Posted October 31, 20186 yr comment_365018 https://www.cfl.ca/2018/10/31/cfl-announces-2018-team-award-winners/ Some interesting names on there. Kicker for MOP in BC? Is that a first for a team that makes the playoff. No surprises for the Bombers.
October 31, 20186 yr Author comment_365024 Henoc takes MOP, MODP, and MOC in Montreal and I couldn't be happier not to have him on our team. Could see Bighill being the west nominee for MOP and MODP
October 31, 20186 yr comment_365046 My predictions: East: Player: Jeremiah MasoliDefensive: Henoc MuambaCanadian: Brad SinopoliOffensive Lineman: Alex MateasSpecial Teams: Lewis WardRookie: William Stanback West: Player: Mike ReillyDefensive: Adam BighillCanadian: Andrew HarrisOffensive Lineman: Derek DennisSpecial Teams: Brett LautherRookie: Jordan Williams-Lambert Winners: Player: Mike Reilly - still the best player in the league, statistically or otherwiseDefensive: Adam Bighill - pure beast mode, defensive nightmare and playmakerCanadian: Brad Sinopoli - surpassed Ben Cahoon's record for receptions in a seasonOffensive Lineman: Derek Dennis - anchors the line that leads the league in passing TDs and sacks allowedSpecial Teams: Lewis Ward - home town boy setting records while making some clutch kicksRookie: William Stanback - 6.7 yards per carry, over 700 offensive yards in 7 starts... could be good for 2000 combined yards in a competent offense
October 31, 20186 yr comment_365051 I would've given Streveler rookie of the year, but Sayless isn't bad.

Haven't you been reading all the other threads on this site? Edited October 31, 20186 yr by Eternal optimist
October 31, 20186 yr comment_365054 Micha Johnson could win over Bighill he has 13 sacks as a dt and has been pretty domimate this year.
October 31, 20186 yr comment_365071 I think the league MVP will be a defensive player this time. Bighill has changed the Bombers D, gone from league worst, for years, to at this point one of the top in the league. I think he's the league MVP. Tait......."Sayles ranks third on the club in defensive plays in his 15 games played, 14 of them starts, with 65 tackles, two forced fumbles, three interceptions and a fumble recovery. He also blocked a punt in a win over Edmonton in September." Edited October 31, 20186 yr by Mark F
October 31, 20186 yr comment_365075 I could see Masoli winning MOP. Good stats, and his team is playoff bound. Not a slight at Reilly who was still great this season but that might convince voters to turn the other way. Bighill should be the MODP. He came not only as advertised but better. Harris will also finish the season as the leading rusher so I think he should win MOC.. but Sinoploli May take it as well.

Harris for sure.
October 31, 20186 yr comment_365084 Masoli shouldn't get rewarded for stats he put up against sub-.500 teams, and playing the Argos 3 times. Threw almost half his TD passes vs the Argos. His stats against playoff teams are not good. It would be embarrassing for the league if he's MOP.

So the candidates for each award were indentified by the FRC, I think that’s the Football Reporters and the Head Coaches. What’s the process? The HC presents names from their team and discusses its local FRC reps and the FRC decides the divisional candidates and eventual individual winners? So in your query, is it Campbell valuing Harris over Powell? Can’t seem to agree that the Local FRC would want to create much conflict with the HC in order to maintain a working relationship.
November 1, 20186 yr comment_365108 No idea about the process but how can Harris get this nomination over Powell? It's a joke.

How about the Harris nomination costs the team less money in incentives than the Powell nomination? Just speculating, and wouldn’t be surprised if money is involved in this round of nominations. They’d guard that secret with a cone of silence that actually works.

I've never heard of a team nominating one player over the other to save money on incentives. If any team did that then that would be terrible. Powell was the better player all season. Harris stunk on more than a few occasions.

Most of them share their ballots pretty openly.
November 2, 20186 yr comment_365275 Most open I can remember the mop race being in a long time. I can see the case for any of the West nominees, except Long, to win it.

November 2, 20186 yr comment_365310 I think Bighill has a very good chance of winning it this season, his excellent play has been noticed outside of Winnipeg and with the collapse of Reilly and Mitchell I don't see them having great last impressions on the voters.
