Then what is the point?

Incredible stuff. Just for the record.... I was discussing this forum with a once-prominent poster who no longer frequents here because of the whining and complaining mob, and they said they only continue lurking in order to read JBR posts.... ...so at least we have that.

Perhaps what should be done is create a specific thread just dedicated to roster talk and move all the discussions of it there. The roster discussions tend to be a majority of the communication during the pre-game and game day threads.. which IMO are not the point of the thread. What say you MBB nation? Who wants to create a Roster Management 2025 thread and keep the pre-game and game day threads clean of roster decision talk?

Every roster move for this forum is like that girl in Grade 10 who broke up with you but didn't even touch your wiener anyways. Some of us moved on.

What you call whining and complaining, we (check-back with me on who 'we' is) call in-depth on point analysis my good friend. Sheesh.

Best i can do is lots of Kornelson Thomas and schmekel

All the whining and complaining aside, this is all that really matters. Win or lose, it's going to be a great night at #FortHew. Had my traditional Cafe Breakfast at Stella's this morning, and now on to brewery tastings for the afternoon before heading over to the tailgate. We're in an unprecedented era of greatness.... Let's at least try and enjoy ourselves a little bit.

Our d-line needs to be in Adams face all night. We cannot give him time to get comfortable. And that usually means less Jake Thomas. As for the offense, yeah not really thrilled about this receiving core.... And I really hope the o-line can step up without Bryant and open holes for Brady. It's a beautiful night for a football game. Another sold out crowd. Going to be a good one. #forthew

yeah I would like to see a little bit of evolving and proof he can adapt mid flight....and agree a shuffling of the deck chairs...even if not publically announced wouldnt be a bad thing yeah both need to be spelled consistently, especially WJ as he thrives in rotation....sets of all 3 ends, as well as 3 and Adams lining up in different spots on the front would cause some chaos...especially if we keep up with the sending of extra guys too....guys will come free...well if right ones used and ones who can finish

If Person isn't taking 1/3 of Willie's reps right from the get-go I'll be really disappointed. Need to get Willie rolling and that means fewer reps. He's awful when he's playing 90%. Vaughters has more motor, he can handle reps in all situations and kick inside more regularly.

If what we’ve seen continues, in a month at the latest we should promote Jackson. Don’t need to fire or demote hogan in title, Jackson could become the offensive QC. I’m pulling for hogan, but right now he seems far off being ready for all that OC entails.

on a positive not...stoked that person gets on...hopefully he gets a lot of snaps to get into the flow of a CFL game...not 4 or 5 snaps while the usual slugs eat up reps......and safe to say I am shocked as all hell Osh made the actual move

We lost as a team so that includes the receiving core.

we definately got out schemed and didnt make any adjustments....and with who we running out tonight I not sure what to expect.....we had a good 2 weeks to prepare and saw more film on CGY...So lets see if we figured things out...or if its just good ol status quo pounding square pegs in round holes

Calgary averaged 12.3 yards per completion. We averaged 6. In the cfl you need that atleast around 8-10. Calgary had 4 players with atleast 1 big play. We had 1 big ish play and it was from Brady. Brady was our 3rd leading wr. Schoen and wheatfall combined to go 5/13 for 55 yards. I didn’t see zach missing guys in running open either. Zach needs to be better, the play call needs to be better, and the WRs need to be better. I think it starts and ends with hogan. We didn’t adjust to Calgary taking way the deep shot, or how they blanketed the under stuff. A lot of shallow flood concept and similar. Not much pa, seam busters, timing routes, etc. We need to force some bad decisions from vaj. That isn’t gonna happen if he’s un disrupted, un pressured and facing a predictable game plan. Lawson and adams can create disruption. I’d love to see them on the field with person for some reps. Put em with either end, preferably who ever is more fresh.

QB play and to an extent receivers...our group is even weaker now...so how does that effect ZC I agree tho...our dline needs to be better...hopefully adding Person...maybe another piece next week and reducing snaps for some slugs may start to help

Not sure that getting into a sprint to 50 points with Adams & Co is a good strategy. Giving Oliviera 25 touches to win is going to be tough as the Stamps can stack the box. Gotta have a credible passing game or else.

We didn't lose last game because of "receivers". What we need is pressure up front from the d-line and a cleaner game by Zach.

I guess almost being charged with possession doesn’t count? 😁

maybe you would be a real possesion guy?...hahaha They all should have a good work ethis at this level....if thats all ZC has to say then whoopity do.....and we all have heard Osh say "they all are starter material"...which we know is total B.S so a lot of what comes out of his yaphole should not really be takem for any value

The only thing we can look at IMO is that team told us last year how great of returner he is. We saw him do that and they quickly replaced him with an aging Lucky. Zach likes his work ethic. I have a good work ethic too but no one wants me out there playing receiver on Friday night 😆

he says that about everyone....so thats just babble....he never stood out last yr in TC or in games...or this yrs camp...injury or not...cant make club from tub.

Coach said he had a great camp, what isn’t said is how well he runs routes, gets open, and catches the ball.

Then good for us...but cant see him doing anything amazing....and of he does....is it a one off or his actually skill?....but we need bigger receievers with a different skill set for ZC to be succesful I guess tho Strev has familiarity with him, but Strev never gets reps so thats irrelevant too

Just for laughs, what if Case has an amazing game and surprises the heck out of everyone? Nah 😉 Also, even with DS in there, was our receiver corps terrifying defences?
