relied on picking up league retreads instead of finding their own players. At least for the short time John Murphy was there they had a decent influx of new players recruited.

Agree, this scheme allows the Safety and MLB to play more traditional roles, which allows them to focus on their primary responsibilities and simplifies the positional play when others have to step in for them.

Willy needs help, nobody has stepped up to replace Jeffcoat who was a handful to contend with on every play, the pass rush has become a secondary function.

Probably just here for a quick look-see and may get invited back for TC next year.

Dane Evans was the more dangerous QB of the two when he got hot, like a super-charged Trevor Harris. Unfortunately he couldn't handle the mental stress football continually throws at the QB, he seemed happiest standing on the sidelines holding a clipboard.

Anyone else suspect BLM has been dipping into stem cell therapy? His return to form has been close to remarkable.

While you've been persistently complaining about Kramdi throughout this season, he's been busy becoming a team leader on defence and working his way into all-star contention. I guess he's this year's version of Evan Holm.

Not Zach, nor Lawler, nor nobody else is going to accept less pay if they keep winning and make it to the GC game. How would Walters justify offering them less for doing their jobs to the standard they agreed to? If they missed the playoffs, he might have a legitimate case. As for Lawler, last night was likely his peak career performance, not to be counted on or repeated next week or on any other date going forward. The stars aligned perfectly for a spectacular one night show of highwire thrills, I doubt he ever has another game were fortune shines as brightly upon him as it did last night, and I hope both he and Zach are aware of that. Some very good things only happen once, Matt Dunigan knows.

I wouldn't have any concern in a regular season game but neither stands much of a chance in the playoffs against a heightened level of competition and tougher defensive play they will face. Even with Zach pushing an anemic offence it's questionable how far they could advance this season. If Collaros goes down, might as well wave the white flag, crack another bottle, and ride it on out.

Has the same look of keen perception, just before he stumbles over a prone lineman.

What difference will it make, you want to tarnish this season with memories of Dolegala getting blown up in the playoffs? Might as well dress him up in a giraffe costume to entertain the drunks....on second thought, we could pin the whole rotten season and everything bad that was, directly to his hide!

Biggie looks like an action hero!

BC really blew it, with the Bomber bad start they had the chance to run away with first place and set themselves up well for a GC run at home, instead they stumbled and fell on their faces. Rourke, no Rourke, made no difference.
