Quote from: blueandgoldguy on July 27, 2025, 03:01:13 AMGotta hand it to Collaros.  Getting outplayed twice in a row (first time was last year's Grey Cup) by a weak-armed, slow as molasses Nick Arbuckle is mighty impressive!
Yes Collaros was outplayed but he doesn't play Defense Toronto's Offensive game Plans have been better that ours. I am not defending Collaros I see the decline like everyone else but its not all on him

It's called posting updates as I see it. I don't care if it means nothing to you.

Time to bring back Houston and also bring in Holley, both with CFL experience. Why not try and start our third QB cant be any worst.

When is the cut off for vet players to pay them for the whole season?

Schoen was a bust this year dropping easy ones for the money they are paying him. Other than Demski and Wheatfall we have problems

As for the next man up, our OC and DC are not ready for the big show yet, maybe get Jackson more involved in the offence.

Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on July 27, 2025, 04:08:25 AMYAC was non-existent, receivers are either on the ground or out of bounds as soon as they catch the ball.

This is our M.O. this season.  Forget stats that showed we were ok at YAC.  Those were just Demski busting some (he's the best), and Wheatie getting lucky with DB overshoots in the first couple of games.  And maybe Clercius had a couple.

Other than that we are the kings of zero YAC.  Kings of not being open.  Kings of not finding the busted coverage.  Most other teams can do it... (Or their RECs are 6'6 and 260 lbs and can't be tackled)

Quote from: Pigskin on July 27, 2025, 03:53:37 AMA few players can come off the 6 game this week. Case could be gone for the season. Have to get Cam Allen into the lineup. Need some size and speed in the secondary.

CS17  11/18, 148 yards, 1 TD. Demski and Case with bad drops.

Corcoran: 4/4  25 yards, 6.3 avg.
Stern:    4/7  72 yards. 18 Avg.

BO20:    13/82 yards, 6.3 Avg.  2/38, 19 yard Avg.

Jones:    7 DTs, 2 Sacks
Vaval:    6 DTs.
Person:  2 DTs, 1 sack, 1 bad penalty.
Vaughter: 3 DTs, 1 Sack. Did damage playing DT.

JT95:    1 DT, far to slow.

Bombers with 5 Sacks.  But, 7 turnovers.

What JT s too slow?? Really?? I m 66 and could hose him in a foot race!!

Zach will be perfectly fine once we give him a respectable OL.  Remember his 400Y game a few weeks ago when we had our best-non-injured OL in for a brief while?

It's the same reason Cody wasn't too great the other night: EDM OL sucks.  Unless you have a young whippersnapper running QB (Alexander, Rourke, VAJ) you cannot win anything with a bad OL.

I mean, Vanterpool at LT!??!  It's enough to make me laugh.

I would bet large sums of money we get way better once our desired OL is back (if ever).

Quote from: TecnoGenius on July 27, 2025, 03:57:41 AMVanterpool was great at LG.  That's where he should be, and that's our "desired lineup" coming out of TC.  So you don't cut him.  You just don't start him at LT!

However, our options are him or a pylon right now...

Yah I think Vanterpool was seriously winded, could hardly get his hands on edge rushers blowing his doors off. C'mon back Stan, team needs you bad!

Hollins.  Ya, airlift Hollins right now, unless he's unsigned because he's another headcase.  If he's just holding out for big $, then pay him (but no bonus).

Houston, if he played CB (can't remember), also an instant airlift.  Make it so number 1!

We need to spend the extra $400k, and go $99.9k over AT LEAST.  This is the year guys!

No dig on you!   :D  :D   It was a dig on the move by Dinwiddie.  I even upvoted you.  I like reports.  I don't Twatter.

MOS waffled in the post-game on whether Bridges was yanked or hurt.  He passed the buck to Younger, saying it's his choice in these matters.

Pretty obvious Bridges was yanked.  Good for Younger (and MOS if he winked & nodded), as we almost never bench in-game (unless garbage time).

As much as I think we need to airlift guys in—a reciever and a DB , that ain't MOS MO. He ll stick with the guys he has, he's loyal to a fault.

So given that, then I don't care what has been going on with Mitchell, but it's time we see him play or cut him losose. There's no point in paying him to sit, go get someone else.

Ya, but have we ever had a DB this bad thru 6 games in the Dynasty Era?  Even Bonds didn't suck that bad to start '24, and he was pretty bad.  I literally can't recall a guy getting that torched that often in recent times.

Even Bonds is on the bubble!  And he's 5X better than Bridges.

Bonds should be gone as well, no question. Couldn't cover a bet.
