If our coach wasn't a brain dead stubborn ol fool...,,,we likely win 4 of the 5 trips at minimum...ZC or no ZC....Sadly yeah If BLM could have wanted til after labour day to have his career ender, and they were battling for first, and ZC was even just serviceable, I bet we coulda dealt himto the Hammer for a nice cache And if Smuggsy was opposed and pouting about it...Walter's could toss him in as part of the package too...we'd be better off all around moving forward...Toss in Korn too as a pot sweetener seeing as Osh thinks he's pro calibre Yeah by mid season he be very economical to close out a yr...plus its an expiring deal this yr too is it not?...so if he wants to keep playing it will be on the teams who want him terms....he wont be commanding anything near 600k again then be his Boss and just take away his safety blanket..and if he squawks too much...send him packing too...We wont wither and die....prob rise up and see some guys finally get to emerge if we being honest ZC has played better than last yr...thats not saying much tho but a plus...But he has also showed a lot of his regression too...and thats not going away, plus he isnt what he was to drag a team to the finish line game in and game out either, and with the **** WR crew we do have they aren't gonna consistently be amazing every game to assist in making him seem vintage...plus as we seen...he one good shot from being taken out and seeing as he not the future here next yr regardless of what N'Oshea says/thinks, of some team offers us a a good deal...we should jump at it...Roll with Brown as he will give us at minimum what ZC will...likely way more, and all along the way have some packages for TE to groom him and get him some confidence during this season and if next yr as the backup shows more considerable development...then there's your 2028 starter Maybe he really gets it this yr and wins the 2027 QB job..even better and then you have a more than capable Brown on the bench worked well in winning a cup

and was an outstanding play by pokey...basically taking the ball from behind line of scrimmage and doing it all with his athleticism...not some great play drawn up and we threaded the needle for a intermediate or better toss. Maybe it was an eye opener to see that we have and how we can actually use some or weapons in an effective way Stoll great we got the TD but we all cant get ahead of ourselves and say it was from stella QBing in that moment or scheme...we have potential all over...just need to realize it, and with that it means also deleting some sub standard guys with upsideguys...be it raw rookie or a guy who's been here but under used That also played a hand in it...sure its a 3 phase game and you win all phases you "should" win, but you cant expect to win em all, all the time and you also need sound coaching and prep, as well as a playmaker or 2 on both sides of the ball. Poor planning/coaching/roster can facilitate a loss also even when all 3 phases are won in a game.. we'd be pretty ignorant of everything tho to think we would have won that if BLM didnt go down....and that even with ZC staying upright I bet tho even with Dru being here a limited time had he been on roster and BLM didnt get hurt he could have made a game out of it...of not pulled it out, just from the effect of his return and the adrenalin of it all buoying all aspects of the team to ratchet it up a few notches...

We need to find..trade..create in a lab a game breaker reciever A actual DT and another end to compliment Reese who is a keeper...Dixon likely is thar versatile guy to do that. And we need a physical strike fear in the middle DB to stop the free reign we give up the middle We need to use our lb group properly with the right guys..Woodbey back will help..Smith and Ayers need more reps and we need to see what Shay can do..or move on Stop the senseless over rotation and when we do bring in the quasi safety guy it needs to not be Kelly And lastly 3 National oline guys and actually use that import spot on a spot that will.move the needle and also use the nationalized American rule to full effect. We do that and we can be top 1-3 in league....easily Cat in the coalmine tho is we have Osh as a coach.. Will he do it..or recognize it? If he has to overstep his assistants to do so..he best be doing it...but basically here its Osh hamstringing his coordinators Cause if anyone just for example thinks Condell would prefer Corcoran and Cobb over any import and a receiver with real ability and threat in them...they are as clueless as Osh

Yeah..and that wasn't the plan with ZC but when he went out it became the plan. Do they have zero faith in TE throwing anything intermediate and beyond...is it because we have a handicapped receiving group that doesn't facilitate a rookie being able to throw those balls with a lack of experience and touch to lead recievers and find open holes and have athleticism to compensate for less than perfect..or a second or 2 too slow reads..big time.. If we i bet even gave the ball to Perkins instead and let him run that same "scheme" the results at worst would likely have been exact same in the win..and id bet we win actually in a bigger way...Brown...we prob have won handily BO should be allowed and leaned on to rumble regardless..every game until a team shows they can stop it..or mix their scheme to eliminate him..then u eviserate them thru the air with an already pre-game prepped counter punch seamlessly and immediate. Not fumble and bumble along for 2..3 quarters to finally start to figure it out...defensively too...out coaching doesn't seem to grasp that coaching concept...they go into the game with what they got and just roll with it regardless...much like the roster when camp breaks.... I agree...they actually made some smart decesion there, but most of that was due to BO being p'eod and playing mad...you could see it in his on field demeanor. How often tho do we see smart coaching in game tho? Not a lot..But a lot of beating your head against the wall hoping the failed planning/parts of roster works..until more times than not its too late..this happens far too often Glad we won...but nobody should feel warm and fuzzy over it...we eeeked out a win despite the coaching blunders/decisions...and that as well is far too common last 3..4 yrs

