Booch

was an import for import swap....100 percent....no other import was added....no other was removed.... there is now way to conclude otherwise....jeepers

pretty sure we the only team that does this....i sure 1 out of 9 HC's isnt the lone genius....i would lean to thinking that he the lone....u fill in the blank so looking at that tripe...basically the insertion of Biggie was the exile of Woods...correct?

for better part of 3 yrs now?

I like athletes who can perform the job....and be an adequate back-up if need be.....Thomas was at one point an edequate backup....with 20..30% of rep total....never should have been what we used him as...especially the last 3..4 yrs yeah...this here...that being said...that role now should be Scmeck's and Samson's to grow into...6 to 8 snaps a game isnt gonna kill us.....That also is only while Lawson is on the IR....If he wasnt then he is an actual defacto 70% rep guy

that game last yr shouldnt have been a "missed 3rd and short" away from a win....it was wayyyy more than that....should have never been even close had we dressed an appropriate team

yeah we don't....Dress Murphy for reciever depth...see what he has....Or roster Rosery.....there's a thought....if one thinks a DT or any bigger bodied guy cant come in for that what..1..maybe 2 times all 7 are actually in they sorely mistaken

yeah you are correct...I not into middling average players....especially when you can field better. And I come from the land of you earn your spot...every week, and have to hold on to it...every week or you lose said spot, also from a land where if there was a better option, and it dictated or required a roster/ratio shuffle....you did it.....was a good land....successful land.....and most importantly not a foriegn land as pretty much every team in the league is in that land...we are in the land of the lost almost now

good teams tweak...transition and work guys in over the yr..and aren't afraid to put a new "better" guy in at any point in season...as they earned it and cleary are better as opposed to rewarded....just look at 2019 as an example...late season adding Maston and Taylor...and how it turned us around....we used to do it....what happened?....

and continuation of 2022...2023....but good to see someone else actually sees that...watch for his backside pursuit...or lack there of...or him behind the play tippy toe joggin up to the play post whistle....Then watch Adams..Fox...and Woods when dressed come ripping in outta nowhere....impacting the play or bringing a guy down from behind....and ask yourself...why???....just why??

not based on 1 game this yr...based on the same kind of stuffing going on over 2 yrs now also the younger guys on the roster won't be the reason for decline...It's "some" of the aging guys...not all....but a good portion of the aging/inadequate/no use other than special teams guys filling spots here for no other reason than that they have been here a while, and we have a hard time of late moving on, and actually trying to get continually better on the fly I want to see Steveler when brought in used in the actual offence....not just totally obvious designed runs....let him show he is an actual QB so that when he comes in...teams don't just load the box....that and actually use option when he is in...and some trickery. If ZCgoes down...or just keeps turning up the suck....Strev needs to have actually ran the offence before that....forward thinking and preperation for the unknown/ineviteable...things this staff has been ignoring and over looking

If Smith wasn't hurt, and on roster...now way in hell would Osh have flipped the ratio there...never....taking a "canadian" starter spot off the depth chart not in his DNA....he will put one in place of an injured American before going the other way evertime tho...even if they are far inferior to who got hurt, as well as any import "backup" we have on roster, or PR...as they are all #1's anyway according to him...or wouldnt be here...which is a joke in itself

he gives us way more right now than the waste we had there last yr....Ratio alone......and he has to be respected coming out of the backfield...regardless if has has proven anything yet or not...

once he is coached up...a 6'-2" 225lb+ back who runs a 4.5 40 yard dash....once he puts it all together.....

