rebusrankin Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 I am happy to see our young guys and to watch a game where I don't have to stress. @Noeller, no waiting until 11:30 to start this time.

captaincanuck12 Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 I will still get mad if they lose. A 30 year cup drought does that to people. It's good to see the young guns get their time in the limelight. Jesse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Still not a fan of putting the brakes on before the playoffs.. but if guys are nicked getting them some more time to rest is good and it's always fun to see what the young fellas are capable of. Either way, send the lame horses to the glue factory. Noeller, HardCoreBlue and GCJenks 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, send the lame horses to the glue factory. Not too worried about the defensive guys....some def need a break, and good rest to be fresh....and it's easier for them to step back in and be right back where they were Offensively tho is a bit a diff feeling...I would start ZC and get him 2..3 series, or put him in midway thru game to run a series of scripted things once we see what Stamps are doing and how our guys are performing Same with our starting skill guys...let them get reps and in sync with game until they feel like they good, and then start rotating guys in....almost 3 weeks off not under live bullet fire for offensive guys can take sometimes a good quarter...even a half to get re-acclimated....too much is made of getting hurt....play as you normally do...within reason Bigblue204 and BomberBall 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 I hope our guys who are getting their shot show well...Brown should see most of the action and Brady should keep himself loose....The meaningful game is a few weeks off and you do not want to come into that one rusty....Cal will also be trying to watch out for injuries and don't expect their top players will hang around long....The game will mean a lot to players trying to have a little spotlight shone their way....Good luck to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Curious about Alston working the slot...Big bodied guy....transparently has real good hands....and if Schoen cant go in WF and he shows well today, if he gets on the roster for the WF over Mcrae?...

I mean if it's BC do we go all in on the multi faceted run game which can include mccrae and just ground and pound the lions defence all day? I dunno think they've kept mccrae around for 2 years they obviously like the guy. Just now, bluto said: You came first and earned the rest.

johnzo Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 I don't think we need to see ZC out there at all: dude doesn't seem to need the game reps to stay sharp and I strongly believe we would have won the cup last year if he wasn't banged up ... he missed some throws in that game that he'd been making all year. Those pinpoint ZC passes weren't happening. (Note: I know nothing about coaching football) Mark F, rebusrankin, Fatty Liver and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
