  1. Totally. They soo proudly advertise the 25 years of Friday night football but this is the effort that goes into it. Early this year they had some great pre game stuff with Matty breaking down x n os like an nfl broadcast. Give us more of that.
  2. Friday night football and what is tsn doing right before the bomber game? Frickin tennis. Tsn is such a trash partner for the cfl. I could see both backs combining for almost 200 yards from scrimmage. More like a sane amount. And as much as I love lawler at this point we don’t miss him. Ellingson for lawler is no loss.
  3. Doubling down on Augustine.
  4. 100%. This is Augustine’s game to shine. I expect his lack of td streak to end. Went all in on bombers in fantasy.
  5. Next year he’s holding a clipboard in an nfl camp imo.
  6. Elk hunting season is open.
  7. Another wrinkle we used to be known for and have struggled with this year, (we had a great game vs the elk last year using this concept) is the screen off inside zone run. One of the most creative screen play guys and one of the most effective air raid coaches in football is mike leach. You can really see the difference in execution with how much space he creates for these guys on screen plays. In his first stint here, the plop offense heavily rotated around blink and sellers catching screen passes and making gains with them.
  8. A bit of what we do / have done for a while with plop and buck. (though buck has certainly put his own spin on things and diversified the offense greatly.) We run a Tight zone scheme (most canadian teams run tight vs true inside zone.) with our OLs first step being down field rather than 3 steps play side. We aren't an RPO team, but the jet sweep wrinkle off the inside zone run is one we all know very well. Running zone with 5 ol vs a 40 front is a bit more difficult. Which is why blocking from our wrs is soo important. We frequently use woli to chip the end like a TE down south, allowing us to create 2 double teams and send a 2nd ol down field. Opening a 2nd gap, as well as the option to bounce the run off tackle if its open. This year we've had difficulty in getting our OL down field, which opens the gaps and allows our rbs to hit holes hard and get to the 2nd level quickly. Teams are using different run fits against us, playing inside leverage on the DL and bringing the sam and defensive half backs to the edge of the box to fill off tackle gaps. Here was Chip kellys answer back in his Oregon days. The video begins at 3:30. The idea behind outside zone and wide zone run schemes is that you let (or if you cant stop) the defense have inside penetration, with your linemen taking an out side play side leverage. The run goes laterally, crashing the rushers into the blockers. The difference between the outside zone and the wide zone is you look for a cut back lane in the wide zone. The outside zone run normally ends at the side line. In our sweep packages we block it as a wide zone. The outside and wide zone runs work better in the traditional inside zone vs in the tight zone, as the defense begins to key off the lateral steps. But teams in the cfl don't run high level multi layered zone schemes like in the south. So defensive fronts crash down hard and would be prone for a considerable time to giving up outside leverage.
  9. Yep, its very uncommon but some guys can only play inside or out side. Usually an out side guy can kick inside and most inside guys can't play out side. Gray is one who can play both but isn't a road grader at guard but is best long term at rt imo. Yep, and can set up some nice counter trey old school power runs for big gains.
  10. Gold. It’s the plagueship vs the back to back flagship.
  11. He’s been on the pr. He’s a rookie.
  12. Thus far the back to back champs are un trappable. I hope it continues. ellingson hurts but I feel like Bailey schoen and woli can all fill in for his touches. Harrison adding a real deep threat could be huge. This game is likely to define the roster at wr when every one is healthy. jefferson out really hurts. I don’t see any way we can add what we lose with him. I expect to see a whole lot of hansen at de.
  13. If they added standing only tickets in the run hut area capacity could easily grow to 40k
  14. Don’t they have to be symptom free and a negative test for a period of time before playing? I feel like they have no chance of getting that game off. The numb skull and cross bones
  15. Idk how they played through it. I did that once before pitching in little league and napped soo hard after I almost missed my start. Never been more tired before a game in my life.
  16. Evening going back to kamau incompleterson Wayne mcgarity etc. it’s a real short list of vet wrs that worked out.
  17. Agree the pure stinginess with points and the versatility was insane.
  18. Ikr. ellingson has been a beast. We finally signed a good imp vet we and made it work!
  19. Dickerdoo says fajardo is 50/5 on starting this week. If they continue to limp his corpse through games they are going to keep the basement in the play off picture all year.
  20. After a partial rewatch yesterday (all offensive plays) Dobson is undoubtably significantly lighter than his college days. That said he might’ve been heavier than listed in the first place at Maine. But either way he isn’t a tackle.
  21. Just when you think the riders can’t be more of a dumpster fire… https://3downnation.com/2022/07/18/saskatchewan-roughriders-cancel-tuesday-practice-due-to-covid-outbreak/
  22. He 100% looked lighter when he got to Texas. Then to now idk. A build like his might take a drastic shift to be noticeable too. at the end of the day he isn’t a tackle. No matter the weight.
  23. Some times the coach that brings you to the dance isn’t the one to get you over the hump. This cats roster is low on or out of time to compete. He also came into a contender they have to look long and hard at if he’s the guy to rebuild with. id only can a coach when I felt like I could get a better one. Idk at this point. Orlando is a real good coach and I’m glad he didn’t end up defecting to the ncaa. Hard to say if he’s the guy to take them all the way or rebuild.
  24. Tommy this year Orlando next year imo.
