Mikawos was a good one.  Watching vintage games with him as a NT, that dude could move a center around.  Glad he got that 84 grey cup TD on his resume.

guy who legit could play Nose...or DT...and allowed us to do so much on defence back in those days with our front

So Schoen tore his ACL in Calgary … and we let him play on it? 

[17to85]

Just insanity.

[blue85gold]

Schoen looked to be a generational talent at receiver in his first two seasons and he might be done. Just absolutely devastating. 

[JohnnyAbonny]

The way they handled the situation with Schoen is a black mark on the whole franchise. Rushing him back for the start of this season, then rushing him back after a month with a known (second-time) torn ACL is inexcusable. Someone needs to legit lose their job for that.

I'm sure Schoen was begging to get back into the game as well, but management should have said, no you're sitting until you're 100%.

Said right from day one...bad signing banking on him being one your guys tis yr.....maybe a late season add being on 6 game all yr and stull rehabbing, but banking on him being the "guy"...just dumb

And....we may have just screwed his career permanently.....what a sad group we have pulling the  strings

We obviously rushed Logan back and tried to get him in as he was so not ready yet...guy is an explosive player...and he had none of that in those 2 games...afyer the first he should have been sat down....but nope

We cut a guy....only to bring him back at DT when he wasn't even needed...again...just pathetic

We watched in real time how 2 Bozo's can effectively kill a dynasty ..one of generational making and almost make the actual couple seasons of Championship play almost irrelevant really...mainly due to incompetence...stubbornness and total lack of vision and ability to sustain....and in pretty short order....the sooner we rid ourselves of them...the better as they show zero signs let alone ability to evolve

12 yrs is a long time...we had a nice lil run...caught a lil lightning in a bottle almost, but man....what a mess...and self inflicted at that

You would think he may have...but O doubt it...A guy knows with that injurywhen you ready...and you wouldnt risk it...and really a team should never listen to the player....I have my doubts tho based on yrs of playing hurt guys....

Even in the Grey Cup...Schoen said he was shocked he was rostered and wasn't even really prepared....Thats all on dear leader sadly....Guys a moron

I’d like to know why the team dr/medical staff expected rehab without surgery to be good enough for Schoen to play again this season. I get rehab alone can work for an average joe, but it seems crazy to trust it for a guy who runs and gets hit for a living. 

[Super Duper Negatron]

I am shocked!

 

Not really.

And also missed most of last year for the exact same injury.

you cant rehab a torn acl....need to surgically repair it, and who knows if it also cause cartilage damage too

You can rehab and actually play thru/with and mcl one tho...but wasnt the case here...right after the CGY he should have been shut down for yr and scheduled forsurgery...gross incompatnce...malpractice...call it what you want

Miller must or should be seriously considering waxing this group out the door...like when is enough stupidity enough?
