JuranBoldenRules Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 5 minutes ago, Captain Blue said: I am not against dressing more DL to help with a rotation, but I would also mention that this point is overblown given how good our defense has been this year. It's the CFL, all defenses are going to get beat up a bit sometimes. For my money I think the offense is much more problematic. Collaros has struggled far more this year protecting the ball and the offense as a whole is way more inconsistent (compared to the defense). And despite all that I still think we are the best team in the league. Toronto certainly has a good argument as well given the better record and defending champ title but I want to see how they handle things when the schedule is more compressed. By reading this I believe you don't really understand the point. It's not like it's the same to run the guys out there for 60 snaps instead of 40 or 45. You'd rather have Jeffcoat at his best for 40 snaps than dead tired for 70. It's not really an either/or situation. They have the roster spot to get another body on D.

rebusrankin Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 So Zach is correct, CFL clearly does not give a darn about player safety. Imagine a guy head butting Mahomes or Rodgers after the play. Dude would be ejected and Goodell would have suspended him before he got back to the locker room.

There's nothing in the rules that says the zero becomes one in OT. The one thing you’re all forgetting is all scoring plays are automatically reviewed.

Eternal optimist Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Has anyone else noticed our offense has morphed into how it was when Buck Pierce was QB? Feast for Famine, no sustained drives - lots of all-or-nothing style of play (1st down incomplete passes etc) Fatty Liver and Mark F 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the first 20 mins of the game when our O completely didn't show up but started between the 40 and midfield the whole time while Sask was pinned inside their 20 until their big play over Houston.

I assume and would hope that they are comfortable with say Jeffcoat playing a high number of snaps if they are playing only 6 DL. I think this point has been beaten so thoroughly here that we haven't given much thought to if there are alternative reasons why they would make the decision they have. I am not even saying Osh is correct in this decision, just that I think a stance has been taken here and we haven't looked at potential reasons why they haven't made a change.

Imagine a guy head butting Mahomes or Rodgers after the play. Dude would be ejected and Goodell would have suspended him before he got back to the locker room. Pete Robertson has to be fined and suspended for head-butting Collaros and then giving him a knee to the head while the QB - who has a history of concussions - is still on the ground. I thought Robertson should have been ejected on the spot for intent to injure. And if it was up to me, I'd ban him from the league. The problem is that none of the on-field officials saw what happened and the infraction had to be identified by CFL central. rebusrankin, Mark F and Bombertown 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could very well be. Hockey players attacking others with a stick have been charged criminally. This was obviously not part of the game. Collaros wasn't expecting contact there and there's no consent because play is so over. Eternal optimist, BigBlueFanatic and rebusrankin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
