Hopefully Zach throws a completion b4 a pick 6 or interception to start the game

I don’t think this is a game roster management will cost us anyway. I expect a thorough ass whooping tomorrow. 

42-14 Bombers.

We have no reason to believe that. Everything we've ever seen is that Osh, Walters and Wade do things in lockstep. Not saying that's still the case but that's the only rea evidence we have.

That's the ideal and maybe the way it all started, but we have no idea how well their relationship is functioning at this point in time. Every marriage starts out strong but not all last, I guess we'll get a good indication of the status of their relationship if Walters reups or decides to move on.

So we're going to spot them 2 TDs before opening the can of whoop ass?

Is this MOS trying to wake up Jefferson in the 4th?

Don't get me wrong I don't see what Jackson brings to the roster at all, but he doesn't make or break a team. The guys paid to be the stars need to be the stars.

That is how I see it too. The stinkers we have put up this year have more to do with our star players laying eggs than our rotational and depth players. Ottawa game, Collaros throw a pick 6 late in the game, and Schoen drops a perfect TD strike and voila Ottawa claws back in and Bighill somehow loses his ability to tackle. Edmonton, Zac plays miserably throws a pick 6 and another interception early to gift wrap 22 early points for the Esks before we come back and cream them. Montreal....two pick 6s and we still cream them after a slow start. The RIders, Zac has 2 yards passing late in the first half after several dropped balls by his receivers. When out stars screw up we tend to see the worst stretches in games and it is most often early. Just need to clean that up a bit.

Returns set up a couple of garbage time scores for the bad guys. 
Other predictions. 

Zach goes 19/25- 310- 4 TDs, no picks. 

Brian Cole has a breakout game. 

Riders try another gimmick play at some point and get stuffed. 
 

At least one of those Dolegala overthrows gets picked this time. 

Dickie the Lesser chews a whole pack of gum at once on camera, cries 3 times.

Because he’s about to become the greatest Canadian player this side of the prolific Dan Clark.

I was a whisker away from doing that last week.

Briggs as well was brutal in the last 2 ottawa drives...whiffs and bad angles....or dline man as well...has zero pursuit left, let alone interior presence and push...will tell you all flat out what that was attributed to...but yu already know, and many feel wasn't a reason we lost...but it was a major one....the schoen drop was a more a reason than the Z pick six as well.....

[Bigblue204]

Yeah I'm not understanding the Haba move...he deserves to be on the roster full stop. Very confusing.

when yur coach falls in love with a guy cause he is a marine with a cool back story....and he eats up a DA spot as well.....then gonna be tough getting any player of impact back on the roster for our defence as they get grinded away game in and game out

I bet if/when Miller is back.....It will be some other Canadian getting punted off the roster to make room for Miler....sadly....a guy who will have earned his place there, and done everything he asked of in game and in practice just to satisfy this fascination with Jackson

No coach I’d rather have than O’Shea, but I’m with Booch … his roster management is horrendous. I’m not concerned with how good we’re doing, I’m concerned with how we could be doing so much better.

So much this.

That doesn't compute... game lost in OT and gifting the opposition a touchdown isn't as big as a dropped pass? 

But look we pay collaros a literal **** ton of money... most in the league... he shouldn't be giving away free points in tight games.

yes....as well as what happened in 2021 and back as well is moot...history....pointless...we shat the bed in Grey cop 2022, and have been still dropping a lot of dueces since then.....mainly....because we became complacent, have basically stood pat, and didn't properly re-load in TC and havn't felt the urgency to re-tool in-season despite some glaring issues

If Schoen made that catch, we would have been up by ..well 7 more, and the game could have got really out of hand for them....those extra 7 points would have made world of difference during the game...basically not enabling them to tie......and have to go into o.t and further lean on a bagged out defense....going into the 4th could have been 32-6....minimum.....thats a more than 3 td cushion.....no reason they should have blown that lead...even witha whipped defence

Yes, our roster management was not an issue last week.

How was it not an issue? The Dline was gassed in the final 3 mins of the 4th and nothing was in the tank for OT.  A solid rotation along the Dline would have done wonders during that last stretch of that game... and I am also going to lump in the ALLCAPS game... 

Those are two prime examples.

[Noeller]

I'm wildly uncomfortable with how many people are expecting a big win. This year's edition of the team terrifies me every single week. Never know who's going to show up.
