Really isn’t an un common happening in sport, or in business. Especially when you have success. maintaining an open minded room that does a good job of incorporating out side views is extremely hard. You have to seek out smart people who are extremely different than you and accept their process. We don’t do that. We find pieces that match what we already have. When is the last time an outside person was hired and given a position above scout/position coach? Long long time. Our coaching and front office approach is the same as our free agency approach. We prioritize our end bench guys over established league guys or blue chip rookies. So we get the same thing from coaching staffs and management that we get from our players. More of the same. that’s why our offence does mainly the same things through 3 different ocs. Why our D is basically the same through 2, our teams through 2, and why each group has the same failings through soo many different people.

It’s counterproductive, and it creates a cyclical problem. Hall was using a lot of 30 front in the late 19 run actually. He used it differently though. Frequently putting 3 guys out who can pass rush instead of a traditional nose and 4is doing 3t stuff. We have not used any where near as much 30 this year as we did after the start last year. We stopped the heavy rotation when stove left, before Jy took over. Front wise, we’ve flipped between the same stuff from 19 to current multiple times. The 5 man stuff with a hands up rusher moving around went from biggie to jones. The rotation came back last game. The big thing that hasn’t come back, is cheetah front 40 where we put out 4 guys who can pass rush. But we haven’t had 4 guys who can pass rush in a long time.

Maybe Mitchell, Vaval, and Cooley share the return duties. As long as no linebackers were impacted by the moves. 🤣

Bridges didn’t impress in the time he had last year either. Bombers cut more promising talent than him both years. For a team that’s unearthed or recognized what they had or could get like Dee Alford, Mike Jones, Winston Rose, D.Nichols, Marcus Sayles etc… they also gave some real duds way too much rope… see Roc Carmicheal and Bridges…. I mean Tyquan Glass didn’t last as long as Bridges and did about the same.

Just ridiculous that Bridges got 6 games before being yanked. Everyone saw that being a bad move in preseason.

Yup, this is the type of thing we've been waiting for. Not performing to an acceptable level? Have a seat over on the bench. Even if the end result doesn't change, it at least shows they are actively trying to get better rather than repeat the same thing over and over.

I would expect/hope that for the Canadian spots...id say maybe Bailey for one but if not off PR yet likely not. Was wondering same with possibly Bailey...not sure if you have to have them off PR by certain time Dressing ZC with no plan to use him is dumb if he hurt..Christ slap him on 6 game...can always pull him off and maybe we can get by 6 weeks and save some coinage

Think they have a few more moves to make tomorrow.

Yup..a lot of our current mess...self inflicted and avoidable

So Chase Artopoeus wasn't moved from the practice roster to be the 3rd QB. Does that still happen tomorrow or do they just list Zach as the 3rd QB?

Changing players sooner would have avoided some of these results. That's all we're saying. Look I know osh ain't getting fired this year, but we can talk about blame here all we want.

Interesting. Cooley for bridges. Likely Mitchell for case. Korn and Peterson could be out for Kelly and mackonzo. 2 Canadians. Maybe Cobb gets on tho.

That’s tough. My Mom struggles with Sjogrens. All the best to your wife.

If we do it ya

Osh is .....listening....

I don’t hate the plan to ground and pound with Brady, Cooley and Strev

U would think...but we also have seen out to lunch additions too Cooley would make some.sense if used for more than 5 snaps...Jones could be used on defense...and teams...and for a Lotta reps...guess we shall soon see

Cooley takes Bridges' American spot so I don't think J Jones will be rostered. Mitchell is a guarantee to be rostered at this point though.

With Case and Bridges off and Cooley on that means one more American from the IR. Probably Mitchell, maybe Woods or JJones

yeah...I was too haha....If he was to get like 10-15 touches sure....but if added and barely used...why??? I truly expect Vpool to start...so we will have the same oline with Eli backing up...dropping those 2 Canadians makes me hope that Kelly and Makonzo get on....we add Jones for Bridges and Mitchell for Case...but that's probably a pipe dream and makes too much sense to give us our best unit with what we have...

I was going to make a joke earlier today about Cooley being added onto roster instead of Mitchell but I had figured having a guy who barely caught a ball in College added to the roster as a receiver instead of a dude you signed to be a receiver to a fair amount of fanfare was TOO ridiculous

My guess is that anyone coming off the practice roster to play would have been shown on the transactions list today so that probably rules out Vibert. Any guys coming off the 1 game or 6 game lists will be communicated tomorrow.

Wonder if peterson and Korn off means Vibert and maybe Kelly or Makonzo seeing as bridges off now Cooley is interesting tho...and why? Unless we are planning a run heavy offence...so him for Case?? But really that's again questionable...we need a reciever who can make a difference possibly...not a RB who prob won't see much use...unless it's him and Mitchell...tho id rather see Jones get on so that he shows he should never have been excluded in first place
