Monster hold by 19 on the TD.

45 yard net into the wind.

Bryant just lost his feet.

Whatever we're in there on 2nd and 10 that leads to Ayers covering McAllister as a corner and two DB's inside the box can be removed from the playbook.

Pass rush gotta get a lot more disciplined. Make this hump work from the pocket.

Wallace a little too easy to trick if the block isn't right in his face. He's out there chasing the end and giving up A and B to a blitz.

Pass pro not overly inspiring.

Perk comes off with a bit of burst there he's still running.

I'd like 2 of those 3 and a guy who can really dominate a game from the X spot to build an offense around. They will be missing that again. The ideal receiving corps for Collaros is a big sturdy X who can be a threat at 3 levels (Lawler, Adams), a big sturdy slot or Z (Fantuz, Wolitarsky), a couple sneaky route running playmaking slots (Schoen, Demski, Tasker, Wilson), a speed/YAC guy (Bailey) and another big body (Ellingson, Bakari Grant). I think we have 2/5 of those things and we're hopeful Nield can make it 3/5. And we need everyone to stay healthy.

Condell has as many 4-14 seasons on his record as +.500 ones. So the experience is there....but the results throughout his career have been mostly unimpressive. He's no guru. IMO our offense being in the top half of the league is going to rely on Oliviera having a 2000 yard all purpose season and that's a tough place to start from. OL should be much improved. But the lack of Canadian depth there to start with is fear inducing too. Are they eventually going to tell Younger he can't have ALL the Americans on the roster? Does Ontaria Wilson have #1 receiver in him? Looks like we have 3 #2's but no one that really strikes that big fear in anyone, all manageable if you're game planning against us. No one who is going to make the big plays no matter what.

TSN's narrative for that game was all about Lawler and the effect he was having on the game. Forgot about the Als.

Buck Pierce called the plays when Mitchell played for us. He was cut in camp last year.

He had one really amazing season as a returner and 2.5 great years as a receiver. It's a pretty low bar if he's in. They better go back through the past 40 years or so and make sure they get everyone else in if Banks is in.

There was only really a Kerwin Bell year...1999. He was toast pretty early in 2000.

We're just missing Darvin Adams and Lawler

You knew Fredricksen and Singer before camp?

Especially when he has to hit a pin head because we have no one who can go get it. That's been the biggest issue along with protection. Why we are leaning into it, I don't know.

I don't mind either of those guys as a piece in our receiving corps. But I anticipate again that lack of a true catch radius type vertical threat impacting us greatly. Our offense has never really functioned without 1-2 of those guys in this era, the style Collaros plays, the ball won't be coming out quick. Nield is a big guy but doesn't have a ton of range, especially as a 3-4 option where the D isn't going to lose track of him. We're going to really have to spring guys wide open for the vertical passing game to take shape when they are all 5'10.

Younger really doesn't want to play any Canadians or rookies on D. And our roster has been built around that for 2 seasons. But that's an offense that would do well to be top 6 in the league IMO. D better start taking the ball away and scoring points or we'll be battling Edmonton for 4th in the West.

I don't think Singer would make a difference, but the depth is ridiculous. Just shows how poor our recent drafts have been and US scouting too. We literally have two guys on the O side of that depth chart that can play special teams. Our backups for all the skill positions are Chris-Ike, Corcoran and Daniels. So like if Tim White blows his achilles in the 1st quarter, those guys are playing the whole game. We use 2 DI's on LB's when we never have more than 4 of them on the field. Like I get that it's nice, but it's a major luxury when you look across at the O and one injury could leave us basically useless for the rest of a game.

It's quite literally embarassing to line up for Game 1 with an offense so thin.

Taking 1-2 potential eligible receivers off the board for defenses many downs is sure to help....strategically. I'm anticipating D Daniels being a dude who mostly stands on the sideline holding his helmet for a long stretch here. 2020's Jade Etienne. Won't even play special teams.

Special teams is still every 6th play in this league. You can't be ignorant enough to just look at a roster and go "hurr durr, so many linebackers." Half of those guys are special teamers. Put fullback beside 3 of their names if it makes you feel better. Having a guy with DL by his name on the roster who stands on the sideline and holds his helmet all game there just in case doesn't help us win anything. We have Gatkuoth to rotate in on the edge. I think it's fair to assume Younger has a plan to use Woodbey at 3 levels of the D. Our D is actually stacked. If people want to worry, worry about receiver and running back. Peterson looked like a stunned junior player in camp in the pre-season games. We're relying a lot on a bunch of Canadians who haven't been consistent or healthy across their careers (Nield, Cobb, Clercius).

Shitload of LB's and DB's though, both nationalities. Maybe Younger finally convinced the brain trust to go 3-3-6 primarily. Griffin/Woodbey as the SHARK.
