Around the CFL Regular Season Discussion


Recommended Posts

Willis continues to be a defensive liability and a distraction. He is also good for at least a couple off sides a game.  

 

I think he should stance at least 1 foot behind the LOS.

Bring him back to the Bombers and suddenly our pass rush will be a lot better.

Food for thought, Willis didn't look that good in Hall's defense here is Sask. Neither has Hall. His defense doesn't cater well to pure pass rushers

SB Cory Watson being attended to on the sidelines by a trainer. Looks like he injured his left leg, maybe hamstring. #Eskimos #CFL

 

 

I think I've seen this before, can't remember where and when ? :P

Dan West lets out a "moo-haaa haa" laugh and then fades back into the shadows of Commonwealth...

@DarrinBauming: I'm told the #Bombers have not signed @LJ38Bison to a contract, but they have shown interest.

I am hearing that Tom Brady is in this same category with the Bombers right now too.

I prefer Russell Wilson due to his mobility.

Tom's balls are prettier and less inflated.  He also seems to be taking the month of September off for some reason.
