Argos at Bombers early chat

[sweep the leg]

I hope Oliviera/Peterson get 25+ touches in this game. This ol can still get things done run blocking and we need to ride that on Friday.

Surely with Kody Case out, they will dress Dillon Mitchell

The only other options to bring on the roster are Cobb and the guy we signed last week. It’s gotta be now or never.

[rebusrankin]

So Randolph-Neufeld-Kolo-Eli-Wallace or Randolph-Neufeld-Kolo-Wallace-Lofton are the oline options correct?

WR, it has to be Mitchell right or do they go Corcoran with Cobb as the back up?

Bout the size of it. Small outside chance we Stick Eli at rt, but boy I wouldn’t put my worst enemy at qb with Eli at tackle. 
 

I think Cobb and Corcoran will go in.

I was under the impression that Mitchell plays the same spot as wheatfall so I wouldn’t expect him to take Schoens spot. O’Shea interview where he says we take our time here in making decisions. It’s not gonna happen this week folks. It’s gonna be Corcoran Cobb or new guy. Mitchell plays Wheatfalls spot.

Assuming Vanterpool isn’t playing, yeah those would be the options. 
 

I have a feeling they’re going to go with Corcoran/Cobb, just a hunch.

Even if they dress Corcoran to start instead of Mitchell....that will leave them with 0 back WRs.

Corcoran dresses normally so you replace his spot with Cobb. Wheatfall. Demski. Sterns. Clercius. Corcoran. Cobb backing up.

Just ******* put Mitchell in. He's a guy the team targeted in FA, you don't jerk around with things like this. Play the dude and if he sucks you can always cut him.

[Goalie]

3 starting Canadian receivers plus 3 on OL plus Brady = 7. Kramdi makes it 8. No need for Jake.

He signed well before Free agency. As did J Jones.

Why don't you go kick Mos dog while you're at it lol

We've started 10-11 canadians here in the past, could well happen again. 

[Goalie]

What if. Hear me out. But what if. Oshea is telling the truth and his coordinators decide who plays. Do you think oshea told younger to play person more last game? Or is that a younger decision. So if that’s a younger decision, so is playing a guy like Jake. If O’Shea lying then he must have said to play person more. I mean what is it exactly. Good = younger. Bad = O’Shea?

The buck stops with the head coach ultimately. If his coordinators are pushing for subpar roster usage coach needs to set it right.

Peyton Logan is going on 11 weeks of not practicing.  Are they going to have the amputate the leg or what?

Lofton is my guess but I have no idea if he is actually close to having the rust off. 
 

Other option would be to shove Wallace out to RT. We’ve done that with Neuf in the past, but given his play this year and struggles to start last I would not do that. 
 Eli in, Wallace over or Lofton in is probable the extent of it. And neither option is pretty. 

depth...or lack there of rearing its face

Osh decides the roster...coords need to work with it....as well as what Osh dictates in the game...double whammy of ineptness ...and your right...either way...it's piss poor coaching no matter how we spin it

correct....but we lauded it as a major score....big piece....etc...etc

So the backup Corcoran is supposed to know how to play all receiver positions, yet a guy we signed can only play one?

Even while writing this post it seems ridiculous.

and Corcoran isn't gonna be the guy to be a reason you win a game...or give any wow factor in doing it....not a difference maker...and really I bet Cobb would give as much or more....plus he can return if need be....Corcoran has done alright for what's been asked of him....but if he is the best guy to be one your starting 5...boy we in a world of dogshit

Why not move Wheatfall inside for a game and give Mitchell his shot. Wheatfall has done nothing in the 3 losses anyways. If it dont work then cur our losses and next man up. You cant just keep hanging on to a high profile signing, got to be able to admit when you are wrong .

Looks like he got that ball rolling last week. The dl usage changed fairly significantly after two bad performances.

I don’t think it’s as clear cut as that. 
 Partly because we have created a strong echo chamber with forced indoctrination. Fit in or **** off, any one who doesn’t fit doesn’t get any job here or doesn’t stay. Wether some one like Jy thinks Jake gives us a better chance to win or not, I don’t think any one would go against the grain and say other wise. 
 

Also, Jy is both great and not great. Hes a young dc still. He’s a coverage/secondary specialist. He’s still learning and developing his approach to fronts. 
 

I think Jy/hogan have a lot of control on their rosters, as long as they toe the line. 
 

For Jy, I’d certainly be willing to take the lumps and let him develop. He adjusted mid season last year really well. He’s starting to show the same this year. 
 

Hogan, my hope for is slipping.

Those are two opposite ideas, you don’t have a lot of control if you have to toe the line.

@JuranBoldenRules spelled it out pretty well in a post in some other thread. We went from four (and sometimes five) man lines with heavy rotation under Hall to three man fronts with little rotation under Younger. Pretty clear Osh let each of them run the D as they saw fit. It also seems clear that after two poor showings against the Stamps some changes were made. No idea if it was forced or Younger’s idea, but it’s a good sign it happened.

Mitchell and Jones were ruled out at this time last week but not this time around. That gives me hope but we are still for sure dressing Cobb instead
