DON'T abandon the run, if you are down, still run, if it isn't working, block harder, try a different gap/misdirection, heavy sets, whatever.....but don't abandon it......I want to see time consuming punishing drives...We are making it too easy on opposing defensive fronts...be nasty, play till the whistle, push the pile...be the hammer, not the nail.....and stick with it!!! On defence communicate, communicate, and communicate some more and stop the self-inflicted harm.....

Keys to the game big Chris becomes big time Chris. He had a good game in week 2, expectations for him should be high when starting with prep time. This is a big chance for him, only so many left. back to bully ball. Brady has been as good as ever just hasn’t been able to get the ball consistently. Gotta keep feeding Brady and mix in Cooley. That’ll keep us out of second and long. new look D, a lot of shuffling with existing pieces. They know well how Toronto whipped them and should be prepared to punch back. Players to watch, secondary, Lofton, Corcoran, jjones, and person. plus, vaval, still has his job if he can refind his early success maybe break one and secure the ball maybe he will keep it. and Hogan, who is pretty close to the hot seat with the fans at this point.

Wade Miller sounding arrogant? The devil you say.

Luke's in town;

If anyone here is interested I have 3 tickets in section 125 including parking available for tonight. If interstates shoot me a PM.

Anderson asked him about the possibility of a delay tonight and when a potential announcement would be or if there was a plan if it needed to be rescheduled, say the game being tomorrow. Miller came across as brusk in his answer about how they had monitoring for the air at the stadium, how things were getting better and how he wasn't going to even talk about a plan for a potential postponment. Anderson seemed taken aback and stated he was asking because they of course were being asked by listeners. To me, Miller came across as arrogant like he and the club were handling it, there was not going to be a delay and why are you asking me about this. As I said, my opinion, I thought his tone could have been less arrogant and why are you questioning me in nature and more positive and understanding considering its a valid concern many fans have and you know Miller is running a business.

My weather app is always lower than the Govt of Canada site for some reason. https://weather.gc.ca/airquality/pages/mbaq-001_e.html Would think Apple weather would just pull from there but who knows.

It's down to 8 at the stadium and dropping hourly. No risk to the game being played at this point. https://map.purpleair.com/air-quality-standards-aqhi-plus?opt=%2F1%2Flp%2Fa10%2Fp604800%2FcC0#11.02/49.863/-97.1222

Interesting, how'd he come across like an ass? Was he disregarding the importance of the smoke or something?

Like I said could be different by the stadium but once the sun starts going down the air quality tends to also. Although not always. We will see.

https://www.cfl.ca/weather/ 8 and above is when it's supposed to be delayed or cancelled.

But I’m in the north of Winnipeg and the stadium in the south so who knows.

Crazy. My weather app says it is a 7 but I’m not in the south side.

Its 12:20 and purple air has the air quality at a 9 at the stadium (which is down from the morning). Needs to be 7 or lower. Weather network has the city at 10+. Miller was on CJOB this morning with Hal Anderson and was asked. Basically said they have monitoring at the stadium, things were getting better but honestly imo came across as a ****.

Air quality is a 7. The other day it was a 9. Regina game got postponed at a 6. I think maybe when sun goes down the game begins.

Had some Echo Bike intervals on deck in the garage this morning and while I didn’t notice a smell heading out there, I’m certainly feeling it now - it’s not pleasant. Hopefully things improve significantly because I couldn’t imagine playing in that right now.

Yeah. He didn’t get much of a shot down south because he isn’t a freaky run jump tester, but he’s really quick and plays more than fast enough for S in the cfl. He played really good ball at a high level in college but was still just scratching the surface of his potential. You can see a lot of his play is on instinct, hustle and grit. He showed a real quick grasp of the game up here in camp and ps too imo. As much as we have nuance that guys get stuck on, the cfl is more tailored towards defensive guys who are instinctive like him. I think he could also be a great fit at full time wil doing all the cover stuff, and at sam. Wil has been evolving and the likes of Chris jones thought it would become more of a second Sam, but really it’s more like a SS down south. Big enough to engage with linemen and toss any one smaller, but also able to run with and cover guys. We don’t need a lber lol or a rookie at sam, but I would love to see a big physical Safety that makes guy hear footsteps and look both ways before crossing the middle.

Ya the smoky smell and air quality aren't always linked. Was really visible looking towards the buildings downtown this morning. Hope that wind keeps blowing!

yeah the sky definately was hazy for sure....but didnt smell it

I think we all might just be getting used to it. On my drive to work I could clearly see the smoke in the distance. But I couldn't smell it at all. At the start of the fires it was like I could taste the smoke it was so pungent.

🦌

agreed...I just been out doing some work out in yard for a couple hours..live in south end of city...and to be honest I never even noticed anything, or could smell smoke....not sure if just accustomed to it and cant tell now...but I think it will be played...maybe delayed a bit at worse...but played

Woodbey for a bigger guy is uber athletic....He's be more than capable repping at safety...SAM...Corner along with Will....need to get these guys like him and Allen into lineup for the litmus test
