And most of our guys are way on the wrong side of 30 too.

And last years defense was much much better than this years...

Ok... so do it. Ayers comes off for one easy. Upgrade DL performance. Does it impede special teams? Maybe but enough to sacrifice the play of the defence which is on the field much much more... doubt it. Put Jones in for either Jones or Wilson I don't really care, neither one are difference makers at this point. Want to ride ourselves of Jake? Well we drafted some linebackers this year, let them play and bam we got the other American linebacker off and have a much stronger DL.

Riders culture has been one of spoiled assholes for a long time. Always making dirty plays and whining it's not dirty.

At least 5 linebackers on the roster who won't take a snap on defense... brilliant

The other thing about that clip... man we could use a quick release like Glenn had these days. Let us not forget his burning of Davin Bush for 4 tds.

And as much as the OL isn't helping... the play he got hurt on was all him. They rushed more than bombers had blockers and in that situation it's on the qb to recognize it and NOT stand there oblivious to the guy coming in to blast him.

Hogan is basically "we've got lapo at home "

Oh my no, there's surely some ham and egger to roster instead

I don't remember if he was 2002 or 2003... at some point in that era we dabbled with elowonibi at centre.

Also 2002 was pretty easy mode for an offensive coordinator... prime milt stegall, arland Bruce, Charles roberts, Mike sellers, Robert Gordon....

Easy choice, arbuckle one more week and see what happens after that.

It's hyperbole for sure, but it's not out of context misquote at all. No one is advocating full scale, but if you have these glaring issues at certain positions standing pat is not an answer. Like centre, or DT.

Yeah osh has definitely said they're all starters.

Zach Collaros maybe needs to read Matt Dunigans book... specifically the first bit about how his career ended...

Safety left the middle? OK milt let's score a touchdown.

Mos uncomfortable because people are calling out his MO and he can't just fall back on the wins and losses to justify it. Safe to save he's feeling the heat.

So with Kyrie Wilson... I love him as a player. For years I called him the most underrated player in the league... but given his age and injury history he isn't the future... so why not work our Canadians who should be the future in there?

No one said 1 game...

That's just it... try Eli and if he doesn't work try the next guy. If you have to bring in an American centre do that because kolankowski is just too easy to embarrass and get collaros killed.

Turnstile would be an improvement... he's barely even a pylon out there.

A few little upgrades = bigger overall upgrade... seriously the margins in the cfl between winning and losing are generally pretty small. And, if you try your depth for underperforming players and they don't work out then you move on from them too and find better depth. You don't just shrug and go "oh well, it is what it is for the season"

It's more so that the guys he put that trusted are past their prime and can't be the guys he needs them to be anymore.

And you think the coach is blameless on who is on the roster. If he doesn't like what he's given from his GM he's got lots of options to change that. He doesn't take them and he is the one who is married to certain players being on the field.
