thats what we said about McCrae and Parker last year. From what I've seen impact returners show escape abilty early

Have to like how Adams/bc react to high pressure. Going to the short quick passes.

Ya, but CGY is playing BC correctly: you need to harass VAJ early and often and get his head rattled.  We set the VAJ-destruction template in the '23 WDF.  If CGY can keep it up, they have a shot.

CGY winning helps us.  BC is the fave to win the W, so any team that can steal 2 points from them is a good thing.  Even though I picked BC to win...

Boy it's nice seeing BC Place full!!  What a good thing for the CFL.  You can even see the players (on both teams) responding to the atmosphere.

Very weird, that CGY challenge was a not-enough-evidence IMHO.  If that one angle they showed 3 times is the only angle then you cannot see enough to overturn.  Weird.

My opinion is he got possession at the exact same moment the foot touched the SL, but that's from inference on when the catch would be made.  You can't actually see it on camera.  Thus if it was me I'd say go with what the on-field refs saw.

Weird

Yup, all the star returners in the last few years basically do something big in their first couple of games.  They don't plod along for half a season then suddenly become Janarion.  They flash the "it factor" almost immediately.

That's why I think we were all excited about Smith in PS.

Wow, what's it with top-level receivers doing the dropsies on mega-deep feathered-in catchable sure-TD passes when they are wide open?  Tons of that in week 1 and 2!!  Makes me thankful Demski made that deep catch for us in week 2.

That one Mitchell 17 dropped for EDM last night was inexcusable: would have won the game probably.

You could be right, I'm willing to wait to find out.  A special gift it is to be good at that position.

Hate to say it but the Bombers aren't playing to these teams level yet.
