Believe from start to finish this was their most complete game

Yes it would be really nice if Fetts could hit the twine
Plus Lowry and Nyquist would excite the crowds if they put one in

Excellent win for the Jets. Totally shut down a good Washington team. Helle looked in mid season form. Really liked the lines tonight. Good PK and PP. Nice to get some secondary scoring. Would love to see Fetts start scoring.

Hard to know without seeing him but SAM may or may not be Canadian next year depending on what happens with Kramdi and so someone like this could be just the right fit depending on who we take to camp. Still predominantly a coverage role but sometimes closer to the LOS.

Can't see them going away from Cdn at sam especially with Smith likely to play a bigger role in his 2nd year. Plus I would think they would have thoughts about adding an import to the oline.

Perhaps. He did get NFL opportunities as a CB. I'd like to know what his speed is and how good his footwork might be. At over 200 lbs he might not be suited to the bigger CFL field at CB as a pure coverage guy. In that sense I see him as a candidate closer to the LOS.

Yikes. Hopefully not a sign that our forum will go down too.

There's not too many of use but what else would I do with my time? Talk to my wife and kids?

Another step in increasing fan interest.

Maybe its just the evolution of fan interaction.

How many active posters did CFL.ca have compared to 10 or 15 years ago?

Posters might rather use Facebook or Reddit or yell out their car window.

The only DB over 30 is Nichols at 31, age is not an issue but if he puts his hand out for $175k he might be replaced.  Dexter Lawson was the DB chosen to fill in his HB spot in a game late last season so that says something, but I wonder if Griffin might also be capable of playing HB at 220 lb, adding an extra 40 lbs of beef to the secondary would be nice considering how often they have to take on RB's.

He's 25. Age plus football mileage are two different factors. It will be awhile before we know what happens with players in our secondary currently on the roster.

Not many DB's last into their 30's. Cost, age, SMS and new players always being looked at. Obviously would be happy to get Nichols back, but until he re-signs it's a TBD.

4.57. 40. Not bad speed.

Always sad to see another forum go.  Did you or any mods get any word on plans for a different CFL forum in the future?

On the bright side, most teams have their own separate forums already.  When I used to go forum hunting I think I only found 1 or 2 teams that didn't?

Tinfoil time: CFL shut down their own forum to subdue the Johnston/changes complaints...

There was some talk of an upgraded website, not sure if that was CFL.ca or something else.
