Probably memories of Lapo’s offence doing nothing to show case his ability when he started in 2019.

His first year he looked terrible. I’m not saying he’s not going to be great. It’s just too early to say.

That pick over the middle was classic Zach. He’s always thrown ones like that. The underthrow pick in the end zone against the Als he had a dlinemen right in his face. have we even seen Brown face pressure yet in his career? I don’t know how you can say this with such confidence based on such a small amount of playing time he’s had. Let’s see how he does over a full season where he certainly will face more pressure that he did against the bombers 4 remaining dlinemen

Really could use him back soon. Really in tough to be down 4 of our top 6 or 7 DLinemen.

That’s true. He’s being paid to be the best. Nobody in the league can do it all by themselves though.

You said yourself that it was pretty much worst case scenario for him right now. Why wouldn’t you expect that to affect good accuracy or ability to make reads? There is no QB in the league capable of casting his team to wins on his own.

Love Smith back. Bye bye Mitchell Don’t really remember Fayad Haba and Fox is rough.

All QBs would struggle with the scenario bolded above. Zach can’t do it all by himself at this stage in his career. He’s always been a QB that will attack and throw some picks. His accuracy was fine against Ottawa. He can still be a winner but needs some support from the rest of the O including some more mixing Strev in

He did. I don’t think they win without him. Dru had it easy with that running game

I wouldn't say I'm optimistic about a turnaround, BUT it is something that could happen.

Only silver lining on this start that I can see is that if there is a time of year to get your ass kicked and flaws exposed this is it. Cups are often won by the team that gets hot late in the year (see 2019, 2022, 2023)

Ideally would have Garbutt, Haba, WJ on rotation and causing havoc

I mean one can kill you.

This game isn’t on Zach. Oline getting him killed. Couple drops didn’t help either

No Lawler, Olivara, Nichols, Haba ,Fox is a lot to over come. The whole interior of the oline looks terrible.

ya it’s 1 hour it’s called.

Agree. Not clear why he is getting defensive reps at all.

Strevy

Alford is still a Rider. worthy would be a good add. Clear that Mitchell is not a returner.

Should have played Castillo in the preseason

Who had Johnny Augustine in the lock of the week?

Oline not doing their part too. Too many guys in ZC’s face. No big running lanes yet either

Ya man that’s my point. Would be foolish to take off an American LB and lose that ability. Especially if there’s an injury

No I think you’re wrong here. Cole is listed as a backup but hopefully will be rotating in like a starter and taking out a Canadian. With everyone healthy Wilson and cole can be in at the same time, either with Gauthier or Kramdhi. If one of the imports gets hurt, and Ayers were off the roster, then you’re stuck playing the Canadians with no American to rotate in.

You were talking about taking off the backup LB to get a DE on. Ayers wouldn’t on the roster.
