  1. yeah the sacks allowed is a deceiving stat...pressures allowed is more of an indicator. Some of the sacks allowed are a result of Nicholls not trying to force a throw into double/triple coverage or just toss up something when he shouldn't be and risking giving up a pick. It's a result of a smart QB not turning the ball over and taking that sack if he cant just throw it away...and I am o.k with that as we keep possession of the ball. Also we lead the league in rushing yards per game on top of the least pressures allowed, so that tells you where our line is at...top of the league
  2. Actually not really the case....there was some real issues off the flied/behind the scenes which basically forced the Bombers hand in dealing him and saving face for both the organization, and for Roberts himself...was nothing to do with not producing, but played a part in his production not being Charles Robert's good but still better than most in the league
  3. yes..twas me.
  4. Winnipeg has won all their games against teams coming of the bye this year i think...as well as won both of their games after the bye
  5. it would open up so much underneath stuff it would be unreal. Another giy who would really benefit from that would be Denny...unsung hero here on boards a lot of the time but probably our most polished and reliable receiver
  6. Nope....it was the 8 games last year and the first 10 this year to show what 18 game season would be. I guess if you went all games this year and backtracked to 18 the numbers might be even better
  7. Yeah kind of sick about his tire pumping...he got all his picks in basically 2 games, and 4 or 5 of them were complete gifts and not the result of great play, and other than that has been pretty pedestrian and average at best. I'd take a Randle, Heath even an Alexander over him any day
  8. Leggett tho stayed on sidelines in his full gear till the end of game...which doesn't mean much, but if it was something really serious you would think that he would have been at the least out of his pads and having ice on something. So thinking that it may have been not too serious...hopefully anyway
  9. i was just summarizing the last full consecutive 18 games he had played...last years eight and this first 10 to get a general sense of what a full season would have been and not just cherry pick the best 18 games
  10. Interesting to note that after Darvin's first 10 games this year combined with his 8 last year he has put up the numbers of 109 receptions...1356 yards (avg 12.4 yds a catch) and 11 TD'S over the course of a season, not to mention 9 more receptions for 240 yards and 2 TD's over his last 2. Now if those aren't elite receiver numbers to put to bed the notion that he isn't an "elite" receiver then I don't know what is.....not to mention the yac he gets with tough yards and key second down grabs he makes. Very impressive for when at the time his signing was kind of met with a "meh" and " Who dat" kind of impression Man if we could add another burner, or an Alfred Jackson type (last years version) to the mix with what we currently employ on offence with Harris and Flanders...damn look out
  11. With their injuries..short week..on road and Redblack's wanting/needing a win to try and get a home playoff date I see them winning. Their defense isn't chopped liver and I think Saskatchewan crested on their little streak and are now playing back to where they truly are at. If Hamilton hadn't played such a putrid game they would be riding into Ottawa on a 3 game skid right now, and pitch forks back out to can everything and anything over there on Riderfan's They got really lucky that they got Hamilton in transition when they did
  12. yea...he was a good one
  13. They played a bit of a different game. Hill as a pure cover guy was phenomenal.. just had a knack for being in a guys hip pocket and basically running the route for the receiver and stealing the ball. Bolden all around was dominant..big body..great cover skills and the definition of a shut down corner. He would play and line up all over almost with no set position and just shut down a teams number one..where hill was strictly on the corner. Bolden too could really play a physical game and stick a guy..hence why he was called "Stick" in some circles and it wsnt because his tall long body. Another beauty who was total shut down was Roy Bennett
  14. And it's nice to know that going into the off-season basically regardless how the season goes we are going into it set at QB...nor real worries and need to toss big bucks at any QB free agent like about 4 teams will be doing to drive up the price...
  15. I bet he lands in Montreal actually Either Franklin or Reilly are going to be in T.O unless Ray comes back...can't see it, but if he stays injury free the rest of the year he could come back next year even stronger, and he at this point now is the classic game manager style QB with the potential to rip a defense a new one. I bet BC jumps in the Franklin fray as well and if he moves it will be them scooping him from the Rider's and I have a feeling the Rider's are going to be going to camp with what they have now, and that just makes chuckle inside
  16. Yeah if based soley on that makes no sense really
  17. Actually I don't think they have a better defense at all Their line-backing corp to a man isn't better. They have actually given up 1 more point against which isn't an indication of being better, but statistically that makes them not as good. D-Line with Poop in is a wash if you ask me. We take the ball away more...more interceptions and forced fumbles. 3 less sacks, than Scmoes . Our O-line is better..we lead the league in least pressures allowed, and again stats wise isn't our Qb the top rated in the league??? Best kicker as well resides with Winnipeg and arguably the best cover team. Best all around RB as well as lead the league in rushing per game. The Schmoes have us in receivers i would concede that, but after that I think we are better all around. We are 9-3...They 7-5...we play our game, don't turn it over, ball control offence like we are totally capable of I see no reason for not getting a win..and by more than a TD
  18. Maybe it's a move to the way things are going. I do know many teams have already lately and in the past ran potential signings by the league prior to doing it to see if they would/should allow it, and have been re-buffed and they would have been significant names....and I am all for that exclusion because the CFL doesn't want to be perceived as a League which allows any degenerate into it's fold, no questions asked...and thats a good thing It's also not a convenience thing for Hamilton. They as an organization shouldn't have to lose rights to a guy while the League waits to determine if his head is right. As for the guys already in...I'm guessing that they are grandfathered now, but any recurrence and I'd bet they will be outta here immediately. As for that piece of crap Cox...just a shame he is still here at all
  19. he was there...played in pre-season. He ended up cut, but pretty sure he may have injured his knee as well. Other than that...not sure what he up to now
  20. so he signed for 75-80k for this and next...Foster and Knox signings must have had a bigger price tag than a rookie...gave 20k to Holley today as a bonus towards this years cap..have a few higher priced guys even tho Glenn makes chump change as a base...but is prob hitting a lot of his bonus...they must be tight on cap space...if not over...most teams generally try to keep 300-400 as a safety net once season started and rosters finalized for injuries...NFL cuts..etc...you would think they have used that up...christ they sign new guys daily...tho i guess when u dump a pile on 6 game it helps you a bit
  21. Well in defense of that...Sask was a pretty tough line-up to crack with their established top 3 imports, plus ratio issues...and being hurt there put him behind the other guys so was behind the 8 ball there. He would give us more offensive production as a receiver than Lankford would tho
  22. Actually when he started there he was pretty impressive...I was actually shocked when they mentioned that he was a National kid from U of M
  23. actually when i was typing it looked like part of the quote was added to my post.....maybe I'm just losing my mind from too many head to head shots lol nope...i not...the quote is in my post
  24. Air conditioning issues for visitors earlier this year, sewer issues now...apparently tho I hear it was the whole facility...lack of water fountains....no HDTV around in concourse to watch game while not in your seat....this grand palace best in the country has it's own warts emerging. Just wait too, as I guarantee there will be seats galore being replaced as they are cheap cheap cheap... not sure why that quote was added by the way
