  1. I don’t think any of us can pretend that. The coaching staff on the other hand…
  2. Agree on that as a statement. Slightly disagree in relation to Haba in particular, a more solid DE could handle more reps. If they’re going to be stubborn and only dress 5/6, that’s where I think Haba is definitely not the answer.
  3. He also comes across as a horses ass on the field FWIW
  4. There’s something to this. Andrew in particular, his whole life has had that intangible. He brings something extra, unquantifiable.
  5. I’m starting to come up with this theory that O’Shea had the time of his life on the 2004 Argos and everything he does roster-wise is a vain attempt to recreate it. He also disappeared for long stretches. My point was more like that he or anyone isn’t going to be the answer if they’re taking more than 50% of the reps in a game at that spot. IMO, Haba would be most effective with 15-20 snaps. He’s not big enough to get pounded by OTs for more than that.
  6. That’s just it. They let bloody Dakota Proukop throw a deep ball in the Grey cup yet there’s nothing for the guy who’s actually proven to be able to complete them? WTAF?
  7. If they feel they have to stand pat for whatever misguided reason, I’d give Wilson a game returning punts over Mitchell again. He’s the one that’s got to go for sure. Ideally they’re both off the roster though.
  8. He’s gotta be hurt. Please tell me they can’t be that stupid not to use him in the exact situation they brought him back for right? We’d be better off with just Brown at this point.
  9. JA can return kickoffs but not punts. The only other proven punt returner we have is Demski, which no way should happen. I’d send both Mitchell and Wilson packing for sure. Bring in Worthy. Even Ronnie Blackmon again, or anyone. At some point someone who doesn’t perform has to lose their job.
  10. Doesn’t help when you draft run blocking maulers and don’t run the ball. Maybe instead of trying to create the next Walby personality, they should have looked at guys that excelled in pass pro in college ball. I wonder if there’s a team MOS hates? Like one that would make him think long and hard about what he’s doing, were they to embarrass us. Calgary maybe?
  11. I didn’t see Dobson get mandhandled, but I saw him lost on a few occasions. Jogging up to the soup at the end of running plays. Standing upright looking around on a couple others.
  12. Actually, in retrospect only, our drafting has been pretty miss last few years. Passed up Nicastro to take Dobson for one example. Took Anthony Bennett in the first round over literally anyone else. There’s been some mistakes Thing is, Kongbo aged too, like all the guys we’re pissed about. We need impact players 26 and under. That’s what’s missing the most.
  13. “The 2011 Lions started 0-5” - Everyone on TSN if we keep losing
  14. “The process is still good. We’ve got a lot of good guys that know how to play the game” ”I don’t think we were going in the wrong direction” busted out “Zach gives us the best chance to win” Condescending to Doug. “There’s a lot that goes into it” “The same process. We’ll show them the real reasons why they won or lost, not what everyone wants to talk about” re: Lord Keric: “There was a lot of chatter on the ‘thing’ about his position” Is “on the thing” MBB?! The only thing I’d blame Walters for is watching our 36 year old QB get outplayed by the 26 year old we developed and let go for nothing.
  15. I thought that Tyson Upshaw showed more in preseason than Haba has since he’s been here. Same with Chauncey Rivers. The club really **** the bed this TC in so many ways.
  16. Was he really though? Couple early pressures, 1 tackle. Drew a holding penalty. It’s not like he had a bunch of sacks or TFL. I guess, like everyone else I think he needs to be part of the rotation. The days of 4 DL playing the whole game are gone.
  17. But we had 2 extra O-linemen to play TE, and 2 fullbacks.
  18. Almost to a man, they played like absolute trash for the better part of 3 quarters. Oline was 2013 or 1997 bad. They almost pulled it off in spite of themselves, then ****** it all up again in the end. They brought in Strev to let him do less than Dan LeFevour. ST just as awful as ever. Mitchell actually the worst CFL returner I’ve seen in ages. Devin Adams was good. Augustine had as good of a game as he can I guess. Demski had one really nice catch. Lord Keric looked like a pro. Ottawas punter got a misconduct penalty, that was funny..
  19. That cut really pissed me off. How many plays did the guy need to make? It turned 37
  20. I’d consider sitting both for Eli and Wallace honestly. I don’t care if Wallace is a rookie, there’s no way he could play worse that Neufeld did tonight.
  21. 1-3 Interior OL. Bring back Aaron Fiacconi Crappy Honker- Myron Mitchell spinning the ball and celebrating after running out of bounds for a 7 yard return.
  22. I’m not convinced Haba is the answer. He’s been underwhelming tbh. Kind of got handed the job in camp.
  23. No way. Everyone’s the best and they always will be.
  24. I’m mad because we should be coming off matching Edmontons 80s record
