Booch

yeah I hear ya...I was just emphasizing your correct observation

and in 2019...we made some significant moves and juggling in the back 3rd of the season too....we realized issues then....hopefully this staff realizes them again

rotation....with the right personnel would be a night and day difference...thats the key part to it....and we could do it with the right ones if we wanted to, thats the frustrating part Decent also doesn't cut it....and I dont think he is the best option, and I know exactly why he being the option right now, but why beat a dead horse to death...He is an Osh fav in cole's notes and will be there until he gets injured now His post game presser as well gave no confidence in anything they are doing or thinking as well....he almost seems clueless or oblivious to things

BO has been fine in pass protection...thats not an issue....to me it's more scheme and flip flopping what we are as a unit....so no doubt there is confusion and simple errors....and also....Kolo is not the best option , and a simple switch to Eli would inject a lot to the oline production...Dude is freaky athletic for a big dude...mean, and just moves men...Kolo doesnt....he's an adequate back up.....and again....where would he start in the league if not here?...dump Eli and he's be in a lineup day 1... Harris was a nice safety valve when we had Nichols...look at his stats when ZC took over...they went down in that regard by 75%....we as an offence didn't utilize that..It's not that BO couldn't replicate it...I bet he could and more if we chose to....but we don't...so he won't

YUP...We need to get back to 2019 defensive set up roster wise, as well as insert some hungry players who are earning the spot on the field...not rewarded it

Not concerned with WJ...He's a freak athlete, and is being worn down, he needs to have things back to 65 75% of snaps, and he will be dominate....there a reason he seems to have hit a bit of a wall.....If we had a rotation of the Jeff's and Haba, along with Hansen in lieu of Mauro...I assume he ahs to be close....and things right there would look like a world of difference, and they would be fresh throughout the game. Our interior tho after Lawson and Walker sucks....bigtime, and Walker and Lawson could use another impactful DT in a bad way to make them more effective, they decent, but not world beaters alone, but with a compliment to them, things again would be different...We have Fox on the PR....he looked decent in his one start, and looked good in BC....Why we don't even just try it to see is plain foolish, and if the staff think he is no better than Bennett and Thomas...then why is he here??? Thomas in my opinion should been replaced this yr, and his best before date is long expired...he has a few stats, but he himself even admitted he got those stats from the play basically just being filtered into him...watch him now...he has a bull rush, and it's rarely impactful and he gets engaged and cant release....and you usually see him jogging up behind the play basically doing nothing. Same with Bennett...has made maybe 3 plays of impact all yr, gets fooled often, and really doesn't seem to have a nose for the ballcarrier...Cole or Clements could give the same input off the edge and actually track a QB or rb down from behind and keep contain way better...but he is our 1st round pick (awful pick btw) so we will be saddled with him all yr.....Cause they don't wanna look like the made a mistake. And don't even get me started on Schmeckle...like wtf is that and wtf kind of pick was that in draft If you lined up our roster, outside of the Jeff's....Lawson and Haba what other players would get picked up if we dumped them, or make another teams roster?...I tell you...none...Maybe a PR spot but that would be a stretch Sadly things are easily fixed moving forward....if we want to do it...I would have the Jeffs' with a rotation with Haba (for Jackson) also you have Lawson as the starter, not Thomas, and truthfully I would take Thomas right off the roster and replace him with Kelly mainly for ST work, and back-up safety/db....We aren't using Cole and Clements effectively on defence as it is, and never together so pick one and replace the other with Fox....and allocate one of the Jeff's as a Nationalized American.....We would then have the Jeff's...Haba...Walker...Fox...Lawson....and Bennett 7 dlineman who save for Bennet could all be very effective, as opposed to the man group we been trotting out...2 of whom could effectively be cut and we wouldn't miss them....how anyone can say that lineup wouldn't make us a better defence and a more well rounded roster is just plain not looking, or too blind to see it Cause as it appears we seem to be tied to starting Kramdi at SAM...why I dont know, as he is nothing special, and average at best, so we could run many a set with our 4 best dlineman on the field at will...all American and all with ability to make a difference with no effect to the ratio... I would also swap the Aussie punters to see if that helps in the kicking game, and let Schmidt try kickoffs too...and boom them deep...he can kick off btw...seen it personally....and he can boom punts with killer hangtime....then decide who makes our squad better...because all year now....kick coverage has been abysmal and is killing us in games and giving teams basically gifted 3 points way too often..... I would also be in Hallerjula ears for next year....cause they way we are rosterd that DA on a kicker is crippling us, if we could get him and have him do all 3 jobs we be so much better off...Castillo sure is good, but if you wasting a DA on him he needs to be Medlock good and do all the kicking roles...That woukd allow us to roster a Hansen and a karomoka who would help us big time on teams and have ability to back up a few of the DB positions and SAM

Basically this is it..and it's not wholesale changes and extreme measures that are needed...but issues serious enough they can't be left as it...14 games in now...and it's apparent as ever...if not worse...

