Schoen has had some rough luck with injuries for sure ... I would hesitate to call him fragile because he made a ton of fearless but vulnerable catches in heavy traffic last year. Safeties and LBs were teeing up on him. I doubt that anyone would have come through that pounding unscathed.

BOLO again! that's not a touchdown, Farhan.

I wanna see the Ticats in the WSF so bad... BOLO!

what is this weird feeling? I don't think I've ever rooted for BLM before. go Tabbies.

is "The Claw" a real handle for Lawler? or did you just coin basically the perfect nickname right now?

That BC Place scoreboard is like the Green Monster of the CFL.

Gotta call out the real nice block that Lawler made to spring Brady on his TD. Just chipped his man a little bit and turned a 10 yard play into a 30 yard TD. Love to see that kind of game awareness from a star WR .

No harm done, my man. What a game!

oh man the hype machine will be firing on all sixteen cylinders if Ford puts up some numbers in garbage time.

real good move to go tempo there, don't even give 'em a chance to challenge it or make em burn their challenge badly.

holy **** Holm was out in front of Garbutt on that return. Some freakish wheels on that dude, to get from the secondary out in front of a fumble return like that.

Okay, I'm satisfied, let's see Terry Wilson and MCI out there.

yup, guilty. I legit thought they were a team on the rise. I also thought that Collaros was completely done in 2019. I am not good at the future.

89 with a headsup block on that TD!

Wheatfall does not sow!

HAIL LORD KERIC

wow, Rankin carrying Holm on his back for like 5 yards on that replay from last week. Dude has some grind and guts.

Need big lead and then sit down Brady and let Augustine take it home. We are putting a lot of wear and tear on BO20 this year...

whoah Newf got away with a big hold on that Brady run.

for all his dinking and dunking, Ray also knew the value of a guy who could get a step on a corner route. so many rainbow throws of pillowy softness from that guy...

those plays where a DL recovers from their pass rush and gets on their horse to make a downfield tackle ... I hate to give up the yards but man I love to see the giddyup from the DL. I remember that Gavin Walls was especially good at chasing runners down from behind.

For whatever reason BC just couldn't cope with this ... both Rourke and VAJ kept trying to hit those intermediate routes against us despite the fact we had that part of the field locked down with men high and low. Would really expect them to have more of an ability to adjust. Was not impressed with their offensive coaching in our home-at-home.

One thing I wonder about match coverage is that you often see the RB one-on-one with a linebacker. Seems like there's a solid opportunity for checkdowns and screens there ... get a mismatch with an explosive back like Bell or Leake out there against an MLB, maybe an OL sneaks out of the line to block downfield too... spread the receivers to spread out the DBs and create wider lanes downfield -- line up in a 4x1 and run the play to the short side where there are fewer DBs to rally. You're not going to get home runs here, but you'll make first downs...

Lapo shows JY's match coverage in action against the Elks... trading pass rushers for spies and blanket downfield coverage. Our DBs basically have a power play in this scheme.

Wanna throw some love to Castillo for solving the problem of long FG coverage by deadballing his misses off the post. Seriously, those bomb FGs of his are a key part of how we can grind out wins. Love seeing him turn those marginal drives into points. It didn't work last night but it'll work again before the season is thru.
