  1. Yeah....I've already accepted it willbe less than optimal again and have a few "huh" parts to it....and until proven/shown otherwise it's not a stretch to think that SAnd maybe they should put their personal feelings/beliefs/bias aside and utilize hwat every other team is doing "Within the confines of the rules"....there's a grand thjought eh?....It would if anything only make us better....how we are going about i hnadcuffs us....
  2. Nice break down....beats the media fluff all ado about not much...Thanks
  3. If Lawson is healthy again....he's easily in the top 2 or 3 national DT's in the league....and if stays healthy this yr likely stakes a claim as one the best.....Playing behind any other Cdn DT on our roster would be a joke And agree...as for all spots hope none are just handed/rewarded.....but if Evans does what he did again....handles the holder job with no issues for Castillo.....that change has to be made
  4. Key in traffic or with contact not jarring the ball out...guys like him who catch like that just pick ball out of space...its not hitting them...Lawler did it too...rarely seen the ball separated from him when being hit as he caught it...and some catches u were just like...wtf??!? Haa..big sexy ball grabber
  5. Evans looks the part...and has solid background Punter guy looks...well like a gimmicky experiment...which failed...best talent should play and first look was pretty obvious...interesting how his second game looks...
  6. Yeah I seen a lot of progress in Clercius already last yr...and he doesn't need to be a yac machine...Woli wasn't... He is a big target and knows how to use his body to position himself to the ball...is a hand catcher...prob best pure hands on team and his hand strength is insane...perfect for that conversion type guy and getting dirty yards in traffic If u get chance watch some practices and if u able to get close to field...listen...guys like him you barely hear ball...if at all when it hits his hands...big sign look for in a pure pass catcher... He also made some plays last year after the catch where he made yards and destroyed would be tackles...he is gonna be a big piece and guy ZC will be looking for
  7. Prob more about not being ready...and not used to doing things way we do here...as opposed to the Edmonton environment from which he came...maybe figured he'd just have to show up..and it woukd all work out..culture shock I said at the signing that a major score if his head space was right...I guess it needed to be righted a Lil Fact he's been paid big already gives him half a season mulligan so hopefully he makes best if it I'm seeing big Kev being that key conversion safety blanket guy this yr...I bet he gets north of 600 yards and 5 scores...lotsa 2nd down conversions
  8. 3 yrs ago...times have changed...put a fork in jt already Yeah..he had surpassed him...and makes more than him
  9. YOU would think that if he good to go week 2 then one of Thomas/Schmeck is not rostered....3 national DT's is overkill especially with all the athletic guys we have to use instead..Novack..Leroux...a reciever...anyone
  10. Smith tho is an experienced kick and punt returner tho...i expect at worst Cooley is on PR to hone the skill
  11. I am sure he will get firat 3 games....if he just not grasping things or producing...he will be gone....But I will be shocked if he not rostered game 1 in some capacity
  12. most likely...but you never know....trip to the big dance again and lose for much the same issues...or lose out in Semi's or WF again...for same issues....I'd have no issue with moving on...as should the Management have no issue...4 epic fails in a row...when will it end...our last cup victory was 4 yrs ago now...Personally I dont care if we "got" there again if we keep losing it for the same insane stubborn reasons....If we went and replaced the top dog...or promoted say a Younger or Costello from within....does anyone really think we would drop right into the abyss?...Highly doubt it...the culture and way things done here wasn't an invention and a whole new way of doing things created here...it's how good teams operate and we got away from it for a decade or so....part of that dry spell wasn't just incompetence and clown show stuff...some was just the way it goes...some was bad luck I not saying can anyone, but if we fail again....and was preventable if not for the same stubbon reason's and not owning up to a ooop's admission....its time
  13. no coach in history of football is in his spot as long as he wants to be....never happens...they all crash and burn and fall out of favor...just nature of the beast