I agree tho...MCI will be fine....right coaching...res...experience.....not worried there, but he's not the back-up RB yet...but his physical skills and body type can't be ignored...he will get there

and boundary corner..then safety are probablythe easiest to learn...not RB Clericus is a stud as well...and would have preferrred we used him as 5th guy....and eliminated the need for canadian depth on dline...just the fact alone thathe scored as one of the highest in grip strength ...including lineman and linebackers is reason enough to give him the hance to be a solid possesion guy and not a fumble risk....all you want in a 5th guy

so just watched that...Is he a) truly that clueless b) playing dumb with questions c ) just an all around arrogant jagoff? How do you have no clue about what happened in that pathetic loss there last yr....you not review anything?....then say late in game we couldn't tackle Crum?...what is it? And it was obvious our 5 dlineman were totally gassed, as well as an inferior Briggs....and thats why we couldnt tackle... How do you not have a pulse on your team, and a knowledge..or keen understanding what thier injury status is in the week leading up to the game...thats something you as a HC should be all over and already implementing a plan just in case during the week....with your coaches...and not just going by what player says on game day, or when you have to produce a depth chart and just basically winging it then...like what the bloody eff?!?! we saw how well that worked in last years Grey Cup Same with non commital answers, or lame ones like "he caught the punts well in practice"...really?...He more than anyone being a former player, ST co-ord should know first hand fielding a punt when you know there no risk of getting decapitated is nothing like in a game....such a piss poor reasoning and basically a veiled answer covering the fact that once Smith went down they had no plan B I go to camps and combine preps teaching long snapping and have guys who can fire a bullet...in practice but in a game just can't do it .....so irratating nd asked about if when they lose...if it changes their process...and he had no clue....like maybe start coaching and be a friggin hard ass and see what and how they "prepared" and suggest or make a change...as these one off losses....are all too common now....some of whatever "process" we are using isnt getting it done now that we have an aging roster, and some less than optimum guys occupying spots. This is not a case per say of a coach losing a room....more of one it seems has no clue on his room and is relying too much on things that worked 3..4 yrs ago.....this is almost becoming a joke...and jokes on us

Rose isn't done....and would look pretty good on the corner here right now Money was there for Bailey and Grant....we chose tho to put it on Thomas...Biggie....Gauthier...crazy amount for Kramdi...BA....Kolo....snip just 3 of those guys....and the difference from replacing them with first yr talent easily would have covered Sheed and Grant. I not losing sleep over Yosh...as he is in decline and wouldnt have wanted him here...and especially not in 2025

oh yeah....I meant to watch that crap....thanks for reminding me...

we will have gassed out a couple guys from over-use....and having to give an interior guy extra reps outside...won't help in keeping them overly fresh either....the ol rob Peter to pay Paul scenario....and this falls smack dab at the feet of having a poor PR and selection of guys you kept for injury issues.....apparent at RB too.....KR...even receiver...Josh Johnson is probably the best guy ready to make a impact...but he behind 2 other guys that obviously have some trait...or said or did something that has a coach all giddy....I havn't seen it....and know others havnt either...

if there was any game...this was the one coming off a pathetic loss, that we loaded up our defensive front and used a masterful rotation with insane heat to not give Dru a chance to think...let alone be comfortable....coaching fail again....

would be an insane defense...but we will run Thomas just standing in place trying to bullrush with zero technique...a gassed WJ off the edge and a guy like Kramdi doing nothing out of the ordinary....sprinkle in a few Fox and Adams tandems....and let Woods rot onthe PR and then leave next yr o actually "play" elsewhere while we scuffle trying to implement another totally new guy into the mix...thats the tried and true lose multiple cups in a row way

sure...but we won cups in spite of it then....2021 is a long time ago in football....we not winnig in spite of it now and the switch and lightbulb moment should have been after 2022 cup...and if not then midway of 2023 sesson when a lot of this complaining started...and now here we are in 2024...teetering on the edge if thigs dont change quickly

agreed...on both.....we need some of what he brings....but we have Thomas blocking him...or Bennett...Kongbo....cause Osh thinks u just cant stop him....friggin joke put Oakman into the DI spot on the DB we rarely used and add him to that first game mix....Jettison Thomas and replace with Kelley when he back....or any other Canadian DB type with a heartbeat...problem solved and u have an insane crazy front

because their staff loks past tenure and yrs in league...and go with talent and hunger....not complacency and familiarity....

he's stubborn....smug...and arrogant....blatantly obvious....he needs to start coaching like he played....like a real prick and bordering on the bounderies of the rules.....this schtick now has got old and ran it's course sadly when you refuse to repopulate with talented youth and let go of your pet's
