truly and despite the disruption and pressure, no sight of the quick paced screen packs we used last week

yep, and with a head for coverage, that’s extremely rare. And zach steps into the pressure instead of getting rid of it

2026 CFL Around The League (Not Bombers Specific)
The league is facing its largest influx of revenue in modern history next year. I'm not enthused about the rule changes, but they are trying stuff. So no, I'd say its too soon to pack it in.

that’s a slight improvement in trend, that is not a positive data set. 14% up from 11, mlb is 30% just from 16-19. The pitch clock changes are polled at 80% chance they’d watch in the same demo as the cfls 14%.

2026 CFL Around The League (Not Bombers Specific)
Every couple of years we see data sets released on cfl target demo the bombers do have a better grip on a younger market with the rum hut but league wide it is a real problem. you also see this across football right now. From grass roots to nfl the fan base has aged and they are struggling to compete with the nba, mlb, soccer etc 3DownNationRecent poll indicates two positive demographic trends for...A new poll from Probe Research may have focused on the CFL’s incoming rule changes, but it indicated two encouraging demographic trends in the process.

2026 CFL Around The League (Not Bombers Specific)
can’t even compete with the power 4 divisions in d1 any more on any of those points. The cfl is in front of the american association that the gold eyes play in and behind the frontier league. behind mls and wnba. The cfl has fallen far, far behind and the demographic is ancient. The combination of fan base age and being on the fringe of the 2nd tier of sports leagues is extremely dangerous.

Productive, talented, athletic, not a role player. He had a decent chance to stick longer in the nfl tbh. We picked a low-ceiling lunchbox guy who we knew would be here.

But is he a $&^# kicking blocker?! Gonna be sad to watch him and the als do what we have tried do, but drastically better. Is that 15 including the AIchat bot of nasty nate? Idk if Cline will be up here this year, if he is I don't think he will see the field. Likely a next year guy imo. This could be a huge L for grassroots up here. Sure, it is possible to turn around; some arenas have gone from NBA to NHL many times a month. But it is gonna be a PITA and will likely limit showcase games / lower level championship games, and is yet another sticking point for making the transition from college to pro. I hate the field/upright changes and I hope the CFL changes its mind.

my first thought is, they must really love this guy to trade an imp lber for him.

Yeah, you can always play a guy at the boundary. But I think it is worth while to try each rookie at slot, you never know when a guy will take to it like schoen.

2026 Bombers Season
9.73 RAS out of 10. That is an extremely elite score. He looks like more of a YAC guy than a downfield target. Though he should be fully capable of playing downfield. Hands look really good. He does not look 4.3 fast on the field, but he is smooth with good speed and acceleration. Some of that could be the offence he ran. It would be very interesting to see what he could do up here with all the room on the field, maybe even in the slot with the waggle.

Every team that doesn't have a Kenny Lawler desperately wants one. Even this year, kenny lawler isn'y kenny lawler. But that type of fit would fix an awful lot in a heartbeat. A guy like Kahmann, McInnis, Coxie, or Kiondre Smith would be massive. Even giving up White for one of those guys would be massive. I hate what we are doing with Clercius. Gonna watch another talented Canadian WR turn to ash in a Bomber uni. And for silly reasons. If he and zach/the staff had an issue, deal with it. That's 90% of coaching. It's insane that we haven't given Singer a single game yet. The combined YTD stats for the 5th starting WR are 188 yards on 30 targets, with 21 catches. 88 YAC, 6.2 yards per attempt / 8.9 YPC, which is 17 yards per game on 2.7 attempts per game. If we started a 6th OL and handed the ball to Brady an extra 2-3 times, we would get handily more than that.

Not even just that, but the top 3 all have the same skill set and play basically the same way. Its kind of funny, white has 12 more targets than demski and wilson has 9 more than white. But they have 50, 51 and 54 catches, respectively. This puts them at just under 80% completion, just over 70% completion, and 60% completion rate, respectively. We could end up with all 3 guys passing 1k, or none of them hitting that mark. Wilson has struggled much of the year with squeezing the ball, but has been force-fed the most attempts. White has done a bang-up job of making contested catches despite his size. He isn't Dressler, but he's willing to put his body on the line. If we used Clercius and Nield in those contested spots more, I think everyone would be better off.

looks like logan taylor may make the chargers pr, great for him. Manu is probably gonna be on the none football injury list. Cline was cut but will probably poke around for a pr spot for a while
