I'm not saying he's going to beat Betts, I'm just saying that Betts is wildly overrated. Jefferson led the league with 13 knockdowns. Deatrick Nichols was second with 12. Holm was 3rd with 11. Betts not on the leaders list. Edited October 26, 20231 yr by TrueBlue4ever

October 27, 20231 yr comment_670789 Again, if he wasn't Canadian... There wouldn't be so much buzz. When you look at all the stats and actually watch the games, I think it's a lot closer between Betts and Willie than people realize...

October 27, 20231 yr comment_670826 the December 2021 game was as cold as it could possibly be (that windchill was insane) and we still jammed the place. People will come out in droves in a couple of weeks... no question in my mind. Wade has made IGF *THE* place to be...

Was looking to have a couple people attend the game with us and sit close to us. As they procrastinated, I watched our whole section sell out, including singles sold out. Looking at seats available just now, anecdotally looks like a lot less tickets available than last week.Â

My bet is Betts gets it hands down simply for the reason of how they (certain CFL media outlets) have drooled over him all year.

Though Willy missed a lot of sacks this year.  Imo no one on d in the league was soo good that they out shine the Argos unit. I’d go with their candidate hands down. I’d love to get to see what a 21 bombers vs 23 Argos gc would look like. That’d hands down be the greatest clash of titans In gc history.Â

So many guys in his hands that ran free.

In general tackling goes a lot with coaching and discipline.  We’ve seen a lot of lack in both of those areas this year on d. But even still Willy is def the one who struggles the most in both areas. Though he also makes the most freelance plays.Â

October 28, 20231 yr comment_671438 Question: ---------- So at this point for the WBB, with 2 weeks to go, who is healthy, who is nicked up, and who is unlikely to play in the West Final? Will the extra week off benefit or hurt this teams chances?
