  1. lol at calling Vonk a legit OL but not even wanting to protect Greaves.
  2. Well with our current stable of non-imports, I'd imagine we'll look to protect 4 current starters and 3 other players. I suspect that if Muamba signs a new deal, they'll attempt to time it so that he doesn't need to be protected in the expansion draft. If not, that's one more spot gone. Morley won't be protected. At least one receiver that some people will expect us to protect will be left available. Then you can decide whether you want to protect Pencer, Palardy, Renaud, Swiston, etc from that point.
  3. I'm starting to wonder if Frazier sits and Jake Thomas starts at DT.so that we can dress Aaron Woods.
  4. http://www.oregonlive.com/vikings/index.ssf/2009/10/portland_state_football_energe.html Good things to read about a new player.
  5. I feel like I've heard of this Aaron Woods guy before.
  6. The one thing I like about our defensive tackles (whether it be Gilmore or Anderson next to Turner) is that they all have excellent pursuit speed and even though they're huge dudes, they're fast by CFL lineman standards.
  7. I'm pretty sure 3 out of the 4 have been on second and short as well, so he's doing a great job to prevent teams from getting those key first downs.
  8. Simpson, although I kind of want to be cheeky and pick Goltz.
  9. To all those who are thinking Hall hasn't made enough of an impact this year ... he leads the league in tackles for a loss with 4 through 2 games. On top of that, just to show you how dominant that is ... there are 5 teams with 4 or less TOTAL.
  10. I never thought I'd say this given his preseason but I'd take Dunn at LB and Sears at CB over Sears at LB and JJ at CB right now.
  11. The defense gave up 29 points, actually ... not 38. And on top of that, let's see just how Montreal scored those points. 7 points off a drive that started in field goal range after a Buck Pierce INT on the first offensive possession ... so the defense gets NO break after a tough stop to start the game. 3 points off another Buck Pierce INT that gave Montreal the ball starting in FG range 3 points on the NEXT drive (again no break) after a Chad Simpson fumble AGAIN giving Montreal a chance to start with the ball in field goal range. There's your first half. 13 points off turnovers and realistically, the lowest they were going to give up was 9 considering Montreal started in field goal range on every one of those drives and had only two plays off in between possessions on two of those. 3 points off a 12 play, 85 yard drive. 7 points off ANOTHER drive starting in field goal range after Burke's awful decision to punt in the end zone. 3 points off a 10 play, 49 yard drive. 3 points off a 6 play, 38 yard drive. So basically, what it boils down to is that they held Montreal to field goals every single time they had a whole field behind them and even when the offense / coaching staff set them up for failure, they still held all but twice. So yes, I'd absolutely say it was a dominating performance that was robbed by the offense. 29 points allowed, 13 of which were off turnovers that gave Montreal the ball in FG territory and you can even tack on the other 7 that resulted in them starting in FG range because of a bad coaching call. That leaves 9 points that Montreal actually busted their ass to earn.
  12. Honestly though, he has a point. Our argument is based on what we've been shown the past 2-3 years. Your argument is based on ... hope, more or less.
  13. Give me a break, he's not satisfactory at all. We're winning in spite of him, not because of him.
  14. lol as if we're discussing those plays as anything other than routine. Congrats, he can do the bare minimum in order to be considered a pro QB.
  15. I'm assuming Montreal wins this one based on my lack of confidence in our QB but hopefully this game is one of the good ones. Either way, I'm glad I get to watch some Bomber football.
  16. Hefney is a great tackler and DHB spots rack up tackles inevitably. That still doesn't mean he was a stud last week considering he got burnt HORRIBLY on a TD pass.
  17. People definitely underestimate our offensive line.
  18. Pretty cool, won't get much use out of it but it's a handy tool.
  19. I'm going to carry a copy of that article around with me. For toilet paper.
  20. I'd bring Carr back in place of Denmark, to be honest. But I love tall receivers.
  21. I always liked Carr and I don't really hold it against him for leaving, since it had pretty much everything to do with him needing as much money as possible to pay his mom's medical bills. But I'm also not sorry he left because look at who replaced him.
  22. Rockhill went to Edmonton as the centerpiece of a deal that sent Wojt and Lawrence the other way.
