Booch

epic fail....and i getting more worried

I okay with Neuf....he is one of the voices and leaders on the team....and was banged up last yr....played well again when finally healthy....Not to beat a dead horse to death but a change at center would bring the play up on the interior....Kolo is a very limited center....but we know limited talent here if an Osh fav gets the play time The silence with other signings, and solidifying coaching is a little concerning tho....there some reason's I can see but prob wont mention here as dont wanna upset the fanboi's with nobody can do no wrong on our current staff I think you will be surprised at a few players who are gonna look around and see what's available....tho not necessarily gonna leave...but may...many here wanna deny it but there is a fair sized group of players..some tenured vets who were not happy how things were managed 2 yrs running now....I also think that the non confirmation on an OC...and the defection of other coaches says a lot....of how some things are ran here...the my way or the suck it up style.....interesting 3 weeks coming up

man....4 yrs ago now is a long time hahaha

taking the knee was a defeatest attitude and sent message to Argo's that they had this game in the bag

shouldnt all the players u roster have never say quit in them..and be tough...athletic...versatile....and if not...why they on roster?...call me crazy but in my coaching tenure/experience, thts how we rolled....yhou eraned a spot in camp....and then had to maintain/keep it in season...be it if you were a rookie...2 yr guy..10 yr guy....nothing was handed to you with zero competition, and if you were not performing at the best compete level....u saw the bench or inactive roster.....or bought a bus ticket... that staff does not inspire me....Good luck Buck I think Jackson is the guy...and best option...he's been around a bit but worked with a lot of people....and like Younger has some innovative ideas He has the knowhow and actual sense to use skill sets to get the best out of players...if he was here last yr he would have utilized Whitehead...Demski and likely MCI to an extent to help open things up elsewhere...I could also have seen Brown stick on roster and become a nice piece.... Musta got it in Dubai

we were out coached plain and simple...and has happened a ton the last 3 yrs...we had the horses to get things done....but the horses need to be coached....trained...made aware of what will/won't work...then re-hash it all, with a plan B for when things are being stiffled...we did none of that and were just content to roll with what worked in the past....and it didnt work...thts a sign of a staff with no answer when it happens repeatedly....or a sign of a stubborn staff who think they the smartest in the room....pick which one you want sure we overhauled a bit....but then refused to use them and played way too many sets with Thomas...wayyyy too many...and an absurdly bizzare amount with him and Schmeck...so may as well went with one lineman and drop 11 back.....bringing in new talent an blood is one thing....uses then is a different beast here...that goes with our LB's too

I never felt that way....was just more of a glossing over of the issues with some wins....but the issues were still there and ready to bite...and chomp chomp is exactly what happened...we were basically a team getting by with 1/3rd of the units (defence) being dominant...the other 2 were middling at best and severely out coached....but we slithered into the playoffs and grey cup...and the status quo was deemed good enough...and it wasn't....that was my take going into the last 3rd of season and play-offs and was pretty accurate...and to be honest it's a good thing we played a team with a brain dead HC leading them in the WF....

expect to hear a Strevie signing shortly into the new yr Gong to camp with ZC...Wilson...Dolo and Grainger with Strevie killing the rehab is all we need...no need to take reps away from any of the mentioned for a guy who will be 4th on depth chart at best....we already know QB 1 is not even gonna be a competition and even if ZC stinks the joint up and has degraded in anyway....Osh will not supplant him to back up....And who cars if he is a 600k back-up....the cost of your QB's is the same regardless of what order you put them in..

