Booch

i'm cool and confident with that!! lol

mere blips in what is the grand scheme of a season...other teams too have had gaffs...that being said, no other team has shown the sheer domination during games .for extended periods like Winnipeg has, and some of those early games where we were basically over at halftime, and we coasted breeded a bit of complacency...with players and coaches...figuring we just had to show up for the last bit of a game and play safe and we would win...Toronto game showed different...Sask labour day one was basically 2 minutes of a combination of things so I'm not grouping that into the T.O and MTL collapses. This team learned a lesson in T,O...had it hammered home in MTL...from a mindset of a former player, that WON'T happen again. Sometimes you need a few slaps upside the head to get a point across to someone....these were our slaps....And I am gonna go on record now saying we close out going 4-1...and sit and wait for whover comes outta the slugfest of the WSF

yeah I was at the stadium for other reason..totally forgot about fan appreciation but was a very good turn out and seemed all around positive vibe...Bought a Lucky 7 shirt tho while there and was lucky..no pun intended that was the last one in my size

I think tho instead of calling audibles he was going right rogue and doing just whatever he wanted..

I have faith...but also have been in a locker room and know how players think..feel..react...and I wouldn't be shocked with Streveler utilizing his option to call an audible if he doesn't like what he see's and take the bull by the horns....and no thats not going rogue by any stretch...

correct me if I'm wrong but we are still in first...win next week which is a given because this team is pissed beyond belief right now and we are still in first, Montreal coming here will receive the same game Sask got from a pissed team that knew they shouldn't have lost and that has us at 11 wins...I truly don't see Sask beating us in 2 weeks...even in their crapper bowl of a stadium, and if we split with CGY...we stayed in first...wire to wire...thats how I see it panning out...so correct me if I'm wrong then...lol

on a bright side to this game though....until they Neutered Streveler in the second half, I think made a huuuge stride and has settled right in...more experience and reps with his unique skill-set..look out. That INT as well was a perfect play by the DB...He gambled and read the play right and won....left his man and jumped the route...Happens to the best of the best. You learn from that and next time you bait that guy and go over top and hit the guy that was left free....I'm sure that is in the memory bank and I guarantee you next time we will show/run that play early in a game and the second time we run it will bait that DB and burn them. That was in no way a poor throw, or bad read...The DB just made a great play...something they are paid to do too....it just so happened that it made LAPO turtle like usual and we became ultra conservative and predictable...does same thing with Nichols

oh I agree Hall ran some dumb schemes...no doubting that, that being said we should have never let up on offence and kept doing what we were doing and the Montreal offence would hardly have been on the field and would have been having to come back from way more than 20. Gaitor tho had a bad game..was getting owned bigtime and Hall not seeing that and like you mentioned changing his blitz, or even abandoning it would have helped for sure, that or changing coverages and having the DB's jam at the L.O.S would have helped too

the smart decision is to yes...run the ball to kill out the clock...but maybe run something with some variation...or use someone else to cross up the defense, run a play the defense hasn't seen yet, it's pretty easy concept but we seem to never get it right. Christ you have a horse in Streveler they should have ran back to back QB sweeps to the wide side...slide protection and all receivers out front blocking or pulling defenders away...long developing runs that would take off time on the clock if anything. Streveler in space...coming around the end in full gallop...blockers out front...do you not think he wouldn't have gotten at least 1 first down doing that??..obviously Lapo in his wisdom didn't because he ran two pansy plays which netted lost yards I believe and took what...12 seconds off the clock

Well when one team adjusts (Mtl) and the other does the same things with no adjustments/counter or use of what worked to set other things up (Wpg) then totally abandons it all together for whatever reason with what looked like no real game plan whatsoever and play to sit on a lead and not commit any errors...well you see the result...again This is modus oparandi with Lapo...always has been. Even a team spying Streveler would have been easily exploited and we just don't seem to make the in-game adjustment to counter anything. They should have a scenario already in place that if thats what they are doing, or spying Harris and it is easily flushed out by putting Harris in motion, or moving him outside the box...then you use your guy (WHITEHEAD) who would exploit teams in that scenario where he slides in and runs constant quicj=k bang routes or slants with him in that open space..but nope...we do nothing of the sort This team..especially on offence always shuts it down when they have a nice lead and then when they need to turn it back on...they cant...and thats how football works with momentum..if we had an O.C with a set of onions on him at worst we would be 12-1 right now...I hang 3 of those 4 losses squarely on him...not on Hall or the defense...

should be a nice intense game...can't wait...I bet Harris goes over 100 yards as well....

Yeah talking crap in media...and spewwing garbage usually doesn't end well...Bowman saying he wonders if all his work and awards should be questioned cause he may have been juicing is funny as he must have missed the othe 8 or so clean tests provided over his career...random tests where you don't kow they are being administerd...the doofus And circumventing the SMS is not cheating MR Bowman??...any player on that team would have known it wasn't within rules but that doesn't seem to bother him...perhaps all involved in that should be handed multi game suspensions? Truly hope Harris trucks him over and over...or a lineman or two takes a few liberties

interesting too that the players were commenting on the blatant holding going on...it's not just "fans" looking for excuses

Yeah we may dress all the O-lineman....and could also see us scratching the Import Jones and just going with National Jones, Exume and Hallett as DB back-ups...which we have done often this year so we can rotate the 3 of Whitehead, Bailey and Lawler. I think Whitehead has been hampered the last few games with some kind of leg injury, so I expect to see him be fairly prominent in the offence tomorrow, along with Bailey

But u need to factor in playoff cash too..u dont get there...u don't get none If we go to grey cup a guy like Chung would have made more here than the big salary he took to play for a crap team..and have his reputation take a severe hit too as to how good a player he seems not to be this yr

a guy leaving for another has no real intel to give...all the teams., especially at this point in the season know your schemes, plays, tendancies..so it's nothing new to them The only thing they could expose is the verbage you call out for audibles..play calls, at the line, but generally teams change them each game anyway for the most part...the only real thing they have to offer is injury details..who may be knicked...what the injuries were for a guy coming back...

he's had one I'd consider a bad drop...another was not so much

all our receivers this year are a victim of circumstance...it will be a tough task for any to surpass 600 yards this year...but if we keep winning I'm fine with that. Woli has played just fine...had a couple bad drops...but over his 2 years here has made all his grabs...he also this year has done a great job with blocking, freeing up others..

makes sense being Canada's toilet bowl...as that province is basically a giant septic field anyway...havn't progressed to plumbing and sewer systems

Hopefully we will/can rotate a steady dose of Demski/Woli/Peterman in varoius sets..keep them all fresh and also keep the defenses guessing and not sure what is being ran consistently I would like to see us as well use a DI spot on Bailey, and roll with all-national DB depth/back-ups and enable us to rotate Bailey in with Whitehead and Lawler, we have played a good 5 games with no Import DB as a DI and with Jones, Wright, Exume and Hallett all on roster anyway I am sure we would be fine...especially once Jeffcoat gets back and our d-line pressure gets even better...I think more offensive weapons/options for Streveler benefit us more than an import DB as a DI who may not get many snaps anyway as Jones comes in a lot as the extra guy as it is anyway

Just think..with this weeks lead up to the game Harris has had essentially 4 weeks off to recharge and rest. He's gonna come out flying and prob stronger than ever..sadly if he comes out flat...or isnt his usual self people gonna say its cause he is off the roids

Yes we can lol

Bout time..that be huge addition

And his salary is probably less than a decent punter and good fg kicker combined..so he brings other benefits to the table...

typical for him...he tried that on Reilly's ankle too...p.o.s
