Not surprised, he hasn't been held accountable for any failings here to day why would that start now? When you can toss away GCs to back up QBs, twice back to back to no less, you aren't going to worry mid-season. The answers have always been easy, he just refuses to seriously consider or make them.

The Canadian depth we have is strong. Starting Canadians are weak. Though we could platoon shay and smith at 1lber spot, which would cost us little on the field and give us tremendous upside. If we flipped Wil to platoon NI, Makonzo can be a dime to rotate with shay and smith. Then we could start Woods and Adams, rotating in Lawson. Which would give us ratio flexibility off the bench too. That is excellent versatility with our depth. We could also start lawson and rotate with over the cap NI. Dress Bailey for the 2nd global and suddenly we have an extremely deep DL that can rotate freely. We also have a good few guys who can play inside out in many fronts. We don't need the extra NI Dt by any means. Swap kola for eli, and maybe dress Viebert as the extra OL. Put in mitchell, and cobb for case and ball. Lots of easy wins with better roster management.

Knew that wasn't it once we moved on from Brown. Everyone knows it in hindsight, but really wanted us to trade Zach for some value while he had it and go young. Then last off season basically all the young guys took over spots/teams, and the vets dispersed as back ups. At this point, I hope Elgersma sticks the whole year in the NFL on PRs and is in camp next year. If he ends up here this year, it will likely cost us Artopoeus. Chase, Elgersma, Wilson, and Strev are likely our best case scenario next TC. short of us making some move to replace one of them with a younger, slightly more experienced cfl guy. Jake and Kola gotta go. And after that, we need to prioritize young development over mediocre veteran production. Still wouldn't bet that actually happens for the most part. I think bridges is the only guy who lost his job, Vaval might finally be out as a KR for the year, though he looked solid at db. No reason Parker should continue at S over a guy like Allen. I think Woodbeys physicality would be a massive improvement for us too.

@DTonOB Can you please share the snaps for the last game at DL, and shay/smith to date on D, please? Looked to me like our best use of rotation on the DL in a long time.

I am concerned of that too. Though his football IQ is enough that he can succeed on significnatly less athletic explosive ability than he had, if he can get to a new 100% and change his game. I don't think he was actually healthy enough to be playing at all this year.

Also really effective on jet sweep and motion hand offs on general.

Unless every thing goes exactly right, zach isn’t either. IMO the Least reliable starting passer in the league

His official Status is F&@$ed

Yep you have to build around what you have. Does not matter what you could do with all the right high level guys. Matters what you do with what you have. I would say that is first failing of the mafia to install a guy who is more capable with what we have.

None of those 3 are established starters but yes. We are stuck in that awful middle ground between being too old, and lacking experience.

The 2019 game plan/play call was also brutal. Zach would’ve never been a mop in that system.

If you went down to a 2nd tier qb salary, you could add one of the top 5ish none QBs in the league. Or you could in that case add 2 of the best none linemen, or 3-4 db/lbers at a top of the second tier kind of level edit misread

The first just under half of the game was extremely sloppy conditions. A lot of struggling to keep the ball, and guys slipping on both sides. Toronto was hitting us with big plays from the first drive though and it felt like we couldn’t do the same. Brady was running hard and picked up a few firsts on first down. But we didn’t stick with the run. We ended up in 2nd and long all night. Which left both QBs struggling to keep drives going. The secondary was shredded early and often, though the front played its best game of the year. The secondary, was also as soft as I’ve seen it in years. No one wants to hit, no one wants to form tackle, no gang tackling. Seems like we finally rotated the ends more, and when we had Lawson/adams in with person, we got pressure pretty regularly. Vaughters had his best game, Wj too. But our blitz scheme worked a lot better as well. Jones had a big night behind the line and made a great hit on a wr coming way way back to get into a play down field. Bridges was taken out with no injury report, or visible on field injury. Sounds like Jy finally pulled his ass for vaval. Who was still playing too deep but tackled a bit better and wasn’t getting stomped over the top. The Argos size at wr loomed large over our dbs all night. Griffin is the only guy who played with a bit of grit back there. Holms never been physical but now every one else has sunk to that level and lower. Parker couldn’t keep his feet all night and continues to struggle to get over on any deep guy. The experiment with him at S should be over. ol early was giving up a good bit of pressure and hits. Good gaps on one play then nothing the next. Rando was lost and whipped a few times. Neuf and kola struggled especially kola of course. Wallace was solid and it was probably vanterpools best game at T. Not good enough yet but improvement. Janarion Grant throw a pass on the first drive and it went for 40 and change. Zach didn’t surpass that till the final 3 minutes of the half. He hit one good pass for 40+. The rest of his play was junk. The start was a hot mess for every one, but after a bad luck bounce pick he spiraled and threw a bad pick again. Zach didn’t come out at half until after our first drive started, and then didn’t have gear on. No word on the injury, he did take a couple hard hits, but he was bad from the get go. Strevy was significantly better, I think it would’ve been a close game if he started and played the whole night. Hogans game plan wasn’t nearly good enough across the board. We had a couple decent wrinkles late but it was vs prevent. We don’t go hurry up till like 2 minutes in the game remaining. If we had gone to it with 5, we could’ve made it close. Strevy moved around well, threw on the run well, threw some nice passes and a couple not great locations. The wr core was brutal. Demski got banged up late and Corcoran looks decent, good hands decent routes. But aside from the one big pass, the Argos kept our WRs in front of them all night with ease. Sterns played decent but was being fed the ball a lot and could’ve done more. Both kr struggled a lot especially vaval, but no one was going any place fast. Sheahan had another solid night punting, hasn’t shanked in a while. He ran a fake and sidelined out trying to dive and reach but was way too late. It was a pretty bad punt fake for a guy who’s supposed to be an athlete.

I have no confidence that schoen will be close to 100% this year. He’s back on the 6 after the first third. If we got insanely lucky and made the gc maybe he’s close for that game with a reasonable amount of rust off. Short of some thing miraculous he shouldn’t be rushed to play and when he comes back should be eased in real slow if at all this year. We can’t afford to ruin him. I don’t think we’d give up the kind of ol they’d want for value, I’m not even sure they’d want our guys. I wouldn’t give up Wallace or the rights to manu in that situation. I don’t think Eli moves the needle for them, don’t think they’d take kola or neuf on age and health/badness. They let Lofton go last time. I don’t see rando or vanterpool creating value either.

Imo you don’t fire him. But you promote Jackson to be his boss on offence pretty quickly here.

Time for some one to fall on their sword.

You have to start in order to quit

1 the corners, and secondary in general. Soft cover and still blowing deep can’t tackle won’t hit 2 ol couldnt run consistently and gave up a lot of pressure 3 zach, took a half to out throw Grant ch vaval dishonourable mention to mos and walters for standing pat on a brutal roster honourable mention, Brady, Strev, griffin, Lawson, person, vaughters, adams, jones and the kick cover guys.

Fan in the stands with a whistle you’d think with the tight gate rules they’d catch that

Joey corc. no point in having strevy run check downs out of hurry up

Yeah that sure looks like a season Ender.

Get Strev out ffs keep him healthy he’s got a bit of a limp

Time count inside of 3 minutes loss or down no?

Griffin and person too. Falls down and ball bounces out into our end zone

We should after that Drive.
