blue_gold_84 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 23 of the 27 All-Stars for 2017 are from the West Division. That's mind-boggling... Er, bottling. SPuDS and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Negatron Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Worst pass defence in the league, three all stars in the secondary. Something doesn't add up... SPuDS and blue_gold_84 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something doesn't add up... very true. Not sure where the issue lies.. People want to blame Hall and rightly so but it wasn't like each member didn't take their turns getting beat at times for big plays. I do tend to think its more so a scheme issue then talent issue but I just can't wrap my head around Hall's coaching being this bad all of the sudden.. He has had some very good defenses at times.. even last season we had some game s where our defense, secondary in particular, played very well..

That's the entire point of this current conversation..... hes gotta wear the goat horns for the defense. I don't believe its fully on him though or as to the why he has struggled mightily in getting the yards and time on the field down to manageable levels. I think Hall is a very capable DC. gets a lot out of his guys and can get them to play shutdown football... its the consistency that is the true glaring issue.

His defense has been suspect for two full seasons now. I suspect that it might be as simple as his system just doesn't work as well as it might have in the past. Things change/evolve and maybe he hasn't. Floyd and Tracker 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something doesn't add up... One of the best teams in the league at turning the ball over and sexy stats like ints and highlight reel hits like Loffler lays out grab people's attention.

Yet they won 2 consecutive Grey Cups. They win the biggest game of the year. Thanks to a Stampeders team who just doesn't learn. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
