Naylors post was about yards given up and gained not points

Great news. I'd be okay resting him for another week plus the bye, what with a huge game coming up on the 25th.

And we’ve played more games than any other team. Including 2 more games than cal bc and tor have played. We’ve also only played edm once and aren’t a team that often wins by a blow out. A dominant bomber win can be a win by less than 14 points. 

2nd most tds scored 2nd fewest given up too.  Best plus minus in turn overs too. 
 

plus great teams play this year. It’s no smoke and mirrors job.

Which is a stupid metric that the media and fans fawn over and the coaches, players, and anyone who has a clue doesn't give a fig about. There is only one stat that matters at the end of any game, how many points surrendered and how many points scored. It is the bottom line. The rest is all white noise.

If he's healthy let him play. My opinion is you don't hold a healthy, productive player out until you clinch 1st.

Agreed. I just don't understand what Tburgs point was....?

I think he was just pointing out that we do not have the lowest points against overall with more games played. Not sure why he felt compelled to say it though, since our PPGA is the best in the league. Probably because that's a stat that illustrates we are better than the Lions.

Thought I'd pull out one more number:

9-0

We are. I wasn’t wrong. We give up fewer points than anybody.

They can say it all the live long day. It could even be accurate, I wouldn’t care. Better than being the best 4-4 team ever.

He’s cherry picking stats to rationalize being contrarian.

Question about the shithole city about 6 hours west: What street is the bar strip on? It's been a few years and we're thinking of making an appearance this year for the LDC. Dewdney if I recall correctly??

[Jpan85]

You would be correct

From CFL.CA: Points Against: BC 135, Calgary 150, Winnipeg 162. Where are you getting that we give up fewer points than anybody?

We have played 2 more games than both of those teams.

This has been explained a few times already.

After 7 games played BC has given up 135 points.  After 7 games the Bombers had given up 114 points. It's not a hard concept to grasp.

If only we could average out the amount of points given up per game since we have an unbalanced number of games played… 

oh wait we can and we have given up the fewest points per game in the league! We’ve given up 18 points per game bc has give up 18.4 and Calgary 21.4!

Averages! Never would have thought to use averages. Interesting concept - AVERAGES.

Pretty 'mean' bunch we have here.
