Re: Training camp 2024
Has Meyer been doing any of the kick-offs? I always thought the Alouettes/Argos had an advantage when Boris Bede would blast kick-offs down to the goal line or 5 yard line. Most returners aren't making it to the 35 if your cover team is worth its salt. As a sidenote, one battle I want to learn more ...

Re: Lions' receivers
It's really an embarrasment of riches. Kudos to management for identifying these Nationals (in the draft and elsewhere....the FA signing of McInnis from the Riders was brilliant) and to the coaches for nurturing/seasoning them. We could potentially go American at LG at some point. Have to see the st...

Re: Lions' receivers
The way I see it, in the event of an injury to McInnes or Cottoy, the Leos could go with an American there rather than trying to scramble to find another National off the scrap heap. This is how I could see us starting the season with Nationals: 3 oline: Knevel, Couture, Chungh 2 receivers: Cottoy, ...

Re: Training camp 2024
They must really like Terrell to sign him with camp already underway. Wonder if they will move on completely from Mizzell? I wondered the same thing, Sammy. I think the Terrell signing is more to do with the realization that Stanback is 29 with a lot of miles (remember the serious ankle injury in 2...

Re: Training camp 2024
I know it's very early, but any first or second year Leos standing out to you and Hambone, B.C.FAN? From the sounds of it, the following are getting noticed: Travis Fulgham Ayden Eberhardt Ronald Kent Jr. Dakota Prukop Charlie Ringland Cristophe Beaulieu? Carl Meyer? Of course, it's harder to assess...

Re: Training camp 2024
On the defensive line, Marcus Moore continued to take first-team reps for Christian Covington (tendonitis). Thanks, as usual, for the great report, B.C.FAN. Was this a typo? I was under the impression that Covington tweaked a hamstring. I thought only Sayles had tendonitis, but perhaps that changed...

Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions
Sorry Don, but I have to disagree. Bo has hung on too long for love of game. Arm strength isn't there, no mobility, accuracy meh...he's a shadow of his former self (leadership is still there though but that can't win you a lot of football games on its own). I can see the same thing happening with Bi...

Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions
How concerned should Ti-Cats fans be with Bo Levi turning up at training camp in a walking boot, coming off an injury-plagued 2023 campaign in which the veteran signal caller had a QBR of 67.5%? Mitchell, 34, was back taking reps with the offence today, but yikes, it's just Mitchell, Taylor Powell, ...

Re: Training camp 2024
Kind of a cool 90 second byte below in which Rick Campbell gets asked about 19-year old receiver Colton Meikle (Kamloops Broncos). He gets a lot of love from the Head Coach. Maybe someone to keep an eye on in a year or two as he's currently a non-counter. https://x.com/Jeffrey_Andreas/status/1790063...

Re: Training camp 2024
Thanks for your excellent reporting, BC FAN. This from the Leos X feed this morning: #BCLions have released American P/K Shane McDonough & American WR Jamarius Way from the training camp roster. A bit surprised at Way. He was with us 2 years ago and showed a lot of promise. I thought he was goin...

League Thows The Book at Chad Kelly
Chad Kelly has just been suspended by the CFL for the preseason and a minimum of 9 regular season games and ordered to undertake counselling for violating the league's Gender-Based Violence policy. He won't be reinstated until the league is satisfied that he has completed counselling and met the ass...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB
I feel badly for Rourke. Probablly has more talent than half the starters in the NFL (he engineered 5 TD drives on 9 drives in preseason for the Jags). I believe he was given bad advice, going into a situation with Trevor Lawrence as the franchise QB and Beathard the established #2 (it probably shou...

Re: 2024 CFL draft (Lion's picks)
Wow. CFL.ca mock draft had Una at #33 overall and we take him at #6. How do we explain this disparity?
