Loved Willy's game ... but I cringed every time he did one of those Buck Pierce headfirst dives at the end of a run. We gotta get Pete Rose in here to teach Drew how to slide. To be fair every time he dove he was diving for the first down. Love it.

I saw the same thing from the upper deck about the contacting the kicker but didn't know for sure

I wouldn't expect to be blown out at home with Willy in the lineup. So far we are 2-1 when Willy finishes the game with the loss being by a single point. Yes, I realize that glosses over a lot of issues with this team. But to expect to be blown out against a team whose only two wins are against Saskatchewan...you have to admit that seems very pessimistic.

He was practicing today. I think he is

Once it was said that wasn't a "serious" injury I knew he'd be in. He always is.

Goosen is probably more versatile. Greaves has only ever played LG since he's been here?

Small receiving corps and one of our best possession receivers (and best receiver in general) out of the lineup. Will have to gameplan around that.. Also Kearney draws into the lineup. What do we know about him?

Besides that throw to Bowman in the endzone, what jumped off the page to you? He was one hopping a lot of throws.

Positives: -4 teams with 3 wins -4 teams with 2 wins -Saskatchewan Nobody is out of it yet.

Defensive line starting to really shine. Good talent in the secondary... Could use a bit of an upgrade there. Lbs also look decent. All in all the defense is looking pretty good. JBR in another thread pointed out that we run too much zone close to the goal line but otherwise the defense played well.

And there's no reason to say one way or another if Waggoner is worth that or not. Goosen was a top 3 pick as well and he is currently not starting. Don't know why that is depressing

D seemed fine to me. Turnovers and short fields led to points. Can the defense be better? Of course. We lost this one on special teams and not being able to move the ball and losing field position

How do you deeply analyze this **** show? Lol

This is one of those character defining games coming off a close loss. Enough said

Even with Devin Tyler at tackle we still look to have a very solid lineup this week. No excuses.

You gotta think that if we are 3-2 after playing away games in Sask, Edm and Calgary...that should be considered a success story.

This year everyone seems to be beating everyone else; even Calgary is very beatable. If Burris is hot, Ottawa isn't a speed bump either. Can't think of a single team this year that would be an "easy win" or a "for sure loss".

I think what you're talking about is confidence and veteran leadership. Calgary has a lot of it. We have some but can take a couple more steps. Maybe that extra bit of confidence nails the field goal at the end of the game?

Why would Dunigan need to lose his accent? That's part of what makes him who he is.

Wonder how long before Richards is a starter?

The clock stops on change of possession. Sideline doesn't help. You go up field and get down

I agree. The tempo of the offence at times has allowed defense to regain their balance. You almost know before the snap if the play is going to be successful just based on the timing of it

I actually do like O'Shea. I think his players play hard for him and he's a steady voice in the locker room. I like Walters as the GM in the management sense. Also like his drafting so far. I'm a little concerned about our import talent though. It seems like we are finding steady players but need to be finding more impact players

Every week the defense has gotten better
