  1. yeah that 4 man front has been very successful....more please. And agree...Woods for Ayers and his no snaps a game woud have made more sense and kept our best dlineman all fresh Interesting that Osh figured Korn was best option out of the gate, and showed he was basically useless, so now a DT goes down Schmeck vaults him?? If he wasnt good enough to play before an underperforming guy....Maybe go a different route...like try Bailey in that roster spot to see what he brings....or add Woods in lieu of Ayers for dline depth?....other than that I lie what we have on roster this game based on what we have to choose from.... Woods who has played teams last yr and was not a weak spot either
  2. yup....I meant that if we tank 2 of the 3...or even all 3....start the in season purge
  3. https://static.cfl.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/WINNIPEG-AT-CALGARY_AUGUST-9.pdf There she be...Mitchell time to show if he can be a difference maker The 2 candian DT's are just brutal tho....Hopefully we dont see a lot of them when only 1 Canadian should need to b on the filed at any given snap
  4. I don't lay too much blame on the players for under performance when several are just not good enough...many who are hold overs and thats on the coaching, and it seems an inability to actually coach/teach guys to be their best. With success and failure on any given side of the football, 80 percent or more of it is the coaching and preparedness prior to the game and being put in position, and having the right guys out there to be successful....we have really sucked there more often than not Is it an inability to do so?...or just plain laziness?....or a combination? Also when you have sub par guys playing it effects the actual good guys....but also, some of our established guys who still can play need to up their game too, but with the country club atmosphere we have v=been subject too, and no fear of losing playtime, even the most professional of vets can become indifferent and lazy A lot of blame to go around but I sticking to my guns and for the most part I sticking to the notion that our coaching is what has hampered us....last week we did see a shift in rostering and actual use of guys....we got an outright release this week and curious again to see if more roster re-working occurs...now was that a "suggestion" from the guys above the HC?...Could be because it's a total departure on how Osh generally does things...and that's nothing but a good thing, and I have a hard time believing it was all Osh finally having a brainwave idea...based on his 11+ yrs of doing things. And if it took him 11 yrs to see some of the weak points in himself....just wow is all I gonna say We seen last 2 games that actual legit rotation on the dline has made WJ and Vaughters look like total different players....mind you it was just the Argo's beat up line but still....it has to be seen as progress...this game tomorrow if it continues will be a pretty good indicator....even the Griffin at AM and lots of J.Jones, and Parker before he got hurt made a world of difference, especially in the intermediate area 5-15 yards from L.O.S so looking to see it get even more refined, and an addition of WooDs to go with Adams should even further improve our front 7...especially with J.Jones getting even more reps If we can shore up the play of the oline, and actually have some legit weapons than if our coaching and OC can get in ZC head and have him play within himself and be more surgical, and not always look for the big plays I think we can be very successful, especially if we really rely on the run and extended run type plays with BO and actual play making ability guys.....Mot sure our OC has the compatance right now to do that, and switch gears mid game, but Jackson can and hopefully he gets a bit more say in things. The next 3 games are big and how we go about the remainder of the season I think hinges on these games,
  5. Don't need chemistry...get open...and separation in your designed route...QB make the throw...its not rocket science The "Chemistry" thing is a bit over stated at times...the knowing when or where to go on busted plays...and cut off your route for sure is feel thing...but if majority of your plays have to rely on that...u ain't winning much
  6. It will come back...hes very early off of surgery when you think bout it He runs better than ZC tho even with his not back to form
  7. Id take him immediately...gives us actual depth and guy can be a playmaker too...Corcoran I currently can't see ever being a real playmaker
  8. I can't see adams being replaced...my guess is Ayers if/when Woods gets on...better not be J.Jones And yeah...I hope Mitchell goes off
  9. Cant know until we give him a couple full games in a row....I think tho we'd see a big difference....who knows tho if we get that chance to see it that....The recent moves on defense were surprising and the out right release of London Bridges was to be honest...almost shocking...so never know
  10. scrap it all...run the veer with Strev hahahaha Also a good way to make a struggling Oline that much better....But we'd definately need to swap Kolo with Eli to run it
  11. Couple more lil tweeks and I can see us managing them quite well....and even our at times piss poor coaching may not kill us as I still think Mace is even more clueless...and that team is still super undisciplined We got a few games yet to get our house in order...so we shall see but based on record right now...they are best....over the course of yr tho and how it all shales out...I have my doubts.....specifically for 3 reasons...Harris factor....guys never won...Mace....and their undisciplined play and believing their own hype I do hope tho they claim 1st and we kill their hopes and dreams again at PA west....again haha
  12. hopefully this will make the coaches realize now that just because a guy was here last yr...2...3 yrs....that maybe they aren't the best choise...and we see actual true TC competition finally
  13. oh agree....both our QB's need tom do a better job of that...the last 2 seasons ZC has prob been worse....so is that coaching?...I would lean more to that as I don't think both our QB' have become that dumb...and I guess if we wanna spin it in a positive at least they trying to get a score hahahaah
