	IF BA can't go could Parker be considered at S, he seems to be physical and fast....no idea about the other tangibles.

I think ADS will do really well, they don't have great talent in the backend and he showed very well here. -

Ya as Booch stated above, I just don't see them out physicaling us along the line. They are a quick smaller D-line that can get after a QB, we should dominate this aspect even if the stack it, the way our O-line/running game is built. It's keeping VAJ off the field. The more we can grind and wear down the defense and keep the ball out of VAJ's hands the better our chances IMO. We have the ability to beat any team in this league, but this will a very tough game and really big test....we lose we are almost guaranteed to be back in a few weeks at BC place with an even larger crowd, and a very well rested Lions team Go BLUE - 
	Booch already has the cheque book out and ready to bid for that Jackson orange......
 - 
	If Dukes plays, I really hope we win..... In all honesty though all games really are important as we are tied with BC. This game means a lot more to Wpg. then it does to T.O. We better not come out like we did in the last game against Hammy!

Overall yes I absolutely agree we are stronger with CDN talent...but our D.line...yikes...although it's been hashed over and over and most people agree there is plenty of room of improvement...I wish we had even some of quality type depth along the D-line we have along our O-line. -

Another teams fans can easily say that about our D-line........ Thomas, Lawson, Schmekkle and Bennet are not exactly a CDN group to instill fear - 
	A punt would have almost guaranteed a win.... Tough call...
 - 
	Well we got Habba in.....not the way we probably all wanted though.... Thanks Voodoo for the update, is he out hurt?
 - 
	I too really would like to see Haba! But I don't think he will be on at the expense of Jackson.

We would do the same, if the Argos have 1st place "locked up" before we play them, we won't get the full Argos. -

Great win....Jackson made some plays, some good blocks...Bennet..... Hard to complain about much with putting up 50..hopefully Zach has shaken off his funk, cause dog did he look good today!! - 
	I am really surprised with Haba on the PR, IMO Haba outplayed Bennet in all aspects. If we are hell bent of all the LB's and having Jackson on the roster at least pull Bennet and insert Haba, we don't need Bennet for ratio reasons and again I feel Haba was the much better player..... Confused.....
 - 
	Amazing great win....outcome and play was far better than I expected. I am still concerned about the lack of depth along the d-line and having Bennet as the only "real" rotation piece, but at least tonight they used unconventional rushes and multiple backers and it worked great. If this can be the standard then my concerns are unfounded. Worst part of the game was this morning..as i got into the tequila on a week day to celebrate the 50 burger....
 - 
	My 2 cents...Jackson sucks to use a DA spot on him......but.....he is a really good blocker and let's be honest last time we played them we needed better blocking. One would assume the reason he is on again is that the coaches feel he adds enough in his blocking ability to offset the thin depth it creates elsewhere.
 - 
	I would listen to Lapo over Suits any game. Dicky threatened changes would come...well that didn't work I guess he will make changes Funny that Faj is a top QB in the East...I mean Kelly is running away with the top for now, but who would thought that
 - 
	BC's front 7 looks really good, I am concerned we can control them. If we /Buck figures out how to beat that front we have a great shot at making the cup

Lot's of things led to the Ott. lose, one of which was a tired front 7. That is my biggest concerns so far this year, our starters are pretty good but we are razor thin with depth, and with Habba injured I question the quality of the depth. I was hoping we would bring in an end over the bye, but alas we seem to be rolling with only Bennet still. - 
	I think with what is on that roster we just very well may have the worst defensive front seven in the league.....when you look at starters and depth I think it would be hard to find one worse. I am really concerned with only Bennet as a DE to rotate....I just can't make sense of how thin we are
 - 
	We didn't really have intensity, our offence dropped a couple catchable balls that were prob. two TD's. Our O-line could not establish a run game, we threw a pick 6. Our specials were not good enough, we bobbled a few returns, our punting was mediocre, and then defensively we allowed the underneath stuff all game again and had no answer for a mobile QB. In no league is it acceptable to allow a QB two long running TD's. Props to Crum and to Dyce, they deserved it today Oh well on to Edm. we better play "PO'd" next week

And that's the problem with VAJ, he looks like the best qb ever to step on the field one minute and the next he serves up 6 picks. I still believe BC is a very good team but any given game is going to come down to which VAJ shows up Kelly seems to be settling in nicely and TO looks good. Defending GC champs and the only undefeated team, as of now they are the standard all other team's are looking up to, yes even us..... This looks to be an exciting season with 3 really good team's and a couple surprise teams looking pretty good in Sask and Mtrl. Plus Ott could move into that category with Masoli back?? -

Clements seems to be "figuring it out" IMO he is starting to look good. Hard to know assignments but Darby looked to have corrected his play? D-line as whole unit- Willie though was extra last night Castillo-instant roster upgrade from game 1 BO-not just over 100 rushing but punishing hard running, I also noticed he used to success the patented AH spin falling forward move! Shout out to #16 (Kelly?) for some real good special teams work -

Voodoo, could you move my post a couple above over there as well. Sorry I think it was post that started the "derailment" - 
	Much better all around, gave up one sack, got pressure consistently of Fajardo and ran the heck out of the ball today....dam the thorax! Not super happy with the specials, but it didn't cost us anything. Agree that Swaray is raw but has big potential. Guy showed he can hit!!
