Re: CFL Plus/Preseason Live

One of the longest CFL Pre-season "telecasts" in recent memory. The game was delayed at the start and then at half time while weather moved in and lightning was nearby.... Since they are using the stadium feed and the radio broadcast combination, you had the strange listening experience of...

Re: Joe Kapp Dies at Age 85

Alas. If only Joe could have hit Angelo Mosca harder. Willie Fleming is still alive and lives here in the Cleveland area. At one of the pre-gam STH events when Willie and Joe came to town , I had a chance to thank Joe for his takedown of Mosca in support of Willie. He just shook his head and said t...

However everything else in their QB deployment pointed to Dru Brown being next man up in the event Collaros suffered an injury.
Dru Brown looked pretty good when he played against the Lions late last year. I suspect Prukop accurately read the writing on the wall.

Unless they opt to dump Davis I suspect it is Evans and Davis competing for #2 with Davis staying as the short yardage guy win or lose the #2 battle.
Perhaps you are right, but would that not mean dressing 3 QB's???

Re: Argofans offline?

In a bit of a surprising move Mcleod Bethel-Thompson signed in the USFL for family and football reasons in a lengthy letter to CFL fans: Now on to 2023. What is the hardest part of playing football? The time you sacrifice with loved ones. My amazing partner Chinaka, daughter Aziza, and my whole fam...

Re: Superbowl

Realize the intent was to use as much time as possible. Would have been interesting and alot of second guessing if they miss the field goal. Lots of ways it could go wrong. If the Chiefs score and kick a PAT (the most likely scenario), there would be enough time for the Eagles to go down the field ...

Re: Bryan Burnham retires

It has been a real pleasure to watch Bryan make those remarkable and exceptional catches look like "expected" catches. As said by others, he exemplifies what being a 'team guy" really means.

Best wishes in your new life chapter.

Re: 2022-23 NFL/Seahawks Season Thread

I hope the change of scenery will be good for Claypool and think it will be. In Chicago, he will have a QB throwing to him that has a few years of experience and a real good arm. In Pittsburgh, he had neither.

Re: WSF Calgary vs BC Nov 6

Club is going to need the "dome field advantage" (a loud, boisterous crowd) that's going to make it difficult for Maier and the offense to hear the snap count. Remember, several Stampeders boldly told Farhan several weeks ago they would prefer to play in B.C. Place, maybe not realizing Va...

Re: 2022 CFL Week 19

What a terrific ending to a game that was handed to the Stamps when Lemon recovered a fumble and the Stamps pushed it in for a TD. But TiCats came back with some big catches by White with 11 seconds left. I had pretty well thought the Stamps would take the win..... sure am glad I stuck with the game...

Re: 2022 CFL Week 18

I think the only HC at risk is Craig Dickinson. Montreal will be hiring; Ottawa will be hiring; Toronto will give Dinwoodie another year, especially if they get to the Grey Cup; Hamilton already has Jones on staff if they make a change (doubtful). Other than Riders, I don't see changes in HC in the ...

Re: Lions at Argos Oct. 8, 2022

The sudden change in defensive play-calling at the end of the game was the biggest reason for the loss. A week after being repeatedly called out for sticking with a “bend-but-don’t-break” top-down zone scheme, Ryan Phillips blitzed on all 3 plays on the Argos’ 70-yard drive for the game-winning tou...
