  1. he was talking about it in the 1290 pregame before the last game. It was the start of the season but pretty much. switched over due to injury.
  2. chris walby was a converted DL. They dont lack for talent. The difference between perennially good teams and bad. The young guys they have are good. Your not wrong about the excuses. I like to see him defend his guys like that. But no matter what we have to take a big step forward this year. And that has to center around a strong OL. If we are getting harris the ball 20+ times a game we are gonna do well. Teams havent respected out run game in a long long time. And being able to establish the run helps the ol out big time. If we dont make the play offs this year i expect very close to a clean sweep front office down. Plop prolly stays and buck with him maybe. Not much else.
  3. I dont think he's ever been billed as elite. Hes got elite potential but no ones grouping him with the best qbs in the league. Hes firmly in the tier below that. Border line guys who could break either way. Replace him with any one else in that tier and we wouldnt be any better.
  4. calgary as in the loaded power house offense running some one elses system? Thats your comparison? MB was made to look great running barrets offense in sask with a ton of star power around him too. And plop in his first year before being fired by this team twice. Danny maccocia looked like the 2nd coming of don mathews with allstars surrounding him. When it came down to it and these guys had to build their system they couldnt do it. Products of a system.

    may well have been. too bad he will allways be a what if guy.
  6. np. yeah a mini series on netflix or some thing even just like the lords of war would be great. The last guardian video nobbel has sets up alot of the movie characters but its like an hr+

    We did, one of tamans reach exceeds his grasp moves. He was among the very last cuts for the vikings. He was offered a spot in NFLe, and there was talk of him being put on the PR. 4.65 40 30 reps of 225, 10' standing long jump, and 35" vert. Though at a regional combine he put up 44 reps of 225 that was with a 4.7 40. for a then 6'2 285lbs guy its insane. He was a once in a generation level athlete. If he had stuck to football or mma he could have been up there with herschel walker and bo jackson. Instead he's more tony mandarich. *we have wr's and rbs in camp who didnt have that good a 40/vert/long jump. And brock had none of the practiced combine skills as was apparent with the fluctuation in his performances at vikings/regional/national combine.
  8. They seem to have tried to tip toe the line between the hard core lore fans and being new to the content friendly. As a lore nerd I'd say they went more to the friendly end, but still not all the way. The way the movie is killing in china we will see more warcraft stuff. More screen time will drastically improve the quality. Its just sooo much back story its crazy to try and tell in one movie. Im telling any one who likes it or goes to see it to watch the lords of war shorts, especially durotan and then check out some of nobbels videos on youtube. If they had done a mini series like lords of war for promotion to break people in it would have been much better.
  9. Love his attitude. And his work ethic. You dont often find a young athlete with his combination of work ethic, athleticism, and strong mental make up. I hope we rotate him at the other end spot and our NI's at S a lot this year. Some amazing young talent on our D.

    to be fair lots of wealthy people dont like the system. Or people at the hospital in severe pain. Can you imagine if we had gotten him and with NI papers to boot back in the day? Crazy. He's been hunting in sask/mb for ages. I think it was his brother was involved with high life hogs for a while he and his family have been around the prairies for ages. Him wearing the maple leaf is like a lot of pro athletes and Olympians who immigrated here as adults. Happy to have em and it says a lot that they were born else where and chose to come here and become canadian. The ottawa card has 1 great fight on it and a bunch of meh but ive been dying waiting for that one fight. 200 is gonna be good its a great summer for ufc.
  11. damn wade miller is in better shape then when he played.
  12. i just thought about it but sergio wasnt cut in this round. Kinda makes me think they are trying to hold him a bit for trade value.
  13. haha i loved seeing him get fired up like that. 1) another year is a huge deal with 2 young starters. They have allready shown to improve with leaps and bound. 2) consistency and familiarity on the OL is massive. Doesnt matter the pieces you have if you change them every couple weeks they never gel and are constantly playing as less then the sum of their parts. 3) bond couture and keeping when healthy is really big for depth. Couture could easily be starting by the half way point. Bond was probably our best OL against mtl. 4) we got banged up last year and another year gives us a chance to be healthier then last year.
  14. Agree with you here. We see him holding back and pretty intense in every other interview. He certainly isnt a rager but he isnt doug berry either.
  15. i suspect i may have.... now...
  16. I thought the first wave of cuts was due today at noon? Am I crazy?
  17. he was, till he bulked up to 240 lbs. No way wild is long snapping unless we suffer injuries call for it.
  18. Yeah. The question is where do we make up the NI? canadian at safety maybe.
  19. A little bit. Though I think our front 7 and none vanilla plays will really help cover that up a bit. Actually im more worried about nacho harris.
  20. lochard, we need a nuck to back up so thats 2. Our long snapper is also a RB and then flanders. Im not at all against a change of pace back. Im not sure flanders really is a change of pace but he certainly would give us another wrinkle on the offense. One we might sorely need. But I wouldnt carry him at the cost of another position like DE,WR, OL etc with a player that would be far more important to our success. Maybe they set it up so it works out we keep him on the active roster and dont lose out. Thatd be great. I do think that if we hold out a week maybe two we can force value for castillo from ottawa or hammy.
  21. We did, but we also had a more cemented KR and didnt have a proven starter at RB. If we choose to try and hide castillo, or keep 2 of the IMP des and rotate at one spot it wont be easy to also keep both rbs. That would leave us with what 4 rbs? We need the extra spots atleast for WR while its still hotly contested, DE, possibly for the OL for bond etc.
  22. How pray tell do you throw a crossing route when not a single one is in any of the plays for either game? Hank would have tossed a ton of picks given the pressure willy faced. Not sure if this is a troll or just out of touch. Hellen keller would have had a better under standing of what happened out there.
  23. Willy aside, I think anderson might have played him self out of a job. Even a PR spot. He looked miserable on his returns while flanders kept on rollin. Im not sure you use a DI spot on flanders but you certainly dont get rid of him. A couple of the rookie wrs have left a pretty hard decision. The DE spot is gonna be a tough choice too. Coaching staff have their work cut out for them.
