QB Accuracy Rankings
I like that someone is trying to gauge QB accuracy. It's one of the most important things a QB can possess. I don't have a problem with the way he's doing it either. Folks either don't understand what he's saying or are just upset that their QB, Nichols, isn't ranked higher. Note that this is simply about accuracy. It's not about play call or wins or even completions.

Bombers @ Lewis Ward's 47 yard missed FG Pre-game Thread
I doubt that the good teams want to play Toronto or Montreal. To be the best, you gotta beat the best. Good teams likely look forward to playing us.

Looking for memories of 1991 Grey Cup week/festivities/hoopla etc.
It was definitely a beer can. It came from the section I was sitting in. No, I don't know who threw it, but it was a great throw.

Week 4 Takeaways
It does. I used it last year and it's kinda crappy and kinda expensive for what it is.

GDT: Bombers vs Ottawa
And fans are never known for seeing things as obvious that aren't.

Matt Nichols Discredited Too Much? Passing Yards Are Meaningless
Streveler did what he needed to win too. 6 of 8 for 42. 75% passing. 2 rushing TD's and a great throwing TD. His Int was a tipped ball at the LOS, which wasn't really his fault.

Week 4 Takeaways
Bigger mistake is J Jackson as the OC.

Bombers @ Lewis Ward's 47 yard missed FG Pre-game Thread
The Bombers look like the best team in the league at the moment, that being said, I doubt even half teams are grimacing at the idea of playing us.

GDT: Bombers vs Ottawa
If it was obvious in real time, it would have been called in real time. I thought it was a 50-50 chance that we'd get the call when MOS threw the challenge flag.

GDT Tiger-Cats @ Larks
Punters have been 'defenceless' for as long as football has been played. No need to give them even more protection. The only way to block punts now is from the outside. I'd guess that even a full block where the player contacts the kicker will turn into a first down for the punting team.

But I was told that every opinion holds the same amount of weight. 🤣😎🤣😎

3 stars plus HH red black n blues
Demski - Totally beat his man to get wide open for 82 yard TD to set the tone. Adams - Amazing 1 handed catch didn't get enough air time. Jefferson - Owned Ottawa's OL HH: Streveler - 2 Running TD's, 1 excellent passing TD.

GDT: Edmonton @ Winnipeg June 27, 2019
There are degrees of wrong. It's wrong to assume a mouse is rat, it's ridiculously wrong to assume a mouse is a giraffe. Just because two things can't be proven, doesn't make them the same degree of wrong. I'm assuming that Lucky's replacement would not play as well as Lucky did in the game. As he had a great game, it's likely that I'm right. You're assuming that Lucky's replacement is actually better than Lucky on the night. That's a giraffe vs mouse kind of assumption. There is very little chance that you're right. Two hypothetical situations that are equally likely right are equal. Two hypothetical situations where one is likely right and the other is likely wrong aren't.

Your 'point' seems to be that ridiculous assertions are equal to realist ones.

GDT: Edmonton @ Winnipeg June 27, 2019
What a crock of ____. No way to prove either statement, but you're statement is way out to lunch and mine was reasonable.

Lock of the Week 4
Burnham - Gotta pick someone who is playing against Toronto. With Burnham going on the IR this week, I'll change my vote to Mike Reilly.

Nissan Power Rankings
I'd go: Winnipeg - Beat a good team and a bad team. Lucky it's a team game. Hamilton - Killed bad teams. Not convinced they are anywhere near as good as they've looked so far. Edmonton - Reduce the penalties. Win the big games. Ottawa - As good as Dom plays. We'll see if he can keep it up going forward. Calgary - Lucky to win one. Regina - Playing Toronto is good for what ails you. BC - Getting better, but a long way to go. Montreal - Should be the worst team in the league. Toronto - Are the worst team in the league.

GDT: Edmonton @ Winnipeg June 27, 2019
Maybe you prefer... Without Lucky we lose. Without Nichols we still win. Better?

Week 3 Takeaways.
I had that problem last year. Also had some weird jumpiness to the video feed at times. Lame considering the price.

GDT: Edmonton @ Winnipeg June 27, 2019
Of course they do. Why even argue about it?

GDT: Edmonton @ Winnipeg June 27, 2019
It's not magic. Any competent QB makes those passes.

GDT: Argos @ 'Riders
Argos are a bad team. Franklin hasn't taken the next step and may never take it. SJ Green used to be great, sad to see how far he's fallen. Darby is absolutely brutal. I guess they'll win a game or two, but it will be more luck than skill. The Riders aren't as bad as I've been led to believe. Fajardo looked good in the last 2 games. Better than broke down Collaros. If he can keep it up, the Riders will get out of the basement in the West.

GDT: Edmonton @ Winnipeg June 27, 2019
The first TD was a good pass. The second TD was all Lucky.

Without Whitehead, we lose.
