Well that's a series of bad news.

I repeat: why didn't Logan go on the 6 game IR to start the season. Obviously he wasn't going to be able to practice for an extended time.

The same question about Bryant. He could always come of the 6 game IR earlier if necessary. This will be game 3 missed and no practice.

Didn't know Vanterpool was nicked. Has Lofton played LT before if he is the necessary addition?

So Makonzo and Kelly are still healthy and could be added.  Ball would be my choice to remove. Flip a coin on which of the two goes in.

I thought Vaval was injured, so I'm not sure what that does if anything for our returner and starting CB. No mention of him on the IR report.

Collaros out won't help. Streveler is only going to win if the rest of the team performs well and they haven't been doing that recently.

If neither Bryant or Vanterpool can play Friday, that would be rough, Randolph to LT and Lofton back in at RT.

That would be the worst case scenario.
Mitchell should get some reps at WR now with Case listed as OUT. I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do!
MOS didn't announce that Strevler would start but I think it's safe to assume. Is it bad that I kind of want Wilson to start? I don't think we are really in a position to win a cup this year. If the staff believe that Wilson has starter potential, it would be nice to see him get a full game.

It's still too early to think we can't make the Grey Cup. In 2024 we were 2-6 and made it there. Do we look like we can turn it around?

No not really but this is based on cumulative injuries at the moment. Every game is critical but the next two may determine the direction we're headed.

The Elks and the Lions also suck so we may be in a fight for 3rd based on current situation.

derek taylor says he doesn't think Mitchell will get in the line up.  cobb and corcoran time. 

how bad is Dillon Mitchell??  must be really bad. 

from DT:

My gut says we're going to get more Joey Corcoran and some Gavin Cobb at receiver. Cobb has done punt & kick returning in the CFL.

If Strev starts the defence is going to have to keep the score close, he can sustain drives and score points if he doesn't give the ball away, but it takes them a long time to march the field.  Great if they're ahead, bad if they fall behind and have to play ketchup.

That's a ratio advantage. Who gets added instead?

This game is going to be on Jason Hogan to design running plays for Streveler. If Strev is sitting back in the pocket, this game will be done by half-time. Double tight-end, RB option plays, please.

#Argos starting safety Derek Slywka ruled out for Friday vs the #Bombers. The rookie was injured and left the game last week in Toronto.

Why would they take Peterson out to add Cooley who won't see the field much unless we're going to run 50 times.

Two Canadians out should mean we may see Kelly and Makonzo added. Maybe even Cobb as a choice or some version of these 3 choices.

None of this answers the receiver issue or whether we add another import DB.  OL & QB changes still pending.

He's played very well. I wonder who is the back up safety?

There will be players added from the injured lists;

my guess is Mitchell, Kelly and Makonzo.