Needed tonne making some a few weeks ago already when it was apparent where our weaknesses and inefficiency is I hope so...but not super confident...look how many games we been unprepared and out coached to start....whoever we face is gonna be a hungry team who hasn't been there in a long time....no complacency will.be there with them Yup...cause as we are constructed now...and what we have shown...2 top notch games in a row...with one having to be on road is nowhere close to being a given with this team right now...we have 4 games to make some serious tinkering.. We did in 2019 which put us over.. Hopefully O'Shea goes and revisits previous success and what was key in it You recall me saying weeks ago...not addressing things and letting them fester and have wins gloss over it? Well the puss is starting to ooze out of a festering wound now at worst time in season from in my observation where only teams that aren't progressing and getting better are us and the riders...and that is saying something

Wow..just got home..looks like Ott may do us a favor

Why would u take out the best safety on roster? They figured Darby wasn't doing the job...and Kramdi got the reward...plain and simple Eli is far better...Kolo is an adequate replacement at best...and is being rewarded for last yr stepping in when we had nobody..that's how Osh rolls..and it's not good practice

Fact of matter....we use nationalized American on both sides of ball...makes us better We take Jackson out and add an actual impact dlineman we better if Osh feels the need to start an inferior Kramdi than an American...then we don't start Thomas and we use Fox and Walker and we better...we don't have to start 8 Canadians..and they way Osh works roster we don't even dress the import to take advantage of it We start Eli over Kolo...we better...The center ranked in the top 2 of all of NCAA football is biggr and better than Kolo who we pulled off street after 2 yr out of ball cause nobody wanted him...he's undersized and weak link We use an actual returner ...whom we have and use Parker as extra db and rotation...we better Now....why aren't we? We put Schmeckle on roster...who should have been cut in first round of cuts...then don't use him when our Dline was gassed...why? I wanna hear how all.that makes us a better team from the coach....and on here would like to hear an actual explanation as to why anyone thinks this is all good We have regressed...records shows it now...have less depth...which is obvious...and have been outcoached and unprepared too many times....we got lucky to beat CGy in one game....were down 22 zip to a winless squad...lost to Ott and now Hamilton...what's their combined records? Also lost to a crappy rider team...who cares if it was LDC...shouldn't matter...and we were embarrassed beyond belief at home by a team on our asses for first...how anyone can say we good...Osh knows what he's doing...we won a cup...2 yrs ago now...is a complete idiot...sorry to offend you...but that's the facts....he is coach I want...but also want him to adapt and grow...and he's not...mainly cause he a stubborn prick....well now is time to coach like a prick cause coddling... favorites and complacent attitude has crept in...and that becomes the demise of real good team's....great ones don't allow it...we ain't great no more....sometimes truth and reality stings but if not addressed now it will be a one and done more likely than not in the playoffs

Regardless...would help out game day bigtime and our coach refuses to use it

Yeah not an extra per say on roster...but an extra on the Feild...

Yup...Osh don't like it cause his Canadian bias...and it hurts us...same reason Kramdi is in...we have better options there that are import..and we don't even need a Canadian there...but it's another Osh boner putting him there for no reason other than that stubborness I do

I said right away...was totally dumb...gave Momo right back to Hamilton...stupid stupid

I said months ago O'Shea needs to turn up the being a prick...and not a buddy Like mentioned.... complacency set in as guys know...I been here a few yrs now ....I safe...and that also can break down locker rooms too...seen that first hand as well

Tell me about it

A guy like say Jeffcoat...Jefferson can take 29 snaps as a Canadian and u can rotate in a Haba...Fox..Garbutt in for a Canadian...in a nut shell...and u can do it on offence too

HC generally don't do much other than set roster and make game day decisions...2 of Osh biggest faults...

Hmm....have been saying that for weeks if nothing was changed....is it clear now?? Not get rid of a few...shuffle the deck....we have guys inhouse who would help bigtime...but we continue to hamstring roster with poor player management..and not using the nationalized American ain't helping either...all teams use it....but us....why?

Shouldn't be tho....a team touting the "culture" and room....and supposed can't do no wrong coach should never let that happen...over and over

We sure do our best and go out of our way to make piss poor teams look good.....hello coaching staff that's on u for coddling and putting no fear in any player they will be replaced for poor play..happened too many times this yr...secure west final is gonna be tough if changes aren't made...it's pretty evident after another dud....and yup...can't deny we have regressed now Kool aide slurpers

Why force that...Lawler looked open

Now....typical bomber grind it out drive

For all his good plays he has two bad ones. That's why they hate... That and the fact we don't need to start an extra Canadian there doesn't help
