under construction: CFL Teams Review/Preview Thread

Alrighty, time to get to work... We have the best of the CFL online fan community's Bomber posters here and a few from other teams thrown into the mix. It's time for us to create a thread to use what we have here.

What i have in mind:

myself and 7 other posters will create Review/Preview posts, one for each team in the league. within each post we will cover:

Starters on O:
Starters on D:
Key STers:
New Additions:
Subtractions:
Draft:
Players on the bubble:
Last season summary:
2013 outlook and prediction:

but it doesn't end there... when each are up, the forum will then post their own additions and amendments to each and by popular consensus the poster will edit their own post. please make use of team stats wherever possible. a picture or two would be nice too... maybe a star player or something.
then a mod will clean the thread leaving only the 8 team previews as created by MorningBigBlue's posters.

now to assign/volunteer for the 8 previews... (don't all raise your hand at once :lol: )

Montreal: Doctor Handsome
Toronto: bluto
Hamilton: Zontar
Winnipeg: JPan85

Saskatchewan: Mark H
Edmonton: Mike
Calgary: iso_55
BC: DanoT

Timeframe: i'd like the previews reviews to be done by Monday night please... then the edits and revisions to be done prior to Tuesday June 11th

who wants in?

I think their OL will be much better this season. They're all good players. but I think last year was the first time any of them had ever played together before, and it showed. A year of familiarity should really help them out. An improved OL will make the entire offense better, especially Durant, who's already better than what Calgary & Edmonton have. Sheets is a top notch rb & the receiving corp. should be improved this season.

 

I also like the moves they made on D this offseason. Chick, Foley, Anderson (as long as he's at corner, not db), and Weldon are all nice upgrades for them. They have to show they can do it on the field together, but on paper their D looks much improved.

 

I agree that the Riders look good.  I think George Cortez will be a huge addition for them.

I forgot to mention him, but I completely agree with you. Cortez taking over for Dyce is a huge upgrade.

Dont think Glenn folded. I think he ran smack dab into his own inabilities. Needed a balanced attack to help his very average passing. When Argos shut down Cornish it was effectively over at halftime. He just doesnt have the arm strangth or athltecism to change the dynamic of a game without lots of help.

 

Foley had to be the most overrated plaer of the FA period. Rider fans like Leaf fans vastly over inflate the skill level and value of players sometimes.

Glenn did yeoman service last year. The offense was designed for Tate & Dickenson changed it up to account for the things Glenn did well. Hey, the Stamps coulda..shoulds... won the Grey Cup but the Argos outplayed them. Other than Glenn, the Stampders are a young team. They'll be better for the experience.

Indeed...until they show it on the field it's all 'paper punch.'
