sweep the leg

I agree circumstance made our group worse in 2023 & 2024. I’m talking about the plan when building the team. Clearly the plan was to be stacked at rec this year, as we paid our top 4 guys approx 800-900k and relied on guys to step up on the ol. We did this with an immobile qb behind an untested line. Two guys are pushing 40, our young Canadians hadn’t proven anything, and our rt was a journeyman. I’m not a fan of that approach. I was hopeful it would work out, but it was a struggle. If we were going to go cheap on the ol, I wish we brought in more Americans throughout the year to challenge for some of those spots. It’s not like we didn’t have the roster flexibility to use them.

Imo all three guys we used were fairly interchangeable, but I think Kase looked the most natural doing it. It never felt like he was going to break a big one, but I was also never scared he’d cough it up.

He was awesome. Nobody else had a memorable season. Our depth that year was Kelvin McKnight and Charles Nelson.

lol, you ask which year we won with average receivers, then concede 2019 and list a very average receiving corp from 2021. Those two years would be my answer.

Prior years have shown we can win with average receivers and a great ol. Our decision makers decided we should start moving money from ol to wr and it hasn’t worked out. I’m a big believer in building from the line out on both sides of the ball. I really hope we get the best ol money can buy this offseason and ride our run game again.

I remember giving up something stupid like 11 sacks in a game against that cover zero D. Took awhile for teams to figure that out. Just relentless pressure…

Remember how adamant you were that our offense’s early problems were in large part due to O’shea’s decision to not play our starters in preseason? Now you’re saying two years away from BC’s system should have no effect on Rourke?

With the playbook his current team uses.

To be fair, I think Kelly has been practicing. Rourke only had three practices.

He’s been good. Not sure why so many in here don’t seem to like him.

🤦‍♂️

They’re really letting the Ottawa holding go. Jake Thomas might be pregnant after that play.

I really don’t think a lack of interest/effort was the issue. I think he had accepted that he couldn’t beat a double team, so was sitting back trying to bat down balls.

That was a weird looking play. I need to see it again, but I don’t think Demski fully extended his arms.
