CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread

[Arnold_Palmer]

So I’m a huge stats guy and what the CFL has done in regards to checking on stats, is absolutely bush league, it’s an absolute joke. Downloading PDF’s to see game stats? What other “professional” league runs things like this?

I’m incredibly upset.

If it’s not ready to be made public. Don’t mess with the existing system. The season is 6 months long, you have half the year to figure it out.

Yup, its an absolute joke. Theyre going to lose tons of web traffic as ive been going to TSN to get my stats, and im sure im not alone. Just a huge blunder and cluster *uck on their part. Unreal.

Whatever "genius" came up with this stat restructuring plan should be forced to eat a s**t sandwich.

What is the Argos plan at runningback?  Is Andrew Harris expected to get half of the touches?

Just roll with the hot hand?

[JuranBoldenRules]

Liegghio to Hamilton.  A year early. 

[rebusrankin]

Interesting signing by Hamilton. Thought their kicker was decent last week and last year.

How long is Harris gonna be healthy for any way probably doesn’t matter till the play offs. Till then I expect them to ride who ever is hot and run some two back set.

I was so hoping he’d go to a western team

[JuranBoldenRules]

Als release a dude that would look nice on our roster over a 7th OL.

Here's hoping. We need another Canadian who can play teams.

He ought to be an impact layer on special teams if nothing else. I remember him as a solid run defender.

Sounds like Small has some issues going on.  Missed all of training camp, was activated for game 1 and has left the team again.  Ticats moved him to the suspended list so Leggs may just be a temporary solution for them.

I've been saying for years, welcome to Randy Ambrosie's CFL 2.0. That he constantly overpromises & under delivers. Well, to you guys who always attacked my scarve wearing Randy Ambrosie criticisms just suck it up complaining about the lack of stats with the season already started. I'm sure Randy & Genius Sports will come up with something by mid season or Thanksgiving.

Reality check, this is just typical of Randy's stewardship when it comes to how this league is run.

Seth Small is good young FG kicker, but he's an Import and he doesn't handle punting.

Wonder what happened with this new deal for CFL stats.  Delays getting this new system up?

Double E need a win bad. I’m taking them in an upset today. If they get thrashed Jones cliches become less tolerable.

[Mike]

I’d really like to see us sign Harelimana

[Booch]

Same

[ShyGuy]

Geez I'm not sure entirely whats going on but the Bombers are trying singlehandedly to keep the league scoring average up.

If my Math is correct, when the Bombers play there is an average of 74 points in the game.

If the Bombers aren't playing it goes all the way down to 35.
