To be fair he did throw to Keric. And the best of the rest for rookies has a catch rate like 30% below the adarius bowman line.

Keric got good yardage in his first game but it was only 3 catches and he didn't have one ball thrown to him before he went down in his 2nd game. I don't think Zack looked at anyone other than Demski or Woli in the last game. Strevy at least spread the ball around, even if the passes went incomplete (most of which seemed to be on Strevy).
July 5, 20241 yr comment_707806 Wheatfall must be out longer also so I’m good with another veteran presence on O since the rookies really haven’t stepped up besides the injured one on O. lawler lucky demski Woli. Johnson to me right now ain’t bad. I might start Clerius over Johnson even. Dress Murphy and a us backup who can also return kicks like Kase. Edited July 5, 20241 yr by Goalie

RPO will work if they actually use deception and mix it up...RPO with ZC is pointless 1 hour ago, Colin Unger said: Its pretty frustrating that a deal with Whitehead, if it is in fact complete, took this amount of time to actually come to fruition. He missed a whole additional week of practice. Could be a while before he's in the lineup. We're desperate for wins right now. Another couple of losses and the media is going to start talking about how hard the coaches cap makes it to fire people. was more he needed to get a few thigs in order to cross back over border from what I understand....Dude is in tip top shape and can jump right in 1 hour ago, wbbfan said: If he’s physically got any thing left in the tank, it won’t be a concern imo. He is an elite athlete especially in the speed measurables. 8.05/10 over all and 9.29/10 in the speed measurables. I have no idea what he has left physically though. he will be fine physically....not sure how the narrative of his skills being eroded came about either....and like that matters here..we have 5..6 guys who are way further along in advanced stages of uselessness and they take lion share of reps If anything he will be a target defence's will hve to respect...he knows the league and wherre to go..and where to be to help a team...and for the most part save for a few rookies in due to injury has experience playing with all the offensive weapons

Slowly Zack is turning into Matt Nichols Thankfully the last time Strev came in for an injured shot QB he instantly spread the ball around and guys who were invisible beforehand started to get receptions and opportunities to make plays.

July 5, 20241 yr comment_707815 At the least, Lucky offers equal or greater value to Wilson or Mitchell right?
July 5, 20241 yr comment_707817 16 minutes ago, 17to85 said: Lucky at least has one exceptional skill... dude is fast. Which is the easiest thing to defend if a guy can't run routes. You watch CFL games basically the entire game D are in some version of Cover 3. Hard to out run that. Gotta work intermediate. Lucky was a decent piece for BC in a stacked receiving corps. And even then they kept finding replacements, as we did in 2019. Lucky's most impactful role might be kickoff returner, but you don't want to be doing much of that anyway. He isn't a reliable punt returner.

To date I haven’t seen buck lead any of our qbs to run it well. farhan said it was a none related paperwork issue that slowed progress. I heard his passport expired, if he got it renewed in a couple of weeks, he did well.

I'd like to see Mitchell at receiver before Lawler is back. See if they use him at all tonight. If everyone stays healthy with Lawler back you probably can drop both those guys. Josh Johnson sticks around, Clercius basically becomes Wolitarsky and Wolitarsky becomes Schoen. I can't believe Wilson is still dressing. Think sooner than later we go 3 American OL, as in, I would have made this change already. Edited July 5, 20241 yr by JuranBoldenRules

Not how reads in the offence work. He’s certainly forcing to Demski, for obvious reasons, but our rookies rn are just really underwhelming. zach targeted Wilson for most of his catch attempts, Johnson a bit more from Steve. 52 minutes ago, Brandon said: Slowly Zack is turning into Matt Nichols Thankfully the last time Strev came in for an injured shot QB he instantly spread the ball around and guys who were invisible beforehand started to get receptions and opportunities to make plays.

Wilson’s had ample time to show he can do more than absolutely nothing. I feel about the same of Mitchell as a player to how you do of Wilson I think, but Mitchell had less time at WR, so if they’re going to give one of them another shot I guess.. I think they should have gone 3 American OL after the first Ottawa game. Edited July 5, 20241 yr by JohnnyAbonny
July 5, 20241 yr Author comment_707824 I'm fine with Lucky in terms of a talent... My only issue is his ability to stay healthy. If he's healthy for the rest of the season, we could do WAY worse...

July 6, 20241 yr comment_708475 I think we had a great strategy in this game for this game. They decided to optimize the game plan for victory rather than Chris Streveler's longevity. And it worked. I bet they're certain the Zach is back next week the way they sacrificed Streveler'd body in the first half. This wasnt the time to stretch Steveler and help him to grow as a passer. This was a game we absolutely needed.

July 6, 20241 yr comment_708509 We left this game thinking streveler can't pass? Most of his uncompleted passes were throw aways. Dude played a good game, as did Brady. Thr rest... meh at best.

You’re bang on Colin, the coaches led Streveler to slaughter because one of our keys to team success is definitely murdering our backup QB when we are awaiting the return of our starter.
