JohnnyAbonny Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) IMO- 3 biggest reasons they lost, in no particular order. 1. The Prukop play was inexcusable, just a horrible call in that situation. 2. The o-line in pass pro was terrible. 3. The missed convert. To add, too many linemen on both sides past their best before dates, and not scouting harder at DT was a huge mistake. Roster management for this game and the WF was putrid.

JuranBoldenRules Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 I didn't mind the Prukop stuff as part of the run game, but there's no way I'm letting that guy throw a pass let alone 2 in this game. He's not Streveler. We did need him for the run game though to make the Argos actually defend the edge. We just haven't gameplanned the Argos well in years. They put a bunch of big DB's out there and challenge QB's to try to find gaps downfield with a nice pass rush too. We just keep running the same two guys on posts and corners and trying to make it happen. Bigblue204, HardCoreBlue, BomberD and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BagBlieBulls Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 We lost because we had to face Toronto and the league has never gone more than a handful of years without a champ in Toronto. It's mandated so the league stays alive because if those mediocre chumps don't win 1-2 times/decade the league will fold. Toronto will have 5k on attendance at their home opener next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Prukop second and short and maybe a first down on hurry up, but no business being out there for so many first downs. And I don't think we ran any sweeps to the edge with Demski or Bailey tonight. Could those have forced them to defend the edge?

Goalie Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Collaros needs to learn to take what they give you and against the Argos especially. Seen this game before vs Toronto. CodyT and Zach Schnitzer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BagBlieBulls Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 We lost the moment the Argos won the east final. Toronto will always win the cup because the league will fold if they don't rebusrankin and Wideleft 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the league has preferences but I think it's a bad slope to go down to start making up excuses and conspiracies to why we lost.
