He may have been rusty or out of position, but I didn't see Vanterpool as exceptionally good at LT, and with an aging Big Stan, plus an increasingly brittle Collaros, that has to be a concern.

i’d say he was average for the cfl as a lt. which considering he is a G andy as been a project at T for the nfl and us is not a bad sign. he was really good at G this year. he’s worth developing at T and is definitely the future right now. in a perfect world i’d have rando at lt as he’s much better in pass pro and vanterpool at rt. but they didn’t do as well last year when pushed into battle at those sides. but it was a bad situation and early for both. either that, or wallace maybe kicks out to rt, or manu comes up. wallace also moves well and has seen snaps at C here and could play that despite his size. 

We need to keep looking for imp ol especially tackles, and canadians as always. but we have good options and modularity. i think we can see a fast turn around on the ol when kola/bryant/neuf pack it in.

Even adding woods as a extra dlineman would be beneficial, most teams run with 8 dlinemen, last game both our dline and oline looked gassed

  Also Adams  hasn't been as effective recently, Younger has been utilizing both Smeckle and Thomas instead for run stopping 

adams has been good, but his snaps have dipped hard. the 3 end front, and all the two canadian dls have ravaged his snaps.

One can hope…. Those glasses made him look like a moron.

As opposed to his play calling? Just kidding 😁

Ah, so that's what Hogan looks like. I couldn't tell from the earlier photos wth the cap on backwards and the sunglasses. Perhaps, his play calling will mature along with his attire?

why does it feel like some of these reporters are simply asking questions to confirm their own opinions?

I get the need to ask them but its annoying how they try to put words in the coaches mouth rather than just letting him explain

Hey, I got an "eye roll" from Noeller! Does that mean I've been initiated?

Reporters have their stories written before they even ask. They want quotes, not information.

Like you weren't headed there anyways and have nothing to lose.

There are persistent rumours out of the Big Smoke that Kelly is not responding to treatment and may be done for the year or longer. Or maybe he is just malingering- who knows?

Who knows...

When it comes to Chad Kelly I think it’s more who cares?

Could go straight for Cam Lawson if he's ready

Could...but 3 cdn DT's...is that best use of assets?

They were both on roster together prior to Lawson injury

As opposed to putting on a receiver who won’t play at all or an extra lb who won’t play. Peterson going back on makes sense for Hallett and one of schmek or Thomas off for Lawson. Woods on for prob j jones ideally since Ayers actually does contribute on teams.

Peterson was on last week

[JohnnyAbonny]

I’d go Bailey on for Hallett (see what he can do on teams at least, maybe some reps at end)

Lawson on for Thomas 

Woods on for either Ayers or J. Jones (Ideally Wilson out for a game and give Jones that spot but I know they won’t take Wilson out for anything other than injury)
