Totally agree. I don't dislike CFL haters, I feel sorry for them. Their own bigotry towards an exceptional product is making them miss out on some pretty damn good football.

Absolutely. The big thing is that DCs will be scrambling to game plan for both guys and that's hard to do because what they bring to the table is very different. It will be very difficult ask for any DC to formulate, and then implement a shut down defensive game plan for Collaros and Strev in the course of a few days. This will allow us to exploit defences a little more. I expect Zac, a very cerebral QB, to be able to operate at a very high efficiency level against the league this year.

No player can win the MOP every year, so I agree with your post that it was inevitable he would eventually lose one. However, ZC is still the best QB in the league....not by as large of a margin anymore...but the numbers and results don't lie.

I wish CFLdb were still the site it used to be. Used to have all these advanced stats available.

Tackle stats require a lot of context for sure.
I agree. Like most stats a deeper dive should usually be done. I do agree that the two you singled out are big time proof of that.

Right on because you are right..Unless you go to a 529 or Hys the steaks are not as good as what I can do for myself at home.

So, I rarely order steak when we eat out, because it's that much better at home
But Friday night, I took the chance on a 12 oz. medium rare sirloin at Montana's
It was actually quite good

Plus it's Wendy's and not very good.

The only area that Zac "regressed" if you wanna call it that is in ball security. He threw up too many 50/50 balls last year. Other than that, the guy was easily the best QB in the CFL. He wasn't out of this world last year, like the two years before, but when we say take a step back it should be put in context. He stepped back from being an almost unanimous MOP to simply being the top QB in the CFL. And to anyone who say 'ya but Chad Kelly", that was all media and the need for a bonafide star in Toronto. Collaros was better by just about every QB metric.

Your name says it all....StrevyISaBEAST.  I can't prove it, but I think the decision to move on from Brown was decided last year when Strevy came to town and watch a game. I think that there was more going on then that. Discussions with the Bombers started imo. 
That being said, Love Dru and think he will be successful. Unfortunately, our QB room is just a little too talented right now to let him have his chance here.  Zach still has a couple good years left, and Dru's time is now.

This year an entire 1st round of talent is going to be gone to the NFL. It's like every draft starts with 2nd round talent now outside of maybe the top 1 or 2 picks.
Don't forget the 4 stripes....but could you imagine being a Leafs fan? No one has ever seen them win a cup on a color TV.

Edmundson is not the player he used to be. Guy is a defensive black hole now and offers no offence. He does add toughness, but it is at the expense of the scoreboard. His play has badly dropped off from a few years ago. He doesn't crack our starting lineup imo. If we got him as a veteran insurance policy, I suppose that would be OK but not to step in and play.

They do, when the locker room has just the right amount of flooding. 

Not a great pickup imo but I guess they had to replace Johansen. Basically a wash in that department imo.

The last 3 drafts haven't been particularly stellar for any teams. We are losing way too much of our top end draft talent to the NFL now.

Grow up Booch. People who disagree with you are not boot lickers. There`s no need to be childish.

The biggest difference will be the change in direction under Miller. I think that Boudreau kinda lost the handle on it last year. Also hoping that we change punters, I think our cover teams were a little out of synch with our punters different style.
I agree that BOLO's worth may have been a little inflated to many of us, as backup players tend to be in every fan base, but he did show some promise with not many reps.  I hope you are right about Murphy.

My expectation is a Grey Cup. I see no reason whatsoever why that would not be a fair expectation.

Last year he was convinced the Stamps were turning the corner and about to make a run at 1st in the West and this was around game 12. In his opinion Winnipeg and BC were about to tumble down the standings and Calgary was going to "realize it's talent"...is the term I believe he used. He is the Stamps version of Migs..just delusional.
