Was saying about swarmy. Im thinking it will be rose (not that I’m a fan, but they like him I guess) and parker at the corners and nichols/holm as HBs.

That’s obvious 😂 Im excited to watch swarmy develop. You can tell they’re playing him off the ball as you would with a rookie but his tackling once he’s there is strong. I still think our guys on IR will swoop in and replace him and Houston eventually with rose and Parker however.

NFL likes them a little bigger, should have specified my comparison in saying undersized. I’m from the states.

Agree. Holm had an off second half, kept messing with his wrist it looked like? Rest of the season he’s been fun to watch. If he’s progressed this much since last season, I’m excited to see the rest. I’m a numbers guy so I will say that in terms of size, all of our DBs are undersized - that’s the cfl in general for DBs…. holm 5’11 182, daramy 5’9 176, houston 5’10 173, nichols 5’9 180, Lawrence 6’ 201, Parker 5’8 188, rose 5’11 172, McGhee 5’10 185, Muhammad 5’10 189. That makes him tied for second tallest and third heaviest. Not including safety or dime.

Wake up call maybe

They won’t practice tomorrow so we won’t know until they release lineup. I doubt they would since he didn’t practice at it, I think they’d use Darby despite screwing up

Kramdi on injured list. Wondering what will happen for game. MOS confirmed in interview today that Darby pulled for poor performance and bad eyes.

Signed a DB as well….

Houston’s wife had twins. I bet he’ll miss this one game and then be back this week.

I have concerns with Houston’s consistency considering the preseason games, Lawrence just repeating the same mistakes over and over (he’s gotta be getting roasted in film), and Darby getting pulled this last game brings his position into question (based on his shitty performance I don’t think it’s injury). It will be interesting to see things play out. I do think rose will be back soon since they’ve said he’s running at practice. I still think we have some of the best DBs in the cfl and it’s been exciting to watch.

They haven’t played pigrome a single snap in 2 games. I was saying this yesterday, and now I’d put money on it. edit to say I liked pigrome a lot, but as a coach I am suspicious they aren’t using him for a reason.

Agree to disagree 🤷‍♂️

Going to be honest, I understand that rose was great a few years ago but I just don’t understand the hype anymore. He’s good but I wouldn’t say he’s great.

Their DBs did a great job period. I think it was just an off game for us

Could it be maybe he needs a break to recover from this injury that’s kept him from practice for the last 3 weeks? Lawler will be nice to have in there to get him some rest. Any idea when that will be?

Aussie punter. No barbie for him. Or Grant. But straight to the barbie for failure to tackle by our special teams the whole game. (Edit to add that Hallett looked good on ST speed) Our Nichols and Holm were the only guys in the secondary that looked good. Everyone else was trying to do too much..ba, Darby, Lawrence, abu…yikes I think I named just about everyone else… Aba and Clements looked good again. Have liked their effort. I don’t know enough about Canadian offense to have a strong opinion about why our waggle wasn’t wagglin…but yikes all around on O last night. Always sad to see a QB get tossed like that. I’m a huge Brady fan, wish they’d have ran more, considering passing was a no go. Is that 3 games without using Piggy? Why use our qb2 on short yardage.. it’s like they don’t trust him since his last show

His second was punched out so I wouldn’t call that a gimme pick but I would call it a good PBU. Really thought Darby could have had that one in the end zone. Didn’t have to request the channel at BWW in grand forks, it was ready to go.

Harris was better than expected tonight. Gave some tough balls to defend. Clements was my favorite on D tonight, Demski was my favorite on O. Fun game to watch down in the states. Becoming a Jenarion Grant fan I guess.

Matt cole was cut, Brian cole on roster

Holm has a rugby background, they tackle differently. It’s been effective. They really only look for “blow up guys” in the safetys anymore. He had a phenomenal game. There wasn’t a DB out there that didn’t have a mistake or two, but it’s still damn near lights out. I coached D1 in the US for 10 years.

dude should be cut for that or at least an apology. Think if he’d have broke his back..or hell, paralyzed him. That was just foul. Makes me sick to watch

I remember complaining about a lot of our DBs last season missing tackles and Holm was not on that list

Yep

Yeah ******* technology it took the wrong link. I changed it.
