  1. yep. it was atleast 85 or 90% the awkward landing.
  2. He 100% has the wheels still, its just not as clear when 99% of his running plays are inside tight zone vs 8 man boxes. You can see it when he cuts back and accelerates, when he out runs the edge after bouncing out, and how he's able to get to the secondary before contact with line backers. He out runs a lot of tackling angles and forces trail defenders to take longer routes to prevent him from scoring.
  3. Management won't do any thing once you start the play offs. Coaching yeah they have good coaching. Qbing? Nah. Dominated the regular season through his career. But was on the wrong side of the biggest play off upsets. And now he's heavily diminished. He's a fraction of his former self. Carey is a good back. The wr core sucks. The ol is middle of the pack. The defense is good but not great. Montreal and Toronto are far more dangerous. No other west team is a big threat.
  4. No such thing as relatively good in pro sports. Either you're a strength of the team and an asset or you're awaiting replacement.
  5. His pro day was 4.45. And has comparable speed to lots of backs like Curtis Martin. The NFL also doesn't look for tall rbs. Tall rbs get hit low and tear up knees and hips. The average nfl rb is 5 10.5 and under 215. Harris is 5 10 and 216. This year 20 rbs were drafted in the nfl. Only 4 ran faster than 4.52 at the combine. The 5 year average 40 time for rbs is 4.49. If you remove the outliers you're looking at starting nfl rbs running the exact same type of numbers as Harris on high and low 40 times. people seem to think nfl rbs are all 4.3 machines but really Andrew harris is almost exactly the nfl prototype for rb in every way.
  6. Yes he is. He ran a 4.45 and used to return kicks. He still has break away speed. His testing numbers were great. Tremendous upper body strength too.
  7. Only good ones. It's the Jonathon Jennings exception to the rule. Yep. Since then though he looked great in the pre season. I don't think he's less stabile on their roster then any point prior.
  8. I sure hope we do not see Neufeld at tackle again. That's flirting with disaster.
  9. One play like twice. It's not at all the streveler package and he isn't that type of athlete.
  10. Pretty much. Didn't give up much but taking on a big contract. Any one know how many years he has left on his deal. Honestly I don't see how he fits well with what khari does. Maybe khari will tailor the offense to Harris. He has lots of weapons at his disposal. If they miss the play offs or Harris gets pulled again could be the end of his time in the CFL. Harris would've been a perfect fit for plops offense too.
  11. He may not have a year next year after the hits he's taken in bc. It might be a choice of football some place with a line and weapons or retirement. Not me. The 19 team was much better.
  12. Bill belichick says luck is the residue of hard work.
  13. Or Considering a trade request to Toronto lol.
  14. This is how you ruin talented young qbs. They should be rostering 3 and throwing a guy like Jennings to the wolves as needed go protect the potential starters. No one else will admit it in the cfl but the Bombers break teams. Bc with out lucky is not much of a threat. It's easy to vice cover one wr. You don't have to worry about a run game Reilly is a sitting duck.
  15. Stove Lawler Eli Bryant hardrick Taylor kongbo and Grant too. Honestly Brady ran a slow 40 but If he ran a tenth maybe a tenth and a half faster he'd be in the NFL too.
  16. Yep this.
  17. Classic plop. Imagine if they made him a focal point of their offense.
  18. I think one of the biggest pitfalls in coaching is playing too passive. Bad teams play not to lose. Good teams play to win. Deep soft zone coverage and lack of pressure was the hallmark of our d when it wasn't great. Football outsiders has an older but great article on passive soft defenses sucking.
  19. Looked to me like he just tweaked his hamstring and maybe knee. If it had been serious he wouldn't have been standing on the side line. He said going off he was OK too. I think it was more preventative keeping him out. They might keep him out next week if it stays tight and slows him down. If we clinch the west final we probably see him used sparingly in the last few weeks. But I doubt he would want to stay out.
  20. Yep. I imagine the last game maybe two could see some pre season treatment where he gets half a game or so. Brady and augustine may start at that point to keep Harris healthy. Maybe gray gets a game too.
  21. I didn't see him wiff on any blocks but I'll put an eye on it when I rewatch the game. That brutal blown rtp challenge took us from the red zone to punting and a fg for the elk too.
  22. If hardrick isn't gonna be ready soon either gray or one of the two imps.
  23. Grymes pick wouldn't have ended the game but it would've made it close. Also we dropped an easy pick 6 too. This. Our pass pro was hurt they have a very good secondary a very good DC and they've seen us 3 times in 4 games. Can't say enough about how hard that makes things. I love Bradys run style. He also looked much faster and the best we've seen him. I love what Harris brings too but Brady looked a lot like stanback but with great hands.
  24. I wouldn't say he was never a great runner but his soft skills really make him great. Vision patience hands blocking he does all the little things. He's quick fast and strong enough to run cut backs beat angles break big plays and break tackles or push the pile. Reminds me a lot of milt as a professional athlete. He has mastered the craft of his position and like you said has no weaknesses.
  25. They do have a good d and a good DC. Also missing yoshi was a big deal. I think a lot of people are forgetting the streak in 2001. That team won a bunch of those games in the last drive after under achieving. We played a team for the 3rd time in 4 games. And won all 3. Thats insanely hard. 100 percent too slow. Buck should've been helping him more which a wr chipping sliding protection rolling collaros out or rolling with an extra blocker. Some thing.
