Richie Hall preached making plays on the ball and behind the LOS. Now we just watch the other team run circles around us and hope they miss a couple throws. The aggression has been coached right out of the first two levels of this defense in the past 2 seasons.

It's sad watching Streveler play now. His game was built on athleticism, not being a great passer. And he's probably never going to be more than about 80% of what he was. He's not enough of a threat to do anything with his legs so there's so little attention paid to him by the D and way less space for the receivers to operate. And he's not accurate enough to manage a game to the point of being a winning QB in those conditions against a good team.

**** if they are going to review onside kicks it will basically be impossible to recover one legally.

Yeah I think this was right where Walters head was. But the thing is when he goes off he draws attention, and then the next game it's someone like Ontaria Wilson popping off or Wheatfall type guy.

Streveler looks great vs prevent.

Important factor with CFL "cap" is that unless money paid in bonuses or guaranteed it hasn't been counted yet. More than could have afforded Lawler. They made a decision to move on. And we have no receivers that suit our starting quarterback's style.

Yeah he is not a cerebral guy on the field. Writing cheques his arm never could cash and his body can't anymore either.

Collaros turned 37 two weeks ago for the egregiously ignorant trying to say he's about to turn 39.

Well as long as you believe.

This has been an issue as long as Collaros has been here. He wants to take shots. Even on the plays he gets cranked and the second INT there's a guy on his read side with nobody within 10 yards of him. The hot routes are in the scheme.

Yeah just get rid of the sacred cows. They've been doing it gradually but I think they need to take some control on guys who are even all-time, HOF players. Like are we keeping Stanley Bryant at LT until he decides at age 72 that he's done? I think one of the two likely walk and do something else for awhile. Not thinking they'll go directly to another CFL team in the same role. Also not sure Dinwiddie is solid. If he makes it to next season he'll be the longest tenured Argos head coach since the 1940's.

Well if they don't want QB's taking head shots seems like a pretty clear decision to make. But they also don't seem to care quite enough to take that step.

So who's the hotshot GM and Coach combo you want to lead us to the next era of glory? There's a lot to lose in blowing up a front office that has proven itself more than capable of fielding dominant teams. I mean in my entire lifetime we've had only a handful competent GM's and head coaches. I think it is quite likely that the key people in that front office are ready to move on though, and that's a big part of what happens next. Doubt many people in real life have done the exact same job for 12-13 years. It's pretty unusual.

Tim Burke was extremely unlucky. Just needed another decade.

Well most recent ACL example I'm acquainted with was Gavin Walls in 09 finishing that season braced then working back from surgery with Montreal. One of my former athletes try to tough out a CFL career with constant ACL injuries with the Als. Like you said more common on lines, but Rourke's brother played most of last season for Indiana on a torn ACL braced. Obviously not possible in every case. Need stability and ability for movement. I luckily have not had knee issues, but near constant ankle and shoulder issues. I'm not saying you're wrong. You're attacking this situation with one point of view that everything the Bombers do is wrong. Your bias makes everything you say basically meaningless at this point because you can't look at anything with any moderate logic.

Sask is constant rotation on DL. Which was also a strength here in the 2016-22 era. They also use way more Canadians on D than we do. Start 3 and regularly use 5.

So you're fixated on the extra week? The option was to try to extend this season with bracing. And has been done often. Season is well past halfway point. Tried it, didn't go well. Lost a week. No further behind. I'm sure Wade Miller would accept your application for team doctor or head of athletic therapy.

ACL is a ligament. That's what the L is. I'll just assume you're winning the Powerball based on how great you are at predicting the future.

People try to look at it binary, injured or not injured. These injuries often never get close to 100%. Everyone is playing with something, everyone has vulnerabilities related to previous injuries. Cleared to play doesn't mean anything close to back where a player was pre injury. And at a certain point sitting out another month doesn't guarantee that you're any less vulnerable....that's when they are cleared to play. There's guys in every organization that get destroyed by lower body injuries, shoulders etc. Mailk Henry went from a torn achilles to ruptured patella right when he came back. Where's Kian Schaffer-Baker? Comes back for a couple games and gets hurt again. MBT was playing with no elbow for 4 weeks because Montreal has no other QB. Davis Alexander is probably going to have to come back again before he's recovered from a soft tissue injury. It's a very hard sport and in any sport athletes get into a cycle of injury once they start having serious ligament and tendon injuries at joints. Do you just tell every person who tears their ACL to retire?

Breakdown and wrap at the waist. Guy wrapping the shoulder pads and bashing heads is going to tell us he’s making a form tackle?

Terry Wilson. They love him so much they'll trot anyone else crippled out there to avoid playing him in any situation.

Yeah I know but you're not going to find a Canadian who can play in Week 15. Holm is about the only guy who ever makes a play on the ball in coverage.

I mean if Collaros is down I'd be surprised if they win more than 1 more game. We don't get to play BC or Toronto again. Just Ottawa once. Montreal at home when we might already be out of it.

They were running right at Woodbey and Vaughters today. Not even sure either made a tackle. That's all LB's are out there to do vs the run. Flow to the ball, make a play.

Ok now analyze the other 20 spots on the field where we lose every week. Well you don't build a roster from scratch every year. But they should turn the WIL spot into a Canadian one because it's not like the Americans they are using there are making any plays.
