Sure aren’t wrong. In general tackling goes a lot with coaching and discipline. We’ve seen a lot of lack in both of those areas this year on d. But even still Willy is def the one who struggles the most in both areas. Though he also makes the most freelance plays.

That’s how he got the oc job. Every one in Regina was like ehhh mehhh nahhh. Then no one else would take it. I could see the same thing happening with their hc search in the off season. 2 fines should be 2 game suspension automatically. 3rd infraction? +4 games minimum.

Accurate. I wish the league tracked pressures and qb hits. Though Willy missed a lot of sacks this year. Imo no one on d in the league was soo good that they out shine the Argos unit. I’d go with their candidate hands down. I’d love to get to see what a 21 bombers vs 23 Argos gc would look like. That’d hands down be the greatest clash of titans In gc history.

One Last Tune-Up Before Playoffs - West Division Champs @ Donkeys: The Week Of Thread
I’m betting they take over after a quarter. They might just want to give brown more of a shot with the ol for a bit. generally pretty happy with the roster for the season finale. Get Brady out quick and stay healthy.

I get that. That’s the case for a lot of older guys. Zach is pretty fiery this year. At the same time if he’d back up Brady at the price of Augustine I’d make that change in a heart beat and work Harris in from the slot in a package too.

I think a team like ott or ham is an excellent fit for him. Gives you two guys to push each other. Other wise I think a team like ssk will value him as a guy who this year ran the offensive of a winning team. Especially for teams that make qb changes. the qb who showed good in some games and not others as a starter on a bad team is seldom highly valued. People look to QBs to change their fortune. I think edm, ott, ham, ssk and mtl will all be in his ear for the odd season. I hope to see maybe a quarter of football with prukop running the option. I hope to see Demski rest and lawler + Bailey get a lot of looks. Hoping that Richmond starts at one t spot with gray at the other Eli at c and Dobson at guard. I’d also like to see gmc get a lot of Carries like 15 or more. fox Habba garbutt and Lawson at dt with Cole and clements at lb. Des and Karamoko at db would be good. Like to see some young imps play s. If Darby is not fr hurt I’d put him in too.

I think they’ll use him in 2 back sets as mostly a wr. I can’t see them bringing him back next year though. I have a small inkling that he isn’t going to want to go out after this year too. Is he actually dinged up or is it the late season load management?

I think a lot of people league wide cooled on his second half. I think the dpoty should be from the east this year. But I think they will vote west. I also think you could have an interesting conversation on the value difference between 7 sacks and 13 pass knock downs and on who was more valuable between Willy and Betts. But honestly both had a good half of a season being invisible.

I think it will certainly be tough for him to beat Kelly, even if he shook hands down. Idk I think they will push through Willy just a hunch though.

Kelly vs Brady will be interesting.

Really happy that Brady got the double nod. He’s a shoe in for moc mop will be interesting. I think Willy will get serious consideration for dpoty as well.

Elks @ West Division Champs: The Game (that no longer matters) Day Thread
Game speed and some fast guys aren’t 40 runners. Some guys are much faster 10/20 or 60/80 runners. 40 yards can fall between gears or some guys hit top speed too late. I find a lot of twitchy quick guys run 4.5 range. A guy like schoen has his speed line up perfectly for the 40. Iirc he’s our fastest wr by a lot in the 40. Have him race grant in a 60/80/100 and grant smokes him. Same in a 10/20. Not digging schoen by any means. He’s perfect for a certain range and incredibly good at playing that range. wasn’t holm mostly a S in college too or am I confused? I think he or Parker would be excellent at s. But it is also great to have guys like that at Sam to chip in with the run game. I really want to see us move on from some vets in the secondary next year. We know they can find turn key dbs in the league and in college. I love some of the vet dbs and what they’ve done for us and the mentality but yeah time to go young.

No place to go but up, eventually. honestly I just want him to stick with tsn. Can we send matty or Jim barker? Or barker and Kate? Dumpster fire is fine. If I was him I wouldn’t stay. When the higher ups make these decisions with out even consulting it’s time to pack it in.

Pro days and ncaa camp numbers are all equally in reliable. Projected numbers can vary a whole lot too. Even in electric timed 40s conditions can have a huge impact. Peterman probably would’ve run a high 4.3 or 4.4 flat at the combine if conditions had been optimal. Imo just by eye test Parker looks like he has a better too speed, he has an elite top gear not many faster in the league and no one notably faster. Holm, is more explosive. He has an electric first step and change of direction ability. Neither has a deficiency in their athleticism. But both are a bit different. Parker is shorter and far more stout. Holm is taller but more slight. That said both play with good strength. The special factor with holm like mos has said is he has excellent footwork. In general he is a smooth football player. Not some track athlete trying to fit in on the field. For Parker similarly despite his athleticism he is a natural football player. He is more of a dynamic play maker. But both have a lot of similarities. And taking names on teams too.

Toronto and ssk always get their tires pumped on mediocre attendance. Add both teams paid attendances this year and you still have less than us.

We def give up a lot underneath on the corners. I think the biggest difference between this year + last and the 19/21 squad is the corners made plays off the cushion back then. Great tackles stopping guys just short, picks, knock downs, or even just big hits making WRs pay a high physical toll to make those catches. We don’t have that any more. WRs haven’t had to pay much for making catches vs us this year. The softness of the secondary isn’t just in cushion any more. Parker and holm are fast but also aggressive. I’d much rather deal with aggressive guys that passive. Passive football is just bad football.

I think we need that impact play at s that ba used to bring. Kate acting like being 6-5 in the west is good lmao. Ldc is what it is, that’s not a season indicator.
