Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on November 08, 2026, 03:24:46 PMDemski was banged up all season and if you re-watch the games you can usually see when those injuries occurred.  It has a lot to do with his style of play, he is not as careful as White or as elusive as Pokey and he tends to get hit hard quite often. 

I think with the winter off he'll return in good health and provide at least one more  season and remain a valuable contributor.  He's still the best receiver they have at making those homerun catches that often end in the endzone.

As for White, he's efficient if not spectacular, he's fast, runs good routes, has decent hands and stays healthy. He fits in well as the #3 or 4 receiver if he's not paid as an elite receiver, no problem.  I'd put Pokey and Singer ahead of him for their ability to make the more difficult catches and gain more YAC and Demski about even because of his advanced age and wear.

Demski is banged most of the time in most recent seasons. Yes it's due to his style of play, but we need him healthy at the end of a given season and that's when he's the least healthy.

I agree the age and tear have become cumulative issues. He can certainly play and be productive and we don't have a current replacement.
Time for a new start

I think Condell had a terrible first half of the season and it got mostly better as it went on. Quite a few notable head scratching decisions at key times in many games, though. Overall I wouldn't characterize Condell as being the reason we're not playing next week, although I wasn't particularly blown away by his talent either. We have bigger fish to fry to get back to respectibility.

That said, I think if we had last year's roster with one less year of aging and we had Condell instead of Hogan, much better chance we're playing in the big game at home than our one and done in Montreal.
