Every team in the West is just a little shaky on D. They’ve all had strong games, maybe aside from B.C., but they all have had games where they can’t make the stop to win it.

18 point swing off Lauther's foot in that game.

Can't overstate how shitty of a play that was by Auclair. Sideline is your friend there. He gave Alexander all that space, stopped his feet and took out his other 2 linebackers pursuing.

Auclair with terrible leverage plus a weak effort on the tackle...blocks his 2 teammates.

The ruling on the field makes no sense so they can get the auto review. It's an incomplete pass.

What the **** is Davis doing?

With support and cooperation of the PA he'd have to exhaust the grievance and arbitration procedures outlined in the CBA. Then the PA could pursue a lawsuit on his behalf beyond that. If the PA drops him at any point in the process he'd be suing them and not the CFL first.

Blatant horse collar on a QB there.

Upper deck is nearly empty.

I mean....it's pro sports and the only pro sport without guaranteed contracts. If you run foul of the team and league you're always on the chopping block. Says right in the SPC portion of the CBA that the Commissioner decides who is eligible to play. I don't see why Kelly can't file a grievance and try it out in arbitration if he feels he's completed the requirements of the initial discipline. Personally, I'm not sure how his return at all could jive with league policies on respectful workplace. There's no requirement to give him another chance to **** up.

Houston got beat bad on two plays that were RB penalties too. He's not a good CFL DB.

Huge one for us.

Too much time for that. Calgary's OL is a horror show.

Easy for me. Move Haba on PR if you really want him or cut him. Leave Adams on the roster. Haba is a very borderline CFL player. We should still be beating the bushes for edge help. Adams and Woods have been quite impactful. Haba for Adams = weaker pass rush and weaker overall DL. If you get injured every 2-3 games you play yes you can lose your job to injury. That's happened to Haba. And then he steps up and bombs it downfield because the pocket isn't being collapsed.

BLM was headed to free agency when he was dealt.

Johnson is starting. Whitehead is returning.

It's a bit different because they'd be locked into Adams BC contract due to the guarantee. Pretty rare that a QB in that situation is traded rather than released. Last one really was Collaros from Hamilton to Sask but with a restructure to lower his hard money. There's really 3 teams that could be interested and I'm not sure why they'd want to take on both the amount of hard money for VAJ and the guarantee in 2026.

Operationally that franchise is still bleeding money. They've got big crowds when they've essentially paid them to come to see a concert with a football game.

Stadiums are huge issue in Edmonton and Calgary. Hard to pull off what the Bombers have in those dated dumps. Amenities are shitty, seating areas are shitty. Way below expectations of this era. Think key part of planning for viability in both markets needs to be new facilities. If I'm the owner I'm literally saying this franchise dies without a new facility in public every chance I get.

Karamoko and Cole split a lot of reps at WIL. Wilson and Gauthier split reps in the middle. Sometimes they had 3 of those guys on with Kramdi. This was the Montreal game. Bighill came back Week 2 and Gauthier has hardly played D since. Karamoko still got some D reps in Ottawa and Haba was out pretty early in that one so Cole got a lot of reps because they only had one true end in Jefferson so they went almost exclusively 30 and 50 fronts. That's when Wilson starting dropping down to the edge ineffectively. I'd guess you're maybe confusing Haba with Cole/Karamoko since they all wear numbers in the 40's?

Huh? He played rush end. The only full game he played our D got toasted by Montreal. In large part because we had SFA for a pass rush.

Territorial exemptions don't count against practice roster limit.

Adams is a better player, and plays hard every down. Haba is pretty meh and doesn’t finish many games. Kind of surprised he’s still around. We definitely could use an edge rusher but I remain skeptical he will be it.

I like how Farhan was about $200,000 off the mark LMAO I think it will happen. It's pretty hard to trade a guy who is going to get cut anyway and teams want to craft their own contracts.

Think they have the right mix on D right now for what they want to do. Wouldn't change it for Haba unless opportunity opens up with injury.
