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%.

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.

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.

totally buy that. the pressure gambling revenue has put on pro sports is crazy

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.

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.

trey vaval

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

I’d be surprised if he was back and ready for this year. He would be a phenomena fit though.

I think both were a problem. Same was moxey is a problem. And kelly. I’m sure kramdi will go back to S as he seems almost ready. Don’t love it. But i also wouldn’t mess with smith at sam. I’d rather put kyrie or an athletic guy at S. Also, i’d put vaval in the nickle pack as the second S if we want to run that cover 2. Vaval is great at reading the ball in the air, crazy dynamic and physical. he’s been much better this year than last when pressed into duty as well. He would really give teams some thing to worry about in the secondary

no joke. Alexander is taking on maas’ old personality. We coached and played to win. That’s a huge improvement. We acted as though the season was on the line, and it was. They pulled it out against all odds, which is fantastic. Mos taking the ball again to start instead of playing for 4th q wind, challenging the first play, we haven’t seen mos like this since before the 19 gc win. I give him props for that for sure. Idk if it will change any ones fortunes or not, but i am really glad that this team and the mafia aren’t going to go gentle into that good night. To me, that looked like paddy sending a message to the rest of this team and the league. I’ll take it too. Give me penalties of aggression and edgy play over soft, indecisive football any day. we did a much better job of using nield. We gotta let the few big guys we have do big guy stuff. Rather than tossing 50/50 balls to the jv size guys mtl is like that though. Also, with a huge hole at S it makes limiting big plays harder. We also blitzed with fewer guys but more frequency which is the risk you run.

If we can maintain this level of urgency, sure. But any thing can happen game to game in the cfl. We still made some of the same mistakes, poorly managed the roster, and didn’t execute basics well (like tackling) Idk if we are this good and the first half of edmonton game good, or if teams just got caught in trap games against us. We will see in the next two weeks though. If we split those games we are in a drastically better position then i would’ve thought possible.

I agree. I don’t think kramdi is a premier starting canadian, but most teams start a guy like that at S over the past few years. more so, those snaps are going to lbers and dl now. But kramdi is solid, he’d be much better off at wil

3rd quarter is gonna be a mess. Despite a lot of good on off in the first half, 6 carries for brady is bad. vs 8 for perkins is stupid. Ball security is awful. Discipline and tackling are also awful.

second half adjustment/effort and every little play that matters

very little development across the board. I agree nield didn’t score, but i think that was helmet to helmet, but not intentionally.

atleast not the kicking part.

kelly is better in coverage, kramdi is worlds better tacking and has a nose for the ball and big plays. tremendous in the box too. Kelly is soft. Both have uses both are limited but kelly much more so. helmet to helmet

give your self the chance to play action and take a shot too

daniels football iq is either single digits or in the negative
