Here's to a successful Friday.

Great point on Walters. Look at Toronto: Gurley, Hazelton, Elliot and Spencer have all looked good at receiver this year. Cummings has played well on the DL for them.

Hire from the TSN panel, Matty as the OC with help from Milt and Jocko.

I was at that Rocky Butler game, we had 8 sacks.

I'd bring in Troy Smith and cut Brohm. What is the point of keeping a guy that has proven he can't get it done? Wow, he was good in High school. So was Tim Couch. Don't want him either.

Well if Marve gets us a hit, Davis another hit and we keep going this could work.

You know what the benefit of firing Marcel is, you don't have to watched him run the same system that failed in Montreal, Hamilton and last year. You don't ruin another QB. Pat Tracey can go too.

What was the excuse for the same issues he had in Hamilton in 2008 and Montreal in 2007. 3 new OL this year too.

I'd take Troy Smith over Brohm. Smith has passed for a TD and doesn't get his team's butt kicked. 70-19 this year with Brohm in. It was 69-10 in his two starts in Buffalo. See the pattern.

On pace for 59 sacks now. That's down from 71. But 3 new pieces on the OL nets you 2/3 of a sack less a game? If our protections are the same as other teams, why are we so bad? Is the talent that bad? The coaching?

Being hopeful, any chance we can establish a strong run game with Marshall and Scott? Running the ball seems the one area Marcel has had success in.

Rich, great post, any way to give more than one like?

My hope is that Marve can pull off a few Bishop type games, not the most amazing stats but a big run or two and a couple of long bomb connections and we pull it out. Plus he's more exciting to watch. Brohm, no excitement and really offers you jack.

Marcel's scheme have been **** for years. Last year, we gave up too much pressure and too many sacks. Same this year. Same in 2007 when he was the OC in Montreal. Same issue in 2008 in Hamilton. Yeah, you need time to gel but to use this as an excuse is BS.

Who the **** wants to pay $ to watch Brohm play like ****? We've been outscored 70-19 with him in the game, which is similar to his two starts in Buffalo where they got outscored 69-10.

This just sucks. All I wanted was a playoff spot and the hope we might get hot and make the Grey Cup. Seems like we are screwed now again.

Brohm starting gives me no hope and makes me want to stay home.

What specifically are the injuries?

Brutal.

9-9 should get you in. The crossover team would have to have a better record and Montreal is all ready 2 games back and has lost the season series to Ottawa. I think the goal is finish ahead of B.C., Saskatchewan and the Als. Need to beat the Als again, B.C. again and get at least one versus the Riders.

We seem a year away from having 7 or 8 starting Canadians (Mulumba or Bilikudi signing and the development of Waggoner)

I'll say Scott at RB since he's been here longer.

One of my many issues with Marcel is the inability to deal with pressure and basically how shitty the OL looks in his system. Montreal in 07 that OL was brutal, 08 not so much. Us, yeah last year the OL looked awful. This year, Bryant, Chungh, Picard are new starters. Same result. When it keeps occuring again and again, you have to question the system and the coaching. Fire Marcel today.

Sherman is not a starting linebacker. Maybe you go 3 on the OL, 2 Receivers, Westerman and Hurl and take Bucknor out? What is the biggest hole though?

How in the world does one propose this and a) suggest 4 NI on the OL and No Westerman on D?
