Yeah for Oline Yosh just entered his prime yrs really...especially when as mentioned he playing with the same guys for pretty much 4..5 yrs now...Also same with Neuf...he a few yrs older but as a guard he is in same place...right in the thick of his prime yrs....once we got depth here, and didnt have to keep rushing him back early...cause we basically had to...he's been a rock

Bailey in that MTL game was on a mission...he had about 3 really punctuating blocks in that game

could see him slide into coaching here as well, with his other gig well established

They were also anticipating snap count....and at times to me looked early...U saw T.O switch up their cadences...and basically nullified them and caused some penalty issues I'm not overly concerned with our aging guys on the O-line...a good tech sound O-lineman who hasn't had injury issues in career (Bryant never has...Yosh few if any) can play a long time...Biggie is the guy we need to be trying to groom a new guy....he has been fine so far...not a dominating difference maker, but I will let season pan out and see what we look like in Oct....and what he did....he has been playing more out of the box this yr, or at times a pure rusher....so hard to tell where he is at in regards to losing a step....tho when we had turn overs and the defense flipped direction to run blocks...he didnt look like he lost a step in my opinion...still fast for a bigger body

Biggie isnt the only guy doing that tho....the dirty play in my opinion which is still happening is the blatant target to the head on a guy wrapped up with the second tackler coming in to do the finishing

or not at all....step up in the pocket and fire an accurate pass....hmmmm....neat concept

Kelly only played when Swarmay got hurt...I think that's the only reps he's seen on defence other than the one game we put in a lot of the backups after game was well in hand Our line would be better I think with Eli at center and I bet he takes it over at some point Gray was fine last game...and has been solid for 2 yrs now ..plus he gets under the skin of defences as he is always in second level annoying guys

Just look at Trever Harris' career as a whole....high percentage completion on short lil dumpy passes...lots of yards between the 20's.....minimal TD's and an overall losing record

The linebacker they released a week earlier would have been an even better signing....but we didnt bring him in

doubt it...hes gonna be 30....

it's more than looks like....he is

The age thing is kind of misleading and is kinda skewwed a bit. Bryant's age of 37 effects the average quite a bit but he hasn't shown any let down...and really if he didnt get screwwed out of the MOL in 2019...he would be on a streak of winning it. Mike Benson at 36 also brings it up, but as strictly a long snapper...big deal...We have ZC at 34... and who is saying he looks old and declining??...we may see that at 37..38....Trevor Harris age range....but again that brings up the average...With Biggie and Neuf at that age too but where has their play hurt us? Briggs and Yosh at 33..One is a role player...other an all-star....Castillo is 32 with the Jeffs....and who wouldn't want them on their squad...If all 3 were to be dumped they would be starting on a new team the following week...and Jake...who I think is on his last legs this yr and will be done...and hopefuly his role scaled down in favour of Lawson Rest of the lineup is 31 and under with the majority in the 23 to 27 age range.....old and aging is way over blown

yeah wonder how long we do the 7 oline thing...maybe until Miller is back....and then we just go with the 6 best... its been a couple yrs of it tho...not just these games

Teams would kill to get their paws on one of Dobson or Eli....Both of whom would start anywhere in league right now Biggie as well is not playing a traditional MLB role....our scheme asks him to do a lot of other things other than just play inside the box and spy RB's and QB's....Just cause he isnt piling up the sexy stats doesn't mean he's not being useful...is he 2019/21 Biggie...nope....But he is still getting it done to not hurt the squad...plus he's like an on-field coach....but he needs to clean up some of his tackling tchnique as he has made some ugly whiffs...mind u he's not alone at that up to now

Exume will replace Kelly....only reason he is on roster is due to injuries....so this early season experience is huge in case someone goes down later in season...BA is backed by Hallet, who will be backed by Exume Mauro for Beeksma makes no sense at moment as we need to run 2 globals on roster...Beeksma is depth and just that...depth in case we lose Gauthier,Briggs or Cadlwadder...If anything I'd like to see Mauro bumped for Karamoko...He can offer the same as Mauro on teams, and can rotate in on defence and cover at HB or SAM even.....he also was used a bit edge rushing in pre-season much like Mauro...dude is uber athletic.

and some of our "old" players were league All-Stars and 2 won league awards....the age thing is way overblown...especially in this day and age

B.C had no run game...or didnt even try to establish one....we are built different , and have a smart QB and receiving group who should be able to exploit that rush....guess we shall see....and I wont use last yr grey cup as a barometer as we played basically with ZC at less than 50% of what he is capable of...and still should have won....but agree that until the Argos lose, or get bounced by us...whichever comes first, they should be ranked #1....Kelly tho is getting a lot of film on him now, and expect his play to start to wane...

Not arguing for the sake or arguing, but...could be said one team played best it could that day...the other didn't...hence why they lost.....and yes Adams had a bad h=game...cause he basically does this often, but also...and not saying it this [particular game but a pic could be a receiver went to the wrong spot/ran wrong route....or didn't give that extra effort to make the play...etc..etc from my experience usually in a lopsided loss, unless there is an extreme gap in talent between 2 teams....the losing team usualy gets slapped around because most facets...if not all were filled with errors..miscues, and just not being in sync that day....and was "not" the best they could play that day...moreso dropping a giant turd....a lot of times tho it's they lost the coaching aspect of the game and got outcoached and schemed as well

yeah had 25....Had high teans in 21 for the Als....not as many last yr but think he missed some time...but huge add for depth for us...Not too sure what the other fella brings, but it's a Canadian body who can fil out on teams as well and be a back-up to our Canadian LB's...

Him...Miller and Hansen when back will be huge for the cover teams

bout time we did something to adress the roster inefficiency...Exume will be huge on teams....

thats what I was alluding to....no visible complaining and whining that was over the top...no after whistle nonsense..etc...there is a major difference if you sit and look

As was Lawrence...was a nagging injury after game 1 affecting him??...I still think we could see him and Rose as the corners come crunch time...tho Swarmay is intriguing and looking better each time out...and is a solid physical guy....also is top 3 in league with the lowest completion percentage against...so he could be this yrs defensive backfield gem....

and he was still good in coming up in run support...in my opinion he can't get back fast enough, and get some games in so he has his sea legs for the main part of the season

yeah it's not a matter of waiting and playing this fools game...but when 3/5's of one unit is on the IR...and several other g key guys are working back into the lineup....top notch players...well then you hope when they come back...nobody else gets dinged....thats football
