Als About To Drop Willy & Matthews? Manziel Now An Al
From now till maybe a year after the second pick its a good move for the als. But reportedly these are supposed to be deep drafts. And the als could have high picks. Rice is a good player a bit better then neuf imo. But that + a starting but sub elite imp for two top picks is a crazy gamble. But then if it doesnt work out no one in montreal now will be around to clean it up any way.

two first round picks that you would expect to be very high, a canadian starter, for a burned out but young NFL former top pick qb, and two starting ol, one canadian for the als. This is the craziest trade since we sent willy to TO. the als play thursday against edmonton. I cant think that they will toss manziel to the wolves that soon.

When does the bowman experiment end? (Bowman traded to Montreal)
Flanders practiced last week iirc. Would love to see thompkins. And yeah using grant to start an extra NI would be great.

To be fair they did get a starting ol, and the 6th ol from hamilton who played a TON of the snaps as a TE in that double tight form ham loves soo much.

Imo williams would easily start on our team and probably westerman as well. Jeffcoat and ogogpogo are better but not enough to make up the passport.

😲 Sweet merciful crap! sacre bleu!!!!!!! 1 im shocked chris williams is going back to hamilton. 2 I am further shocked that ham didnt get back a back up qb. masoli gets hurt and their season is toast. 3 i am still a lil stunned they traded him with in their division to the team with the most struggles. 4 if manziel doesnt work out the als future is spent. two first rounders??? 5. washington has been a starter and rice their back up ol in hamm. This is a move of desperation by the als. But they still have two very talented wrs, a quickly improved OL and an actual qb. If manziel isnt ready though, the als will be shot for a few years minimum.

woah. I bet this included vernon adams going back to hammer. other wise its a bit silly. I cant see chris williams being one of the guys. Tbh any of their top 3 wrs. Would they give up westerman or henoc?

3 stars +hh argblows
I would put our line as the best in the league. Even with neuf who is the lesser of the group. The continuity on the line goes a long ways. Also having soo many nasty guys helps. The biggest improvement on the line this year is goossen. He has hit a whole other level. Imo four of our starting OL would start on every single team in the league. And neuf would still start on a few teams too. Keep in mind though, that this is his 8th year and he has never come close to starting every single game in the season. he dressed for every game last year but only started iirc 4 or 5. The ladder point on my previous comment probably prevents that. he hasnt been able to stay healthy when he has started, and you have to ask how much of it is playing with continuity and on an other wise elite line. If you put bryant etc on another team they play just as well. Neuf given what weve seen of him in the past even as recently as earlier this year I dont think they are sweating it. Besides jones will fix it. 😝

Id do that in a heart beat. Id be down to kick in a bit to get williams or BJ.

1 Harris. This might be the best stretch of his career. 2 mo. His best game since coming back huge difference maker in coverage. 3 the dl. Both lines played amazing. But the dl killed it in pressure and run stopping. Hh goes to Bryan Bennett for his hit on teams. Not every day a qb lays some one out.

well over all but its really been feast or famine.

How Happy Are You With Paul LaPolice
We have fixed the positional issues on D. We are at a point where chemistry is less and less of an issue (JSK and bighill fed off each other and worked great together from jumpstreet) At this point the only place to point the finger is hall. The D flashes brilliance. But time and time again we see the prevent allow teams to get back into games.

When does the bowman experiment end? (Bowman traded to Montreal)
I dont think he is one of the early options in many plays at all. I think he is used to run off the defender. I feel like we read short to long. Rather then looking for the deep ball then checking down. Unless a team shows no deep cover or no help on adams or dressler etc.

