That right there is a perfect example of what happens when you don't have a QB... They showed a stat during the LDC on Sunday that showed in the last 10 years i believe, 10 different QB's have started the LDC... or something close to that

What happens if they actually get way better? Why does it always have to be the other side of things, what if they get better?

Thought it was actually a pretty good PC all things considered.. couple things of note is that O'shea basically said It's MB's O and MB's O alone, that's a coach distancing himself from his OC, knowing that OC is probably next in line to go. I also thought he was pretty much right about lots of stuff he said, it can't be easy to fire anyone, let alone a friend from way back when in the day and the people going on about friends hiring friends, that's how the CFL works really... every coach hires guys they are familliar with, Jones basically took the entire argos D staff with him to Edmonton, Austin brought his own guys really with him to Hamilton, it's how it works, I'm not sure why a coach hiring a friend or a guy he is familiar with is so surprising to some people, it's a friggin 9 team league, they are all friends or friends of friends really. It is what it is. Firing a coach, let alone a friend isn't easy, nobody likes to fire people, regardless of what people say.. It's not easy, it's never easy. But that was a good PC really, i thought MOS did answer lots of questions and did give some info as to what changes will be made, it's time people just give up on this friends hiring friends thing and it's time people give up on pretending a coach is going to come out and give out the game plan this week. It's not how it works really.

We need someone to replace Greaves and it sounds like Longo might do that. Bryant,Longo,Picard,Chungh,Neufeld can't be worse than Bryant,Greaves,Picard,Chungh,Neufeld. Losing Jace Daniels tho has really hurt us i think. He was a good tackle and even though Neufeld played well last game, I don't think he's really the answer, not sure he can stay healthy long enough even. Is Longo the only healthy Import oline we have right now outside of Bryant? Scouts need to bring more in.

I will say this about Doug Brown tho, he's been on MOS's case for a long time now, ever since day 1 really so i do kind of sense a bit of a, not sure of the word but... I'm not sure Brown and MOS get along and I'm not sure they ever have... to me, Brown seems to make things personal lots, it's tough to answer his questions cuz regardless of the answer or non answer MOS gets, brown is always right in his mind. Listen, I liked Doug Brown the football player but Doug Brown the semi media type guy, not a big fan of. He comes across as always knowing what's right and with guys like that.. yeah, i'm not sure how i'd feel about answering his questions either. There seems to be a history between MOS and Brown, and i'm not sure it's a good one. Brown really has been on MOS since day 1 so it makes you wonder if theres some sort of grudge or personal history there between the 2. I tend to find myself... liking Doug Brown a lot less every time he speaks because the way he speaks, it just screams I know it all and nobody knows more than i do... Good Football player tho but... at the same time, The more he talks as a member of the semi media, the more i find myself disliking him. He's very condescending and seems to be very full of Doug Brown, he comes across like he is better than everyone else and i find it very hard to take people like that seriously. He's almost trying to hard to be a ****** at times. And i get that he's Doug Brown, and Doug Brown was a great football player and he can do no harm cuz he's Doug Brown but at the same time, like i said, the more he talks, the more i find myself not wanting to listen to him, talks down to people, condescending really... always right.

Well, wasn't at the game so maybe somebody or those who were could help here.... What i saw on tv were a bunch of 5 6 yard outs, were there actually any deep receivers? Or were they all running the same type of pattern and if there were deep receivers? were they open or covered or what???

My thoughts exactly.

Personally i thought the Oline gave Brohm lots of time for the most part last game, guess they fell a part when we needed them the most tho, and that was on the Demski error that we recovered... Didn't give up a sack until that point and 2 players later, we had given up 2... Looked to me like Greaves was the guy that was owned the most on that "drive".

Yeah there was only the one block that lead directly to a TD and that was vs Calgary for sure... cost us the game really in hindsight... But, i guess the whole point is, regardless if it's 3 Punt Return TD's against or 4 total Special teams TD's against us... the rest of the league combined has only given up 4.. and well, we have given up 3 return TD's and one off a blocked punt.. And really, when you look at them, Last game, leading and then Demski returns one for a TD... riders take the momentum really and don't look back Calgary... the blocked TD, we lost by 1 or 2 points, that blocked punt was the difference The Willy got hurt vs Hamilton game and next play, Punt Return TD... kind of snowballed after that didnt it The one vs Toronto, we had the lead, lost by 7 maybe 8, that punt return TD was the difference You eliminate all of those TD's really and you could probably add at least 2 more wins to our total if not 3... Special Teams errors have cost us at least 2 if not 3 games, that's not including missed Fg's or missed converts either.

Maybe Big League Teague at safety or SAM, wasn't terrible there last year. was actually one of the few bright spots on D last season along with Leggett and Randle.

Penton and Bauming i think both tweeted out Leggett at SAM, i like that move and Shell at safety, not sure if i like that one but... what other options are there really Longo in at guard today for Greaves, Greaves has been awful this year, just awful so hopefully Longo takes that job and keeps it. Greaves really sucks and has actually been getting worse. .

Good Riddance to Tracey really, Special teams haven't been good going back to last year even, It's a step in the right direction for sure... Really was hoping for an MB firing tho, it's the O that is the biggest issue really and MB's O has been near the bottom or at the bottom of the league in pretty much all categories since he got here really. Step in the right direction tho, Tracey needed to go, not sure it fixes what ails us exactly but it does put a guy like MB on notice i think, I guess, Let's see what Nichols can do, if he only throws for 185 yards or so, then well, MB is a problem and needs to go... I guess Brohm wasn't awful last game but didn't take any chances, not sure if he was told to not take many chances or if he just didn't take any himself... but regardless, I think MB is next to go and it could very well happen next week if the O still looks like crap with a QB who has actually thrown for TD's in this league. I still think MB is the biggest problem tho. That O is just so predictable and vanilla... 5 6 yard outs and runs up the middle and repeat... very obvious. You watch Hamilton or Calgary or Toronto even, even Ottawa and they run crossing routes, screens, little hitch passes, all sorts of variations of those types of passes, we just run 5 yard outs... it's really easy to defend in my opinion, when is the last time we saw a crossing route really?

So did Heenan but usually it seems that once healed up they get another look.

Only Way to build Canadian talent really... but it's the import talent that is lacking or maybe it's not and on O in particular it's just being used wrong

I hope tomorrow but I doubt it. You'd hear something. Altho who knows but Denmark tweeted out #growth so... lol means nothing but then again..

Out 4-6 weeks... no thanks. I'll take Henoc. Bet Jones gets another shot when healthy.

If Jones actually becomes available I think we might go after him too. Ben Henan too. Where is this myth that you can't have more than a couple players making big money coming from. But I think Jones and heenan are more off season type signings.

I don't think we have to wear them. Bit I think you will see the royal blues instead

Wade did not fire Tim Burke so why would he fire anyone now? I thought that was the first thing he did actually. Or maybe fired Mack.

Nichols moves the ball consistently and we win.

Obviously Morley was cut by O'shea

No to MB as coach in any way. He's the biggest problem right now. You reward MB and that's just. . Wow. Fold the team then

Yeah but if Willy was on, we could squeak out some wins and/or be competitive. Without Willy though, we've been destroyed in just about every game. You missing the point man. The O sucks with or without Willy. Willy just made MB look better.

and because we always run up the middle

O'shea not firing MB is an issue but at the same time keeping and promoting MB to coach is as stupid really. I don't care who the coach is either but if it's MB in any form that's rewarding failure and I'm done with this team then until he's done