  14. the right receiver likely could have made that...and who knows if he had the liberty there to call an audible....they may have said this is what we want.....hard to say....But Perfect high point throw there....or high backside toss...Sterns isnt the guy for that kind of play....so the playcall design right from get go was destined to fail regardless...I put that all on Hogan
  15. yeah...as what I trying to convey....was wrong side of endzone to throw that pass too....had to basically be a perfect pass, but even then the mismatch may have still sunk it
  16. oh agree...and comes down to position on field and player package...that should have been tossed to opposite side of field and to a mismatch in our advantage...I like a coach with plums....that tho should have been a call at the line that if a certain coverage was shown there was a second option....I dont think we had anything other than take that shot...but who knows....I think Hogan needs to take a backseat right now to Jackson even if they dont officially announce it
  17. Yeah should have been a call that could been changed at line when they saw who/what coverage...or had 2 options...that was a 1 option throw it there regardless of what was seen on field...and the QB gets to wear the horns...If that was Lawler...Schoen....heck even Wheatfall that catch may have been made, ZC has had a lot of success and TD's scored with throws way worse than that but got bailed out...Strev didnt get bailed out...It wasn't that bad a throw really and a bigger...more apt to win 50/50 battle balls likely makes that catch...our receiver on that play is not that kinda guy
  18. but also have to consider circumstance...down and distance...position...I agree....we have to be more ballsy (said it many times myself) but also do it at appropriate/opportune times....that really was neither....and going up 2 scores guaranteed with time left on clock...was the better move in that particular game....opening quarter?.....sure....Hogan is out of his league right now, and then vilifying a player on top of it...bad look...especially when Osh's Mantra is to not criticize a player even when warranted...tho he also never owns up to making a wrong call either...so this incident isnt really that shocking and may be indicative that things all around are not as tight as they were, or as some like to believe, and maybe some frustrations are bubbling out
  19. well the choosen receiver too for that call may have also been an issue...still though with leagues best RB would it not been better to take 2 runs at it and depending how close u were on 3rd down gamble?.....or just kick the 3 and nake it a 2 score game?.... All throughout a game a defence will present looks that can be exploited...that being said they also are playing the game too and can make a play...and the DB there made a solid play....and had a size mismatch to boot...
  20. See Osh...we can do that kind of change...its okay to admit you made a mistake...lol Now clean up the rest of your lingering mess
  21. yeah he was only QB in west to play all games as well yup
  22. 3 yr starter...was by no means good or had the ability to drg teams to wins...poor attitude too and an excuse machine who continually whined
  23. Much like when some real solid receivers and dlineman that were out there we failed to land let alone even target any and with this current regime still in place next yr...I have no faith in us signing anyone of signifigance....especially as we already re-upped ZC.....And Osh thinks we are good....so that be the end of that...Even in one the last articles he said we are "thriving" with ZC...guy clearly has zero clue We gonna have I bet the exact same crew back competing at QB with likely the only other new face being the kid we drafted....so we better hope our staff can actually coach heck look at the Faj...for most part looked like garbage...career backup....got o a team who actually worked with him...gave hin a sysyem he could thrive in...with a good group of players around him....Beat us in the Grey Cup. Coaching ails us more than most realize
  24. any QB if he has arm ability...athleticism...and more than 13 brain as well as the ability to learn and be coached can have success. If the time and patience's put in, and you can afford to do that, and also game plans to accentuate their skills....you are gonna develop a guy...we did that with Brown to a certain extent only to let him walk away. Would he have had success here?...Likely last yr/yr before but this yr under the OC...The craptacular receiving group an the piss poor in game coaching/strategy I can't see any guy having sustained success here right now Strev...we didnt develop him whatsoever...if anything we stagnated him and almost regressed him...Now he is forced into an almost lose lose situation coming off only 10 months from a total reconstruction....for sure he not gonna look the same, and yeah for a QB coming off that it definitely gonna affect his pocket movement....platform...base from how he throws...everything....but for now....it is what it is If you look at his tape in the NFL and from all accounts was more than capable and could make all the throws...and showed it Our best course with him is let him get as much work as he can this yr...actually work with developing him and not kill him with stupid previous kind of work load we gave him, and yeah bring him back next yr when he is over a yr removed from surgery and has another yr and full TC under his belt...with real weapons and see how he looks...Thats when you make the decisions...Cause as it stands now the only real vet QB's we gonna have available to us barring any miraculous trade...which aint gonna happen are him and ZC....Let them go to war in camp...legitimately and see who gives us the best chance then...and looking forward....The real onus is on the team to actually coach and develop guys and put the work in...and for last 3 to 5 yrs...we havnt....with any player really...hence why we have zero real depth
