Mitchell catches that with his hands and there's no problem there. Let it get to his pads and tip drill.

Or just keep vertical, keep driving. Not going to dance 3-4 guys.

Jesus **** that's how you get cut as a return candidate in a training camp.

Peterson made the mistake of stopping his feet there and going horizontal.

Vaval looks alright. Not getting returnable kicks. Solid catches. Not sure why no flag on that one, Sask guy was 3 yards away when he caught it.

That's one guy ******* up bigly giving that seam.

Or give it to the tailback.

Wrong read.

Are the Sask CB's moving in quick sand?

Reggie White going to get killed running like that.

Because the game situation is different for getting guys out and in? You can take it either way, but I wouldn't avoid kicks just because it's preseason and who cares? The reps have value. Most likely stuff to **** up in a game are guys not being sharp on substitutions for special teams. Like doing it here with the 1's out there for the most part.

Special teams gets rump reps in practice. No issue with dealing with the subs and getting a live rep in a game when it's basically the 1's out there IMO. It's not just for Castillo.

I'm going to be hearing this bumper music tonight when I'm trying to sleep.

Would be nice to have a stream you can watch on a TV instead of having to find a back channel because the CFL website can support a total of 50 people watching the game.

Why not get live reps for the FG battery?

They should stick with a high angle. Can't see **** when they keep switching between the two cameras during the play.

Yeah the WHSFL can get their games broadcast to more people than the CFL without TSN.

Just the link through cfl.ca but kicked off again. 503 error now "max connections reached"

I got a stream but it's just a bunch of CFL players flexing "the game will begin shortly"

Yeah only browser. Best way to stream to a TV is through an Apple device.

Of course CFL.ca 504 timesout when it's time to broadcast the games.

Well the 2019 team was 3-5 with Streveler starting and 4-0 with Collaros starting. So he had some impact. D wasn't getting it done by themselves, they got smacked around pretty bad in majority of games after Nichols went down. Probably don't get to any of the post-19 Grey Cups if you don't host the West Final. Matt Nichols never hosted a West Final. Buck Pierce, Kevin Glenn and Khari Jones hosted 1 East Final each. Collaros has hosted 4. Good to have some perspective. The only comparison that will matter in the end is Dru Brown from 2024 on vs Collaros from 2024 on.

No kidding. I don't think teams ruin a lot of guys. The high level NCAA guys are already running their own show. Most of the decent U Sports guys these days are too. Anyone going to even that level is taking charge of their own development when they are 14-15. They know how to train themselves and their technical abilities are pretty baked in. Nobody at a club level is practicing in a way that's going change that in this era. You're mostly getting set to play games, not playing around with mechanics. People can complain about opportunity but no one with undeniable ability was ever denied at that position. Everyone is dying for consistently average QB play. There's no other position where you get a chance to develop like that in football, other than maybe Canadian OL in this league. We're splitting hairs on guys who really aren't at the level of the guys who are franchise QB's because we maybe saw a flash that made us hope the guy was something he wasn't. I think a lot of teams see some redeeming quality that allows them to overlook severe flaws in potential quarterbacks. Like Alex Brink not being able to pass the ball yet spending like 4 years here as QB in waiting. People would be shocked at how even at pretty high levels coaches are still in awe of guys who are throwers with no passing ability. Like people in our city making a living training QB's and sometimes other football players who get themselves involved in provincial teams and cannot evaluate them at all...even in the scenario of "we play games next month, who of the 4 QB's that we've just repped and worked with for 6 weeks is the best at moving the offense we've installed." Or totally blinded by an athlete who can't pass with any accuracy. Draw up a lot of plays for what you could do off RPO looks but no matter what you draw the guy can't pass well enough to execute anything accurately and consistently. Reads are a huge thing, arguably THE huge thing, get on same page with receivers, do things at speed. Even if you can put it on a spot 70 yards away, doesn't matter if you can't make a decision on time. That was a big Lapo flaw back to the CFL. If a QB can't attack at all 3 levels as a passer they really can't run a good CFL offense. Everything else will simply be adjusted to over a season by other good teams. Sure you can catch someone lacking and have your QB run for 170 yards sometime, but it's not happening every week.

How did Dru Brown develop? 4th string for a year, time share backup with Prukop in 22, then established #2 in 23. Starts 3 games in 3 seasons.

I'd be pretty surprised if Wheatfall made the opening roster, barring injuries. D Mitchell is kind of the speed element at all levels and screen game, kind of your Lawler replacement. Wheatfall hasn't really looked good on anything but a couple verticals, and really hasn't finished a ton of plays. Could be a 2nd year breakout candidate I guess but just don't see a spot for him to get on Game 1. He'd be a PR guy again if he doesn't get beat out by someone who looks like a better fit. To me White Jr and Stearns are in a battle for the 3rd slot position. Maybe can get both on if Stearns can return. If White is in good health I could see him and Schoen (if he's healthy too) being devastating targets down the middle.
