Gauthier stepped in, Novak is putting in time as a long-snapper as well.

I was in Grade 7 when Bobby Sherman was popular. He was everywhere in teen magazines, the newspapers, hit songs on the radio, (his songs were hot garbage), he had a variety show & starred in a tv series. The girls in junior high were in a swoon over him. It seemed every girl's locker had a picture of him. I couldn't stand the guy. Then he just disappeared. his career was over as fast as it began. I read in the 90's that he became a paramedic & deputy sheriff. Now 55 years later, I don't hate him anymore. Rest In Peace, Bobby Sherman. I had to suffer so now y'all can, too.

We won't spend money on receivers now. We're dead last in the CFL in receiving yards per game. We get what we pay for. Yet defensively, we waste money on guys like Thomas & Wilson. Makes no sense.

100%. If not, we need to be grooming an in house guy to do it more aggressively. I think it was Cadwallader who took over for him in first game, he was solid, I'd continue with that. Maybe even teach a guy like MCI to do it.

Yeah, I think the only area the Elk stand to challenge us is Dl vs our OL. Even their OL is banged up and got a few changes. But that dl, they got some guys who get after it. Yeah, If he was in a flex tight grouping or even further out it's a nightmare for defences. Do you put a lil guy on him? He might pancake then still come in and seal another guy. do you take a good dl who can 1v1 away from the play? I'd love to see some Eli motion. Really screw with defences.

Not a huge fan of our receiving corps. Got a QB who wants to go heavy vertical/intermediate stuff and two of 5 suited to that. Demski is too but really only wins consistently on a couple routes and needs to be open open to have a chance to finish plays downfield. Same **** as last year with receivers. Replace Lawler with Wheatfall. Sterns is Wilson. Get some bigger yet versatile bodies, catch radius guys. Hope Clercius develops some game on the inside breaking routes and not just being good at getting the YAC when D forgets about him.

The season and how you go about it..roster..etc...sets you up tho for success in it tho...we effed it up during the yr 3 yrs running...so it's preventative maintenance so to speak

Leroux should be retained on the PR, Benson is inches away from the end of his career. Give him a final shot at a GC at home, then a thank-you card for service provided.

Keep running Eli to the sideline on goal-line plays, he'll draw at least one player with him and clear space for another receiver or running play inside.

Eli as a TE/6 OL to assist in blocking...EDM has a very, very good DL and if he does sneak out now after the highlight reel grab last week....he will have to be respected even as a decoy... It doesn't effect the ratio and a healthy ELI, I agree is better overall to the team than a hobbling Demski. (for clarification...no I am not suggesting he is the better receiver, just perhaps a better overall fit against a really good D-line compared to a receiver who is hurt)

Hopefully Laroux has a better game this week in his place. He was shakey, and got roughed up a couple times.

Tbh, a lot of people had a similar opinon of Mos as a player. And Wade.

Jokes aside, I would not hesitate to run 6ol with eli in on both passing and run downs. I'd much rather have him in vs the edmonton DL, than a banged up NI wr or Sterns(to get cooley on).

Benson was injured on a downfield block on a punt return.

Lots of options. Eli as you said. Last season there was a game where they had to trot Streveler out there as a receiver. They've had packages in the past that gets Willie out there as a TE. The possibilities are limitless!

Are they playing in the GC this week? Or are they playing their 3rd game of the year. If we're going to compare the past and learn from history....the correct thing would be to compare where they are now compared to where they were relative to the same time last year. Last year they started 0-4 after a lazy TC. Would you say they admitted a mistake and learned from it? We can go on and on about the last 3 grey cups. But they aren't preparing for the GC this week.

he's such an odd one...super nice guy...very smart...well spoken...but just an assbag on the field

i second that....and puts guys in spots, and or utilzes their best assets to make life easier for ZC....Not the Buck way that we saw the last 2 seasons

and hurt...age kills football players....well...keeps em off field more than on...Benson was never an injury issue...not sure what/how he got hurt but would a guy in his prime...or 12 yrs younger or so have gotten hurt??

Hopefully jarious had a good chat with Zach about what he can and can not do anymore. We shall see.

so he claims...but when rubber meets the road and guys are hurt/underperforming all those other "they all starter guys..thats why6 they here" still sit.....as they play the weak and wounded....bullshit artist extroidinaire...early season games...especially a home one against a weaker sister...short week...guys a bit banged up is the perfect time to get guys like Mitchell....Person...Bailey..Cobb in for reps/valuable playtime experience and if anything else...see what they can do and if they make us better...but alas no...ride guys to a worn out nub...and not groom/develop depth...I can see 2025 going the same way 2022-2024 went...with a possibility this yr it all comes to roost and we dont even make the big dance in our own back yard...worn out guys...injured guys still playing...zero depth or lack of faith in the "they all starter guys"....until Osh proves otherwise to us there no reason not to think this exact same scenario now running 4 yrs in a row plays out again dont learn from history you tend to repeat it 4 yrs running...Maybe thats why Osh and Walters aren't re-upped yet/again..Maybe Miller wants to see results...and I can see him doing that too... and end if one or both our old ends get knicked....DT too if Lawson or Adams goes down which also is a piss poor thing going on...step in coach(s) and get in his ear...or grill...It's not like other teams don't see that and take things away and we sputter or throw picks...for all this great coaching people claim we have...and we surely do...they sure suck at putting things together at times as it should be....we tend to stunt guys at times....and I dont mean running Thomas in a stunt hahaha....that was soooooembarrasing

MCI scored a beautiful TD last game that was called back on a penalty. I can totally see his role expanded.

In the same spirit that keeps listing Ayes at defensive end we can list Eli and Streveler at slot.

No worries we have Eli who can come in and make some plays

McAfee does. Dudes over like rover on pro wrestling. Not even a joke. McAfee is charisma. SAS also. He has something. I mean, most the time it’s prob just the way he says something but it’s something. Dude is a popular sports personality. I mean he’s making millions man. He’s doing something right obviously.
