But he is NOT the immovable object nose tackle we really need.
No...but we sorely missing a rotational end ..heck any dlineman to offset loss of Hansen and Kongbo...that rotation of ends is really hampering us..especially when we had lots of sets with de's in the middle...and we were very good against run...we need a few pieces and an experienced one in CFL game..and in CFL game shape would be huge

agree....and I sure he would love to join us for those back to backs...and chance to be 1 game away from Grey Cup...Dude is good and certainly his intimate knowledge of BC's schemes and lingo wouldn't hurt...if anything would make them have to change things up against us, which would likely cause some miscues
21 minutes ago, Fatty Liver said:According to 3DN, he was recently taken off the active roster due to a ratio change with Canadian rookie Nathan Cherry taking over the starting job. Also Woody Baron coming off the 6 game for the first time this season.
Yeah seen that...basically a ratio thing...He would be a nice rotation with the Jeff's....and has middle of Line experience too, so be a nice piece when we run all DE types for Cheetah

Is Brandon Zylstra still available? Might be a good idea to try and bring in another receiver. Anyone hear any time frame we can expect some of our receivers back? Are any of them done for the year?
he is...but doubt we look receiver, as I fully expect Ellingson back after the bye and in time to wax the Riders ad their circus.
I can see them making a hard push on Drew now to finish out the yr with provisos of a release immediately after season, but have a 2023 contract in the drawer if nothing pans out for him.
Now regarding Houston's status, if the coaches figure him back before season close then I dont see us going after another possible pricey DB...we now have some big upside DB's here now, as well as a receiver (Heiligh) and also who knows ..maybe Agudosi may be available...the fact he is still here, and walking around albeit with a boot still at last sighting tells me he could be back
Same with Wilson...the fact he roaming around with no issues, hasnt been in a boot or cast of any type in quite some time leaves me optimistic there as well.
Mentioned it before, but bringing in Vaughters who is available would be a huge score...heavy rotation of him and the Jeffs would be crazy good, and would be that extra lil someting we need, especially if we in lieu of DB's now bring in a real gap cancelling DT/Nose....

Whitehead MUST have said something really bad....like, this kinda thing doesn't just happen for some basic insult.
Judge needs to grow thicker skin....lotsa stuff thats pretty messed up gets said....Judge also is a bit of an odd one, and had some "issues" even back on the Riders....thats just cheap and low....and should be rest of season suspension in my opinion

yup...like i said...grow a pair Judge and suck it up...he's a known yapper anyway....if u can dish it, u gotta be able to take it to
44 minutes ago, Noeller said:but here's the point.... I don't think Judge sucker punched Lucky for a yo mama joke. Whatever Lucky said had to have been BAD to incur that kind of retribution. I'd be really curious to know what could be THAT bad...
Judge isnt all there upstairs.....he is a P.O.S plain and simple....some of that Rider stench still must be on him....and maybe Judgre said stuff first, and Lucky got last word in...or thought he did until the gutless actions

thats the good with the bad you have to deal with when you have a guy like him who works hard to make things happen, and always looking to go downfield with ball....I'll take the odd gaff with all the positive plays that come from it....would you rather have a Faj who cork screws himself into the ground...or a Harris or Nichols who turtle and wilt in the pocket...killing drives?...I wouldn't

well....on the flip a smart coaching staff here will have seen the weakness....and will address it, so if next game a team tries the same scheme, and we switched ours to counter it...well then it becomes a positive for us....pretty sure we have that smart, and adaptive staff...we won't be caught off-guard again

Honestly the offense and special teams were good enough, the only issue was the defense. I believe that's an easier fix than if the offense was struggling.
yup....and when u look at it...our dlineman basically played the whole second half....nobody to rotate in really....just 1 extra guy, and we had to play Sayles out of position....compound that and 2 rookies in secondary, and basically just a place filler at WIL...and not a difference maker...well thats what you get...if anything we won't get caught outmanned on dline again going forward...or by next game they will be comfortable rotating in the 2 new guys they brought on 2 weeks ago...those di's cant be soley teamers, or thats utter waste of roster management and just plain piss poor roster management in general

Hamilton out schemed us 100% and thats why they won...we made a nice comeback, but by then the defense was gassed due to poor roster management and we fell short....plain and simple...and nothing to freak about...the next couple byes, and being mainly at home will also help the nagging injury guys...as there are several on defense...and it's affecting thingsit's not that certain guys have lost it and are quickly regressing...it's injuries....huge player turn over and playing 3 raw rookies right now, and a Wil linebacker position that is weak and hurting us in the overall scheme

U can expect 2 duds on any given yr...we have now hit our quota
And yes in 2019 we had questions and juggling and in last 4...5 games made roster moves to solidify...I see that again with possible additions and or injury returns.
Of not Woli too also finished off the 2019 season needing to wear a brace on his knee....u see...things are aligning just as we want...and 3 home games...2 byes to close out yr...we are just where we wanna be

Injuries and depleted depth bit us....that and a good game plan by Hamilton... chalk that up to part of any season....and at 12 and 2 we are in full control especially of our destiny.
Better use of the roster tho is needed...and pretty sure that Osh and company realized that last game when we had basically all our dlineman play the whole second half..and one guy (Sayles) having to play out of position.
We definitely tho have dropped the ball on getting an legit pile pushing middle plugging D-takle on the roster tho..would help out tonnes with our depleted Wil lb spot and an obvious not 100 percent Biggie.
If we choose to dress 7 olineman again and refuse to use one...and not bring in a DT line plugged then use Dobson ala Eric wilson on the nose and DT spot to collapse the pocket...he's big enough and very athletic...I'm sure he would garner a couple Olineman attention...freeing up others

I think Stove is likely out all yr...almost certain he was an achilles too
