It will be interesting to see where he goes when LH comes back

Yeah but on the upside Lirim will be available next week.

Oline men dropping like flies this week.

lh will probably be the one let go...
aging vet - check
overpaid - check
on downside of career - check
blue bomber potential for sure!

Do you blame them?? Their offense has been brutal

How does an over weight lemon get 2 Qb sacks!?!?

Argos still trying to get by with a little scat back, their budget for RB's must be dirt cheap, they bring in a new one every year.

GOLDMEMBER · July 26, 2026, 02:03:32 AM

BC SUCKS big time.

Doman must be thrilled.

Amazing, he's barely played in 2 years.

New BC QB Kaidon Salter looks like a smaller version of V.A.

Quote from: The Zipp on July 26, 2026, 12:48:09 AMis arbuckle better than dru brown?

I'd call it a wash. Arbuckle will certainly have more confidence & mojo knowing he's good enough to manage a game to a GC win.

Keep in mind that Arbuckle has maybe the league-best REC corps (tied with HAM?) to work with. Dru has ...

And Arbuckle got time with the QB Whisperer. Dru got... not much. I guess Buck knew things, but how much dev time did Dru get with Buck? And not like our QB coaches have been stellar over the years...

But Dru's the one that got an opportunity to be a franchise starter. Arbuckle never got more than in-season injury relief -- yes, at times many games in a row; but still just a backup.

Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on July 25, 2026, 11:53:41 PMSo much for grabbing Dejon Allen, Shawn Lemon just wiped out the Lions ROT Donovan in his first start, hauled off on a cart so he's gone long-term.

The instant that happened both WPG & BC should have been on the horn seeing who could get through to Allen first. Even if we didn't want him, we should have done it just to force BC into a bind and steal some DPs! Of course, Mafia would never do anything "strategic"... sigh.

Quote from: The Zipp on July 26, 2026, 12:22:44 AMkelly hurt now

+1 for my "running QBs get hurt more" theory. You can't take a hit like that in the pocket!

Definite fine incoming. D's need to do better. Punishment should be harsher. If you take a QB out of the game you get 50Y penalty, DQ, and fine. I don't care if it was "iffy late".

Or just make it touch football on QBs after the LoS. First touch and that's where the spot is. Then NO QB would ever get hurt on a slide again and you don't have any controversy on whether it was "late" or not.

If a QB wants to self-declare as a "Strev" pre-game, they will lose the protection in return for needing to be tackled.

Well, let's see how Lidster does from 55 on a regular basis. Plus, every NAT rookie kicker will have a game or 2 (or 10) where they "pull a Lirim" and miss 5 in 1 game.

It happened to Lirim, happened to Leggs (well, not so many in 1 game, but many more bad games). We seem totally unwilling to lose 1-2 games due to the kicker anymore. And we have major bird-in-the-hand syndrome. I can't say I disagree. Castillo should snap back pretty quickly.

Tecno · July 26, 2026, 09:14:57 AM

Wow, 4Q9:34 Arbuckle tosses a jet sweep so subtle and sweet that I had to replay it 3 times before I could see it. That might be the best jet sweep fake "fake" (?!) I've ever seen. Then a fake to the tailback too, and a fake drop back to pass!!

So sublime. Why can't we have nice things like that??

Fooled the entire front 7, and Hicks gets an easy 17Y. Our version of that would be hosed at 5Y.
