    Frankie Williams had the most memorable highlight, just not the way he wishes.  Never. Gets. Old. 

  • Didn't like Proulx when he first became a head referee, but IMO he has morphed into the best head ref the league has.

  • Just came across this forum and signed up to join in on the conversation on the roster. Was reading some of the stuff people commented about on the PR shrinking and ADS and Agudosi getting picked

For as much as people rag on Faj, I found this from John Hodge interesting:

Jake Maier has attempted 14 passes of 20+ yards this season with two completions, a rate of 14%.

Leaders in the category (min. 10 atttempts):

🐦 Fajardo (10/20, 50%)
🦁 Adams (20/46, 44%)
🍉 Harris (10/26), 39%)
💣 Collaros (11/29, 38%)
🐯 Shiltz (6/17, 35%)

from what I hear...Quite likely MBT won't be going to Ottawa....for what its worth

So he takes 5 deep shots a game and hits 2 of them.

it's the fact that he can't sustain drives and consistently hit receiver's beyond the line of scrimmage and about 15 to 20 yards out....or has any awareness in the pocket

OH Hell no...he's ancient as an NFL guy now...and had multiple shots before....he's coming back to Canada

I am not sure what kind of dream world MBT is living in where he thinks he has NFL hope. Maybe if several teams around the NFL were to lose their entire QB stable to injury they might want an old vet presence to teach youngsters how to be pros, but even that is an extreme longshot and would never happen before the NFL season.

Henoc said on a Podcast that he spoke to MBT this morning and he is not coming to Ottawa. 

Did Henoc use ancestral spirit guides to mediate this conversation?

That's probably exactly it. He spent quite a few years in the NFL, probably thinks he can add value to a room. 

But it may just be that he's on the verge of retiring and is just telling himself, if that opportunity came up, then I will give it another go.

And isn't there a new rule in the NFL that adds an extra QB? That makes it easier to have a journeyman QB around and not always feel pressured to have an heir apparent receiving on-the-job-training. Might benefit MBT's chances?

3 QBs on the game roster so yep it does in theory.

Your regular Ballsy is a moron post.

Collaros, Kelly and honestly you can make a case for Adams have been better. Best my ass.

TBH - he has been better than I thought he’d be so far. 
 

But, as usual, Ball is insane.

He has been who everyone thought he was. Lots of stats that amount to not a lot. 

Hamilton’s raw rookie pro QB came off the bench and scored more points vs Edmonton on the road than Harris did in an entire game at home playing in Regina.

I thought it would be even worse than normal TBH. 
 

He has actually shown some mobility as well. And I say this as someone who considers Harris to be  on the all-time overrated team.
