  1. Parker...Griffin...Allen...would all do just fine there and be better in run game too...I bet if you go look at Bonds..Nichols..and Fords tackle totals they woukd be significant less...id bet by half for some....teams targeted the heck outta him...and his tackle numbers weren't cause he was running to the other side of field...leaving his man and bailing out safety...covering constantly for Ford....and if that was the case he'd be in NFL as he'd be super human...I will agree tho...he was in on a lot of Kramdis whiffs tho if u go back and look at film
  2. I think he'd make a better safety than HB...don't need a big hitter there in this system...he also kinda regressed last yr...save for WF where he was lights out. ..he was pretty meh most yr...got targeted alot.. yeah he made a whack of tackles for a HB but that not necessarily a good thing and a lot was after yards...and 1st downs gained...and he is weak in the run game At safety tho..his quick recognition and how he utilizes great angles to the ball...I could see close to double digit picks for him Parker likely our fastest guy on team...and he saved the run of cups for us for sure...he came outta nowhere...I praise Kramdi on that play for his crappy open field tackling knack...killed the clock and if anyone thinks he purposely whiffed for that reason is full of sh!t...players aren't thinking like that in a game...especially a play like that and when it was...where it was...and importance of
  3. Be a nice thing in theory...but in actuality you gotta go with your best 5...and let them work. Playing musical chairs on the oline especially is just a bad move. I'm actually not too concerned other than at center...it's the weak link and will radiate out...If they feel nobody in house is better...bring a new body in.....I think too last year Neuf was playing at lss than 100 percent all yr and that didnt help...Stan missed those games...so we had a lot of inconsistency...Dobson was good....but also had a few holes in his game and they were kind of a achilles heal...after his initial engagement he was lost...and if they twisted or stunted around or away from him...he got all confused...I think if its Eli or Wallace there we are better....Eli is a machine withtandem and getting into second level on a seek and destroy...but his collegiate coaching and training is the rason for that...and being ranked a top 3 center in the NFL draft if he didnt get hurt Wallace just oozes 1990's mauling nasty guard...just needs to play....as much as people like to think a season on the PR or backup with minimal reps develops a guy...it doesn't..they need to play...Practices and intra-squad stuff in this day and age isnt what it was like before If Randolph starts first game due to Lofton being not ready...He wont be letting go of that spot in my opinion...makes us better there as well injuries aside...going 3 imports on oline is just a crippling blow on our defence side of ball....Let Eli or Wallace run with it and we be aight
  4. age gap...I drank wobbly pops with him hahahaha
  5. whats the league name....I dont see it umless I'm just blind or dumb...possibly both same
  6. Time for him and Walby to do a weekly show now...that be fire...podcast style...
  7. I play....nobody has a MBB league tho that I saw
  8. I concur...Lapo is finding his groove...and actually explains stuff....Suitor tries to explain the blatant obvious...or the utter irrelevamt...and fails at both...I like Ford tho
  9. No way Grifin doesnt make roster... ahh...someone else see's the forest thru the tree's and DB's making a lot of tackles also mean your LB's are not...and a lot of runs are getting thru your interior and free into second level...all of which aren't good....or ideal
  10. Dalke too highly overrated...took some liberties with big shots on defenceless guys and TSN figured he was a stud...
  11. Yeah we have gotten younger last 2 yrs...good research eh?
  12. Look at the tackle numbers that Awe got...he'd be highest paid player in league by your metrics...now go look at him...and the others...where relative to l.o.s were they made...how many were after yards were gained....2nd downs converted...how many were for 0 yards...or lost yards...then get back to me...obviously you've never graded a football game Who the eff is Marty York lol
  13. Doesn't mean they best...also means they targeted alot...they are both knee divers...Ford was one too...and those are pretty sad low tackle stats and if those guys in secondary are leaders just shows how abhorrent and crappy our LB play was...stats are not a measure of who's good in a lot of instances in football...that Lil snarky comment shows a lot of lack of football understanding...and yeah if up to me Kramdi and BA would not have started
  14. He's capable...adequate? Maybe he takes a big leap but from seeing some others in camp...I think we could do better...and it's not like we havnt put in raw rookies before..heck we have used 2 before
  15. he is the best true tackler on the team among DB's....prob team tho J.Jones is a machine....and if he totally healthy he likely one of the fastest on team too.....we cant go wrong with him on roater in any capacity With Griffin II...Parker...J. Jones and actually D. Adams on the field those are 4 guys who excel at bringing a guy down
  16. he actually was a starter in 2023 ...and originally first yr was projected to be but got hurt...his injury got Holm into lineup
