is VA a fair weather QB?

He kinda always has been.  He seems to have zero touch on a wet ball.  And he seems incapable of adjusting.

There's a reason we'd always beat him when he came to WPG in Oct/Nov.

Crum might win the monsoon bowl.

I have no idea why Dickenson The Greater keeps up his going for it on 3rd & medium/long.  Literally no other HC will do that.  4 min left, 8 points down, in your own end, kick it away.  He's been doing this for years now, and it's a big part of why they lose.

And why are they chucking it 30Y downfield when they only need 6?  In the wet, when they haven't been able to pass all night.  Like huh??

4Q1:27 CGY Jones gets a wicked reaching/leaping catch on the rail.  Look familiar?  This is Kenny's first big catch in the '24 GC... except they took Kenny's away.  Toe dragging, but heel then comes down on the line.

What's the difference?  Smith taps his 2nd foot's toe down before his other heel hits the line.  That's insane concentration, BTW.

I think this illustrates how stupid the Kenny rule is.  You can literally do every thing in the world other than touch your heel on that rail and it's a completion.  But heaven forbid your heel touches first, boom you're OOB and it's incomplete.

I think every catch you make where you tap a toe in-bounds should be a completion.  No exceptions.  The Kenny GC catch should have been good.

Hey, why is OTT allowed to wear all-black uniforms?  Isn't the visiting team required to wear their white away jerseys?

Teams are required to wear contrasting jerseys (and different colour pants).

BC Lions do not have a white jersey
Winnipeg Blue Bombers (2012-2015) did not have a white jersey.

Some teams, including the Bombers, have worn white jerseys at home.

The rule is clear- you have to have possession and land in bounds with at least one foot inside the boundary. You land with part of that one foot over the line incomplete pass. Pretty straight forward

You're not understanding.  In both cases the player lands with a toe in-bounds (the "toe drag").  And the heel of the same foot is not yet down on anything.

In Kenny's case the same-foot heel then, a second later, comes down on the line.  Ruling: OOB, no catch.

In Jones' catch the 2nd foot toe-taps down on the line and then the original-inbound-foot heel comes down on the line.  Ruling: in-bounds, completion.

The only difference between the 2 is the CGY guy got another body part on the line paint before the original foot does.  And the rules as written differentiate between these two cases.

It's an insane difference that doesn't make any sense at all.  I submit that both should be a completion and the rules should be rewritten as such.  Any toe-tap within bounds without anything touching the line at the same moment (or earlier) should be complete.

I guess I could provide stills if what I'm saying isn't clear.