Yeah thats just an old myth..dbs are guys with fluid greasy hips..fast feet and ability to move change and dorection seamlessly.. or should be Best of the 7 true canadians i should have said..we havnt done that either...

I want the 3 best possible qbs..nationality not being a reason for play...that goes for every position..currently.. we dont have that...or shall I rephrase..we dont play best options..we do have talent but its either not used..under used...or not recognized Holm has had bricks for hands his whole career..not a shock he dropped that

I wouldn't move griffin..dude is legit there..prob a top sam in league Kramdi would be a worse WIL than safety..we really shouldn't even have re-upped him..definitely not for what we payed him...he should have been another guy we moved on from. If he wasn't here..he wouldn't be missed..I dont care how smart he is..Doesn’t translate to actual ability...I know a lot of smart football guys who would suck too Yup..one of his more stupid moves...and he has made many A 5 yr guy could have absorbed more than the basic package and done more than what we witnessed I've said before...osh is a horrible actual coach or game roster constructor...plus he is never accountable for any failure but is quick with an excuse tho U didnt need to go 4 import oline guys...we didnt last week when neuf was out...osh just makes excuses and has his own agenda at times before the betterment of team..and its not just this isolated incident..its yrs and yrs worth of it..smug and arrogant...and a whiner if criticized or called out on anything... We really have minimal reciever talent..and no guys outside the mold of the 3 main guys we have...one of whom..Demski is a walking injury and not what he was..he isnt a top 5 canadian..let alone wr in general...the 3 canadian wr plan..needless as it is doesn't allow our top 2 guys much room...and what has neild done last 2..3 games..he would have been a nice 4th..5th option flying under the radar

Nor can Osh really...If Brown was dressed we win in a walk....got away lucky but I will take it BLM doesn't get hurt...we woulda got waxed Glad we won and all but we just added another layer of lipstick to a pig...Osh will see this as progress and his poor foresight and rostering was just right If ZC cant go next week and he starts TE he should be shipped right outta the province....TE is clearly a long wat from being close to being ready. and he should be buying BO drinks and steaks for rest of the yr...we don't have him even without BLM playing we woulda lost I liked what Mazz did...played great and should continue there, but no way should we continue with 4 imports...Eli is more than capable at center and flanked by Neuf and Mazz I like the physicality and aggression We need that import at receiver or on defence...Did Korn even get reps in 2nd half?...I didnt notice him....good or bad so assume not...or very few nope not that i heard..maybe "not ready" excuse? which is a load of crap as a vet...experience with a lot of our guys...coaches....what he is seeing....he woulda been just fine....he doesnt need weeks of prep...just another in long list of stupidity from the guy wearing the head set

Man we a bad team...horribly coached Pick..run for loss..sack...really prepared Kramdi exposed in space early...again We send a de out wide as a db in press coverage..like wtf Korny first snap..pushed 7 yards off line of scrimmage..second he gets just stood up in place...sure he got a knockdown..kudos for getting his hand up but ol guy basically had him locked up in a standstill...so rewarded with more snaps next series and first play roundtree runs thru him The wasted trade to move up for asskicker blocker misses the easiest of block assignments and gets qb creamed ..and leads right into pre game worries of whythefuxk Dru wasn't dressed...total coaching blunder..again...our wr's scare nobody and are horrid.. worst in league 2 yr running...we are a basement team no question about it under this crew..inexcusable really

Plus...Singer showed well as a returner...great depth if vaval gets hurt..or had to play on defence and needed a breather...but that makes too much sense...no?

