Guest Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I really can't understand why some people like snowballing in the first place. IMO there's less disgusting ways to be kinky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrg Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Scheme my pass rush....u can't convince me that Laurent can't push the pocket. I would say that fits any BS scheme. What about one where you are not trying to push the pocket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about one where you are not trying to push the pocket? That's the defensive equivalent of saying "why would we want a centre who snaps the ball?" Unless the tackles are going to run back and cover receivers every down, you need guys to move the line and fill gaps. If Ted Laurent was interested in being a Blue Bomber, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doublezero Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 MOS says rosters will be set by Sunday - 46 man, PR, one game IR and 6 game IR. Do we need National OL and DL help? Possibly players released from other clubs? Could we pick up an International receiver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still don't see Etchevary designing many plays that would involve someone playing the role of nose tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearpants Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Just a thought... I'm assuming Brett Maher will be playing with Ottawa tonight against Montreal... he'll have the unique experience of playing 3 pre-season games... robynjt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Did we kind of draw the short straw in the pre-season? seems weird to me that we basically finished up before some teams even played their first games. Has this ever been the case before in the history of the CFL where you have a team playing their second pre-season game vs a team who is just playing their first? did we ask for this? or was it given to us? What's the story on this, does anybody know why we played 2 games before someteams even played one game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold_Palmer Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I don't mind it. Gives us more rest time and preperation for the first game of the year. Also allowed us to evolute the players in game situations before making our cuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Hard to really assess guys when our second pre-season game is against Calgary's first - we played our starters longer against Calgary's backups... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgarys starters got a significant amount of time, most if not all of the fist half, just like ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgarys starters got a significant amount of time, most if not all of the fist half, just like ours. and we were missing our number 1 receiver in moore, our best canadian receiver in watson, ford didn't play, sears didn't play. It's not like we brought all our starters either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I think it's probably not a bad thing in the big picture. Lets you get a good idea who your team is going to be and you can focus on preparing those players to start the season rather than still having to evaluate a bunch of players.

holoman Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 So out of the expansion draft, the REDBLACKS no longer have, Hage, Glenn, Kohlert, and now Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 True but they were able to trade Glenn and Hage and get some assets back in return. I never understood the James Lee pick, though, that was a weird one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understood the James Lee pick, though, that was a weird one. True, Gott and what became the 4th overall pick in Antoine Pruneau. One could make the case that is an overpayment for 33 year old glenn and a retired marwan hage. On the flip side, one could also say that Marcel Desjardins actually made a good move, possibly the first good move he made as GM of the redblacks, the rest have been sort of head scratchers.

Mike Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 Kenny Stafford tweeting he has made the Alouettes. Stafford, Green, Carter, Richardson (I know he's hurt) ... does that mean Ochocinco didn't make it? Or is London a surprise cut? If they cut Brandon London, I'd go after him.
