Some mostly early. He might’ve played the 3rd most reps at S. Chris jones the coaching goat? lol

Barely. Taylor played the majority of snaps at S.

He looks like coaching in the cfl has aged him 20 years already

He’s better at S than sam imo. He played the wil nickle some this year before injury, but that was just before our secondary gelled. You’re right he’s excellent at spying either QBs or rbs. Hes deadly on the blitz as well. He’s good as an inside wall guy in the split field zone D. And he’s good at running side line to side line gang tackling on wide runs and screens. He isn’t huge and great at getting off blocks, and isn’t polished enough in pass cover to straight drop while covering a wr in man from the line. If he gets one of those two down he’s an elite cfl starter and probably gets back to the NFL. Hes great at reading the play and coming down field making plays. That’s the whole reason he was drafted into the nfl.

1, the primary concern is teams play (we got killed again last week and go against the best return team and man In the league tomorrow) and 2 depth. If any thing the team is higher on Cole than any one here, they’ve been grooming him a long time and given him prep and development time at sam and S to fill out depth. Cole got most of his D snaps pre injury this year which wasn’t a lot. Which is probably why you haven’t noticed him. But you not noticing him doesn’t really make him over rated on here. Cole and ayers are the two most talented and athletic lbers we have. Ayers passed Cole during his injury but both are big parts of our future. like I said, if ba can again only play teams it makes no sense to keep him over Cole. Honestly, I’d sit keric start 6 ol with Wallace and bring Cole on. Haba is easily debatable with how many reps the Canadians will get, Taylor is as well. Though I like having Taylor’s big game experience and leadership on. I’d probably take ba off, put Cole on take weitz off put Hubert on.

Yeah. And if ba can only play teams it makes no sense to keep him off when he can back up and sub for sam, wil, nickle, and S while being better on teams. We gotta bring him back in the off season. Some one might be keen to snipe him in free agency.

I think this is very much our path to victory. The big advantage for Toronto last time was their Dl vs our ol. Run 6 ol with Wallace on a lot more and give zach time to pick apart this secondary. Funny thing is, I’d sub out keric mostly too

Is mci nicked? not getting Cole on is the biggest risk imo. Samson on is real interesting as well as carrying 3 ni dts in general. weitz isn’t ready for the ar. It’s not awful but it is odd.

Maybe as a player coach like the goat in his last “playing” year. No way should he see the field or an ar again though. Better not cut some one for him.

Bc lions need a 3rd qb lmao Any chance he goes back to Calgary?

Mulligan is a joke. So is maas getting coty. Other wise it went down right which is more than I expected tbh. Stoked for Brady to get what he should’ve last year.

I look forward to seeing the teams grades from the pa in December that should be really interesting

The value would be getting an idea of the back pages progression stuff that we haven’t shown. In the modern era with cadence and term adjustments weekly it isn’t what it used to be. The Argos will be well prepared for what we’ve done this year. It’ll be up to buck to come up with some thing to keep them off balance. Same thing Scott or no.

Interesting. Must be loving life on the sun shine coast.

Hansen is a beast. 2021 Hansen wasn’t great peak. He’s had some injuries and he’s 31 now. Still a great motor role guy. But not a big difference maker. We had a lot of guys who made big plays in 19 and 21 too.

I don’t think arbuckle can carry a team to a win against our D. He’s had two starts vs us, one bad game one good game. 300 yards 1 td no ints in the good game. But we beat them easily in that game. Grant is the major X factor against us. The Argos dl gave us all we could handle last time. Kelly wasn’t great, Kadeem had one big run. It’s gonna come down to how our ol plays vs their front. Folorian and ceresna whupped us last time. I would seriously consider starting Randolph at guard. Though last time we had the 6 ol with out both fbs. So maybe 7 ol and the 2 fbs makes the difference. Randolph though imo would put us in a great position. If we get Cole back on too that’d be huge. Yeah. I think it comes down to the difference of 1 extra ol on the bench and 1 extra fb, or flipping ratio to have Randolph as well. We might be good enough on the front with Wallace and feltmate. Especially with better adjustments like we saw vs ssk. With Randolph an extra ol body and an extra fb I think we have the advantage.

Hedged your bets, I’ve done that in the past betting against the bombers on the spread. (Never to lose though, just superstitious enough not to be able to do that) I think this is the first time I didn’t miss a week. Thats the real win.

Kramdi is a much better player, Hansen is a different kind of warrior though. Hansen probably would’ve been an upgrade at de or lber much of this year too. Not a great comparison imo. I think ayers to Hansen or Cole is much closer. Though both are imps not globals. I love Hansen and I’m happy for him that he’s still playing. I’d be thrilled if we brought him back in the off season. I hope we kick his ass next week. Tbh I’m more worried about grant. Hes gonna have a big chip on his shoulder and we struggled with Alford who isn’t a fraction as good as grant.

Kola and Dobson each had an ole. But both bounced back reasonably well. Lucky returning was a negative. Shanky hands. Not a lot to pick through though. Even Jake while being a turd in pass pro was reasonable in his gap out side of the bust. Hard to expect more from the players than we got in the west final. That level of production, and execution should win you 99 games out of 100.

Sure. Thing is, he’s one of the highest paid defenders in the league. When you’re making 200k+ a year you need to do better against frankly terrible tackles with a good game plan. I know holding on the offense along with no yards is no longer a penalty in reality. And that’s lead to a ton more clutching and grabbing. But a guy like that still has to fight through.

With his athleticism you for sure hope to hone him into a ball carrier. His floor is an h back super sub teams guy. His ceiling as a skill player is extremely high. We did a lot with Brady (And he did him self as well) with respect to developing as a rb. He might never be Brady 2.0, but I think it’s reasonable for him to be a change of pace back putting up 400-500 rushing and a couple hundred receiving while doing all the other stuff. I think we could see him start to mix in as early as next year.

I think a player has the right to kneel for the anthem. Refusing to stand for a moment of silence in respect of Remembrance Day, Murray Sinclair and Ted Wyman is trash. Even if you don’t know who they are (sure he doesn’t) that’s not a situation to act out.

Schmekel indeed brought it. Blocking on the heavy set too. Guys got tons of heart and motor. Kyrie wasn’t making flashy plays, but he was doing a great job gap cancelling. He and jones worked great together in the run game. Kramdi and holm stepped up in a huge way. Love to see it.

Yeah it’s huge. We will need the same from those 3 next week, and for maybe one more guy to step up and have a big game. You know the Argos will plan to take away as much of lawler as possible.

Most were happy for us in 19, but would’ve preferred Hamilton. What we did in 21 broke them. We’re the Yankees now. If you aren’t a fan, your 2nd favorite team is who ever is playing against the Yankees. Many hate us for knocking out rourkes lions too before his nfl stint.
