Grant made the sideline pass to a standing still receiver into an actually successful play... Normally those got us negative yard

[Tracker]

As a BTW: I have been watching Lawson the past few games, and he is getting better each game. Probably not going to make us forget about Dougie, but he has been solid with a good future here.

Nice bubble screen with two lead blocks.

Definitely well blocked but Grant's acceleration got him past the first tackler after the catch...  It feels like almost every other time we've tried that play the lead tackler snuffed it.

Best thing is Lawson is still only 23, Jake's a grizzled old man at 31.

He has been very good indeed. He’s shown incredible flashes of collapsing the pocket and blowing up plays solo. Tremendous move by the mafia.

31 going on 73. 160 games played over 10 seasons at just 31. It’s a real testimony to his preparedness and work ethic. I remember at one point he didn’t have a contract going into camp and it seemed like he might be passed by. But quickly was a corner stone mos type guy and never been in doubt since.

My favourite part was when he signed late in the off-season… in his initial conversation with reporters he said he was exhausting all his nfl opportunities before coming back to the bombers… he seems like a guy that everyone loves… afaic as long as he’s a productive player… he’ll have a place on our team

Jake's not every down DT - but who really is anymore?

I believe at one time someone claimed that he signs so late to allow the team flexibility to do what they need too. If there is a little extra, he gets it.

True… productive doesn’t necessarily mean every down player… hopefully Jake has a few more good years in him and allows Lawson (and the next new rookie) to carry the torch once he’s gone

Alford: 6 tackles, 2 assists and one interception.

 

[Noeller]

Get paid, DA!!

[bigg jay]

Better clip, with the pick.

How about the announcers completely ignoring the play as it's happening? Unreal interception. 

[17to85]

Good on him. Love to see guys earn success.

Wait, I was told stuff like that never happens in the NFL with their pro broadcasts, only on the bush league TSN. Was that a Suitor overdub?

No one told you that.

But that doesn’t match his narrative… you must be mistaken. 😉

Any ideas if we may be getting pieces back after the bye week? Read the BA article, sounds like he's still got a little ways but isn't too far,Couture?

No word, yet. I'm curious about who we will see at practice next week. 

[JCon]

I believe BAs presence around the team has given us a false sense of his recovery timeline. If memory serves, when he was injured, they expectation was that he would return in fall. I've had October in my head the whole time. 

[Geebrr]

I’m actually expecting us to be down a guy or two. Sometimes it seems like these BYE weeks come and guys realize that they have been ignoring/playing through more serious stuff. 
 

So, If we come back the same as we left I’d be happy.

I'd be happy with Thompson back at safety, wonder if Agudosi comes back around BAs time but I have no clue how bad his leg injury was.

I'm a little doubtful we ever see Agudosi again.

Sounded like a season ender to me and do we bring him back for a third attempt?

As long as he passes the physical I don't see why they wouldn't.
