Of the up and comers he passes the initial eye test the best in my pinion...and seems to have everything you want, and some poise....just need the shot That being said for us I would even go the route of open competition in camp at QB with bringing all the guys back. Who performs best...who gives the offence the most versatility and is hardest to scheme for starts Game 1....as we are paying ZC regardless so really does it matter who and how we use the QB stable? if that negates him to the bench as the back-up based on who win's out right.....how can that be a bad thing....plus you know if the QB1 out of camp stumbles you are more than ok with him coming in...and you would think highly motivated. If FIFO is as they say...they all starters....and are here because they give us a chance to win then nobody should have their panties in a twist. I'm 100 percent certain he will be back....and If Buck is gone....even better

I think we gonna be just fine grooming Wilson for future starter...Obviously we are tied to Collaros for next yr...be interesting to see how he performs....and if we are smart we get Wilson into a lot of games with either set packages/reps, and or in any blow-out winning or losing.....sooner than the last 2 mins like we apt to

thats my main issue.....he has shown that he has no ability to do that....I cant recall any normal punt he has attempted that has travelled any significant distance....plus he is so slow at getting it off...I am truly shocked more haven't been blocked

Maybe they should have said we open to offers on either or.....could have gotten themselves a sweet deal...even if they were just B.S'in exactly this...m,ake it seem both can be had....may have gotten them more than they would have expected...and really...they were doing just fine with the Vaj....for less money...and not like he's old

depends on how you want to analyze or grade your team....same with a lot of metrics and why a lot are not used too....especially with defensive stats Fact of the matter.....if kicking from shadow of my goal post I want a punter who can buckle down....and punt the ball past mid field...aka punting your team out of trouble...and out of scoring range....Our guy cant....plain and simple...how may times did we see teams get back ball from us in field goal range ?...too many.....He just not good enough

nobody piunts out of trouble...nobody can kick a ball out of scoring range?...ok.....carry on TEAM NET PUNTING—The formula for team net punting is yards punted minus return yards minus touchbacks on punts times 20 with the total then divided by the number of punts. so if the league avg is 8 yards per return.....and for example team A boots a ball 65 yarDs from the same spot as team B kicks it for 45 yards....each returning team returns it 8....who's better off....riddle me that genius

I'm talking about ability to punt...sorry I meant to say avg return gave up....who cars if u at league avg if u not getting the ball deep...excuse me for not clarifying what I meant.....fact of the matter....he sucks as a guy to punt you put of trouble

yeah net is fine....but when Punter A punts from his 35 and pounds it to the 10....with a net return of say 10 yards to get them to the 20...and Punter B....our guy pounds it to the 25.....that same avg net just lost you 15 yards...that happened....all the time....so the net is irrelevant

Medlock sometimes tho even from the ball snapped from mid fielld...he was hard pressed to get it inside the 20...25....and more times than not if we had the ball at the other teams 50...or slightly beyond...we went field goal.....thats telling right there in my opibion...it's nice to have truct in a guy to most times hit that shot....but in the CFL...thats a gamble everytime to give up 6 the other way....or a huge return pretty much into scoring range

i wish we would have used that DA spot elsewhere....if we can let him punt then possibly we can use the Global sot on a guy who can be used in defensive rotation,

give him all 3 jobs....he can punt more than adequately....Use that Global spot on Punter guy with a defensive piece

Leake here at a 125k price would be invaluable...fills multiple roles (Returner...rb....slot receiver) is just hitting his prime and prob still has upside over what he has already shown....One DA spot on roster filling multiple positions allowing you to get best bag for buck and in effect deepens the rest of roster with ability for more versatility and much more positional coverage if rostered correctly

All things considered...
or maybe he uses his personnel to it's best potential to the team...and success.....we have a damn good dept too.....but we dont use the people brought in to it's best....thats the key

Disnt mean canned this yr....but after next...if an epic failure alng the same lines as last 3....and a yr of questionable decisions and bringing back dead weight....basically not learning from past screw ups...and just continuing...then definitely

All things considered...
well Dinwiddie has been to 2 cups...won both....both times as the big underdog....once with looney toons and a raw sex pest at QB...the other with career nobody Arbuckle.....who's the better coach?...He also as an organization has way less support and significantly less to his disposal in terms of facilities...amenities...etc....

nobody should be safe from criticism and scrutiny....as well as accountability...I can see maybe after 2022....possibly after 2023....not now.....just for the fact it's basically same issues killing us...how long do you put up with that? I sure with anyone of you who work....you continually mess up....with the same mistakes/issues/oversights...would you keep your job.....i highly doubt it

hence....pooching Thomas and his Canadian vet salary would have been the prudent move, as going into camp we already had Schmeck and I sure they new they were taking a DT in drat on rookie deals...as well as Lawson....and a Canadian DT was not a ratio need....and really....is he the future here and a giy you would look to 2025 run as being key?....definitely not.....

why didnt they do the same then with Biggie..BA,...Wilson...3 higher priced guys who also missed significant time too...and were also in decline...Grant wasnt see Biggie...BA...Wilson.....same situ....but they in the "club" Smith looked head and shoulders above them all....plus he would have been a nice piece to the offence Case showed nothing really...just another small framed receiver we didnt need....didnt hit any hole or seam hard....was run of mill

prior grey cupshave shown us teams can win with average at best QB's if you have a sound roster...smart game plan....ability to adjust, and see the issues....in a nutshell....smart coaching

explain last yr then when he was deployed more than Lawson...and dont say Lawson wasnt ready....he was a beast already but as others have said....as extreme depth...5-10 reps a game....be stomacheable.....that being said if it was also ratio dependent....also he was a part of a good defence....but what's his cumulative contribution to it...and where has he stood out.....in a impactful way?....But anyone who can honesty say him taking reps before Woods..Adams...Fox make our defense better truly not watching. ...and is strictly a Osh loyalist as what many of us were saying all yr Osh has a Canadian bias and if not for the ratio would dress as many as he could...even if they are a lesser talent....he does it now....

No...we deserve ansers and justification...and if u deserve a good flogging so be it...player or coach...we also had 11 guys on field for bissett td...why not call a timeout...or did the grand wizard even notice? And as a paying fan of a community owned team...we essentially have ownership and deserve answers G.M yes seems to know...now what about HC
