Ken Jennings and Matt Damon’s Big Win Fuels Best ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?’ Ratings in Five Years https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/matt-damon-who-wants-to-be-a-millionaire-win-ratings-1236476995/

Vaval has been among the league leaders in kr and pr average actually. Productivity hasn’t really been the issue.

My 3 Stars (Champs): 1) Special Teams: the difference in the game, IMO. They're playing with more discipline now although that illegal formation penalty on Castillo's last FG could have been costly. Vaval is improving but has got to be reminded about protecting the ball (shift from one arm to the other as required). And, I like his smooth stride and sneaky good acceleration and speed. Although he shanked one, Sheehan is punting better. That's a couple of illegal kick-offs by Castillo this season. Still like his leg though. Although the difference last night, there is still room for improvement with STs. Oh yeah, what the heck was Cooley even doing on the roster? 2) The D-Line: They have dramatically improved since there have been more rotations. Jefferson looked like he was in his prime last night. And, where has Person been all this time. I watched Thomas closely when the cameras made it possible and I still don't get the coach's infatuation with him. 3) Nick Demski: The guy attempts to do it all and for the most part does. He's a gamer. He's even protecting the ball better this season. (He should have a little chat with Vaval.) However, being the go to guy, he's taking a pounding out there. Can he last the season? My 3 No-Stars (Chumps): Jason Hogan, Jason Hogan and Jason Hogan: If they haven't already, the offensive assistants should ask for a meeting with O'Shea. The TV took a verbal assault from me last night at some (most?) of his play calling. Aside from that stupid pass that was INT'd in the end zone, can anyone explain to me why on those plays where Streveler handed to Oliveira off-tackle, he stayed parallel to him instead of going wide. (One of the pxp guys commented that Streveler was throwing blocks for Oliveira on those plays. Really? Right, get another QB injured.) There was literally no option for Streveler to pull it and attempt to scoot around the end. My Honourable Mentions: Sterns (good), Streveler (bad).

We also dressed Cobb not only to not use him on O, but chose to use Cooley as the 2nd kr instead of him. Just the best roster management possible.

Vaval.................where was all of this return talent 5 games ago...Credit to the kid....looks like he's figuring it out Jefferson...........could be the no 1 choice as well.....one heckuva game for Willie....nightmare for Arbuckle Demski......just keeps on tickin' ....and ever ready honourable mention to Jones who made a nice pic and lifted the D with his play

Ya... Reggie White, Dillon Mitchell, Demski, Sterns.... At least on paper, that seems a hell of a lot better than what we're fielding. Tho I still think the OL needs to be fixed before we can properly judge the rest of it.

Yeah i just don't understand why they would dress Cooley and never use him on offense and then go ahead and dress 3 Canadian receivers because reasons... if Mitchell is a guy they feel they can't play then drop him.and bring in some guys who might be able to do something useful on a roster that needs help offensively. Christ apologize to white and bring him back.

1. Willy ,just a monster when hes utilized correctly. 2. D Line ,made Arbuckles life miserable. 3. Vaval. Kids legit. HH. Demski.

Eli in at centre.

On the same drive we were so conservative we went qb sneak on 2nd and 2, then threw a fade route inside the 10 to our smallest receiver. That’s some crazy business lol

Oh I don’t disagree. There’s obviously something going on there with Mitchell tho. Perhaps personality clashes. Why not release? I feel he will be without ever playing a snap. But prob cuz don’t want to admit they made a mistake. Are the receivers that bad or is it the play calling cuz Wheatfall and Demski have put up numbers. (In individual games) Sterns seems to be a consistent player. Streveler threw 1 pass over 20 yards and it was to Demski so the receivers numbers not gonna be great obviously. While I don’t think Streveler is the answer or Zach for that matter, it’s pretty obvious the OC has no clue. And if you take emotions out of it, outside of 1 game vs Edmonton and 1 half vs BC, our QBs have sucked 1. Willie - best game in years but I think I’ll give Assists to Person Vaughters Adams Lawson also. 2 Vaval- last time a bomber returned 2 kicks in a game was probably Janerion Grants debut probably 3 Demski our only threat on O really HH Sheehan with another good game

That one Bonds play still blows my mind. Bites hard and gets burnt, actually recovers because of a badly thrown ball but instead of looking for the ball decides Coxey needs to wear him as a necklace instead. Just awful football.

We're basically not dressing a full compliment of receivers right now but dressing Cooley to show the world he has no ability to catch kicks and nothing else....while we have a backup Canadian who can do that and more in street clothes on the sideline.

Yeah the deep ball was bad, but the receiver was never open either. That was the definition of trying to force something just because. It may not look normal but I got no issues with strevelers arm or accuracy, but I've got grave concerns about every other part of the offense except RB.

Like: Vaval...coaches patience well rewarded, 2TD returns probably the difference, tonight DL......the most disruptive game, we have seen from this group Streveler.......2 and 0 as the starting QB No like: Hogan........guy should be shipped off to a POW camp. Stupid play call after stupid play call. Bonds......useless, inept....... one man wrecking crew, for opposing teams... GET RID OF HIM!! Receivers........bottom tier of this group, just not good enough.

You have to admit Streveler has pretty wacky throwing mechanics. Have you ever seen him feather a nice screen pass over a defender’s hands? He seems completely incapable of making certain basic throws. Even the one deep ball he threw last night was completely embarrassing. He didn’t give Wheatfall the slightest chance to catch it.

It's not that people think he’s a stud, it's that he's shown some potential and we signed him early in the offseason and our receivers blow. So we want to see what a guy like that can do.

Then why did we pay him like a stud receiver? You keep missing that part of this equation. I don’t think anyone here is clamouring for the use of Dillon Mitchell because we’re all long term members of his fan club. I think most of us are confused as to why we paid 150k annually to a guy who is turning out to be the 9th (at best) receiver on our depth chart.

He put up near that amount in only 9 games as a rookie. The potential is (or at least was) there, he's just never gotten back to that level. Don't know if he'll ever get back to that but we certainly won't know if he doesn't get a chance.

The lat month of the season... the only thing this team can do passing right now is short stuff and streveler does that way better than collaros. Probably because he's always having to throw around defensive linemen or linebackers.

Wheatfall's struggles are married to ZC struggles... if you're a burner who runs deep, dont have much thrown to you when your QB can reliably throw 20 yards or under. Also fun fact: We have not lost when Streveler is our starting QB this year 🤣

Agreed that Streveler did not look like a legit #2 QB, let a lone a starter and his throwing mechanics are odd at the least. The question for me is how in Hell did he last as long in the NFL?

MOS on the pre game was talking about how Corcoran does all the dirty work well, how he's a hard worker etc and I kept thinking that's the MOS MO, Hard working, does the little things guy, talent doesn't always factor in see The Marine. They also say they don't want to move Wheatfall, so can he only play 1 spot. Wheatfall has about 115 yards in the past 4 games so its not like he's lighting it up.

Honestly. Artopoeous in pre season looked like the next guy behind Zach. Has some zip on his throws. I love Strev. He’s the man but 5 years ago is a long long time in sports and he’s not a starting cfl qb. Not even sure he’s a capable backup honestly. If I’m Walters I’m looking for QB help right now.

Gonna assume we are all back to hoping Zach is back next week and Vernon is not?