Now thats a well constructed roster But they try hard in practice and are swell guys...so there's that lol

outstanding at 1-1 and really if cgy had full compliment of defensive players...we lose that game...we barely won it as it is...we tied for last in league for points scored...of thats outstanding I wonder what bad looks like new DE....He shopuld have been the backup to Dixon outta camp...of not actually flip flopped...Jenkins was defacto starter based soley on being here last yr...was no question at all going into camp...thats how Osh operates and part of our issues....Jenkins was outplayed by numerous ends in camp....but like yrs past....got the ol gift no questions asked Yup...nailed it...4 straight yrs of worse record...followed by worst place in standings....followed by early exit in playoffs...pretty much because of the same nonsense we seeing this yr...nothings changed with Osh...how that earned a 3 yr extension is beyond me...he ised up all his goo will/mulligan from 2023-2025 Should have offered him a 1 yr extension and prove his mettle and if he didnt like it and balked...see ya later...Pretty sure we would have many a qualified HC candidate knocking on our door. Walters did his job....after that....flop city again...I truly dont think Osh can evaluate true talent, or intangibles that will make a player successful if his life depended on it over 13 points...aka...2 td's basically....Outstanding indeed haha x2

also they raved about Vpool....and apparently we need an olineman (which I highly doubt in all honesty)...and really we coulda just dressed same group as last week and Vibert be 6th...Eli at center and Ellsbury at guard....but he gets bypassed for Mazzcua which to me is an upgrade to Vpool as I said in camp he was a beast and be shocked if he wasnt kept...so why have hom still around if a rookie overtakes him...we have that Poncious kicking around....thats 2 backup imports that wont see the field...so maybe replace one with an actual guy who could be impactful on defense...or a legit actual receiver....but no...break camp and stick with the known...some of which are past their prime and carry a whack of guys that wont see the field...some of which when an opportunity arises....gets bypassed by a rookie....just garbage management If they wanna see what Mazzcua can do...Swap him out with Elsbury...we have seen 3 games of him to see he is decent but not worth bastardizing your roster of a import elsewhere that could actually move the needle...give him a few games and then pick the better of the 2 But no we go 4 import oline needlessly and have to remove an American on defence to add a useless Korn...who we have seen for 3 yrs now be ineffetive and cut multiple times...where no one else picked him up....there is a reason for that...Sure Jenkins wasn't lighting it up...but he would offer more than Korn will...and he has shown some flashes....Korn has showed jackshit...and thats his ceiling...not floor christ they dont get benched even for a series or 2....we just send up out to be continually owned...Osh is just a bad game day/roster manager...he's good when he has a stacked lineup...but when he has to actually put the best one out there on evaluating/recognizing talent and usefulness, constructing a sound roster to mitigate any injury issues that could pop up in game...and have "actual" depth across the board that can actually be used...he sucks...worst in the league if we being honest

Tis along season...anything can sill happen...that being said...and especially on defence we have regressed and actually gotten thinner depth wise and have less talent startring...from an already borderline level of talent that wasn't really top notch 4 games into season thats not a good sign, and also have shown no improvement on our scheme...how we deploy it and then how we execute...teams can read us like a book and when we do the unnecessary subbing, teams go tight after the are\s we rotated the true starter out of....and we show no intelligence to actually change things...or rethink it...just more of the same...again not good We look at the film and say we see the errors and fixed it...or it was an execution issue....but each week more of the same, or a a new issue teams exploit...when is the execution issue...and guys made a mistake excuse gonna be viewed as maybe its a matter of guys are not good enough....and or coaching is lacking? Cause really its getting old...and like they say excuses are for losers...and the alst 3 yrs been a lot of the same excuses...and more and each year a worsening record as well but we seeing it going the opposite way...and injury excuse is like i said in other post....for losers....our crappy depth...poor PR usage and keeping guys who wont make a difference is part of issue and factors into things heavily

People believe too much assistants have say in roster...they have input and thats it...and have to make do with some the garbage osh feels is deserving What up with Wallace? He hurt? If not let's waste an import there and still have shiitt for reciever and be an injury away from again being handcuffed...or better yet let's remove an import off defense on the dline and add a canadian DT and delete an end...a dt who is arguably the worst in league and not make any other roster If Vibert isnt an option then wtf he doing here still? Why not again shift elsbury to guard and eli at center..Eli did absolutely nothing to not get a second spot..he was more than fine and would look better with Neuf on his right as well Trade for Dru...and dont roster him...afain..wtf...Elgersma right now isnt ready and Perkins is great at short yardage so why change what ain't broke.. you land a legit starter to be your number 2..and dont roster him..brilliant Db backfield who been getting gouged and abused...so let's keep em all together again...good move Other teams will make changes and even publicly say they need to be better...Osh just how hum twiddly dee we good...guys a friggin moron and man I wish we didnt resign him I'm a fan and never wanna lose but I hope we get our asses handed to us just to hear his response to it, and then witness next games roster. Same ol same ol as I feared...ten bucks we dont make playoffs this yr

