I think for the very short future this will hold true. We have a rare situation where there are more starting QBs, then starting jobs. I dont think it will continue though, once the old guard of starters are gone teams will again over pay for a proven starter for fear of ending up with out one. 1290 is basically jets/nhl network. I miss when they covered more local sports. I feel like the jets brain drain chokes the life out of none hockey sports in the province more and more every year.

He did end up on the PR here for a couple weeks after the one game return stint. I wouldnt be surprised to see him back in camp next year. Great talent, he is easily good enough to be playing in the league.

A lot of people especially on here have maligned 3 of those 4. And continue to talk bad about MBT (who belongs in that list imo) It seems like the actual pay is going to be well below the cfl level (average to average) So I dont see them draining a lot of big name prospects we would other wise gets or cfl starters. (maybe some one like jonathon jennings) Im sure they will stumble on one or 2 guys with a pulse. But they wont stumble into enough QBs to make a whole league work.

Happy he is getting another chance, but it seems like he is going to fall into the same trap again. His down fall is always his in game play call. If he could not micro manage the offense and let an OC run it, I think he'd be a really successful HC. Hes a great person and hes great at coaching players. He could be Mos 2.0 or better if he doesnt do the offensive play call full time. I hope he figures it out and makes it work. Itll be interesting to see who, if any one he takes from us in FA.

When youre qb is hitting 50/50 deep balls with deadly accuracy and your rb is plowing through tacklers yeah skill can out shine play call. If any thing its a hasty generalization of post hoc ergo propter hoc. You think because we won and the team put up 30 points the offense was great. While ignoring all the facts from 2 and outs, to 3 total touchdowns in the last 2 games despite red zone drives some where in the double digits, with double digit turn overs forced, and 11 field goal attempts in those 2 games. (15 field goals, 6 tds, 14 turn overs from the D in the play offs)

Just excuses and using the outcome to justify poorly designed offense. They didnt stop harris all night and we werent running audibles in the red zone. Youre just flip flopping because of the outcome and rose tinted glasses. If the offense did the exact same and we lost youd be hoping on the other bandwagon. You know, the exact same one you were captaining leading up to the game. Zero integrity.

I feel like we are quickly approaching a critical mass with the developmental canadian back ups. But then again, I could see a guy or two retiring in the off season. We see more and more guys retire young to maintain a higher quality of life.

Do you think the red zone play calls were good? How many carries did harris get? Thats defense, and with any more tds we may probably dont make it to a GC. The players played on a whole other level. The D play call was tremendous. The O play call didnt get in the way in the end. Thats not nearly the same thing as being good. Ends dont justify the means, and winning doesnt mean the play call was great.

Designate strevereler as a RB then put him on the field at the same time as collaros and harris. I want to say they used to have a rule against that but I think it was tossed out not sure though. If any thing after the last year, teams will want to carry 3 qbs. You should go back and look at the interview in TC with the riders. It was a small sample size, but this is easily the single biggest mental turn around for a QB ive ever seen in any league or level. Hes gone from DOA to a good pick of teams where he will have a good chance to start.

when we are starting deep in hamilton territory it doesnt matter though does it?

medlock 6 plop 2. Of those drives that scored 4 started deep in Hamilton territory, 1 was a long ball based drive the rest were close to mid field.

Except for the entire secondary especially sayles and rose, and our only Imp tackles and key stone to the Ol, 🙄

Itll be interesting to see if we try to retain as much of the core as possible or re tool.

Not with 8 turn overs and 4 drives starting in enemy territory. The red zone play calling was poor.

Thats the damned truth. At times selling out for hits bit us in the butt, but not nearly as much as it helped bury the cats. It was the most complete and physical performance weve had in years. They left every thing on the field and it showed in the result.

A bunch of fgs from deep in the red zone too. While starting drives at the hamilton 50 twice, 41, and 24 with out getting a td on any of those drives. 6 drives of 4 or fewer plays, and harris shouldve gotten more carries. Not to mention we shouldve included more deep stuff for collaros. It was a solid game call. With a few really good play calls. But over all Id say it was a bit better then par for the course in a lapo offense. At this point I dont think buck would do any worse.

I wouldnt say 7 field goal attempts with many from deep in enemy territory is a great game. The streveler package was used too much and to too little direct effect. We took our own offense out of sync some times keeping him in too long. We had 6 drives of 4 plays or fewer, Failed to score tds starting from the hamilton 50, 50,41, and 24. With medlock thats starting in FG range and ending in FG range. With how well collaros tosses the deep ball and how well our wrs played we shouldve been stretching the field more too. Harris had a monster game, but had 18 carries. If a guys averaging 7 and a half yards a carry / touch, FEED HIM.

Was he actually a track guy? He is certainly that type of athlete, and the prototype of what we look for at Wil. He has tremendous athletic ability and motor. He gets in on the back end of a lot of defensive plays. He had a really impressive run down from behind tackle on some one fast in calgary iirc too. https://www.silverandblackpride.com/2016/5/10/11644816/2016-oakland-raiders-udfa-profile-fresno-state-lb-kyrie-wilson-hopes-elite-athleticism-sets-apart One thing that jumps out about Wilson are his measurables. Amongst linebackers that participated in the combine, Wilson would have ranked 5th in the 40-yard dash, 3rd in the bench press, 1st in the vertical jump, 6th in the broad jump and 3rd in the three-cone drill. Wilson has insane top end speed, banks has killer acceleration/quicks and really good top end speed. Guys with top end speed will make plays that surprise you. My personal favorite of all time is 325lbs OL larry allen for the cowboys running down a Lber from behind.

Yep great down field passer.

I heard it was some thing to do with a rider fan, go figure. Any word on his injury? I was thinking it looked like the scary kinda knee injury.

🤣 Really though, why couldnt they do this on saturday at noon?

He is good, but hes as big a head case as he is a talent. Duron carter esq. If he had Harris' work ethic, heart and physicality he would be a pro-bowler.

I think maas is toast. Finally. I can not see maas' ego taking the hit going down to OC. Would love to see dyce get the promo, very well deserved.

Wish they had it on the weekend.

Its gonna be a teary week.
