Great plan against a pure pocket passer like TH who seems to enjoy extra steamboats given to him. 

hate to say it again...but said if we lose this one it will be due to coaching and game and roster management...well....first glance tells me we back to old tricks in big games that contribute to the loss

Biggest game of year...Remove Cole...Adamas...Woods....insert Wilson who hasnt played practically all yr and isnt healthy...add Taylor who hasnt played at all....and BA who hasnt played much...wtf man

and why would you tho?....brutal

Woods is still banged up so I get that but taking Adams and Cole out, I do not understand.

Cole especially. Holly crap the guy is just magnetic to the football making plays. If he was Canadian, white and drafted in the sixth round he would be an O’Shea favourite!

well he did fully practice...and Wilson obviously banged up as a GTD ....and well....past playoff games we dressed and played guys who couldn't even run...so.....

[M.O.A.B.]

By the third quarter our DLs and LBs are already gassed and Wilson probably limping already while Riders RBs are getting their yards.

Here's hoping Wilson cant make it and Cole be inserted back.

cant argue that

 

[BomberBall.]

No Cole,  Adams or Woods?  I don’t get it.  As others have said, the offense better put up some points because I can’t see this defense getting it done.  Especially rushing 3, which seems to be a favourite these days.  I just don’t get it… Hopefully I’m wrong.

[Booch]

cant wait to watch the snaps with Thomas/Schmeck and whatever end they put out and Sask just do whatever they want

Sad part is that whatever 4 man front we roll with....for most part Fox has to play with Thomas and or Schmeck.....poor Fox

[Mike]

Just when I thought the roster management was getting better, we go and lay this egg 

didn’t we learn anything from Bighill last year? send Kyrie out to pasture already, what the **** is this

They had Woods (as well as BA & Wilson) listed as questionable so I'm just saying it's not a suprise.  He went out twice in the last game.  Clearly the D-Line is not our focus this game (god knows why - it needs all the help it can get) so I guess they felt it wasn't worth rostering him.

[17to85]

They could have put woods, adams and fox all on the roster and they'd still have give  the lions share of reps to Thomas so really is it THAT big a deal?

Personally I see adams as a more useful piece than Haba 

[M.O.A.B.]

Haba is a sure penalty or two 

[Goalie]

So if we win will people actually say the coaching made the right decision cuz seems like if we win it’s the players and if we lose it’s roster management. Seems kinda sketchy honestly. Less surprised at the reactions from the regulars than I am of the depth chart tho.

yeah true....that being said, we seen guys who were 100 percent hurt and dressed before

No Adams tho makes zero sense....If Osh thinks Thomas and Schmeck are good enough...let alone gonna make any impact he is clearly not as smart as many people give him credit for

Just the fact that you are dressing Taylor....who has played zero games...Wilson who has played a handful of games in the first 3rd of season and clearly isnt 100 percent ready, and BA who has missed a few....in a win or go home game is suicide....vet guy not withstanding...there will be rust....especially recognition rust and game speed reaction lag...takes a bit to get it back....talking from experience...this is NOT the game to let guys work it out....a couple even minor miscues/hiccups can and will be the difference of going to Vancouver or going to get your Hefty bag to pack your **** up....Osh as a player should know this....but he gonna dress his Fav's and vets regardless of if they are the best option...again..Osh gonna Osh....

[Arnold_Palmer]

Bad roster and all I’ll still be there! The place will be rocking. I’m feeling a legacy game from number 8, just get it done boys!! 

[JCon]

Just feed this man.

If Osh wanted to dress guys who havnt played he should have inserted Person...the unknown factor alone would have produced some positive plays

Haba is probably our worst DE on roster now...but he gets the automatic pass as he been here longer than 2 others

if we win will be in spite of it...again...You havn't grasped the fact that the players play but also it's the coaching leading up to the game ..the prep...the guys on roster decided by the coach that win or lose for most part....save for some idiotic stupidity by a player for most part games are won and loss as a whole and dependent on coaching....we did a lot of winning and had luxury of guys on the roster who could overcome and gloss over a lot of the bad decisions...we don't have the roster for that now and that luxury....if we win...and I was very confident up to an hour ago it will be due to the offense going off...that defense on the depth chart scares nobody...Maybe we luck out and Sucky Whiney face Harris shows up...he is due....but if not...we in tough

[17to85]

Cole got dinged a bunch the last while too right? Entirely possible he isn't totally healthy either (he has been on the IR a ton this year with Wilson too). 

I don't see it as that surprising a roster. Haba over Adams sure, and Taylor because reasons... but otherwise nothing shocking.

Cole is not hurt and totally good to go....I can 100 percent guarantee that...Osh just going with his guy

[JohnnyAbonny]

What the **** is that DL? 

[3rdand1.5]

Well......I share the dline concerns....to play devils advocate.....BA has experience and I think is worth the risk over Kelly....

Taylor has been there done that....I have no idea how many snaps he sees, or how game ready he is...but he has seen and been around...maybe his experience will be more benificial....

Wilson....gives me flashbacks of Biggie last GC.....I hope he is healthy...if he is he is a very good player.....but.....

IMO we are game planning a defence that wont feature much pressure on Harris

[JuranBoldenRules]

My biggest concern heading into this one is the receiving corps.  Do we have enough guys who can be reliable and make plays if Sask loads up on the run?  Sask plays a ton of zone so need to be smart and disciplined with that too.  We basically have one backup playmaker who is also our returner and busted the hell up with a significant groin injury.

Wolitarsky himself accounted for 6 first downs in the LDC/Banjo Bowl. 

Oliviera didn't crack 50 yards rushing in any of the 3 games vs Sask this year. 129, 51, 103 were his yards from scrimmage vs Sask.  They aren't going to let him beat them.  This is a game where you need to move the ball through the air.

Gross D-line. Sask is going to dink and dunk and run all over us. Cole has arguably been our best player on D the past few weeks.

Haba has done nothing with the opportunity he has been gifted. He is the Josh Johnson of the DL.
