  1. Offensive game plan was offensive.... Zach had a terrible game, every throw over what 15 yards was a bad throw.....he had guys underneath but still forced long balls....giving him two bad picks....should have been more...Wilson bailed him out big on his only TD, it was an extremely under throw pass yet again... The Oline couldn't handle Edmonton's D rush all game... And yet again we had Strevelor playing receiver......but it's all good we had an excess of LB's again.....who cares about offensive right...as long as we have enough LB and DB we will be alright.... 3rd and 4 throw a bomb...of course a bad throw to boot....why not....every deep ball to that point didn't work, so situationally another deep shot seems right on par ....40 seconds left in the half, tight game, screw the smart plays......long bomb....straight to a pick with a severely undertaken pass and points to the other team...situational awareness be damned...we are too smart to be make conventional play calls on this offence,..... It's not just this past game...this offence has been terrible save for possibly two anomaly weeks...... Oh well maybe they just need a few more vet days on offence...oh and maybe take another offensive player off I think we could use one more LB ..that will work I'm sure next week I'm sure.......
  2. Oh well.....at least I have enough beer that perhaps if I get blurry vision we will look good.....

  4. Why the @#$& did we throw it 40 yards down the field at that point of the game....I don't mind the shot but terrible timing to try it.....look at the @#$&+$& clock under a minute, damn situational awareness rears it's ugly ugly head again this year.......it so frustrating....
  5. As long as Rourke is in the discussion, media even mentioning anybody else is futile......don't you know Rourke is CDN, kid Canada, record breaking CDN.......Rourke, Rourke, Rourke, Rourke.........ROURKE.............There are no other Canadians worthy...only ROOOOUUUUURRRRKE
  6. Our offence was different yesterday.....no I don't just mean Zach vs. Strev. I mean the blocking schemes the receivers routes, the fact we looked like we played the clock again, snaps drawing the playing clock to almost zero......it was not the personale that made the difference (yes Zach vs. Strev....but I am talking weeks...not just the last two) Either Hogan didn't scheme/call this game or he completely changed what he has been doing
  7. Oh boy.....our offence is terrible....
  8. Our routes are so predictable, all decent DB's are jumping them.....we are not tricking anyone on offence
  9. I agree with most, Strev. Looked bad.....but so did Zach for the most part......I can't fully defend Strev. but our offence has been garbage all year.....including Brady's usage. I really believe the issues are far deeper than Strevelor...far deeper
  10. We need a better D-line.....but offence is just terrible..... It s a pattern all year, this offence is no good, and coming out of the half it is terrible....our turn over ratio is terrible, or route trees are easy to defend, our o-line blocking schemes don't seem to work, no QB has had time and or about to consistently look even decent.... Sorry to those clamouring for a different QB....it won't matter...nothing will change
  11. Honestly with this offence....Collaras, Strev. Wilson, Elegsmarra, flutie, Marino, manning, Brady......would be the same end result ..
  12. And here come the dumb 2nd half penalties.....it's like clockwork
  13. Three headed monster IMO....Strev is not healthy from his knee surgery ....His confidence is shaken ....Our scheme receiver routes and play calls are not fooling any D...and haven't all season Add those up and without Zach's, ability to sandlot something.....our offence....yikes
  14. What the F is our offence....fancy and aggressive to a fault.....now crazy conservative......
  15. I feel he is actually coming on lately.....
  16. I am really starting to come to that conclusion....
  17. I am really thinking we just have poor routes....every QB we play can't seem to find the "easypass"
  18. I tend to agree re; receivers, we don't have a "Lawler", but I don't think they are as bad as it looks......I think we ran pretty thin a couple weeks ago, and we showed it by signing a couple new guys......but I do believe in the right system they could be good. Drop our starting 5 on the Cal. or Sask, offences and I bet they look way different.......
  19. I believe it is not fair to judge Streveler right now, the guy had MAJOR knee surgery...he can't be 100% wears a huge brace, this affects, mental and physical aspects. Will he ever become a great starter, possibly not but please remember the severity of the knee injury he recently suffered... I have been recently hard on Hogan, and I don't have much faith he is "helping" Streveler at all. Finally, as has been pointed out look at the o-line, how many hits has Zach taken this year compared to his years past in the Peg......look at Brady, Logan, Demski, Strev. when the do run rarely do the get holes, the only time it seems they have a good run is when they do it themselves and break tackles, or "juke" a defender or three.......is it all the players, I am sure a portion is, but again I question how much is also on the OC. In short, I don't care if is Zach, Wilson, Streveler, Elegsmaera, I don't think any of them have a great chance with the talent and schemes they have to work with.........sorry but those crying for a new QB, even if you get your wish, it won't solve the offence.......
  20. We are good enough along the lines....full stop, if we had the lines we had in 2019, we are probably easy in first. We have let guys across both lines go for bigger paydays, and haven't drafted strong at either position for a few years.....thus we are now weak across the lines Fix the lines and we get back to winning....look at The Sask and Cal D-lines as an example, they both take over games and no coincidence they are #1 and #2 in the league....
  21. Well....... Hogan still didn't do enough IMO Zach is probably done .....as well as in career No Dline .....at least my beer was cold.....
  22. Pretty good first half.....now the dreaded 3rd quarter...... Please let's win a 3rd quarter......
  23. I am throwing my hat into the ring, that this d-line looks bad.....I get it we need to meet roster requirements......and I get it special teams' coverage is important....... But....the reality is we are razor thin on Canadians, so much so that it is affecting our overall roster talent....we no longer have the luxury of deep Canadian depth, that can play at a high level.....in saying that something has to be "less than ideal" this week, we apparently chose that to be the d-line....it's bold but I firmly stand on the hill of probably not the best way to manipulate the roster.......Do we really need so many LB's......If one Imp. LB comes off, we can roster a better D-line.....A better D-line vs. less support on special teams....Is Vibert good enough to be a 7th O-lineman, is so Vanterpool comes off Vibert goes on, this balances the ratio requirements so Korn can go off and an import D-line can go on.......I am not privy to what goes on behind closed doors, but to me I see either of those moves as being "better" roster management....... Let's hope Korn, plays with a burning fire to prove cutting him was wrong and elevates his game beyond his ceiling this week......but boy I do question the roster this week......