  14. If he not squared right up with someone immediately he is just lost...and usually they just driving him back into the pocket...his 50's and chips to follow up and engage with his guard in second level is horrendous bordering on non existent...do you every see him in second level or downfield...on seek and destroy? I can't recall...but you see others...what fascination with him Osh has is baffelling..hes undersized...and an undersized center is a bonus if they athletic and active as it allows you to do so much more...and he isn't...just don't get it...and motion in front of him or twists and stunts...fugetaboutit
  15. Net punt is deceiving tho...how many times have u seen a punter kick from between the 20 and 30 right out of scoring range...and our punter guy gets it to midfield...who cares if the net is on par when u still giving up instant scoring position...happened way too often last yr And they said hey..hey never kicked a single...prob cause he needed to be kicking from their 40 to get it there in endzone...so big whip..and how many games have we seen those extra 1..2 points being the difference or reason for a win...a ton So what the odd time u get the single and
  16. If I was next to them I'd grab their horn or whatever they had and snap it in half...and ask whatya gonna do bout it. If I get tossed from the game so be it...but would leave with thunderous cheers I am sure
  17. If zc I'd wanna see Strev get at least the first half...Wilson 3rd and part of 4th...new guy last part of 4th...as there no way in hell he getting in the first game so why bother...hes strictly development guy at this point...hes not unseating and of the 3 ahead of him Even with Schoen back we shoulda still payed Lawler in my opinion...Eliminate D Mitchel and Thomas money...hes paid for....Lawler..Schoen..Clercius..Demski...White would look pretty sweet right about now..
  18. Yeah...with the 3 incumbents i can see white and wheatfall...DMitchel as extra..soley on money tied into him and he can return
  19. Who does work well with Kolo? Lol...our guards basically just cope with it...Vanterpool has progressed a lot..and can play multiple spots..def a keeper but I soooo don't want 3 import oline as it will rape our defence in a huge way
  20. Strev needs to start against starters..with starters to prep for the first game..2 full quarters if not 1.5 quarters....give Wilson the 3rd and a bit...let ZC pick aprt scrubs to.close out..Chase no need...he won't see field this yr and is truly a PR guy...development...sure he looked okay but remember who he was playing against...and when it was in game...was basically scrub/garbage let's get everyone in game on both sides time...put him in 1st thru 2nd quarter and we'd all been saying see ya buddy...hope Elgersma shows up soon
  21. I'm sure those 4 will be the 4 all yr...Greek dude on pr Eli will be fine at guard...but excellent at center...I truly don't want us going 3 imports on online as that basically just takes away a guy on defence...Likely a guy on the dline...if we wanna excell on defence this yr we need a better than solid rotation of 3 import ends..2 import tackles and the Global and one nat dt...if we use an import on oline we will have an interior of schmeck...schmuck and one of adams or Woods and likely no Person or any other import that makes a case for the roster...and if that happens we will get gouged and ate alive upfront and need our backend to be more than exceptional...all the time. And as good as they can be back there...that won't happen If Evans out punts punter guy again...there is no reason he shouldn't get game one...and if ya'll noticed on his punts there was minimal return on them..there's a reason for that I not writing Wheatfall off either...I could see a Schoen..Demski..CLercius..Wheatfall..White and D.Mitxhell group...with Mitchel the DA and punt/kick return guy...63k sunk in a signing bonus assures his ticket on roster and I bet he gets his groove going...this regime isn't one to admit error and bite the bulett on money so hes a lock Yeah Wheatfall showed enough potential last yr..and did have a couple nice plays sat...he oozes potential and hes a returnee ...so I'd be shocked hes not in starting unit...if hes not i bet it's Hall...Whom i pretty sure will be on PR if not on roster
  22. Yeah he has consistently showed poise and confidence in pocket..the instance people seem to be focusing on involved a lot of scrubs and guys likely gone before next preseason game...he may have expected seeing guys doing what was schemed...and they were not executing so yeah..he would look dumb founded...hes on a nice trajectory for being legitimate..has all the tools and also just looks the part
