Cameron Wake's Contract

It seems to me that I read Wake has a clause in contract which allows him to reopen negotiations with the team if he reaches 10 sacks. He currently has 9.5 with 5 games left. This should mean a very big payday for CW. Especially when coupled with a Pro Bowl starting spot ...

You probably all know that Peter king writes the one of the best column's on the NFL every Monday. This is Monday Morning Quarter Back. It is my essential read each Monday of the year. You can find it here:

interesting topic. I agree with the majority no Flutie name on the wall.
Some comments on the players named:

Less Browne and Charles Gordon;

These guys were absolutely great. Browne smooth as silk and the all time interception leader in the CFL. Also a great leader. Charles Gordon was ...

Hi I have been a CFL fan since1954. i went to my first game in 1958. I was 11 years old. I lived in Edmonton and idolized Jackie Parker and Johnny Bright. moved to Vancouver in 63 and attended the 1963 GC. Became a big BC fan.

Currently I travel the world for a textile company. I am currently in ...

In my top 5 there are really six. I had to put Cameron Wake on this list despite him only playing two years. i do not believe longevity is the first criterion. In my mind the best players have extra-ordinairy athletic skill, combined with the following intangibles,
Will to win,
Courage,
The ...

Some great names there! But my personal all-time Top Lion was:

Merv Fernandez

There has never been another Lion who has dominated his position like Merv did. He was the best ever. He had ALL the tools...speed, moves, hands. He was basically un-coverable. If the QB could get him the ball, he ...

I stand corrected Thanks for the clarification on White and Walls

I thought I would start this thread to honor the great memories I have had watching the lions since 1959. Here are my personal choices as the top ten lions of all-time

Honorable Mention or #11-23
in no particular order
Dave Dickenson
Darren Flutie
Glen Jackson
Ray Nettles
Tom Hinton
Bill Baker
Al ...

Well it is award time and another BC Lion Solomon Elimimian is a finalist for the rookie of the year award. personally i think he will win it. BC has owned this award since 1998. BC lions rookies have won this award 8 times and all other teams have won 4 times. Here is a list of all winners since ...

Well we know here in Vancouver he may have been the best athlete since Willie Fleming to play for the Lions. He was definitely the best player in Canada for two years regardless what the award presenters said. Simply dominating is the bestbway to put it.

well today Peter King senior SI NFL footbal ...

I take nothing away from these guys. They understand the type of player required in the CFL. You look at the top four personnel guys in Canada. i do not mean just scouts I mean guys who bring value to the team through the recruits they find from scouts camps relationships etc. they would be Popp ...

Yes agreed your system measures and compares QB's. This YPA system measures teams regardless of who is at the position. It is two totally different things.

Comparing teams is different from comparing individuals. You are trying to see how a team performs with whomever is at QB. If AC is at QB for ...

Sorry JH you just do not get it or wish to get it. Passer rating is about individuals. Passing efficiency is about comparing one team to another. I have no quibble with passer ratings or anything you said abut that stat which measures an individual QB.

Team passing efficiency is just that an ...

Byrne believes that Offensive efficiency in passing should be measured by yards per attempt not net yards per completion. He also believes that sacks were allowed should be added to the attempted pass total. A sack is a pass that did not happen. The formula for this is

Net passing Yards (passing ...
