Hair loss has nothing to do with wearing a hat. I've worn a hat daily for about 35 years (minus the odd day or two) and still have a full head of hair, so does one of my close friends. Genetics is the biggest factor for hair loss. Also to echo earlier sentiments - snapbacks suck. Flexfit is where it's at, especially if you have really thick hair like I do. With Snapbacks I have to keep adjusting the size, depending on when I last got my hair cut. Fitted hats also get affected by hair length/thickness - either too loose, too tight or just right for a brief period of time. Flexfit is the perfect balance for me.

High price tag and $250k guaranteed for next year. They can try to get him to redo his contract but there's not a lot of incentive for him to agree to that so yeah hamstrung is right.

Houston gets burnt (unsurprisingly) but saved by Hollins dropping an easy one.

Just had a Kamau flashback watching that drop from Mitchell. Easy TD if he doesn't blow it.

I can agree with that. The fact none of the other DE's were kept around on the PR speaks to the issues with how the team was put together. I realize we'll never get the answer but I'd love to know the rational behind some of those decisions.

Oh for sure, there's definitely issues with how the roster was assembled and the depth (or lack of it) that we have. I was just point out that Haba wasn't just handed Jeffcoat's starting spot. There's a good chance he would have been the rotational guy had Garbutt not gone down.

It's not just about what kind of yards Mitchell gets, it's also about how he fields the ball and his ball security. His decision-making is hurting the team.

Best option would be Worthy, IMO. He's not Grant but he's a proven returner. Mitchell hasn't even shown a glimmer of hope that he can develop into something.

Go look at the current roster - we don't. I wouldn't put Bonds back there unless I needed to, he's got enough on his plate trying to adjust as a starting rookie DB. Also, we're banged up enough that I'm not sure risking injury to another starter is a great idea (especially with Nichols going down in the last game). We'd end up having to play McGhee again and watch him get burnt repeatedly - no thanks!

I can see Wilson sent packing (or at least the the PR) but not both guys. Josh Johnson can come on for Wilson but who would replace Mitchell on kick returns? We just don't have a suitable replacement available at the moment. If/when Chris Smith is healthy, they can make that change or they can go sign a guy like Worthy... otherwise we're stuck with Mitchell.

Only because Garbutt is hurt. They were both competing for that DE spot until Garbutt got hurt so the job (at least for now) went to Haba.

Yup that's what I meant. Osh and Walters are the first two options for removing deadweight, if they refuse, we get a gofundme going for your service. 😂

If fox and haba are out next week that'll make it even worse. Our dline is one of the few things I have hope for right now.

Don't forget that @Booch is still for hire as a third option!

For as bad as we've looked in the first two games, there are somethings that we have the ability to fix, if the coaching staff chooses to. We've also been hurt by injuries early on so not all is lost yet but changes do need to be made. Maintaining the status quo will not work.

Maybe we'll see some season ending thorax injuries pop up.

Fortunately that can easily be done. Whether or not it happens, is a different story.

Should have kept Milt after camp, he could have re-created the miracle in Edmonton.

Well the drought will continue. Too little too late for the Oilers and we can just about put a bow on this season.

I wouldn't. I don't think Wade would be satisfied with a 1-8 record or something like that going into our first bye week. We have some tough games coming up and unless changes are made (player-wise) things don't look too hopeful.

If the next couple games go this way, how much leash does MOS get?

Absolutely brutal. From the best o-line to whatever the hell this is.

Nice breakup by Ford

The bombers are playing this poorly/ shorthanded and are actually leading... New QB, same ol Ottawa.