Dave Wheeler fired from 92
eh he has been in trouble with them a few times and in part I feel like citi got him to dig them out of a whole with out the desire to have him or the nature of his shtick. Not personally a fan of his. This. Every week i hear about an athlete who has had some idiotic teen age era social media stuff dug up and is being buried. The opinions he has on the subject isnt some thing that can be discussed openly in media of any sort today. Not saying it should or that i agree with him, but if you hold such a polarizing opinion on such a volatile topic be it a stupid opinion or not you need to be smart enough not to talk about it. As an aside, I hope this one way or another leads to an end of the stale mate that exists in the 90s frequency of radio in manitoba. Its all soo bland and similar its just awful.

hes never been good at catching the ball in general to be fair. You can run him on a crosser over the middle and have some one like woli or adams fade.

ive never heard that doesnt make sense. Hes the ideal type of guy to toss iso fades to in the red zone. 43% hook up route on attempts to him is pretty dismal though.

Battle of Underperformers: Blue vs Double Blue in Doubleheader
it was clearly the call from the line shift and instantly pulling, especially since we had been running it soo much. His play and actions havent been greedy at all thus far so thats a pretty far leap imo.
-
How Happy Are You With Paul LaPolice
I feel like he is the least consistent CO in the league. He will have a brilliant half or game and follow it up by forgetting about harris for an extended period, or a chain of trick plays in a poor position, and ive never liked his red zone play calls. And he never makes good use of DIs. That said as a coach I think he is very good. And he does improve each year. Personally im not married to any of our ast coaches. If we had the option of hiring some one better id jump at it. I dont think we will just stumble into a guy that can replace plop though. Not like hall.
-
Battle of Underperformers: Blue vs Double Blue in Doubleheader
plop has always had a tendency to out smart him self. We should run a lot more play action. And he has to be smarter with his selection of when he gets tricky. Calling qb off tackle out side of field goal range is a great idea rather then up the gut. Inside the 2 its not.

No you do it to keep their rights... You can revoke them from the list at no cost before that if they are ready. if they dont end up being ready it saves you a bit of cap space. As far as i know injured players can go to meetings still...

trade him and stankford to a team in the Chinese league for 7 yen.

When does the bowman experiment end? (Bowman traded to Montreal)
well if a guy isnt going to play for more then a week you may as well 6 game him. Have a chance to save that money from the cap. Plus we always see every kind of silliness with the IR and info about players injuries. Hes week to week we will re evaluate him next week should be back soon x6 then done for the season etc.

Should Walters, Miller And The Board Of Directors Put Pressure On MOS To Fire Hall?
The bombers had the penalties in the second half that kept drives alive for bc though, far more then normal and far more then bc. But which team had them at the end of the game? On the play by play recap bc had no penalties in the second half. In the second half we had 2 drives longer then 4 plays. Bc had 6 drives longer then 4 plays and one less. 26 offensive plays to 43. Of the last 26 plays, we had 5 plays. 1 punt, 1 pick 1 sack, 2 in completions. How about the td play to tie the game? Jsk and sayles both go in with arms and have the wr push through their arms and score the td. 5.15 of the high lights, play it in slow mo then watch ogopogo hunched over and big hill with his hands on his hips. A lot of things factored into our loss. I have no doubt fatigue was part of it. When your defense is on the field for that much of the second half you dont win many games.

Around the League: 2018 Season
Calgary, edm for the top end wrs bc sask and mtl are in similar boats under that. Its a pick em imo. All three wr cores have suffered at the hands of sub par qbing. Id edge bc to the bottom of that stack. Personally, bj Cunningham ernest jackson and chris williams are guys you win with today. Carter, holley and naaman are guys who probably have their best seasons a head of them. Id take darvin adams and dressler this year over two of the top three guys from mtl and sask. The third man is what puts us out of that tier. But our ni depth is what puts us at the top of the third tier of talent. Hammer is right there too. But I think their system inflates the stats and the talent of that core isnt as great as it seems. I wouldnt argue with any one who puts hamilton above us though. willy has been announced as starter again. I guess that means he is healthy ish. I wouldnt throw adams to the wolves behind that OL. Adams with those Wrs and the talent on D could really turn them around. If they had an OL. And if adams pans out.
