I think that's going to be standard procedure with starting QB's, pull him out of the game so they can start again next week without the PA or league intervening. I bet VA will be ready to play next week.

Good to know when adversity hits, Vern will still retreat to the sidelines for a little cry with the towel pulled over his head.

Griffin is mostly playing 4th LB opposite Kramdi in a lot of snaps, so it's not good if he becomes invisible.

It doesn't have to cover 70 yds. or end in a TD to be considered a great run, in his first 2 seasons in Wpg. I fondly remember him breaking through into the secondary and rumbling for a few 15-20 yd. beauties. Those brutal runs + a fur coat is what his legend was built upon.

Other team's fans used to call Strev a glorified running back, but he really hasn't busted off a great run since he returned last season.

It seems like Strev looks but doesn't really see, repetitive pattern throughout his career of throwing to a receiver whether he's closely covered or not because that's the play call. Maybe why he always rushes his throws, hoping they arrive before anything bad happens.

Did nothing or signed 4 FA receivers? Does 4=0?

Coming in first every year isn't a given, nor is it a realistic expectation when 8 other organizations have the same goal, assuming the playing field is level and they have an experienced GM and coaching staff. Would the Stamps be further ahead if they'd fired Dickenson as soon as their winning record dropped off?

Justin McInnis college film would not look inspiring either and yet his size and catch radius cancels out all of his negative attributes.

You can see the head referee watching the play as it happens in the background not 10 ft. away, he does not react and from what I could tell he didn't throw his flag either. It almost seems like Command Centre called the penalty for them, because they just couldn't decide if it was illegal or not.

Yep, Strev is just a Dustin Crum wannabe.

That's mostly because he was ungainly.

Strev. has nothing to complain about, he's getting the same opportunity to play that Dru Brown had in 2023, it's up to him to show every GM in the CFL what he can do with the opportunity provided. He may top out his career as the Dustin Crum of the West.

I think the reason White gave for leaving is he needed to feed his family, if he was paid not to play, problem solved. Decent chance he may have played in place of Case last game.

The Bombers are obviously using that extra money to sustain their 1 game IR, 4 or 5 healthy players are being paid not to play. I have no problem with this as a tool to expand the roster and hang onto players they would be in danger of losing if they sent to the PR. Regret they didn't offer Reggie White the same deal.

Explain how that might happen? If he was #2 right now instead of Strev. he'd be picking up valuable game reps, 6 Q's so far this season. Instead he's wasting away on the sidelines waiting for his football career to expire.

If Zach reconsiders his future, they need to sort that decision out before the end of this season and move fast, starting QB options heading into 2026 are slim, top 3 available candidates Arbuckle, Fajardo, MBT, maybe Taylor Powell can be lured away if BLM continues to play with Lawler. No promising backups on the horizon, stockpile has been depleted. Given the obvious lack of options available, won't be surprised if they stick with Zach no matter the consequences or hand the ball to Strev. and struggle to achieve a .500 record.

There is a pattern, Zach likes playing with smart intuitive receivers that are tuned into what the defence is showing, not so much the dumb ones who just run their assigned route regardless. Yes, he won't be a FA till next year.

Zach provides his opinion on Case and Stearns.

Why waste energy pre-judging, wait and see what he does, he made the team for a reason.

Looks like Case has some pretty decent skills, all depends whether the QB can get the ball to him or not. Holm says he's the 2nd fastest player on the team next to himself.

Make note, Hamilton still doesn't make effective use of their running game, they may look like the "Belle of the Ball" during the summer with BLM filling the air with footballs, but their magic likely fades away in the fall when his fingers turn to ice.
