    HardCoreBlue got a reaction from blueandgoldguy in The everything about Brohm thread   
    I agree, but regardless of it being an ultra conservative game plan with little creativity, I'm sure his reads included Moore, Denmark, Kohert etc.  He didn't get them the ball. That's not all on the OL line. He takes part of that accountability.

    The quality of how he played football has little to do with his level of business acumen.

    I prefer to look at every game as an opportunity for a win, whether I'm playing in it or watching it. I prefer not to take the defeatist attitude, but you and the OP, and a few others, are welcome to revel in it.
    I'm fully aware of what has happened in the past, but you know what…I don't care about those games..in the past. Tomorrow's game brings the promise of change and a victory, by any means.
    Am i setting myself up for disappointment? Possibly..but it doesn't matter, I'm a big boy..I can handle it.

    What does it matter what people thought at the beginning of the season?  Most of the people on this board are fans and for the most part over value the talent we have and want to cheer for the team they follow.
     
    Most people on this board who thought these things aren’t in practices to evaluate the QBs. Most people on this board don’t watch game film to dissect the decisions the QB made on the called play and what the defense was showing.
     
    Most people on this board were happy with what we had until they had a chance to actually see it.  So what exactly is your point here?  That people shouldn’t complain about the QBs because they were happy at the beginning of the season? That makes no sense.
     
    You really also can’t throw out numbers like 95% of the people thought the QB depth was fine. Maybe 95% of the people who posted thought the QB depth was fine, but that is something entirely different. Unless you go back and can correlate the people who said they were happy with the depth are now the ones complaining about it, it really has no correlation.   I’m also sure 95% of those 95% of the people also thought Drew Willy would play for at least 80% of the games…

    Troy Westwood's response about sask fans being banjo playing in-bred folk and then retracting saying some of them probably don't play the banjo. The rest, as we know, is history.

    Brohm's starting? Sure hope we give Walker & Marshall 40+ carries then. Or, just punt on first down. Either is preferable.

    Geez man, it seems sometimes, not always, that anytime a person posts something that runs counter to what you believe, you respond with these type statements. The hypocrisy is dripping here.
    I think some of of us take more of an eclectic approach to politics and sensitive issues by not branding our ideologies as left, center or right. We take it issue by issue using the best facts available to form our perspectives. We sometimes don't get it right but always try to take an evidence-informed approach, identifying any bias's we may have a long the way. We can't brand ourselves with only one political strip but we can always aspire to be a sound critical thinker hopefully adding value to the discussion.

    Oh man we owned Javier Glatt so bad all game. Open up a dictionary, look at "chase position," you'll see a picture of Glatt.
    I'll never ever forget this game. My wife and I had flown to Istanbul on vacation. We were in the air for a day, we were too tired to do anything when we landed. Got into our hotel, got down into the lounge, had a beer and some awesome mezze, opened up my laptop, found a stream just as Arceneaux caught that sweet TD bomb from Jarious. Figured, aw ****, here we go again .. and then Reid and Bernard got to work. Amazing.

    One of my biggest pet peeves regardless of team.
    The other? Defensive players showboating after making a tackle when the offensive player makes big yards. Ridiculous. Get up, line up and make sure he doesn't do it again.

    HardCoreBlue got a reaction from Tracker in The Day Early Game Day Thread - TOR @ WPG   
    Exactly. And to boot (wow, I did a pun) he made an extremely weak attempt at tackling. He's got to make that tackle, I don't care he's the kicker, I'm sure he's been taught. Brutal.
    Entertaining game to watch. For his first game as starter with us, Marve played well, really liked his involvement with the team, his energy, how he hung in the pocket knowing he's going to take a hit. Especially liked how he went over to LH after kicking a FG.
    Cam Marshall seems to be a keeper.
    As per JBR's point last week, our from four played really well.
    Milt made an excellent point at half time about some players forgetting the basics of football in form tackling and blocking and more on wanting that sport centre highlight. Milt's my man.
    As much as I loathe the Argo's, I got to say I'm a Kackert fan now. Loved how he told Sara O how he felt after the Bass hit and loved how he explained missing the team feeling when they score a TD. I'd take him on my team any day.

    Yes you are wrong.  The way the defense was playing there's no reason to give the safety.  Hajrullahu was kicking with a strong wind, should have been able to net 45 on that kick easy.  Hajrullahu hit a terrible punt in the middle of the field.  The goal is to put it between the numbers and the sideline.  Just a terrible kick, no coaching mistakes, unless you think we should get a better punter.

    Other than extreme cases, it's usually a mesh of both that explains why things happened the way it did. E.g., 21 plays were a result of good defensive play. 19 plays were a result offensive poor execution.

    Mostly because if Cato's first read isn't there he's leaving the pocket regardless of how much time he has.  Feel bad for those OL, it's the worst blocking for a QB with happy feet like that because you never know what he's doing.  You could have a great pocket and then the idiot runs right into the pass rusher that you've blocked perfectly.

    If I was Creehan, I'm bringing the heat a lot and when I'm not, I'm faking that I'm bringing the heat. We have shown we struggle with this style of defense.
