Peak Streveler. Ed Gainey bit so hard on that big exaggerated step forward and then gets outrun to the endzone by a backup RB. And Matty with a classic call to top it all off. -

I have honestly little interest in going by myself. Like I said maybe the weekend with the kid but this plus almost 30 got me thinking the cabin might be better the day. -

Someone here lives in Thompson, I think Tracker, maybe? If he does, I can see why he doesn't drive to practice after work. You don't have to go to practice to be a fan. Yeah it can be boring at times when the coaches are inserting new plays & eveyrone is in a huddle looking up to the sky at a piece of paper held up for the players by a coach yelling instructions. -

No issue with Schoen on IR to start. I’d rather he not reinjure himself in useless training camp. He knows the playbook. also gives opportunity for other guys to step up and make an impression like he did so no problem there. It’s not like RW JR is a sure thing. Need some receivers to step up cuz maybe there’s an opening or 2. -

I remain a firm believer that if Streveler was healthy and allowed to replace Collaros last Grey Cup game, we would have won handily. -

so peruse this and tell me what you see says guy cant throw or run an actual offense....from 3 min mark through to the 4:30 mark shows ability to make throws in pocket with heat in his face and drop nice balls from a roll out/sprint.....and many of those runs were from a escape from pocket or a designed play Not bashing up the gut....and teams had tpo respect it...the 5:37 mark in particular..pocket collapsed but teams had to respect the reciever routes and he has ability to bust straight up gut and gouge the defence for a 30+ yard score...and in the first yr there was many like that...as well as his runs outside....when teams didnt basically have a run telegraphed to them with the stupidity we put him thru ;last yr I recall too in MTL at game I was at him dropping a 50+ yrd dime on Simonese down the rail from pocket in our endzone as well....dude has ability if allowed to actually play as a traditional QB....and he actually a more polished and refined passer now...he's evolved his technique and mechanics....4+ yrs in the NFL will help with that A guy who showed he can excel and knows the CFL game...and then 4 yrs getting better in the NFL to come back....foolish to not turn him loose as a QB -

yeah...should come in and give us more than Hansen did at his best right from the get go...Hansen was as raw as raw could be....Physicality and athleticism and willingness to work and learn got him to where he became a real good rotation guy and demon on teams Bailey is coming in with 5 yrs of the best traiing and experience you can get outside of pro...he will be doing stuff defensively day one that Hansen had to learn as a newbie.. the dime he dropped into JA in the banjo bowl baiting guys into biting on a QB draw....Tha game alone was a good synopsis of what he can do playing QB...Making throws...running where it opened up along with designed runs....and was a crusie to victory...set him up to succeed...and the player he is...grit..heart...smarts and leadership traits and guys willing to ball out for him...I wouldnt be worried about success -

Schenn be slow AF so no problem with miller and fleury who played well together. Fleury in my opinion was an unsung hero in game 7. Lines appear optimized. -

Think he lives there, might've been a rookie camp flyer. Mightve been out of shape or who knows what. Too bad, I love his combination of athleticism, skill, and grit. -

Yep, he showed out some great tosses when he wasn't confined to some wildcat trash system. When I think strevy, I still think about some of the frozen rope deep balls he threw in college. By NFL standards, he is an elite level combination of arm talent and athleticism. If he didn't have the arm to make every throw on the field, he never would've been more than a TC invite. Nfl teams are not sitting on guys who cant connect on the deep ball, especially none draft picks. Look how long rourke was down there. He has every single physical attribute you could hope for, and a great head on his shoulders. Strevy lasted way longer because he not only had the talent, but the ability to fulfill that talent, and hof level leadership. We have never seen strevy in a good situation to succeed up here. And despite that, he has overachieved and made tremendous contribution for us. Unleash the guy, and then judge him. -

Honestly, our edge play was so bad last year, and he's guaranteed to be replacement level at worst. Yep. The NL is the premium blue-chip guys you wait on for 2-5 years. It's the first and second round picks equivalent of Imps. We considered him a premium blue chip imp, then traded up giving up probably our 2nd best Canadian dl, to pick him 2nd over all in the global draft. Expectations should be Hansen but more polished in the pass rush. Now hansen excelled a lot based on his insane work ethic and willingness to sacrifice his body. That isn't at all common, and is incredibly valuable. He isn't likely to be the same guy as hansen, but should provide the same or more value. -

There's no guarantees with any player, neg list or not. The neg list is a mix bag (just like anything else, whether it's draft or free agency), some guys live up to expectations, some don't and some we never see come north. We may think highly of them but not all players have the same potential/ceiling. A first round draft pick is not viewed the same way a 5th rounder would be even the club thinks high enough of both to select them, but they are not viewed the same. IMO, neg list guys are usually players that teams feel like they could be very successful IF they ever came to the CFL. As for why we didn't sign him as an import? Who says we didn't try? He may have been given advice that getting his global status would be better for him, given that, as far as global players go, he'd be at the top end of talent so his chances of making a team would be greater. -

Bailey is likely better than Jake or Schmekel, so playing him over one of those guys is a bonus. -

couple other teams reached out to him as well....but he was on our neg. Also a 5 yr trained player in the NCAA is far more ready and skilled to play in the CFL in his first yr than a 4 yr CIS kid...so him displacing a bottom end Canadian is a certainty...even a mid level Canadian to be honest and he likely will be a guy who can take defensive reps and not hurt you there too as opposed to being on roster soley for ST's Ws part of reason why letting Lawler go and "banking" on Schoen even being ready...let alone to where he was at before injury was a big risk ...If we truly wanted to keep Lawler we could have....there are several salaries on our roster we could have expelled and moved money that we wouldmt have missed in the least...My feeling is tho they airing on the side of caution....which in itself again reeks of country club TC attitude ...again.....
