With the big crowd.. atmosphere...noise and confusion...too bad we didnt have the sense to dress an aggressive dline to pressure and take advantage of all that

Brady apparently spoke to Hogan. Do we see a 20 plus touch day for him?

keys to the game Limit the run. we aren’t going to get a lot of pressure on harris, so we need to atleast limit the riders run success on first down. Hold to fgs, harris has long had a tendency to drive the field and falter in the red zone. if we can hold their offence to just 1 maybe 2 majors it’ll go a long way to helping us win. they aren’t going to out kick us after all. limit the 2 and outs/consistent gains on first down. if we can keep the chains moving we can turn this into a slow ugly grinding game. winning a shoot out will be much harder for us, so we need to control the games tempo. players to watch, vanterpool, wilson, mitchell, kramdi and kr/vaval. It’ll be interesting to see if mitchell gets half the kr reps or if vaval plays most of the db reps and all the kr reps. classic mafia roster management

I’m stoked to see Wilson back in the lineup today. I think getting our top receiver back from last year is a bigger deal than people are making it seem!

Happens all the time. Surgery has the long recovery. Gavin Walls played almost half a season braced. Schoen had that big brace on. Trying to make it through this season then deal with it in off-season and probably miss a lot of next season.
-
I see the next player in the ring of honour is covered up. Is that happening today and did I miss the news on this lol.
-
I'm sure you're very talented but I would prefer if Brady gets the carries
-
I am hoping for 15+ carries tonight... run the damn ball.
- Today
-
I like our chances at home. Hopefully we can get off to a quick start and keep the crowd involved
-
It's when the losses are self inflicted that it gets depressing.
-
We, as a fanbase, are so ******* spoiled it's ridiculous. It's been too good for too long. Some of us can't handle the adversity. I hate losing but man.. the offseason is way too long. I will never not be incredibly pumped for every game day. LFG!!!
-
Games are always exciting. We all sat and watched faithfully far worse teams than this. The schoen situation is just a real bummer is all.
-
Damn. Finding it hard to get excited for this team this year...
-
Perfect day to pound the rock. So, what, 2 carries for Brady we think?
-
used to happen a lot. guys playing repeatedly through torn and re torn tendons and similar injuries isn’t the norm in football any more. not for maybe 10 years down south, not up here since jones riders tore all the ligaments and tendons in tc. i doubt if investigated it will turn out to be at the hands of our medical team. they are really good. i bet they made a recommendation, and the bombers + schoen decided to play ama. maybe refused an mri.
-
I don't care that we are mid. Don't lose the BB.
-
And medical incompetence happens anywhere, to anyone. I am not saying there is no negligence here, I think it's a sucky situation anyway you look at it. I'm just saying medical mistakes can and do happen.
-
It's not noise... it's the reality of the season.

Thing is...he tore it again in cgy...Likely tore away where the graft was attached to the bone...have hard time thinking a hamstring graft would have tore so early into existence with non-contact....but possibly...they said and I heard torn nonetheless so either from bone or in half 6 games ir didn't fix anything...maybe swelling..that's it LD game...he made it worse to point even with a brace now he's shot...plain and simple...lotsa fingers to point in lotsa directions...fact of matter...should never been back on field after cgy injury...should have been in surgery...he won't be back next yr...if they smart...jury is out on the smart Its no different than if we braced up Bonds....we didnt because we had other DB candidates...we didnt at WR...so....well we all know what happened

What more information do you need? He tore his ACL Last year. He came back, really ahead of schedule from most recommendations for ACL tears, less than 12 months. He plays a couple of games, has a non-contact injury on the same knee and is put on the 6 game. He appears again, wearing a brace, makes it through a couple weeks of practice, and the vast majority of a game and now is out for the season, and likely until labour day next year best case. O'Shea has come out and was like, yeah he tore it again in Calgary. The ACL provides stability in the knee joint but they try to augment what he has left with a huge ass brace. The medical staff tells him he probably can't do any additional damage. Schoen says he accepts the risks. O'Shea feels that a gimpy Schoen is the best option in the WR Corps. Schoen is a professional athlete, those cats are wired differently. Someone needs to be the adult in the room and protect him from himself. Whether it's the medical staff saying that this is dumb AF and refusing to clear him, O'Shea saying I know you feel you are ready to go but you need to take care of yourself, or Walters overruling them all and pulling the plug. Everyone likes to tout FIFO as some kind of positive mantra... but this is the negative side of it. Players putting their own health at risk and ultimately hurting the team long and short term. There have been WAY too many instances of players playing through significant injury and snookering the team.

I think our OL is pretty much the worst OL in the league at probably both pass protection and run blocking right now. With Kolo it’s essentially 4 guys and with Stanley looking cooked at times it’s like 3 and with Wallace learning on the job it’s really like just Randolph. So i think that’s an issue. Probably affects the O more than we think but last week the O was more good than bad. So who knows. Honestly Zach put up some good numbers. I honestly think the D requires more changes than the O or the scheme needs to fit the **** we dress. On O I’d looking at Stanley’s replacement kolo replacement and Neufeld replacement ASAP. Guys off the PR or streets honestly couldn’t be worse than Kolo Pokey Demski Sterns (when healthy) Clercius Wheatfall. (Mitchell). It’s not bad. Solid but unspectacular group. Maybe look at upgrading Wheatfall but maybe Wheatfall is that upgrade with more reps?? Who knows. Brady. Peterson. MCI. They stay. on D. jake Korn Willie (he’s old now Also) Vaughters (same thing). Person Lawson Adams woods are solid. Adams and woods could probably use some legit competition tho. Surely you can find a defensive end Kyle. Other than Person. LBs have actually been ok. But Kyrie isn’t young. But Woodbey and Ayers look like good players. Gauthier is old. Time for Shay to get reps. I like griffin so why not see if smith can go at safety. get Houston on. He’s a cfl starting CB. Vaval is a good returner and ok CB but he’s young AF so give the dude a break. Lawson Jr is ok but surely you can do better. Nichols appears to be good one week and cooked the next. Holm is consistent. DB should be easy to find also. Allen looks ok but looks like everyone else at times also. Isn’t there a global who kicks fgs and punts?
