Nope. 207. I'm not surprised someone else was vocal about it.

#84 the entire 4th quarter. I'm telling you. Someone should make a video montage

Hard to pick 3 guys that stood above the rest. A lot of guys made plays. Even thought the DBs in the 4th quarter deserved a better fate. Very exciting preseason game, which can't be said about many in the past.

The refing was terrible. Chaosmonkey and I were having a hoot watching #84 on Edmonton go offside every play in the 4th quarter. It wasn't even close. That and some of the PI calls were pretty laughable. The 4th quarter was comedic but wouldn't have been funny if it was regular season

JFG, Chungh, Goossen, Harris, Loffler, Westerman, Hurl. If you're talking about when Thomas subs in then yes.

Pointing more and more like we're going to go with Hurl at MLB. Don't even know if we can DI a linebacker, or if we should.

Lankford sure showed his abilities during the first pre-season game. I don't think his hands are terrible and it's just a matter of being consistent and "getting his head in the game". Somewhat reminds me of when we had Adarius Bowman.

If they felt like Apodaca was still in their plans, they likely would have given him some time this Thursday.

Surprised Liggins wasn't cut for being the other guy to hit the endzone. lol

I for one am one of those who thinks Bennett has potential to be a good QB. But what do I know.

With these pre-season games you aim to give your QBs a certain amount of time but it doesn't always work out the way you want. I'm guessing you're probably right.

Thanks for your report, Captain!

Thanks for the balanced report. Santos-Knox is a name that keeps coming up in the "players of the day" part of Ed Tait's articles. Is he taking reps at MLB?

I hope so. I've been a noted fan of Quincy McDuffie.

Duncan released today. First import receiver released? Either way, sorry Duncan.

I did notice Hurl during punt cover practice yesterday and thought he had an extra jump in his step FWIW.

If I had to pick 1 new import receiver to make the team right now I'd say it would be Duncan. He has burned many DBs and makes the catches look easy. Will be interesting to see what he brings to the table as a returner

Other receiver observations (not necessarily new) : Darvin Adams and Weston Dressler make hard catches look easy. Clarence Denmark still has that corner route JFG should be looking over his shoulder. Coates looked better. Runs much better routes. JFG shows effort but he was not getting open. Richards didn't look out of place at all. Thera-Plomendon looked solid but unspectacular.

We are all in agreement that Lowder and Duncan looked great. Duncan has speed to burn. Thorpe could be one of those guys that has a very bad first day of camp but then ends up being our best find. He had some bad drops today but flashed his potential

I still remember Richards laying a guy out at the receiver position. That is enough to give me some hope.

Cody Speller and not Qadr Spooner? Can't fool us, Bombers.

Sure. So you cross that bridge when you get there. Waiting and hoping is not a great strategy for a CFL GM

If you define him by his age and injury history... But if you can get him on a "last chance in football" contract it's probably worth the "chance". You have the incumbent, the high draft pick, the safe depth guy. Why not go for the home run? At worst you cut him in training camp. At best he's better than JFG. Besides, who else is out there?

Watt would be a decent pickup. Don't think his salary demands would be outrageous.

Waggoner is a bust considering he just retired. Otherwise I wouldn't have considered him to be. Ugh.
