  1. Without question, we need a shake-up at every level of this organization. At this point, as long as it includes TC, Idc who all go specifically.
  2. I would say the only coaches who have had careers with one team, in any sport, and continued to excel either did change or they coached in an era with little to no innovation. The sad thing is the CFL hasn't even innovated in the mafia era. We've regressed; we don't do half of the things we used to, and do very little well of the holdover.
  3. On one hand I like having Griffin back in the wil pack position. If that replaces the dreaded kelly 2S pack, we will be in a great spot. That said, we've seen the starting secondary isn't good enough and we need some shaking up. On the DL, Ceresna should sit imo. He clearly wasn't 100% last week. He made 1 tackle and 0 noticeable plays. Same thing in the week before when he got nicked up vs. Toronto. I like seeing 8 dl on the roster than we can run out there for some package or another. But man we need to go get a couple DTs, maybe some fresh DE blood too. Fletcher barely plays and is completely ineffective when he plays inside. Makes no sense to me to start Eli and have Elsbury back up. Maybe he could be good in the heavy set on the edge with his speed and being certain he will play someone much smaller on the snap. But that is a pretty limited-value use out of a DI. Why the hell wouldn't we just throw on Vanterpool in that case? Or Vibert and use the DI elsewhere?
  4. Thing is, we have had similar issues for 5 OCs in a row, plus 3 DCs. The difference is talent, but we've seen all the same issues. At some point, it's an upper brass failure, not the CO. Be it micromanaging the system, roster management, or hiring decisions. I don't have any faith that this group will do any better with OC no 6, and DC no 3.
  5. I will say that I think Eli has been playing injured most of this year. We've used him far less then we usually do, the least since he's been up here. Could be he's just finally 100%, that said Logic isn't an oft used tool when it comes to roster management.
  6. https://3downnation.com/2026/10/08/zach-collaros-wants-to-continue-cfl-career-in-2027/ Some one has to save zach from him self, and the mafia from them self. We are on the verge of missing the play offs and i get this sick feeling we might once again run it back with the group that hasn’t gotten it down for years
  7. Short? check not productive? check slow? ran a 4.9 40 on laser, check. Should be starting for us soon
  8. bailey went through the same stint. it does happen and for a guy who started soo fast as a rookie it’s not surprising to see a drop off. Wilson hasn’t been good enough, but it’s not like we have a better option or like we should throw the baby out with the bath water. We should be bringing in guys and have competition for wr spots. That would help raises the over all level of play. The wrs have all struggled and some of that is the other failings of the offence making things worse. I’m not crazy about wilson, but he’s a very good player with a high ceiling. Hes been the worst of the imp wrs this year, but we have been starting 2 canadians who haven’t performed at all.
  9. you can look back and check with references to hurl, kuale, jake thomas and more. It has been a staple for years, and has never been fixed. 21 was the year sheed couldn’t catch a cold, we started out with legs missing every kick possible, the grouping of jake and too many snaps from gauthier and briggs had us getting gashed by the run until stove got healthy. 22 was the brady vs augustine constant controversy, tyquan glass cartwright and a couple other bad dbs. Yes mos instilled a great culture and high level of character in this team. It’s rose colored glasses to say that’s all that was talked about. i’m both pro sports, football and the cfl. but eventually all good things must come to an end. I think the only way one is still here in 3 years is if the other is made the goat, and before the beginning of the next year.
  10. isn’t one that I see. I’d say 15-20% today, but that it doubles if we lose to calgary next. that’s for a mafia level personnel change, i’d say it’s double for a co. Between now and the week after the gc, I think we will see some kind of news. I also think it’s as likely that one of the mafia fall on their sword for the other two, rather than just a firing.
  11. Long ago tbh. Third GC game they talked about that. I’d say right after the 21 gc. Make no mistake, all these problems existed before both gc wins. It has been shouted from the roof too by booch, my self and others. We are right back to where we sat before the gc wins but too old to grow. D cor inconsistent performances, poor tackling and execution, too soft zone and a scheme that breaks too frequently. Dl that can’t consistently disrupt or stop the run. Married to vet imps who don’t get it done, and playing way too many mediocre canadians. Kelly is just the most recent in the hurl lineage. Review the fire hall thread and see all the same things people say about jy now. The O is only consistently able to go 2 and out. Can’t protect the qb, wrs can’t win 1on1s, great rb floundering with a bad system and ol. Over investment and reliance on teams to win us games. Bad roster management, poor systems, installs, adjustments, execution and fundamentals. The difference is that this team doesn’t have any discipline any more. That 21 team has hits feet up and chilling before the start of the 4th in most games. They could’ve hung crazy numbers if they wanted. Once stove came back, that 21 team had no holes in it.
  12. we may well be, it’s close. but it blm was healthy, it wouldn’t even be close. Frankly, for an old team with lots of championship pedigree, the in ability to; step up at home, against the west, against the best, when it counts the most, against down teams, and after a team punches us in the mouth, is the kiss of death. You can’t be old, experienced, and unable to excel in some area as a team. It’s time to tear down and build new. the good thing about that is you don’t need multiple years to accomplish that. But you do need to start now, and it begins with firings. Idc who at this point. Idc who fills the spots either. Atleast one upper brass, one co, and one ast coach needs to go. a couple under performing players need the door too. Maybe trade some one like white, but a shake up at all levels is required now.
  13. if blm didn’t get hurt, we would handily be the 2nd worst team in the league right now.
  14. i feel like we are anderson silvas leg after the weidman fight years back
  15. why is mtl taking a time out? 25 seconds left run it down
  16. going down with out so much as a whimper
  17. what other coach would still have brown in? how is the booth not talking about getting a back up in? all over except the crying
  18. big stan’s gotta get his quota of holding in
  19. TC makes me think of this clip from the water boy. He runs left, no he fakes left, he pretends to fake he thinks about faking… i don’t know where i am..
  20. i hope some one does. any one
  21. brain dead montreal crowd jeering loudly while their off is trying to run a play lmao
  22. well short
  23. out jumps lmao pushed off
  24. push off, toe out of bounds.
  25. you can often be wrong as a scout on talents, skills, projectability, etc. but to be soo wrong on tangibles with a high pick is unforgivable. We drafted a one tool guy for the tangible it requires and he doesn’t even have that.