All the limited guys shouldn't see roster anyway..so this is a good thing

Still played fast and free tho...tackles are gonna be missed as a good functioning offense is gonna be playing like that too..so you would think they gonna make plays just like the defenses did...thats football And there was a lot of pressure..and a lot with just 4 guys..and also was guys in same role..same positions for most part..also both teams..actually all teams for most part this yr if you watch their defenses run with their starting 3 LBs basically for entirety of game save for a few looks..give a guy a rest/injury etc..not the nonesense we see

yup...that too....how are guys supposed to be in any synergy and basically just react and know player X is doing what he supposed to beside hi,...and Player Y is supporting...etc....when you have to know the traits of 2...3 different guys ...never gonna work And from an ex. defensive player talking from experience you need to be out there play after play...and with same guys to get into any flow and a groove...and be able to recognize and take advantage of who's across from you in a game and hat they are doing....or not doing and exploit it...if u are getting random snaps..here and there at your position...then multiple snaps in someone else's....well good luck with that...Or scheme and philosophy just puts guys in a disadvantage right outta the gate...and a good reason why a lot of times...more often than not we seem unprepared and confused and take a half of football to figure it out, only to have the opponent adjust to our "adjust" and guys finally being in a flow and putting the dagger in us when it matters...we see that alot Just watching last night alone...other teams playing fast and free...intense...aggressive and hitting hard....but we almost seem like we playing in mud...tentative...minimal intensity ....there's a reason for that

to get a starting QB and one who likely has you set up already for 2027 with zero panic come season end...thats pretty par for course...actually a pretty good deal as we didnt have to give up a current asset and we improved our second rounder.

key game this week...will tell us a lot of what we are and where we headed....almost the 1/4 season point so should be a pretty solid indicator if you have your **** together and what kind of roster you have,,,or dont....if you dont start re-evaluating and tweaking/changing guys up...she spirals pretty fast

wasnt even gonna give a response...but....Pot calling kettle black...You just post the same ol same ol trope daily...based on your lack of any real football knowledge...and like clockwork every post you post about me Noeller either Thumbs up...or likes it...kinda funny...at same time sad...You 2 the same person?...or just lovers? You think??...funny eh...all he offers is "this guy is cooked"..."that guy is cooked"...and some weird rambles that sometimes nave no bearing on anything and make zero sense It's a discussion board...with opinion...likes...dislikes...etc...if it rankles some people so much maybe they need a hug from mama and should avoid the internet...yeah? Or bloke...mute...or dont engage...some should try that...pretty neat concept in the great words of the wise Goalie...He's cooked...haha... without all the injuries I had a sneaking sense Korny would re-appear regardless...just cause thats what we do And our piss poor PR construction and how we allocate assets or what we consider assets will bite us..already has Like we insist we need to go 3 Canadian receivers...even with no depth and lack of talent to do so especially with Clercius out...so lets carry 3 import guys and zero Canadians...make that make sense, especially when we all know that Demski is constantly getting hurt, or playing banged up

nah...I just dont like fools...and not afraid to say it lol

Obviously Osh doesn't have a high "EQ" lol, it's IQ doofus...explains a lot haha or was that just a Tait oopsie in his writing? I don't watch Osh interviews as they are pointless...says absolutely nothing important...and frankly is a waste of time....and ever notice any question he is asked...regardless what it is...or what the context..He always starts with "yeah"....many times ...actually most "yeah" makes zero sense or point...must be a tick

Nothing you can do to get tendons to grow and stay in same ratio as normal athletic muscle tone....bigger you get the more strain they will have to take on...Musculature in a joint area such as shoulder....and thigh area for the knee can help in making them more stable but the tendons are just staying as is...and that extra muscle can inflict a lot more torque...When I fully dislocated my shoulder they actually had to pump me up with valium and then sedate me as the muscles around the joint were compensating to protect it and 4 people couldn't get it back in place... So its kind of a damned if you do...damned if you don't scenario for adding good lean bulk...you can somewhat protect a joint and have it more stable...but the tendons/ligaments themselves aren't stronger and a lot of times unbeknown to the athlete and therapists over time it can be slowly coming apart from all the stress they are under..and just go...like you see on so many non contact injuries...I have worked with strength and conditioning coaches' who are trying to figure out ways to pre-determine if a joint is failing and kinda do best they can for preventative maintenance but it's not a exact science by any means...shi8t just happens sadly M Hammies are weird as they are part muscle...and tendon...For one of my reconstructions a hammy graft was used to replace a ACL...As oppose to the earlier ways of getting the patellar graf which can cause issues in and of itself....Highly not recommended now for athletes still in prime, or kids in Highschool/college...if at all now...I think thats been stored away in the archaic files...but dont quote me
