  1. Ayers at de..strev at wr...Thomas and kolo starting...guys dressed who didnt play...OC dumb as rocks...HC with smug head up ass...we're funny
  2. Considering we have not a legit reciever at all marinating anywhere..can just imagine next week's lineup if demski and sterns are a no go
  3. He had good measurables tho...Cocoran doesn't even have that as an argument to why he is the main backup...now playing Demskis spot...sad state of affairs indeed
  4. Kramdi on Rambo...that's funny
  5. Osh loves him...tries hard. .so will never be off roster..
  6. I not sure why he even rostered right outta the gate. Guess just shows how pathetic our wr recruiting and scouting was
  7. That's called being gritty...
  8. Man...worst coached team in league....good thing we dressed 1 wr backup...said that would bite us Way too much duo Canadian dt..that's when we get gouged the most Poor decisions during game...clock management We no way shape or form championship caliber team...way too passive on our defense pass coverage...again Positive tho prob ZC best game in loooong time...oline seems more in sync save for the pylon in the middle
  9. Fact we didnt need 3 on roster is part of it...I agree with the total argument...that as an "organization" we have dropped the ball repeatedly left tight and center on various issues and with various people in charge Samson as well was never given any rope...he could have been brought back after Ham let him go but believe he in Cgy now I just didnt mean at DT either...or that specific roster spot..that roster positionh could have been for any Canadian...we are woefully lean across the board This yr even..Bailey can come on as last roster spot for a Canadian...lotsa upside there and tho technically a Global isnt the average Global player...he should be on before about 3..4 guys I can think of off top my head In the end the HC sets the roiter and keeps/cuts who "he" feels is best...regardless of what any GM brings in...if he keeps sub par favorites over any new guy brought in...we will never know....even if they get no other shot elsewhere....that really means nothing when in all reality save for a real crappy player....and a real exceptional one...most guys across the board in the cfl are very comparable and on the same level...it's how they are coached, schemed and played along with guys beside them Osh has had success...sure ...but he gets wayyyy too much credit for the whole thing....and it's just not the case....he's not the whole/main reason....so on that basis when things go wrong...and have been trending in wrong way 4 yrs now...then he should get all the blame too then...right...cause he gets glorified as the dear leader if not for Oshea...yeah buts and all the sucess too many is sole result of him Football is a collective thing with success and failure....but also it's always the HC neck on the line first when sucess starts to falter...and should be here. That's all I'm saying....we will be fine without Osh if he was to be gone next yr...probably better for it than if we retained him. He's gotten stale....and his message isnt what it was...happens to all coaches....12 yrs is a long time...can be said too long too...If we were dominating and won 5 cups in a row and consensus favorite to do it again...then this a non issue...but we ain't...and the trajectory based on what we seen last 3..4 yrs and the reason(s) why say change is needed Today is a good litmus test....we should by all means walk away with this game....if we dont, and squeek out another fluke or b.s win...there's issues....we lose and look like we have in other pathetic losses this yr....it's time....
  10. I'd say worst in league at it
  11. Old JT...The QB killer
  12. Cadwallader hasnt...Gauthier haven't seen out this yr other than short yardage stuff...but may have missed some snaps....he has a few defensive tackles so not sure just credited for short yardage stuff or if he was in....he doesnt really fit the skill set tho we use on that heavy rotation tho....
  13. from what I hear its knee...MCL strain....wont require surgery and can play with that ...likely see him in brace when he back on field
  14. Our Canadian LB's...Save for the holdovers Gautier and Cadwallader have all the metrics you want, and should be getting reps to slowly season them into the defence..Like other's said they don't need to be starting, but situational reps, rotation, games where outcome is pretty much a forgone conclusion is a definite must have, thats how you get guys either accustomed and ready...or determine that they not good enough. Nothing can replicate game reps on a multitude of levels, and you can only develop so much in practice, and there a limit to what you absorb from watching...you need to start to apply it, be it baby steps, or thrown right in...we fail to do that, and then when we do run into injury issues, we basically are forced to play injured people cause we have zero faith in the backup....they have zero experience (cause they never took any reps) We have seen this play out here every yr since 2021 Osh has his favorites, and his own personal reason's for it and just cause he is a HC doesn't mean it's the best, or right option. This is also how good teams over a real long time turn over their roster and keep things fluid and with potential...they don't wait yrs with zero evidence of a guy on the field to only then realize they just don't have it....and we start all over agian...or we stockpile a roster of coach's fav's and ST only guys and then all of a sudden in the spot we are now we do this already with long in tooth guys...and guys who been here a bit but never good enough to make the starting 12...and a lot of the times it actually weakens us....so you are right...it's gonna aid their development and maybe open eyes and realize wow this dude can ball...or if you were smart about it you would get rid of these guys...bring in new bodies and strengthen yourself...There is no law that says whomever you break camp with is the team...cut and dried...but seems with this group thats how they roll unless an injury forces the hand Collin Kornelson is a good case...showed zero last yr....went back for a 6th yr of University came back again...still showed nothing really...bumped a guy off roster who had played last yr....showed nothing in 6 games...and was knocked of by guy he bumped off...then weeks later cut....that shouldn't have been a 2 yr odyssey Thomas in TC this yr...who he outplay?...did he even participate?....there were multiple guys who showed more than he had in yrs....yet game 1...there he was...sucking wind...and sucking ass....this been a 12 yr odysee....that should have been put out to pasture 4 yrs ago really....In 4 yrs we could have developed a new pillar....but nope practices are a joke....if you dont earn/show it in TC and in pre-season...and have a coach whop favors and plays fav's and old vets that had success yrs ago....good luck getting on the roster Osh basically showed his mentality early in yr..I think late in camp...something to the affect "you look at a guys film from yrs ago...and see what he can do, and the success they had..., and thats why you have them here' ....or something like that....thats just a poor assed way to justify your decisions....yrs ago...in football a yr ago can be night and day...let alone yrs ago....plain stupid
  15. ha!...we have a ton of scrubs who play incessantly...whats one more that less a scrub...and if a scrub..Why did dear leader keep him then??? I agree about looking down the road tho...of we did...likely 3..4 guys would not be currently here....but we dont do that here we have several no-stringers taking regular reps...so a 3rd stringer would be welcome....
