It actually does feel a lot like a Lyin’ Guy statement…

As for my team, I was on the road to Edmonton for the gold medal game tonight, so I didn’t have to watch a single second. God bless.

If the riders miss the play offs I’m pretty sure dicker gets fired. But do you think he’d get canned if they are the visiting team in a semi final and lose? Riders are due for a rebuild.

With Rourke going down are the Bombers the only fan base that is happy with their QB situation right now? Seems like it's pretty slim pickings for QBs out there.

the rest is varying shades of disappointment imo.

Chungh is pretty awful at this stage in his career...he's got the aggression but not much else.  Otherwise the rest of BC OL is pretty good with 3 imports.

BC's DL is pretty good on pass rush, questionable against run when you have guys like Menard just bull rushing from the edge.

It's okay, you don't need to defend against the run when it gets cold out.

cfl has a shortage of good head coaches

Most are poor at delegating and put too much on their own plate.

Is this a result of the coaching salary cap? Or the massive egos of head coaches? Or is it a lack of good up coming talent?

Ti Cats kicker has no problem kicking a late in the game fg.

Als answer with a game winning fg of their own

[Mark F]

I think Jordan Younger will be getting a head coach offer.

That would be a very tough loss,could see Buck get a shot in a few years. Lots of guys in the waiting for a shot (Kilam,maybe Hall,).

Ed Tait tweet...

desjarlais played 43% of snaps, pats preseason game this week.

I don't think it's the coaching cap.

Look at O'Shea: he does a great job of delegating, which allows him to be more of a motivator / overall team culture HC

[JuranBoldenRules]

Edmonton gets on a little run here and they could be right back in the pack.

Calgary certainly separating from the 1 loss pack.

Riders have to clean house after the season. If they promote Maas, they will get more of the same- he has shown sweet bugger-all as a head coach and not much more an an OC. Even their GM should not be spared. With the dearth of good head coaches and GMs, it is not going to be easy to find a winning combination.

On another front, it looks like the Argos have managed to put together a decent team and even Bethel-Thompson is out-quarterbacking Mitchell who looks very beatable this season. The curtain is descending on a once-great QB in Calgary.

[JuranBoldenRules]

I think Maas and Arbuckle should end up together somehow.

[Mark F]

dickensen bros had a chat about benching the star qb

[Mark F]

bo, team guy, looks pissed by calgary  d pick 6

 

ineptitude bowl.

bit dull.

Toronto somehow found the two running backs with the weirdest stride this side of Will Ford.

No power whatsoever.

[Tracker]

Bethel-Thompson has reverted to his usual form. Maier not much better. The game is rather dull.

Coaching cap is probably why they’re allowed to get away with it - but if you look across the league - the teams who don’t have coaches wearing multiple hats are more successful.

playing that many snaps in the preseason could be a bad sign.

[Fatty Liver]

 

 

Stamps are pretty good at finding running backs.

Ka'Deem Carey wow.

Dedrick Mills wow.

Peyton Logan wow.

Stamps might be keeping the ball on the ground come November.

Logan is a player.

Mitchell was finally benched. When he was the best qb in the CFL a few years ago, he could get away with being an arrogant prick. Now, he's just another washed up has been who is still an arrogant prick. Because of the kind of player he is with a big mouth, I don't think he'll be missed very much once he does retire. He'd be smart to retire after this season. There are plenty of Stamps fans who don't like him.

I think 4 other guards played as many or more.

With the state of qb'ing in the league he'll get 5 offers if Calgary goes with Maier though.

Toronto, Ottawa, montreal, Hamilton, Edmonton, Sask all make sense at the right price.
