  1. I wish we would’ve gone for a ratio breaker like hladik at lber. Allowing us to go full imp on the dl and swap in Lawson for an imp dime/wil. We need a major upgrade at pass rusher for sure. Honestly, I’d try to bring in one or even two and move Willy into a back up rotational role. Teams abuse him soo bad in the run game, and he struggles too much playing for PKDs in higher reps. A Canadian RT would be fantastic. I think Wallace should be starting next year ideally too. Ol we really need to get rid of guys, and bring in some real tackles etc.
  2. There was a long time culture of defense not liking the O, and OL being the most clicky of all. I got cut for doing some thing stupid in junior on O and the DC brought me back mostly to piss off the oc. Practice was reeeaally fun that year. Funny enough I ended up playing ol too for the last 3 weeks and the next year. But he was let go after the year. The split was really bad in that locker room. Couple of the big us programs I visited it wasn’t nearly soo bad, especially party schools. Some teams seam to cultivate the D vs O culture though. Especially hs down south.
  3. I wonder if Suitor will say Our ford has the lead now that the other ford has been benched... again lol. It'll be interesting to see what MBT does. I honestly don't think he matches up vs our D well at all. I can see him performing even worse than ford did, and getting pulled for Ford in the 4th lol.
  4. His reps at 0 are a good part of why we don't get pressure. In the 30, with jake on the nose, our ends are double teamed virtually every snap. In the 40, we get man up more and really only get pressure with woods on. If we had cam lawson healthy and starting, with jake taking limited reps (15 or less on D not including short yardage) adams and woods on the roster and haba off we would see considerable improvement.
  5. Don’t know if you watched what was happening by… All of Thomas’ decent to good reps came as the 3 tech when woods was playing 0/1. Woods played sparingly, and the 30 front Jake on the nose sets are where we got gashed. When you align on the nose, getting back field penetration doesn’t mean you’ve succeeded as strange as that sounds. Because then both A gaps are wide open in the run game. That’s why rankin was gashing us with cut backs. 2 free guards roaming the second level at will. Thomas was able to push around korte, and shove him off to make a nice stop at the line once. But he wasn’t staying in the lane or pushing korte back into the pocket, he was twisting and wrapping around him. Jy had 6 dl dressed, 3 ends 2 ni dts, and we continually sub in an imp db with out using the NA player. He doesn’t have a choice. Tackles are not a success indicator. 20 tackles on 200 snaps isn’t good. How many sacks has the team recorded since june and where does it rank in the league? (Hint it’s last) Adam’s has 14 tackles 4 sacks in 4 less games with a fraction the snaps. Adam’s can also play any position and technique. Jake shouldn’t be off the roster, he should be rotating and used sparingly only as a 3 tech. When hes lined up off the line and it’s a passing play he can’t even run to the ol before the ball is thrown. Seriously.
  6. Bombers add db jordan toles to a futures deal. He’s a bigger cfl db, played S down south, I imagine they project him as a sam. Scored some tds in college, one big kr but not a volume return guy, blocked a couple kicks, not a crazy testing athlete but a two sport star (basketball) hs 4 star guy that was highly recruited. https://morganstatebears.com/sports/football/roster/jordan-toles/8480 https://247sports.com/player/jordan-toles-46050292/ https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Jordan-Toles-S-LSU
  7. Agree. I mean, back in they day they used to consider scraps in TC a good thing. Even scraps in practice when a team was struggling was shined up. When Bounty gate happened in the NFL lots of guys were open about it being a common practice up here. Belli talked a bunch about it back then, and brown too. The name of the game when it came to pass rushing was QBing Killing. You had coaches teaching players the best ways to hurt a QB and knock them out of the game. The difference now, aside from allegedly trying to try to protect qbs and prone players, is that we see the sideline all the time and have HD replays on a whim. You didn't see nearly as many close ups of the sidelines back in the day, or have such open access to players on social media. The culture of football has softened and become far friendlier, and no place more so than coaching. Dickenson and Maas are the biggest complainers with the poorest sideline conduct in the league right now. And both have been coaching up here a long time.
  8. I agree with all that. Though as we've seen here this year, a winning streak cures all that ails you. And we have enough season left for some one to get hot down the stretch. I worry a bit that we peaked early and will coast into the play offs with a shut it down finish to the regular season again. Best case scenario for us, imo, is for some one else in the west to step up and challenge us all the way to the final week. We don't need to win out, but we can't take our foot off the pedal. We need changes on the Off, but I don't think they'll happen.
  9. Didn't we see scraps on the sidelines involving special teams guys in toronto when Mos was there though? He wasn't the HC, but still your CO generally has a ton of authority over his players. Not to mention Don Matthews teams were the biggest perpetrators when it came to poor behavior, conduct, and dirty play. The early part of the dave ritchie era here was mouthy, brash, and full of questionable sportsmanship too.
  10. The entire passing game is broken. Play call is bad, still running much of the same stuff from plop era, every one knows our tendencies. Zach isn’t getting enough time in a clean pocket. Going into the 4th Q he didn’t have a single pocket that lasted 3.5 seconds. Nearly every thing was out in under 3. Ford had multiple 4+ second pockets, and two insanely long ones. Zach made the token bad give away after a giveaway, but played well enough out side of that. For wrs, lawler isn’t getting the same looks, and schoen was the guy who bailed us out on broken plays. Lawler is struggling as the whole pass game struggles. I’m not concerned about his play. If we fix the issues around him he will come good.
  11. The riders love to create imaginary titles to champion, for obvious reasons. Lmao gold
  12. Not holding my breath. Unless our ol gets miles better over night at the least.
  13. If we played more than a half a game we’d a put up 50
  14. Did you miss the first half? The part where zach was up slow or lawler pulled for concussion?
  15. 1 Brady. The straw that stirs the drink 2 jones/ayers. 10 tackles 1 sack 2 picks 1 ff 3 teams tackles combined 3 Wilson and wheatfall combined for a big 2nd half hh Brady getting his 1st td this year finally and 2nd awe that’s dirty. Bunch of these the hit on lawlers head though block of the game Eli as the fb lead blocking for Brady with a big one crunch of the game guathier filling the gap and crushing brown honourable mention to zach aside from the pick played well.
  16. No the clock started and ran before huddle broke that’s why they added time back to the clock to 141 from 134
  17. Only now mos would complaint about the clock running when we are trying to kill clock bb
  18. Schmek gave him all he could handle too lol
  19. 2nd and 5 and it’s a 20 yard drop back to get away from pressure instead of an instant throw
