If that's the case they came damn close to getting treated two weeks in a row.... might get expensive for Wylie

I'd argue that wasn't a perfect pass... anytime a receiver needs to catch the ball one handed from over his shoulder while at a full sprint there was problems with the pass.  I'll agree that if the ball is thrown with any less steam there is a good chance the defender is able to break up the play... but that tells you that the receiver was basically not open other than by making an insane play (I.E. you can't really be upset with the DB on that play)

I mean... Sure his Targetted vs. received for 2015 was 8-10% lower than the other 5 top receivers in total yards.

I would trade 10 % more drops than average (average for the best receivers in the league by yards) for a receiver who has averaged 1350 yards in the last two years.  I mean we've struggled to find a 1000+ yard receiver since he left....
I will admit that I've mostly only watched him when playing against Winnipeg and I seem to be remembering the games where he had caught 70% of the many many passes thrown to him (and that includes passes where the QB simply missed)

When he was here.... in Edmonton the guy has been an absolute beast with rock solid hands... frustrating as all mother**** actually

I just don't understand how Lirim is missing so many converts and yet obviously showing he is rather capable on field goals

Brohm missed several wide open passes where he had time and space to deliver the ball properly...

Best mod I have seen so far. Hire this man:

Round Table.... ******* amazing

Walters also made a trade for Neufeld soon after he was promoted.
 
A trade that a number of people on this board said was a bad one.
 
I gotta say - it is looking like one hell of a good trade right now (getting rid of a guy going to the NFL and a later round draft pick for a SOLID starting NI oline)

To be fair - Greg Marshall got screwed in SSK - screwd hard

John White is a player - He impressed the **** out of me in the Ottawa game with his blocking.  He wasn't running half bad either.

Gotta say Walters is looking real smart on the Neufeld trade now

Lol... argos fans in TO... nice try

Matt Nichols deserves to be starting somewhere as well, IMO. It's just too bad injuries have limited him.

No that was him... he was looking like he had potential to be the next Thigpen/(that guy from hamilton who had the labour dispute)
 
We haven't seen a ton from him on offense as of yet... but his speed on returns means if you scheme right...

Messam doesn't play Special Teams at anywhere near the level Volny plays special teams
 
That is the main issue... Volny isn't a superb running back but at least we can have a backup running back who is an excellent special teams player.
 
With Messam you have a change of pace running back who can't play special teams for ****.

You can't really compare the two
 
Shedding blocks to make a gap tackle vs. Open field tackle
 
Sure open field tackling probably takes more technical skill... shedding blocks requires size and strength (when you are trying to shed a 300lb Olineman)
 
Suber is a great open field tackler... I wouldn't ask him to bull rush an OL

I was excited to see him play last season... very disappointed by the pre-season injury

Wasn't their D just blitz on every single down last year?
