Key in traffic or with contact not jarring the ball out...guys like him who catch like that just pick ball out of space...its not hitting them...Lawler did it too...rarely seen the ball separated from him when being hit as he caught it...and some catches u were just like...wtf??!?
Haa..big sexy ball grabber

Ftfy

Sounds like the 1s at camp today were Demski, Schoen, Clercius, White Jr and Wheatfall... Fwiw. 

Some interesting numbers...
Medlock
2016 raw average 42.7 long 65 2 singles 1 punt return TD against 35.8 net
2017 raw average 43.7 long 85 2 singles 1 punt return TD against 35.9 net
2018 raw average 44.5 long 62 1 single 1 punt return TD against 37 net
2019 raw average 44.5 long 71 1 single 1 punt return TD against 37.5 net
 
Sheehan
2023 raw average 46.2 long 73 0 singles 0 punt return TD against 36.2 net
2024 raw average 44.4 long 70 0 singles 0 punt return TD against 36.2 net

Sounds like he has his head on straight based on this article.  He's not blowing off his slow start to camp and giving himself a pass.  He's been putting in extra work and listening to the coaches and it's starting to show according to MOS.

Change his number to 1468

@JuranBoldenRules posted a pretty solid napkin game 1 roster

Here's a likely game 1 napkin roster scenario as of today.  I left the kickers and Benson off.  Assumed Lawson and Kelly are injured.  Having a returner in the secondary leaves the O pretty thin.  I think they keep Griffin on because he can play like 8 spots on D and is great on special teams.  Could see them swapping Schmekel for Jaylen Smith too, especially if they play on going with 30 fronts.  Could also see Lofton losing his job. 
If they go with something like this...3 Canadian OL starting, they need 6 ALL CAPS on the field at all times on O, and only 1 ALL CAPS on the field on D on every snap.

I was just reading about Quinton Cooley to see if he had any experience returning. Looks like he never did it in college but had a handful in high school. I also came across this ridiculous stat:
Imagine what those games must have looked like 🤣

I get what you're saying. But I think you're day dreamin a bit. Miller will not push either one out after another winning season. It will take at minimum consecutive seasons where the needle moves in the wrong direction. No I do not mean losing the GC game again. I mean not making the cup, not making playoffs etc etc.

Lawson is 100% starting over Thomas when healthy

3 yrs ago...times have changed...put a fork in jt already
Yeah..he had surpassed him...and makes more than him

Case wasn’t in the first game, maybe he had to return home? Other wise we could’ve stuck some one on the ir who we know is gonna make it and doesn’t need the reps. 
Nah Lawson was taking equal reps with Thomas and more down the stretch before his injury. They paid him top tier money, he’s likely gonna play more snaps than Jake. 

I hear Jake will be starting in 2125. I am planning to upload my consciousness to the Internet so it can complain about this. 

Dear God, i just realized Callaros has not thrown a TD pass in 4 of our last 5 Grey Cups. Christ, if he's even average we would have won 4 in a row. Great now ive made myself sad and angry. Fired myself back up all over again.

I don’t think we see Collaros in SK, especially when he’s not playing in gm 1. Get Streveler those reps.

Cause it's a long assed offseason.

Would be nice to have a stream you can watch on a TV instead of having to find a back channel because the CFL website can support a total of 50 people watching the game.

I know I'm preaching to the choir....but damn the CFL just can't get out of its own way. This stream is god awful, between quality of picture and just straight up missing plays all together. 

CFL.ca is seriously down? WTF guys.

If Jake is best as a 10 rep rotational guy, is he worth keeping with a higher vet salary? Sounds like a job for a cheaper, younger player does it not?

Yessir, 2 hours. I can't wait to set Doug up to rant about Collaros's suspension. He's going to light it on fire again!

57-18 record as a Bomber, 2 grey cup wins, 5 grey cup appearances. The greatest era in my entire lifetime. I’m going to reserve judgment until I see the numbers but if Zach wants to keep playing, and he’s willing to give up some money by us extending him now I would say this is perfectly fine, curious to see how our new OC uses him, with a healthy Schoen and a deeper (maybe not as top end talented) receiving core I’m hoping we can get a little bit of a bounce back year from Zach. 

This is.... Interesting. Would like to know the numbers on this. Better be a pay cut... Or we definitely need to see a return to form this year. I still believe in ZC8, but we need to see a better year this year...
