What is a safety in CFL?

If you are referring to the position, a safety is the approximate equivalent to the free safety position in American football. (The strong safety position is replaced by two "halfbacks", since there are 12 men to a side in Canadian football.) In scoring a safety is the same thing as in American football. If a player is tackled within his own end zone or steps out of the back of his own end zone the opposing team is awarded two points for a "safety" and the tackled player's team is then required to kick the ball off to their opponents.


Where is a player marked down who makes a catch and bobbles the ball?

In the NFL the player is marked down once he has complete control of the ball (no longer bobbling the ball) and has been touched down by contact. If the player bobbles the ball, but continues to run and is not down by contact the play continues. However if the player catches the ball but is still bobbling it while he is being pushed backward by a defender, the player will be marked down once he has control at that spot.
