  1. Awful offensive play calling. Draw on the QB draw on the goal line with Nichols in? Sure, it's not expected but not likely to succeed either. Wildcat with Harris? He's obviously getting the ball and running. Two games in a row that he's tried that with a fumble and a procedure as a result. Where were the screens? Nice to see a couple deep shots, if only Matthews and Woli caught them. Agree totally with Suitor (ugh), Nichols is playing not to throw picks. Needs to get back to earlier in the season when he was attempting more than 2 passes down field a game.
  2. Excited to see Grant on the returns. With 8 return TDs in college, his highlight video is something else.
  3. I wouldn't be upset if they scratched Walker and let Whitehead and Demski handle the returns. Peterman could probably return punts too. Get Matthews into some offensive plays, work him back into the lineup.
  4. He really hasn't pulled a Bowman though. Bowman was healthy and did nothing. Matthews just hasn't been able to get healthy yet. Having a big receiver like him will come in handy when the weather gets colder.
  5. Ya, gonna call BS on him being a healthy scratch. It's not like Lawler was great in his place. Matthews said he was good to go, but players always say that. I'm sure Bighill would have said that too the last couple weeks.
  6. Not sure if he's better, but he certainly can be explosive.
  7. Likely Bighill or Temple as the scratch depending on Bighill's health.
  8. He's right there with the other starters. Can definitely be better but his accuracy in OTT wasn't an issue. Weird that Strevler is being pumped up on that link. Did he even attempt a pass further than 10 yards downfield?
  9. Exactly. They gave up over 300 yards passing, but on 54(!) attempts.
  10. Not a great but a W is a W. Bodes well for the rest of the season when they can have that many mistakes ans still win. If you had told me that Harris would have 30 yards rushing and 2 fumbles, Woli, Adams, and Matthews would have a combined 16 yards receiving and we would lose the turnover battle (before the last two on downs for the Esks), I'd have said no way we win. The fact that they win a game like that, against a decent team, without scoring on D or teams shows that they are legit.
  11. Grant, Ploen, Stegall for all the reasons posted above. Went with Cameron for the 4th pick based on how long he played with the blue.
  12. Pretty sure that was all speculation. We really have no idea what their cap looks like.
  13. This year's Bighill signing. Exactly the type of receiver we need to compliment the others.
  14. Ya it's disappointing how the receiver plan has worked out so far. Sounds like Walters tried but nothing worked out. I feel the same way I did last year when we missed out on all the MLBs in FA, but hey that worked out in the end.
  15. Options are getting thin now if Matthews is looking NFL. Arceneaux and hope one of the guys trying down south shakes loose?
  16. As much as it would be great to get an elite receiver, getting a couple of the second tier guys would be great to take the pressure off Adams and open up some more space. Any of Roosevelt, Matthews, Holley, Arceneaux would be help.
  17. Sounds like it is. Not 100% until he's signed elsewhere I suppose.
  18. Sucks to lose Chungh and JSK, but if we're going to lose star players, losing a guard and WIL LB isn't so bad. Two of the easier positions to replace.
  19. Let's hope Harris stays in OTT and Bo goes to TO. Time for a little more parity between the east and west.
  20. I remember the years of blowing up the team management every few years and resetting. After the last 3 years I'm all for giving Walters and O'Shea more time. As disappointing as the loss in Calgary was, we were still a few plays away from a Grey Cup appearance.
  21. Exactly. We never attacked the defense. What happened to all the creative plays we practiced? We bring a quick kick returner on to the roster and start him at received and then don't run any plays to get the ball in his hands? The whole game felt like pound it with Harris on 1st down for 5-6 yards. Have all the receivers run 5 yards and turn around on 2nd.
  22. Agree, he's a good guys to have on the roster, just don't love him starting at CB.
