    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??

    No MOST are....however SOME don't. Yes this is true in the office and was like that pre-covid, and I am sure is like that in most work environments. But in my experience certain individuals have pushed it further and done even less with WFH and hybrid then they did before. Management especially within the Gov't has hands tied at this time with large Unions protecting these individuals. 
    Again I am not advocating for or against WFH, I am only speaking of my personal experience, within Gov't management and some of the difficulties with both WFH and hybrid scheduling, that do contribute to delays.
    Perhaps this has a factor in Lawler's delays, perhaps not.......

    If Lawler is waiting for something Federal, good luck. With the hybrid 3 in the office 2 at home or full WFH model the Fed's are employing across departments, things are so far behind and not improving.
     
    I can say first hand that the federal Gov't has some amazing hard working dedicated employees, but in the same breathe I can also honesty say first hand that there are many who are not. CoVid certainly changed the work dynamic within the gov't and a number of employees have used that and their huge Union backing to manage to continue to get full time pay with barely part time work. It is unfortunate that some people are doing it, but  they are and it is/has caused massive delays in most thing gov't.

    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!!

    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

    Agadosi and Mc Crae are very differently built receivers, but I like the versatility Mc Crae may be able to bring.  It could be Mc Crae and that versatility are a better fit for what the coaches see against Mtrl?
    I also hope Lawson and Jeffcoat can spell in,
    Even if Jeffcoat only gets worked in slowly and only takes a handfull of snaps. The guy can't stay healthy but for a handfull of plays a game he can make a difference. He is like a NHRA drag car motor, you only get a  few passes before they need a rebuild, but damn that pass they do is high level stuff

    My 2 cents Halls defence needs pressure and our D-line is not good enough to give what he needs. 
    IF we improved the D-line the LB's and DB's would be improved

    If it's status quo for the week and we don't get any help off the injury list it will be interesting to see what kind of success Fajardo has against us?
    If we don't manage lot's of hurries and pressures against Fajardo with that o-line then I don't think anyone can dispute that the D-line is not good enough.
