As for this game, as long as the Stamps OL gives BLM time, he will tear apart any team, anywhere, any time.... The CGY Offense last night had a less than perfect showing, in fact only scored as many points as we did and against a bad defense. DeVone Claybrooks's defense is the perfect example of a unit that always is up for the task and gives up nothing, and is why the Stamps just don't lose much.

I don't. Just speculating. The same thing could be said for every position. It seems everyone was critical of Roc Carmicheal. Do people think he was always responsible for every pass that was caught behind him & he was in chase mode? Where was Lofler on some of those plays as support? What about blown assignments by others that might have affected Roc? If he thinks he's getting help when he's supposed to but isn't then criticizing him the way fans did here was wrong also as every long pass completed isn't his fault then either. Do any of his critics know Roc's exact assignments or reads here, either? Edited August 27, 2017 by SpeedFlex27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 So during the game yesterday, they mentioned that Newsome was hurt when the Riders let him go. That's against the rules. They going to punish Jones for that BS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueandgold Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Hurl isn't good, but he's serviceable and a Canadian. We don't really have a better import option to play, so it isn't worth changing the ratio in order to accommodate an import in the starting lineup. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba Zanetti Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) Except for the fact that he was benched by MOS...? That leads me to believe that the team was not happy with his play. Edited August 27, 2017 by Bubba Zanetti ll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Hurl already lost his job once... he'd only playing because Walters et al decided DL was more important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody outside the organization knows enough to criticize... Well to be fair, him getting benched this last game did seem to help our D play a "Little" bit better. It's still a long way from what our friends in Calgary got going, but it's a tad better. What I am afraid of is that weaknesses like Hurl and Carmichael are symptoms of a bigger problem known as Richie Hall. Make no mistake, MOS's loyalty and strengths far outweigh his weaknesses, but I'm afraid he's hitched his wagon a little too tight to Hall. I believe bend but don't break is the wrong way to go about defense. Now, in case anyone was wondering, I have nothing personal against Richie Hall, nor do I wish him to fail. All I believe in is just calling it as I see it and holding a coach accountable when he must be. Also on the other site there is a poster who is so in bed with Richie Hall he believes the littlest, and I mean the smallest minute criticisms of Hall should be shut down in Cuban like fashion. I mean, Castro himself could not have had all criticisms of government censored in a better way than what that childish poster wants. So just if I get a little too tough on Richie, it's not him personally, blame that poster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just really wanted him to make the play because I knew exactly what this place was going to look like after he missed it lol.. Westerman and Jeffcoat both got shook off as well.. as have countless other defenders in the last how many seasons.. just.. grr. wanted that play.
