Posted July 24, 20168 yr comment_210744 Penton - Willy throwing darts, Kyle Knox looks great at MLB... Justin Cole probably starting opposite Westerman...? Bauming - Leggett not practicing, sounds like Bruce Johnson at SAM. This leads to the question... why is Burnett on the roster if he can't sub in when our safety gets hurt or our SAM gets hurt. Especially with a first round pick sitting 3rd on depth chart at WIL. Edited July 24, 20168 yr by Floyd
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210753 Use have a bunch of guys that are just jobbers. Burnett is one. Willy always throws darts in warm up and practise. He is not under serious pressure. Dial up the heat and he melts.
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210754 Kyle Knox arrived with a heck of a resume, but I thought Bass looked comfortable at MLB for the first time against the Stamps. Do we really need a change there? On the other hand, nobody's job is safe now.
July 24, 20168 yr Author comment_210758 Wow. Posey and Harris out 2 weeks, Randle out 3 weeks, Neufeld 6-game... prob end of his career Roberts-Fogg-Loffler-Hawkins-Jones...? If Johnson is at SAM and Leggett actually injured... Just can't see starting Greenwood after two days of practice... If Hawkins doesn't get another shot, why is he on PR

Not looking forward to Thursday's game. We are going to get lit up in the secondary, but if ever there was an underdog story to be written, this is it. Time for Walters to earn his paycheque and get us a usable Canadian O-lineman. Edited July 24, 20168 yr by tracker
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210761 Randle is the biggest loss. Considering we already had a porous secondary before it is even worse now. The dline simply must get through to Rielly. Hall is going to have to have his secondary press cover more .... lol, yeah sorry that was a ridiculous suggestion. He will back them off even further more than likely.
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210774 Randle hurts the most imo. On the OL, it shows that Walters hasn't done much in 3 years.
July 24, 20168 yr Author comment_210776 Looks pretty grim... only think I can think of is starting Corney - who has actually had success getting to the QB... IF Leggett is hurt, I would actually consider Bass-Knox-Wild and then just bring the house for the entire first half Even if he's not hurt, he helps us more at S than SAM. Need to pressure Reilly and hope he doesn't connect with Bowman early.

July 24, 20168 yr comment_210779 Kolhert, Chung, Gossen, Harris, Westerman, Shologan, Loffler makes 7. Derek Jones would make 8.
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210782 Injuries really caught us last game. Any report on what the issue is with Neufeld?? I bet LBI
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210785 All I have left to live for....is hearing how awesome we look in practice. That and the gin.....
July 24, 20168 yr Author comment_210786 I'm not saying start Corney because he's Cdn... I'm saying start him because he's earned it, played with more heart than either of our import DEs so far.
July 24, 20168 yr comment_210787 Neufeld is in a walking boot apparently. Leggett isn't hurt, just taking a day off. Jace Davis is sick, feeling under the weather. Randle is the biggest loss for sure. The rest? I honestly think we might be better off especially with Neufeld hurt on the Oline, means Bond probably gets a start Bryant,Chungh,Goossen,Hardrick,Bond. Couture OL i'm sure. That's probably the best bet, I'd hope so at least. Edited July 24, 20168 yr by Goalie
July 24, 20168 yr Author comment_210789 As Wylie said, he's excited about the 'best crop' of import OL he's seen... we're very close to starting 4 import OL... If Burnett and Hawkins can't crack the starting lineup with all these injuries, they should not be here. I'd seriously look at the ol' Teague Sherman defence... where you just send SAM every play and leave Leggett to cover for him. Anyone think Waggoner has the speed to do that? Roberts-Fogg-Leggett/Loffler-Johnson-Jones Wild-Bass-Waggoner/Leggett To me, that's the least damaging lineup...

July 25, 20168 yr comment_210833 Reading some of the suggested starting lineups in this thread is enough to make an old bastard like me give up on this team. It's simply frightening how pathetic our lineup is.
July 25, 20168 yr comment_210853 I've been on the three import OL bandwagon since camp. Glad to see it finally happen. I'm happy to see a Canadian start at safety. Macho hasn't been terrible, but I'm hoping it stays this way. The rest of the injuries to the secondary suck.

July 25, 20168 yr comment_210858 Now that Neufeld is 6 gamed with another injury can this team move on without him? It's crazy he's still on the roster.
July 25, 20168 yr comment_210862 I sure hope they can start Bryant, Hardrick, Goose, Chungh and Bond, I don't want to see a raw rookie like Couture starting against the likes of Sewell and Willis.
July 25, 20168 yr comment_210867 Why don't coaches start rookie o linemen? Because they are afraid. LaBatte was good enough but the only reason he got to start was because Fat Sheridan got hurt. Why do we keep playing subpar Import o linemen when a non import might prove to be his equal or better?
