Wolly and demski and Schoen are. The rookies aren't doing much.

If Woli is our best offensive weapon, we in trouble and I really like Woli.

To a point. The players didn’t call that blitz though..

Aaaand they certainly didnt execute it either,

It's both 

Schoen went down apparently? I missed that. Doug Brown says it looked real bad. That explains why Streveler was running so many routes.

DT said she he chaplain was leading a prayer around him, players hugging him and all that. Looked like an ankle or foot injury.

Also literally just line up 8 guys on the line and don't disguise at all.  Adams even hesitated and they didn't get home.

All night- he had all the time in the world- MFr gone and finished War and peace back there tonight. AND HE;s Dyslexic!

It’s so telegraphed though, you could have 8 prime Jackson Jeffcoats lined up there and it would be useless if they know it’s coming every single time. 
 

Just having BA on the field is a liability.  Giving him that responsibility on that kind of a play is garbage coaching.

I absolutely detest when I see biggie go up the middle on a blitz, running right at the lineman with no disguise. I know gap coverage or something like that blah blah blah

When you play an aged D this is the fruit it produces.

I could of sworn is was our younger guys not producing. Jefferson being doubled on every down. The young guys with easy assignments needs to be taking advantage of that.

Some things I’ll never forget in life. One of them was a shell shocked Tim Burke being interviewed after whatever preseason game where we were blown out leading to a winless preseason. He shares some pleasantries and basically said we’re good, it’s preseason. I ate it up (knowing it was bullshit)  because I wanted it to be better. Well we know how that went… 

Preseason this year, winless lethargic and nothing to show for it, O’Shea gives me Tim Burke vibes…4 seasons of success tell me to get over my trauma. It’s not like that … is it? Father Time is relentless and I think as a few on this  board have been pointing for the last two years we’ve hung on too long to our veteran talent too long. 
 

here we are…where’s the Joey Elliot highlights? Sigh.

I’m not letting anyone off the hook but your best players have to produce whether being single or doubled covered. That’s what they are compensated for not I’m freeing up space for other players to do their thing.

We'll always have the 2019 domination of Ham and the 2021 fluke game winning INT.....

52-0 against Hamilton in exhibition. I’ll never forget his pregame interview, a very affable “I don’t know, we could get blasted”

Never heard anything like it.

2 seasons of success and 2 more of almost. 

Without several boneheaded coaching decisions, it’s a 4 cup run. 

Nothing can take 2019/21 away from us but the rest of it honestly leaves me a little sour.

This team just not ready to play, early (7-20), yet again.......

My "Living In AB And Flying Home For Games" STH pack has always been as much about seeing family as going to the games, BUT..... I'm not excited about the next games we're coming home for......... 😭

Yeah the starting every game down 10 points plan doesn't work if you want to win.

This team is old, slow and (right now) feels like they have zero chance of making playoffs. In my adult life (I turned 18 in 98, soooooo....) I don't remember being this scared of going 0-18....

Ok, you can NEVER call me negative again!

I'm just saying it FEELS like, compared to the rest of the teams we've seen play this season, we are BY FAR the worst.... Like feels like the LOLks of recent years. Feels like. Maybe somewhat based on how good we HAVE BEEN in recent years...
