He was on pace for a career year but the last few weeks derailed that (0 yards against Ottawa in week 16 and then only 5 against Edmonton in week 19). Had he stayed healthy and put up some good numbers the last couple weeks (questionable with this offense) he might have been in the conversation but yeah not the MOP for me.

So it should be Rourke against Bo for MOP.

I might have gone Demski over Brady but Brady is very deserving.

I don't think this is any kind of hot take... We have no business being in the running for any individual awards, aside from Vavals 2....

IMO Vavel is the only one who is going to win a prize.

yeah...if he had any remote shot....he'd been at least brought in for a workout.....but nadda So basically this yr he has earned camp per diem....and then a whole lot of nothing...and isn't developing a bit at home...or wherever he is not being in the Bomber's facility learning and practicing....quite the waste of a season for sure

This is the nominations for the year end awards 'Lifetime achievement award' because... who else on you gonna pick on the line this year. I don't think anyone is going to argue that Bryant has any business being in any Most Outstanding Lineman discussion this year Brady is the right pick here. Leading the league in Yards from Scrimmage despite missing 2 full games and all but a single drive in another. Demski is a nice sentimental pick but just barely broke 1000 yards on the season

Ah yes you are right! What’s the players vote one? “Voting was conducted by four local members of the Football Reporters of Canada (FRC) as well as the local team’s head coach.”

Is this not the local reporters vote?

This is the players vote. I think you’re thinking of “all cfl team” that is voted for by fans Not surprised for Vaval! Fantastic year. I think the nfl will be calling again. I think Demski deserved MOP. But I suppose how do you give him MOP but not MOC?

Big Stan with the lifetime achievement award. Kind of surprised Holm got the defensive nom, voters always seem to love stats and Jones has a ton of tackles... I also laugh everytime I see the PFF article on 3downNation and see Willie's ridiculous 99.0 score way at the top of the list. I think Vaval has a good shot to make it out of the the West in both categories, but that will be the only Bomber there. Im suprised that Alexander got the MOP nom for the Als starting for only 7 games... that must be some kind of record, he's not even eligible for the passing leaders.

Bomber award nominees have been announced: Most Outstanding Player: running back Brady Oliveira Most Outstanding Canadian Player: running back Brady Oliveira Most Outstanding Defensive Player: defensive back Evan Holm Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman: left tackle Stanley Bryant Most Outstanding Special Teams Player: kick returner Trey Vaval* Most Outstanding Rookie: kick returner/defensive back Trey Vaval* *Indicates unanimous selection

That may be true but we're better served in him not being limited to any specific role and removing Parker or Houston to get him on the AR. Vaval is more likely to fill an in game injury at CB than Griffin IMO. That's not a bad thing or a knock, just a recognition of his versatility. Yes I'd remove Ayers to get him on but O'Shea won't. It might be moot because Woods is nicked and might not play this week.

Because we don’t want to jinx it. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Lost in this solid start for the Jets is they’re doing it without 3 key players. It’s pretty impressive, but doesn’t seem to be getting much acknowledgment.

Given the sheer number of injuries at the QB position in the NFL this season if he had *any* shot at a roster (PR or otherwise) it likely would have already come. I'll never begrudge *any* athlete who chooses to chase a dream or maximize their earning potential but (selfishly), hope he and his team read the writing on the wall sooner than later.

I thought it was Go Fish? I can imagine the game between the coaches: MOS -> HOGAN: Do you have any offensive game plans? HOGAN: GO FISH! HOGAN->YOUNGER: Do you know how to stop 2nd and long? YOUNGER: GO FISH! YOUNGER -> MOS: Why do you force me to play Jake Thomas? MOS: GO FISH!

I'm a fan of Seattle sports teams losing

Said no hardcore Jet fan ever.

I'm rolling with Elgersma over Dru at this point. Dru has shown two things in Ott. He can't stay healthy (some on bad hits, some on no hits) and he throws untimely interceptions. I know...neither were a problem when he was here and conveniently had the best Oline and stellar receiver running backs etc. I'm betting potential with Elgersma.

A Dru Brown is a Dru Brown, but an Elgersma could be anything! He could even be a Dru Brown! You know how much we've wanted one of those!

Elgersma needs to come up here next year. That said, I'd trade his rights for Dru.

sigh.........Family Channel and the other Wildbrain channels signed off overnight I thought for sure we were going to have one more day (they said the final broadcast day was October 22nd)

Nah, he'll probably spend another year searching for his NFL dream that will never happen. But he gets paid for it,

Maybe some team was telling his camp something that didn't come to fruition... you would think being on a CFL roster and practicing week-to-week then entering back into the window would be preferable for a CIS guy rather than sitting around for a season working out by himself but who knows. Obviously baseless speculation, but something smells with Brown being shut down early in Ottawa. I wonder if they enter into a full rebuild if he could be pried out and the rights to Elgersma be the piece... would the Bombers never do that in a million years thinking they have the next Rourke? Would the Redblacks jump at the chance thinking they'd have the next Rourke?