Dont have an axe to grind with everything....just the insanely stupid **** we do over and over...if anyone is grinding anything it's you at every post I make that doesnt tickle Oshis's ballsac.....he wasnt allowed one iotta to develop on defense....a rep here and there isnt developing a guy Same with the wasted bigo card space on Thomas basically 3 yrs running now...we could have integrated and developed 3 defensive guys there going into 2025 alredy, and if they werent cutting it...bring in someone who can....not just roll wit guys who are on down swing...have zero upside and offer not much other than name recognition... coming from the other anti me axe grinder not surprising comment......coming from 2 guys who I am 99.657% sure have had have no. experience developing...recruiting....training or placing players outside of pop warner football...but I will give credit where it's due are true fans and will defend defend defend even tho the defence has not much a leg to stand on other than ya but....referring to season s in the rear view he did so many smart and actually astute football things for a Canadian Football rules rookie,...who had never even heard of the game bsially before coming here...imagine where he would have been at by mid-season...back 3rd if he was allowed to play like Nick Anderson in Edmonton...he'd been lights out...already was Same could be said for Woods and even Adams were allowed majority reps...and utilized effectively.....they would not have hit any wall by mid season like many will chime in here....thats how yu break thru those walls and learn to play at a pro level for a full season....christ Thomas would hit a wall every game by second quarter from over use....but out he trotted...drive after drive....stuff like that just keeps your blue chio guys further behind the curve because they dont get to play....ytou learn more in games and live reps than in what today's practices hae become....glorified walk thru's and skellies

The mere fact that Ayers is getting lots of looks, and in limited time showed excellent football skill...I.Q and instincts...plus athleticism out the wazzo....yet wasnt allowed to play and develop all yr like the ROY in Edmonton got to do is further proof that our way has flaws....we stagnate/block guys...favor older player for no apparent reason other than they been here longer.....and or or HC seriously has a talent evaluation issue...we definitely meed to change the way we operate to a certain extent Even with Ford before he left for the NFL....was apparent he had the skills...tools to develop into a great player.....but never got the shot...and that one is a real head scratcher as we know Smugs likes to favor and over load his starting 24 with excessive Canadians

thats what he is making...plus Harris's 400+k?....wtf hahahaha never minf...rad other posts....he will have a new deal wherever he lands

lower Canadian dollar is excellent for my u.s stocks....gains on top of gains

well we went internal with Buck and he had one season with a Cup but that was when more players were in their prime and offensively wasn't really reason we won in 2021....what has he won here after that?...zip.....and taken a lot of heat for it as well....he worked under Lapo.....and now the internal hire guy will have worked under lapo....and buck...and been ensconced in this way we do things now for a while.....which in itself needs to be tweeked....so going internal again....because thats what we do to me seems like the safe move....but not the best one.....flame away

if he puts up numbers even remotely close to what Demski does...it's a killer deal....and in all honesty can see him surpassing Demski numbers if he gets a full yr of games in

but be worth way more

be shocked if they didnt

I had said the yrs prior we should promote him....and he's gonna be one of the better DC's ....and we had to or we would have lost him....so sometimes when you have a fresh new up and comer it makes sense and pays off...his defence was nothing like Ritchies.....so in a sense he was internal but brought in a new mindset and philosophy Other times it's not the right thing and you need to switch lanes a bit....but also just because you don't read about it in the press doesn't mean they haven't talked to others outside an internal guy...I now we have talked to/discussed things with 3 outside the organization

i dont have a positive feeling or vibe from more inside hiring...we need infusion of new ideals...mindsets and blood

100k increase maybe....I think tho that deal is more geared toward what he should do if he stay out of the tub....and at that money for a versatile CDN in the Demski type skill set.....if he plays close to a full season he probably puts up as good or better numbers in my opinion That being said CGY doesn't have many if any big ticket salary guys currently so thats a good price....too bad we dont have Demski in that range

good deal for them....

its an over spend....he's had 1 really good yr....can rush off edge, but even then when he was watched for jumping he disappeared basically....and if he cant get off a block he is useless....and washed away. He will make some backside pursuit plays, but that is when he has come free...and over shot...and isnt engaged to get back in the play....he's a decent rotational guy, and if he is on a dline where 3 other guys are being physical and responsible with gaps and run responsibility...then you can live with the deficiencies...I guess...but has a piss poor attitude...especially when being owned and when he is....his game totally evaporates.....over pay in my opinion for sure....CDN or not

says a lot about our coaching and how we went about things to be honest....I'm sure the "ya but's" will chime in all googoo gaga about reg. season wins....but it mins sqwuat We should have pocketed 5 in a row....sure qe got to 5....but were our own worst enemy in them

I thought we were the creme dela creme and should have A's straight across the board...no?

Baffles me we discarded him https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDh4fJAy4lY/?igsh=NXM2dGZoN3plbGF1 Boy is slaying rehab

we didnt seem to wanna bring him back....he was for good portion of the yr one of our better defensive guys.....weird all around to be honest
