Floyd Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Richie Hall and Sam Hurl versus Mark Trestman and Ricky Ray. DL needs a big big game... Toronto is a pass happy team, if Ray has time, he'll be 400+ yards. rebusrankin and Atomic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted July 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 2 games in a row Okp went down. He did come back and play against sask but he got up awful slow vs the stamps. I think he might miss this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 God help us if Ray gets time and Carmichael and Hurl are still starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Sort of excited to see Knox at WIL. Wish we were using anybody else at HB and Roc was benched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Ottawa did the same thing we did...essentially gave the game away. 17 points, off a fumble, an interception and a quick kick that was poorly executed. So, the Argos scored a FG and a great long pass play to SJ Green on their own. We can stop their Offence. It's their defence we should be concerned with. Our Offence better be ready for their attack because they have some very good players who will give our O-Line fits. If we play a full game, we'll get the W. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeBird Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 How often do we hear about our DE's? Oh yeah! We did hear about Westerman's too many roughing the passer penalties. Their QB's roll out into bald prairie, eat a few bites of their snack and throw a completed pass. More often than not they have rolled out the right side and there has not been anyone coming at them. Our containment has been just terrible. Four sacks! Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do or die Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 ....been that way even in the X season. Really like what Nevis is doing and Johnson brings some push.....but the DE have been somewhat less than advertised....to be fair, two games in.

Noeller Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Knox and Jeffcoat is really exciting. Not so much about Carmichael..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Should see no drop-off really with Jeffcoat, as Opo I don't think has got his CFL groove back. Knox too I like in that spot..let's see if he will step up...Will miss Wild's leadership tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't pleased with his play against CGY. Seemed to get mixed up on pass plays often. Edited July 10, 2017 by Bigblue204 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 I am going to make a bold prediction: Carmichael is so vulnerable and Ray is so deadly a passer that, if Carmichael starts and plays the game, we will lose. Hurl is still a liability but he can be compensated for a lot easier than an inept d-back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 The scary part of losing Wild is losing his role in pass coverage. He often plays a deep half as a safety (cover 2) and they do a lot of shifting of positions between Wild, Leggett and Loffler. I don't believe Knox is quite as experienced with coverages, he's more a straight up LB. Expect to see him blitzing a lot.

Old Bomber Fan Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Here is some food for thought. Who will outcoach who MOS or Trestman. Let me make a prediction that I hope doesn't come true. While it is a given Trestman will outcoach MOS, I believe we have more talent. With that said watch Ray throw a couple of short passes aka LaPolice style but just long enough to bring in the DBs then dump it over their heads to a streaking receiver NOT aka La Police. I fear for this game but think we may squeak out a win if we keep the defense off the field for a reasonable amount of time. If we cannot move the ball we will lose then again I guess that is a forgone conclusion isn't it. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if another db on the field instead of Knox would be a better option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted July 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 the answer is simple. We need more and higher class strip clubs in the city. It has paid off for the Als for many of years, and we have been missing the boat. rex and GCJenks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they are consistent...? All hail Trestman and Popp and their consistent 2-1 team. Truly remarkable consistency. I didn't take his example to mean that we(the Boatmen) are by any means a consistent team (yet). I took it to mean that the coaching job of switching a godawful team (us, 2nd 2/3rds last season) to a competent one that can compete (us, so far) is simpler than taking a team that looks different every week and addressing the different issues that pop up.

Taynted_Fayth Posted July 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 With Johnson, Wild and Okpalaugo(Likely) out this week, I have the feeling we're going to need to go toe to toe with the argos offensively to win this one. something like that 43-40 game a few weeks back. I sure hope Lapo takes off the kids gloves and calls a infinitely better game on thursday than fridays SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBlue Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 I expect Trestman is going to gameplan at our LBers ... rookie at one spot, slow foot at another and overloaded at the third .... might see a lot of counters and wide receiver sweeps and reverses on the running side while picking apart our zone defense as only Ray can .... we better hope we can get some consistent pressure on him ... so far our blitz has been more like a blintz, very flat with no bite Fatty Liver and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
