Wondering if Oliveira can sub in to the Demski spot for some of those sweep plays.... That could be interesting. 

Oliveira doesn't have the speed for the jet sweep stuff. He's a one cut runner not a guy whose gonna get the edge. Harris could though. Faking the sweep to Harris would open up the gaps for Brady and put Harris into a play action pass catching position.  Brady isn't bad catching out of the back field but isn't a big threat currently.

A big deficit for this team so far is kicking.  Medlock was a weapon, now we're just hoping our kicking doesn't kill us. 

To me all the import receivers other than Lawler are fighting for their jobs.  Let's see who steps up.  Stewart and Williams are going to get their shot soon and Demski will be back.

I'd like to see all our backs have a role to keep them all fresh and have Harris taking less work.

We've been spoiled by having medlock kick 5 and 6 field goals in a game. Automatic from 55 and very seldom missed. He put up a ton of points for us and had us winning field position battles every week. 

I hope legs can close the gap between crappy toes and medlock a good bit.

PRAISE DE LAWD!!!!!

I remarked to my dad that Crapigna had a really weird kicking motion. I thought it even looked like he slipped on a kick in the last game. I don't know if he was compensating for a nagging injury or if that's how he's always kicked.

I think darby will be good at sam. If hes not I think they might move nichols to sam and darby to hb. I feel like alexander not only knows our D, but is our secondary's leader. Its harder to slot in to S on a new team and scheme thank people think. Nichols is a tackling machine who frequently has been on the edge of the box or motioned to the box by chipping wrs. Either way I think personnel wise our secondary gets a bunch better on sunday. 

I dont think leggs can be worse than crappy. 

Im a bit surprised we are still rostering tobi antigha and as a DE no less. I feel like we would be much better off with an extra DI imp DB. 

Antigha played last game. Not sure his role but saw him coming off the field at one point.

I haven't noticed him at all yet. But he's supposed to be pretty versatile?

I had mentioned something similar to my dad during the 1st TO game. His kicks had very little arc to them.

Interesting. I didn't notice that. I noticed more about how he kind of swung at them from the side.

That's the word.

It could have been special teams against T.O., but unsure. I think I was too disgusted to care.

I noticed a shot of him coming off the field too. I thought it was on a defensive play, but I could be wrong.

He played teams in all 3 games. Haven't seen him get any reps on d.

He played de dt wil Mac and s for the riders. But we haven't done much with him.

We are missing Grant big time....I don't know how long it'll be, till he returns for the returns, but already it's been too long..I know I'm going to be po'd when Nelson secures the ball, takes a look upfield, sees the posse coming and flops on the 25...We need better field position damn it

Apparently this guy is a budding scientist as well as a kicker and would mean that Lirim is not about to show up in Winnipeg.

Idk old logo is kinda strange. Hes a 30 year old kicker with very little pro experience and not good college numbers. played in 3 or 4 games for an IFL team this year. Which dont seem to really kick field goals. They ran out 5 or 6 kickers this year but he was the best of them.

Maybe hes a kick off specialist? Idk. Sergio castillo is a FA and felix menard briere could be had off of BCs PR.