  16. nor is intensity...physicality....having to react...list goes on and on you cant get in to game condition either in practice...not in this day and age
  17. they dont ripen with no playtime...if anything they stagnate and it slows their development And interesting you mentioned those 2...guys allowed to get at er right out of the gate...learn as they go....Verasuk is another being afforded the same opportunity...DeQuay before them....Richards got a ton of playtime but got hurt....thats to just name a few Nobody ripens in practice.....just doesnt happen
  18. can chase punts too....athletic dline guys as well....going 3 import olin here this yr just robbing Peter to pay Paul and the net gsin is miniscule if at all..... I think it's more the value Eli brings to the Te and jumbo/short yardage package and the lack of faith in Kolo being the 6th oline guy and no ability at all to do what Eli does...hence by default he stays at center....cause nobody can say Eli doesnt excell at that role...a role of blocking and getting into the second level and taking guys out part of the poor roster issue and lack of keeping any around....We have Cobb...a guy with a couple yrs experience...scored a few TD's...averaged over 8 yrds a punt return...shade over 23 on kick offs...he being left off.....so explain that?...They seemed very happy to pick him up Covered kicks in pre-season.....so his value is he backs up 2 positions...plays teams ..and is experienced....and Canadian...how does Thomas....Ball...Weitz...Korn...Corcorran...get on before him?.....has more real value than all those plugs combined
  19. what's the ST only prospects looking like?...lol...
  20. among many others....our guys....nadda... Anthoiny Bennet...the 26 yr old playing against 18 to 21 yr olds...stupidest pick ever and his uselessness was easily seen...only one 's saying pro ready was our duffess staff trying to justify it
  21. How is that rushing tho?...it's developing, and assessing....and if you can get more value out of them over the 3 yrs even better. Other teams have first yr guys every yr making impacts...draft picks and recruited guys....Us rarely and even then...it's cause we had to play a new guy due to injury or defection....I can't even think of a player we played who pushed out a vet.....Thats how we got T.Jones...vet guy who got cut as they determined a rookie was better option...and he won R.O.Y...woulda never got that chance here..... Our coache's are quite comfortable rostering and playing crap too...so if the young players...National and Import are better...then that's a win Guys not getting a sniff at all too can wanna leave as well after those 3 yrs when they see counterparts elsewhere getting to play, or a lil tampering goes on and are told "hey you come here next yr...you will play"....then we right back to square one again Reps in a blowout loss or win are wayyyyyy more valuable and inciteful than running skelly in practice....or playing the part of the team we playing next week players we did it with Cooley one game as well...and saw nary a rep...I have no faith they will know what to do with Logan until shown otherwise Jones was used a lot on defense the one game....and was our best of the yr, and also the game coincidently where T.Jones picked up his play too, The fact we stopped using him on defense was kinda dumb...and our defense hasnt looked as good the last 2 games due to it
  22. you dont develop in practice...you need real reps...In games where the outcome was basically a non issue...and there been many....they should have got a lot of reps....but we risked our starters if for anything getting hurt in a lost cause....and we all know we can ill afford any injury Also it would make practical sense to allow then rotational reps here and there as well un a game ...we trot out other guys who in all reality do nothing for us and at times are a detriment...so really not trying your rookies...especially one whom was touted by many experts the most po ready guy in the draft
  23. haha....yeah I didnt even wanna bring up the offence side of things.....Cobb being on as opposed to Weitz or Thomas tho almost makes sense eh? But it's a really sad state of affairs that you depth receivers are those 2 guys, and that for the yr we have only had 1 guy on as depth...a rookie at that ....have sure dodged a bullet with not having 2 injuries on offence tho.....especiaLLY when we set out with a not ready Schoen and a guy in Demski who has been knicked up a lot the last few seasons...and as the only real threat now is gonna get beat to a pulp we just cahneg positions for them to make it seem like we have depth and coverage hahaha...Like Ayers as a dlineguy so people cant say we dress too few
  24. We have 17 lb's/Db's on roster....38% of our roster....yet only 8 see actual "regular" reps....and another gets on in a lot of packages...A Canadian and gets abused relentlessly...was Hallet...Lately been Kelly....and if we get an injury, the bulk of those remaining 9 guys should never see the field...and the ones who should to see if they can contribute and grow...(Shay/Smith/Ayers and Jones when in) don't get any meaningful reps....someone explain that to me And then we also roll with our worst dline guy likely on the roster getting the most reps not counting WJ and Vaughters...another head scratcher....and we wonder why we have issues at times, and any injury issues and we hooped with nobody with any experience...let alone trust
