Holm didn’t cover 500 square yards on one play…he sucks for sure. If Holm could do his job we wouldn’t even need to dress 5 DBs.

I doubt Walker comes out unless he’s injured at all this season. He’s been pretty solid taking regular reps at 3 spots depending on the package. We don’t really have the Canadian depth behind Lawson even at end to roll with him and Thomas. It’s the downside of having a couple American specialists in Castillo and Grant in terms of overall roster depth. Kelly looks like a guy who can play. Got in at half and field corner last night in the 4th with some injuries.

Agudosi is already out this week. Would be McCrae (who is now injured) and Murphy most likely. Murphy might stay on depending on the situation with the rest of the Canadians. I’m not sure we’ll be dressing 7 OL forever.

15 had a good night on a much easier assignment vs Fajardo who doesn’t have the arm to get the ball out wide in a way that gives the receiver a shot to gain more yards. Might be fine vs Calgary too as Maier doesn’t have much of an arm. Think we’ll want an upgrade vs BC, Sask, Toronto.

So they are average sized DBs

Ref for sure screwed up on the last punt because it was eventually spotted at Montreal’s 12. Also an earlier one came down in bounds and then rolled out so they picked up the flag but TSN was on a Kelsey’s commercial.

It’s the umpire and the head ref watching the line. They missed a real bad chop block on Willie too where the RT was engaged with him and either the fullback or a receiver motioned down and dove at his knees. That’s a major foul and could be a serious injury to someone getting blocked like that. As a crew they seemed to be all over receivers blocking downfield all night. Lots of holds and illegal blocks.

BA got burned watching Fajardo instead of staying on top of the deepest route on the big play. Then the next play he picked him off. Nice to see the D make some plays finally.

Love that we’re trying so hard to strip the ball but how about making the sack?

Austin Mack has looked like a pile of **** in this game.

Not even close to making the catch.

Just can hand over momentum. Run it. Worst case scenario punt it.

Killing them with the run every which way so it’s 2nd and 5…you go empty backfield with no motion into backfield either? What the **** are we thinking?

Straight up chop block with receiver and RT on Willie. No call.

Using the Jet motion pretty consistently to slow down the rush…don’t forget you can still do that on 2nd and long.

Briggs down now. Clements needs to get Fajardo down. He’s getting victimized on scrambles.

If they cared about player safety any delay of a game that hasn’t started would just push the game back to the next day. I get some places you have issues with venue availability. Montreal in July isn’t one of them.

Yeah and Schmekel has no utility on special teams. Be interesting to see if Murphy gets on the field for special teams.

They really gotta add some Canadians to the PR. They aren’t going to be world beaters but guys that can play special teams at least.

Yeah they could throw Lawson out for the first snap as a starter with Jeffcoat as the nationalized guy and then just rotate as usual really. I think if Demski can't play they'll have to roster Murphy. Schmekel would be the other option. Not sure they'd dress 8 OL. Hallett is another guy that can take D reps, he started a bunch last year. I wondered if they might drop Alexander in at SAM. If Kramdi is out it will be a mess because they don't have another Canadian DB/LB type around and healthy.

If Demski and Kramdi can't play it's gonna get ugly. Murphy would have to come on IMO. Not sure why they are avoiding putting him on. Then next option is dress 8th OL or Schmekel.

But they are all in to win for this season and the next two. There’s not really a point in holding a roster spot for a developmental QB that if they pan out will be ready just in time to sign their third contract with another team. If they aren’t willing to play him there’s not much point in keeping him. I mean if someone is willing to stay on PR and put in the time, sure. But Pigrome has a baby and can probably make more working a real job or pursuing arena ball/spring leagues next year. I don’t get all the people shitting on Brown. He’s been a great backup coming in and playing well against actual pros when needed. Can’t get too far ahead of yourself watching a guy tear up a bunch of small conference FCS guys with the odd actual prospect mixed in.

Damian Jackson is the new Kuale/Romby Bryant from the early O'Shea days. Damn the outcome, the guy brings so much to the roster! We only have 3 DB's left and 2 DL, but have you seen our American fullback/long snapper?

Edmonton signed a couple more Canadians that would have made sense here. Fullback and linebacker.

I guess once the stats are ready we can analyze the data.
