    Personally I'd like to see the Riders get blown out. Also hoping Edmonton finally wins a home game in two weeks against you guessed it, the Riders.

    Don't buy into that mentality that the Stamps handed us the game. Our DB's dropped as many balls as their receivers. Stamps were lucky to be in that game last time.

    Probably the deepest roster we've dressed this season. Concerns: -Have a better plan to integrate Harrison, McCrae into the offense. Not sure we want Grant to play as many snaps on O as he did last week. I'd guess that one of Harrison or McCrae are the non-DI import back up as we're like locked into 5 Canadians on O and 2 on D. Use these guys. Harrison is one of those big bodied receivers that usually jive well with Collaros who can get the ball out to them. If Demski and Wolitarsky are on the field McCrae is an easy sub. -Briggs back is a big one. We have lots of great Canadian role players on D. This will be crucial with how thin the secondary is....it has been all season. Would not be surprised to see one of Briggs, Gauthier, Maruo out there almost every down. Bighill is going to likely play some "safety" in two high looks when we drop 8-9 out. This is key to beating BLM especially with his reduced mobility...get a bit of pressure to move him off his spot but don't give the routes downfield any space.

    I don't have the numbers but I feel like we have consistently won in Montreal for at least a decade and the only reason we lost last year was because it was a monsoon and we rested a bunch of starters. You're grasping at straws for things to complain about Al...

    I honestly think Harris leaving was way more FIFO related than salary related. Harris admitted himself that we wasnt a very good teammate last year, sulking a lot of the time and keeping to himself. He had a lot going on in his personal life and showed up to camp out of shape that resulted in him missing a lot of the season. I think it rubbed the team the wrong way. His attitude, low "give a s**t" level last season, combined with his age was the main reason he wasnt brought back IMO.

    Doubt anyone will argue that Harris isn't the better player. But the run game here is impacted by other factors as well. Both backs did more the previous season. Harris can enjoy his time in Toronto for all I care. He didn't like being asked to prove his fitness after a year where it let people down so be it.

    That's easier said than done when it's a hometown team, an organization in which he was a leader during his entire tenure, not to mention the highs of coming off back-to-back championship victories where he played a major role in both post-season runs. He was the face off the franchise for over half a decade and all parties involved enjoyed immense success over that period of time. It's a business, sure. But it's not always just business.

    I have completely moved on. I will always be grateful for what he did, and I know that we wouldn't have the last 2 GCs without him. Having said that, he's an Argo....and **** anyone who ain't us. Time for everyone to just move on.
  20. Include an unwillingness to prove it wasn't going to be an issue this year as well. I know one person who works closely with the players. There is definitely more to the story that the public will never know. And MOS handled it as best as he could afaic.
  21. Yeah college safety. Imagine he'll have a lot of utility in a Richie Hall D. I think we'll see a lot of 30 fronts vs BLM with the DL and LB's just cycling through to stay fresh. Let him guess where the pressure is going to come from but drop 8-9 pretty consistently to make sure he's on his mark. Not worried about him doing anything outside the pocket anymore.

    One thing other leagues are doing that the CFL could do to get ahead of things would be to have a league practice roster, basically another team of guys they pay to keep working and training in Canada with professional coaches working for the CFL. I've never understood why the league hasn't really jumped on board with this aside from forcing teams to keep players from Mexico and Europe in house. Would be a great way to develop Canadians, QB's and have a few Americans in other positions here waiting to be signed when teams get a rash of injuries or virus whatever. Also a way to develop coaches!!!

    League needs some quarterbacks. Watching Montreal and Hamilton...they both only run offensive plays out of formations designed to pass the ball but none of the QB's on the field can pass. It's excrutiating to watch. At least in the past if you had a team that built a solid physical run game that could be entertaining, but we have all these teams spreading the field then QB's who can't throw so they just run little dump offs 4 yards at a time.

    I didn't think both teams played as bad as it seemed what people wrote on here. I am puzzled by the Hamilton QB juggle and also why they refused to hand off the rock to Jackson? Forde kept talking about getting the ball into his hands... his first hand off was in the 2nd quarter with only 3 minutes remaining? Super bizarre play calls. Montreal I think will have a terrible time against us, and if for whatever reason Harris gets out of the game then I can't imagine how many INT's Davis will toss. That final play... he had a guy open deep in the end zone and his receiver he was trying to get it towards was also open had he not completely over thrown him by a mile. Just terrible.