  17. if neither are top notch then...why continue with them....thats an issue also....many players can be lumped into that here Kolo was drafted...in the league 2 yrs and gone...just wasnt good...2 yrs on the scrap heap and we grabbed him as a PR depth piece and then had to use him when Couture went down...and that all we had Why they kept him in after Couture was back...is baffling as Couture was twice the center Kolo was....and it's ironic as we have bemoaning the poor line play for 3 yrs now...how they older...or "cooked" and literallt the same group who dominated...save for the Kolo arrival...imagine that....He's undersized....knock against him...Undersized but athletic (which he is not)...another knock...Couture originally was undersized but he was athletic and had tech skill...and gained weight...practical weight..Kolo gained too...but was the fat weight...and didnt help at all in his athleticism....has short arms and cant keep dline guys off him whatsoever...gets over powered consistently....but there he stays...why?....typical complacency here in some positions...and obviously he get Osh firm in the tighty whities for some reason...Draft...recruit...free agent sign a legit center then...thats what you should be doing ...trying to get better all the time...regardless of who's in house or how long a guys been here You can almost say the same with T.Jones...scrap heaped him from Edm where he was dumped for a younger rookie who they saw upside in...and he won ROY and just extended a new deal....given the chance....look what happenes We grabbed him....he took Biggies role by default...and again appears to be the defacto guy until we see otherwise...why?....is he capable....sure...in anadequate sense....is he a true difference making MLB tho?...not in the least and we for 3 yrs now have had no succession plan or even have groomed anyone...status quo we go...Ayers prob will walk away from us next yr as why wouldnt he...he has 2 Older on the downside vets blocking him...again...and when he on field all he does is make plays but is being bypassed.....I will reserve judgement on things here and eat crow if for some miraculous on game one J.Jones is penciled in as the "starter"...Ayer's....as the WIL...Lawson at DT....And they take lion's share of the snaps....but I'm not a fool...and I bet all 3 are not...and 1 of the 3 aren't even on the roster.....
  18. As opposed to kolo consistently allowing that several times a game...for yrs...and has a real hard time working with his guards in tandem? Not saying Eli is all world...but he is better...and if he played...would get even better yet Kolo hasn't really won anything...I'd say there are 6 guys on our roster...active.. and pr and injury who are better than him
  19. I hope we just go for pedestrian returning first game while Logan is out and save that DI spot for a guy on defence to show what he has to be honest If I was a betting man all of Bonds..Nichols..Holm..Parker..Griffin and Bridges will be on roster...how used is another question....I truly figured somebody would have supplanted bridges spot tho...may still...Best bet it be Allen one would think as he showed the most Dream world would have Ayers..J.Jones and Woodbey as import backers to go with Shay..Smith..Gauthier..Cadwaladder..Novack...as those 4 Canadians would be huge on temas and we know Gauthier can take defensive reps and sure Shay and Smith will get some opportunities...but don think ratio wise we can do that with 3 imports unless we take away from elsewhere...which would be dline and dont like that thought
  20. Yeah basically Parker is a vet...he knows whats up from down...and good choice as if an injury occurs at a half...corner...or SAM he easily slides in any of those spots and we drop a guy into safety I guess they going the old familiar with Bridges to start, and if he just not cutting it...they tweek?
  21. Allows the cover team to be and secure lanes too...and limit the spots for a returner to pick as his seam Also...that returner gets the ball and can instanlty head straight up field unabated for 10..15 yards before first level of coverage guys are even close..let alone set up in their scheme Ryan had no touch or placement and generally out kicked his coverage...NFL...NCAA punting is a totally different game and a high hang time and distance guy thrives...same would happen here if a guy can bang it...with good hang time allowing coverage time to get there...or even have a 5 yard halo established...how many big returns do you see happen when guys are respecting the halo...not very many...if any
  22. yeah he musta got some of the easiest INT's in a long time....dude several times was just standing in space and had ball hit him right in his chest...wasn't from extraordinary plays on the ball I used to rag on Holm but he busts up plays...tho I still dont like his physicality or tackling.....but if he had any hands at all he's have had Milligan int numbers but he has 2 stones for hands...but breaks up a lot...Nichols too....if he got the volume...he'd get the picks....The fact that fall past the brainiacs like the TSN gang is that Milligan gets targeted a lot....same with Houston....yeah they will get picks....but also burned a lot and give up lotsa plays in front of them
  23. I see more teams with more prototypical punters...even some the globals...and guys who can bang the ball...as well as at times toss in a funky kick....Punter guy is exclusive funky crap...and the return results against since he took over show the results...not good is being given a spot...or major reps winning tho?...I have to disagree there....he ain't...and a few others aren't outright winning anything other than Osh's man love and bias In my experience for mostpart leaning toward what a ceratin player may like....isn't the best way to go about it talent wise...as with a coach who has his likes....and it trumps talent/usefulness Letting a player dictate that whats and why's....is not a good scenario...input influence a bit... sure Teams use exclusively them because it was force fed mandated to them to have a global...and for the most part other than the rare occurrence most dont have any business really being on a roster...so a punter is the easier one to intigrate onto the roster...We should just roll with Castillo as doing them all as he is a better punter in my opinion...
