your right he ended as our starting centre taking the roll after playing guard most of the year. he lost his spot for 4 games to goosen. And the spot for good.

you should read the post above yours where i say he played mostly at guard.... poor kid.

goosen started 10+ games last year mostly at guard.

Thats the nature of developing NI talent. You virtually never get an immediate game changer unless they come from the nfl. minimally competent? goosen was our starting centre last year. must be new to the cfl.

he wasnt ranked top 5, montreal went off the board for him. And if you will recall our scouts had couture as the best OL on the board. And we all know how that works compared to what the common consensus for drafting. We've frequently taken "our guy" over the highest rated available player.

youve never been positive. Your predictions sticking to vague and negative. elevated due to injuries and under performance wasnt projected to start in tc/ps. he isnt starter quality atm.

a broken clock is right twice a day. once in 3 years is hardly as impressive.

Your comparing the other qbs in garbage pre season time to willy over the course of this last regular season game. Willy started 5/5 and while struggling horribly in the middle of the game, did more then the rest did in the preseason. No one was remotely good enough, even against players no longer in the league to take the starting job. Not to mention we also have the previous play of willy to gauge off of.

What are you using as a tool to compare preseason garbage time? Willy looked good in regular season garbage time its not much of a tool to compare.

Say what? career ster? The guy is raw but has all the tools to start eventually. Canadian rookie defensive players take a while. Wally buono was trying to sign him as an imp. That says more then enough about his talent level. Goosen didnt not start for a number of years. He took the starting role before the halfway point of his 2nd year. Played in all games in his 2nd year. You need to have a clue what your talking about before you call for some ones job man.

I think there was a first round offer on the board I know there was a second. but iirc its a double blind bid. We went corney with our highest pick this year too. I think walters draft strategy is BPA. At least, with the top pics. Im a big waggoner fan and think he and corney will be the future of our NI ratio. Would i rather have st john or even groulx? yeah. I think every one would. Bomber brass included. Im more worried addison richards, and goossens development. Hurl ending up playing too much some how. neufeld staying healthy, and our lack of NI talent behind kohlert. We took a risk, spent a pick and got a talented player who will start eventually. I call that a win.

Unless its a brilliant come back game yes.

Mcduffie showed alot. Even more then in camp. He needs to become more secure with his hands though. Id take him over stoudemire 100 times out of 100.

np i wanna say that last off season or this off season they tweaked it further but i cant find record of that.

If a Team A passer deliberately, and in the official's opinion for the purpose of avoiding loss of yardage, throws the ball behind the line of scrimmage to the ground or Out of Bounds or to an area in which there is not an eligible Team A receiver, the team shall be penalized. PENALTY: LD at point from which pass was thrown. If the pass was thrown from the Goal Area, a safety touch score shall be awarded to Team B, subject to the right of Team B to decline the score and accept the play as it terminated. NOTE: Team A shall not be penalized if the passer throws the ball across the line of scrimmage to an open area or Out of Bounds.

he pulled the ball and looked to run, escaping the tackle box to throw away i want to say would have been possible. However looking at the rules i cant see mention of the tackle box intentional grounding.

pretty much. we are carrying a crazy amount of dbs and lbs. 9 lbers. I dont recall him or any of the rookie nucks shining on teams. Though i did see us get close to blocking 2-3 punts idr who it was or if it was the same person exploding off the edge each time.

Id suggest going back re watching and watching the time clock. Or in other games.

MB was every bit as bad as made out to be. plop was fired here while running struggling offenses twice and his 3rd time around still had significantly better play calling and adjustments. And im not a plop fan. Can buff play OL? thats the real question xD Maybe a curse for firing dave ritchie.

In winnipeg, its allways the qb after a loss. xD

An over load blitz if we dont have an out let on said play yeah. How ever if the pass beat the blitz or a block and release even, can easily go for a td. Harris is a good pass blocker. I dont think we have a good 2nd pass blocker though for the back field.

plop likes to leave backs in to block, and have wrs etc pinch too. Used to do it with blink and sellers a lot. To his credit opposite teams never know if the back will block, block and release, or go for a pass catch. We dont have a mike sellers any more of course. He did similar as HC here too.

not with the time clock limitations after receiving a play call and calling it in the huddle. Have you watched how much time is left by the time they get to the line and in position? how about what time the d moves up to show blitz? even though they dropped to 3 and 4 man rushes frequently they walk up from the normal formation unless rushed in a hurry up.

they would have audibled every other play or more that night and taken 10 time count violations. audibles are few and far between in the cfl. this isnt madden or the us in general.

we went to the hurry up a couple times with good success, but it was mostly late and late in the 2nd qt. Willy doesnt do a good job of running 3 minute drill. but thats coachable.
