It has been a small sample size. I guess I’m just saying the combo of his bad luck regarding his injuries, underwhelming game two and 3(which I believe was out the second half) and the incident at LaRocha is a bit surprising to me. There’s a ton of time for him to turn it around and I hope he does. Even if he doesn’t...the team seems to be well stocked to keep winning without beat.

Comparing him to Bowman at this point unfair. The start to his season thus far(on and of the field) has been a bit surprising. Lucky 7....Unlucky 13?
July 23, 20195 yr comment_410422 I think the Bowman comparison is more so that we brought in a vet receiver who we expected to lead the group of receivers and provide us with a tonne of production.. the end result was things not working out and cutting the player. I don't think anyone is comparing the skill level between the two guys.
July 23, 20195 yr comment_410423 I really don't believe the team is concerned about Matthew's salary right now and the implications it might have on bringing in someone at another position...

I realize arguing over nothing is en vogue here, but homey don't play that. If some people want to insist that outside of the weeks where our QB sets franchise records, a young athletic guy who is basically running a wildcat offence and only using 15% of the playbook is our best option at QB, have at 'er. I'll chuckle and not care. something something fire marshall Bill reference...

As an aside,my phone also autocorrects Matthews to Matthew's and it drives me nuts.

July 23, 20195 yr comment_410434 I just don't quite understand who'd we'd be making room for by cutting Matthews... Plug him in for Walker at the very least then rotate him with Adams and Lawler Or get him in the lineup in place of Warren - Miles has already proven to be more than a serviceable backup BUT it is nice to be talking about how to fit all of our receiver depth onto the roster - don't think I can remember anything like this in the past decade plus

July 23, 20195 yr comment_410445 Just for clarification...Matthews is a health scratch because his replacement(Lawler) is playing well the previous game(s)?

From what the media reports, I've been led to believe that what the coaches are seeing in practice is a big factor as well.....

Maybe they don't think he is 100% healthy and want off the injury carousel. or Maybe he is not as up to speed having missed most of the season? Does that seem plausible?

Lawler replaced Matthews against Toronto as Matthews was injured in the game against Ottawa (injury #2). Lawler had one catch for 38 yard against Toronto. Matthews was then a heath scratch for the second Ottawa game. Tell me what am I missing.

I think the circus catch in the end zone and the fumble where he thought he was down were major influences... Still I'd get Matthews on the roster if he's legit healthy - Game 2 was not a well-called game by Lapo and not Nichol's best performance

Does that seem plausible? Sure and I hope it works. Like I said have his jersey, my grey cup tickets, flight and AirB&B booked. Nothing would make me happier than to see him grab the winning TD.
