I wonder if the Stamps go with Maier or BLM against us on Thursday?

I’d bet Maier so that he can nickel and dime us all night 

We need to prepare for both BO and Maier .....They seem to go with Levi and then when, as expected, he runs out of gas, insert their back-up.....Either way....rush the hell out out of them and put them on their arse.....I think this will be a statement game for us regarding the rest of the way in 22'

Calgary is still running an offense that's 70+ % passing when they don't have a functional QB.

They kept talking about how BLM said they are a running team but they're not. Carey, Mills and Logan have all looked great and they rely on the pass. Also is it me or do both Jordan and Begelton look on the decline?

I'm thinking they will start Mitchell but with a short leash. It would make sense for Riders to acquire him but cut Fajardo ASAP. That would be an upgrade for both teams.

I agree but I don't see Huff helping a western rival unless its a bend over and take it kind of deal.

Cgy should be a running team. They have 3(when all are healthy) legitimate running backs and big WR who in theory can block well. Their qbing and pass protection has been suspect all year.

 

There is absolutely 0 chance CGY trades away Bo to anyone before the end of the year. That's just not going to happen.

With the state of qb'ing in the league he'll get 5 offers if Calgary goes with Maier though.

Toronto, Ottawa, montreal, Hamilton, Edmonton, Sask all make sense at the right price.

Hopefully he ends up over payed in sask...and sucks even more and installs that pissy attitude there...that be icing on the cake haha

Begalton def seems to have lost a step..or some burst...is he injured? I dunno but he seems lacking in something now

If you look at the upside for Calgary, they would shed about $250,000 in salary and probably pick up a draft choice. Its not as if the Riders pose any kind of threat to the Stamps- their problems was way beyond their quarterbacking. With Mitchell, they might beat the Elks out for the crossover, but even that is a long shot.

Strange to say that I think Lawler has earned his money so far this year

Gone into the 'never made it big down south' sulk.....Sure doesn't look like the player of last year AND the guy we were apparently interested in.....Watch him have a big game against us after these comments...LOL LOL...However won't be enough to stop us from taking the two pts.

Lawler has done great. Wasn't sure how he'd do on that madhouse of a team but he is producing in spite of everything.

Schoen is putting up as good or better numbers here right now, I wonder what he will be looking for in FA if he keeps it up til then

If Schoen keeps his pace up, he's southbound after this season.

Lawler tho is benefiting from targets too..has to be factored in...has like 26 more than Schoen and basically same yardage but Schoen found endzone more...and almost double Ellingson...yet Ellingson is right on his arse

From what I understand, he doesn't want to play for anyone else & wants to retire playing his entire career as a Stamp.

Pat Del Monaco is the OC. This isn't Dickenson's offense. But he calls the plays on the sidelines.

Stephen McAdoo was also an O-line coach before he became O.C., pretty unusual career path.

Jones has always let McAdoo call the plays while Dickenson refuses. He wants to call the plays & not Del Monaco. Which is strange. If you design an offense, shouldn't you be allowed to direct it on Game Day or why even bother? Just coach the O Line, then.

Think it's run game coordinator and pass game coordinator which is more and more typical.

I know the distinctions but not in the CFL with just 9 coaches. McAdoo & Del Monaco are listed as the OC's for their respective teams.

I'm saying that's likely how the Stamps have structured their gameplanning between Del Monaco and Dickenson.

I wonder in Del Monaco's case if it's just upping his pay grade to keep him content, no other team is going to offer him an O.C. job..

He is really the only consistent part of their offence though. 

Reminds me of the late 90s Milt Stegall years 

Remember the days before the pandemic when Derel Wajker was the premiere receiver in the CFL? He became a free agent & we had our own private "Have You Seen Derel Lately? Watch" going on here?? Now, nobody cares about Walker anymore. Ah, good times....
