Glenn to Edm
That will be interesting to watch. God knows, he has the talent but horrible throwing mechanics- is he resistant to coaching?

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
The difference to me is that Durant, although well-paid, played for a team that was fortunate to win any games at all, what with the gong show going on in Montreal. Davis and LeFevour did not have that millstone around their necks. If the Bombers come up with a really promising quarterback prospect and he beats out Durant or anyone else in training camp, so be it. Our track record of recruiting finding quarterbacks over the past oh, 20 years, does not inspire confidence.

Good arm and size, seems to ad lib well, accurate and protects the ball- what's not to like?

Glenn to Edm
If you had an employee who was in training for 3 years and still felt he/she could not step into the breech and showed he/she could not, you would fire that person and look elsewhere for someone who could. This is not rocket surgery.

To me, it doesn't matter worth a damn if Davis and LeFevour "know" LaPolice's system- they have to go onto the field and execute. They didn't.

Have you seen Davis and/or LeFevour in action?

Glenn to Edm
Apart from Hurl, the greatest disappointment this past season was the performances of LeFevour and Davis, particularly Davis. LeFevour is who he is but Davis had ample prep time and was so unable to gain the confidence of the coaches that he was shunted aside in favour of a known but very limited retread. Why the heck did it take so long for the Bomber brain trust to see this, and more importantly, replace him?

Neither of these have shown that they are any better than Drew Willy, so what would be the wisdom in retaining either of them? I say we give Durant a decent, but not exorbitant offer and bring in a couple-three promising rookies.

RE: Davis and LeFevour- use the same ingredients and you get the same cake. I would welcome Durant over these in a heartbeat. If the Bombers are spending $100,000+ for a third-down specialist/one-trick pony, there is something really wrong.

2 CFL Cameos Last Night
And there was this rather racy movie being filmed in Alabama and when the locals heard of all the nudity, they showed up on set and started booing and throwing rocks at the actors. Fortunately, the local minister showed up, stood in front of the crowd and picked up one of the projectiles saying. "Let those among you who have never sinned stone the cast first."

Now you've gone and ruined it for the rest of us. Did you know that MacGuver joined the US air force (Stargate Command) afterwards?

Sure. Just look at the top of your computer screen at your tool bar for that kinda circle with an arrow.

When do we fire Richie Hall?
Yup. His jersey ought to read "ROADKILL"

Quite a condemnation of Hall.

The CFL needs to hire my wife to oversee the challenges. Sometimes she knows I am wrong even before I open my mouth.

Don't be cowed by that, or you'll have a beef and be steered wrong. Or it could all be a load of bull and you could wake up with a persistent calf. Worse yet, you could lose your Bomber Jersey.

I would agree with the "fantastic" part- fantastic means not real, just imagined.

Marouf is an odd duck- his physique is not like your prototypical d-lineman who is built like a fridge with arms. Marouf looks. ...proportionate. Maybe that's why the Bombers took a flyer on him.

Wild still has to win a spot, so the contract may be moot.

I suggest that the answer is to review the game tapes after the game and suspend the offender for s long as it takes for the victim to recover.

No coach is without some redeeming skills (ok, maybe Burke as head coach and a few others) but the bottom lines is the bottom line, the defence that he is responsible to oversee wasn't good enough to win a playoff game. You are certainly correct in that few, if any of us, know what goes on behind the curtains, so all we have is the record of the defence. Q.E.D.

Rule Changes For 2018
I would like to see a Canadian quarterback be counted for the NI ratio, and a total of three successful challenges but only one failed one during a game.
