That ball is 12 yards past Addison.

Pretty bold to try to make a play on the ball when you're trailing the play by 5 yards.

Literally no action to pull that end to follow the pull.

Hogan's responsible for all of it, but "adjusting" when any given play half the guys on the field are useless and you can't execute anything basic is overstated. This is probably the worst group of players on O we've rolled with since 2014. Yeah some of them have been good in their careers but no one is overly reliable and consistent anymore.

We've brought in one CFL receiver in two years of trying to replace 3-4 spots.

Study on NFL players says coming off ACL players don't return to same rate of both participation and production until year 3 post-injury on average....that is the guys that last long enough to get to year 3.

As always on us this season....target the corners. I hope they get Vaval off the D pretty quick and it's just some depth chart glitch. Give Allen a shot and see what he can do.

Meh. BC is one of the teams with arguably worse roster than us. Their D and OL is a total mess.

There's 7 starters and 11 players on this team remaining from the 21 Grey Cup team. They've sprinkled in a ton of guys. Problem is they've mostly been average or worse players, especially the Americans.

Plus he’s a terrible DB. Are we a developmental team or are we trying to win?

Richie Hall era D was also all time great at turning ball over.

And here we are with what as the other options? A guy who is so busted up he can barely fall forward on a wedge play these days?

When's the last time you watched a football game?

We're navel gazing on the 35th roster spot when spots 1-30 are getting killed every week aside from our kickers and a couple DB's.

And Jake Kelly has been great for the Calgary Stampeders too. The problem with our team is we're getting nothing from our American players....due to lack of talent/ability or lack of opportunity to be on the field.

Him and Jarious Jackson have only been efficient passer/play caller together. Otherwise they've both been awful in those roles in this league. Only a portion of that contract is guaranteed and the likelihood of scooping anyone better than Collaros is almost nil.

If you like sacks and 2 yard passes. Take Cooley's YAC yards off the board and Wilson did nearly nothing against team losses when he's on the field (aka him getting sacked by holding the ball for an eternity).

Always a silly take. We know. He's played a ton in two preseasons. No progress Year 1 to Year 2. Way outperformed by a rookie pro this year in preseason games. Only thing I don't know is why they kept him instead of someone who can at least function at this level like Dolegala. Wilson has near zero upside as a passer. Not even a good NCAA QB, slow processing in pocket, hesitant to throw the ball more than 5-6 yards downfield. Let's put him out there to make sure we get murdered so we KNOW!

He was playing the lower tier of arena ball after getting cut by a European team.

Cyril Penn has done jack ****. Hamilton signed a bunch of free agents. We have years of piss poor camps in his tenure and barely any solid American prospects outside the secondary.

So you'd cut Adams/Woods, Person and J Jones for those 3? I wouldn't. Can complain about how they are using Americans on D...but those 3 in Hamilton as players are nowhere near being impact players. Average is probably overstating their impact on D...both here and now half a season in Hamilton.

No Kelly was in from the start. Bonds didn't go down until right before half. They were essentially playing two deep safeties to shake up VA and try to negate the explosives. They had Griffin playing more LB style SAM than DB style. Worked for a quarter until they started running single verticals and posts at Kelly's side as an adjustment.

They essentially use 2.5 American spots on D for special teams. And our kicker is American too. And our best American receiver is probably Jerrith Sterns.

I track it series by series, not as precisely as DT. Probably the last game I'll be able to do it though because my season starts this week. Kelly played basically that entire game...him, Kramdi and Griffin essentially functioned as the WIL/SAM/Safety but not always static in position. Griffin most likely to be in the box or blitzing. We had a lot of snaps with 4 Canadians on D. Most with 3, some with 2. We are starting 6 Canadians on O. So we only need 1 Canadian on D. Now if we have Canadians who are better than our Americans...ok. Not sure Kelly is that. Not sure Thomas is that. Also no reason to start 6 Canadians on O if we're going into a game knowing we're going to play Jake Kelly the entire game on D. But...not sure who the Americans would be we have ready to go. Allen is an obvious one, Woodbey would be one but we're kind of loaded where he would fit in...but might be more useful than Ayres being able to play 2-3 spots on D. Don't think we have anyone on O ready to go aside from Vanterpool when he gets healthy. We don't have enough American players....which is a huge indictment on the past 2-3 training camps.

Streveler has never been good at the wedge play. He hesitates and looks for a gap plus he's way too upright. He was bad last year too. We lost a game because of it in Toronto last season. If they are going to use him they need to use more of a veer, QB power/option/zone blocking kind of look out of pistol. It's insane to me to have him out there with no back, no even potential pass option, no motion across formation. In general I hate that look where everyone ambles up to the line of scrimmage, no handoff option, no pass option...D knows exactly what's coming and it's only going between the guards. Way too easy to defend. If they want to run the wedge, then it should be Wilson.
