The whole DL should be replaced. Jefferson has had one great game this season. Doesn't get off the line, trying to read QB eyes. Vaughters has done basically nothing and is now being run at. Major off-season mistakes.

Our D is just alright. A good to great D turns the ball over and can get pressure with 4.

Mitchell, Wheatfall, Neufeld, Kolankowski, Corcoran, Streveler, Wilson bring nothing to the O. Eli and Wallace aren't capable of playing every down. We basically don't have a single OL who is above average. Vaughters brings nothing, can't even hold his position so the RB has to run around him like a pylon...at least that would give the rest of the D a chance to flow to the ball. Jake Kelly and Vaval are total marks if they are on the field on D. Athletes who have no ******* clue what they are doing. That's not even getting to the injury list or talking about Bryant and Jefferson who are not even 1/10th of what they were. This is a bad team. The fixation on Jake Thomas as if replacing him makes some kind of difference in winning and losing is nuts.

The main point is that the team isn't good enough. Using Thomas as a focal point for that is nuts. Our OL is a mess, we have probably 2 CFL level receivers dressed, our backup QB's are borderline useless as passers and football players currently (Streveler obviously a weapon pre knee explosion), we have basically no difference makers on D aside from Nichols, Holm, Kramdi. Jones is an average MAC. Griffin is a piece, doesn't take the ball away. Nichols doesn't really either. But yeah, Jake Thomas and 50 of his best buds....horrible team.

Thomas isn't in the top 10 worst players on this team regardless of nationality. He's just an easy target to make a point because he's an old, white Canadian guy with his gut hanging out. Vaval playing every down at corner as a total mark for opposing offense is a way bigger problem in terms of winning and losing. We get Sask on their own 1, two plays at Vaval and they're 85 yards down the field. I wish Jake Thomas was the worst player on this team because we'd be in contention then.

Danny McManus really should have been gone after 2023. They have struggled to back fill Americans since 2022 aside from a small group who are CFL quality players.

But you get into a froth about that. What is Jefferson doing? What is Vaughters doing? What is Kyrie Wilson doing? Thomas is basically a gap filler that sticks on his assignment. Worrying about the 20th, 25th, 43rd player on the roster when our top 10-15 guys are outclassed on a weekly basis is missing the forest for the trees. This is a bad team because those top guys do not deliver and do not exist in areas like receiving corps, LB corps, Canadian OL we have are terrible.

If you're going to blitz a veteran QB, you're going to get torched in this league. You need to get pressure with 4-5 (5 would be with a blitz).

D is pretty average. Can't make any plays. Our starting QB gets taken out with a headshot and we respond by getting walked down the field all half on D.

So do both things? Get no pressure and don't cover the receivers either? Just showing that to Harris before the snap then he can just lob the ball out there to someone wide open.

Willie takes one step off the line and quits on the play. Ridiculous.

Just given up running Cover 0 every 2nd down the last two drives.

Running Cover 0 is so ******* ignorant.

Just a god awful decision.

I mean he was unconscious from a head shot before he even hit the ground. What's to update? He's still alive and in concussion protocol.

No tempo at all. Better finish this drive because could be the last time we get the ball before the last minute.

No you wouldn't. That Robustelli play is how getting burned in Cover 0 looks. They need to move Harris off his first read and off the playside. Can do that with pressure or coverage. The most egregious situations on this team IMO are Vaval and Jefferson/Vaughters. If we ever do get pressure it's usually bull rush from Lawson or Thomas.

If they have Vaval starting on D next week that would be complete insanity.

You can't play DB without locating the ball.

Corner gets beat by 20 yards in Cover 0.

And that's why we aren't blitzing Harris.

Streveler is a great QB on Instagram. Yet to show it in a real game.

Doug Brown just savaging Streveler on OB.

Oliviera highest paid blocker in the league. Let's have him lead block for Chris-Ike on a shovel.

Wilson needs to get to the stick. Not run back 5 yards.
