BC at Edmonton

3 Areas To Watch

Number 2 Pivot: Who Steps Up?

BC - Ricky Lloyd and first-year Leos Austin Apodaca and Cole Sears will handle the quarterback reps in hopes of getting a leg up on sticking behind Reilly on the depth chart. 

Edmonton- Danny O’Brian, Logan Kilgore, Briscoe.

- One big observation in the first week of camp is the depth at receiver. Standouts at the position have included Joey Augustin, Marquis Bundy and Mexican additions Fernando Richarte and Gerardo Alvarez. All CFL clubs are required to keep one global player on their roster beyond training camp.

- Defensive Line: Calling On Another Bookend

With Odell Willis having another strong showing in camp, the big question remains who will line up as the other bookend.

- Linebacker Adam Konar gets to battle some of his own teammates after he was cut loose and quickly picked up by the Lions on day one of camp. He’ll start at MLB

Now's your big chance.  Harris for Bridge.  He counts against ratio this year too as a added bonus.  Just a thought

How many Pilsners have you had today?

Really starting to think Rod Black calling him "Air Canada" was silly.

That’s what I thought, although it says there are teams checking out the toll for that particular, ahem, structure.

That would be a short span- too much pier pressure.

Could bridge be salvaged as a reciever?

Can he check his ego to try it?

Not that many, why do you ask?

2 late. Hes a QB. Could start once Collaros gets hurt. 

Oh boy

Ridiculous timing

Sherman...tanked

All because he couldn’t get that damned microphone off..

Anyone think they had some disagreements about who should be cut?  That's my theory

The knife didn't cut deep enough, that elusive devil Kavis survives again!

3rd QB, glorified clipboard holder. counts against the ratio - which enables the team to start another INT (at Safety, DL or OL) then let him play special teams (like Bennett did) - I don't it's a bad idea 😅

He won't see the field anyways,

The league should let backup Canadian qb's count against the ratio.  It would encourage every team to have at least one on roster. Would be good for our CIS programs

I think this is likely to be a reprieve rather than an vote of confidence. Reed has to be the hands-down worst GM in the league.

Let me start by saying please forgive me if this has already been discussed somewhere. I looked and couldn't find it.

Are there new uniform rules for this season? I understand the change is to New Era but do teams only have 1 uniform? Just this week we saw Sask and Mont wearing whites at home. The Calgary/ B.C. game had both teams in colours. Does anyone know? Has this been discussed?

 

CFL teams have used one uniform only in the pre season for as long as I can remember.

Thank you, I guess I never noticed before. Possibly this year I was watching closer due to the new supplier.

Low class shot...

I always give the benefit of a doubt when there is doubt. I don’t know, but it seemed something was ‘off’ with Sherman. He seemed to be behind the curve, and now he admits it. 

The over the hill comment is unjustified, especially if there are other issues involved, but the man is 64 and we may be looking at something else here.

I don't think any of the media liked Sherman, otherwise they wouldn't be taking turns throwing him under the bus.

If Sherman felt this way then he should have bailed at the end of the season last year. But what a bad hire by Reed who doesn't get off the hook for this one. 

 

Seeing as he’s played football around these parts, it comes as no surprise to surface here, but I just don’t know about Simonise. Potential..but why hasn’t it happened yet? 

Why not force your team to have a tougher decision on keeping you as opposed to releasing with question marks?

Petermann clearly outperformed him and that’s what counts for the Bombers..
