Montreal vs Ssk Grey Cup week chat

[Waffler]

"Davis has played with this injury for a few games, he played the
majority of our training camp with it," said Montreal head coach
Jason Maas. "I know he knows how to deal with it but it remains to
be seen how bad it is.

he didn't scramble on
Montreal's seven-play, 36-yard final drive, completing two of three
passes for 28 yards.

"That's a really good question, I couldn't answer that for
you," Alexander said when asked if he could've run on the drive.
"I didn't play the cleanest game ... but I don't have to be
Superman for this team to win.

"When you have that hindrance, then you have to trust the offence
and the offence is built with answers," said Maas, a former CFL
quarterback. "We'd have to come up with a gameplan that plays to
what he's able to do.

"I don't care if the other team knows that or not, it would be
based on us executing. I know he (Alexander) is fully capable of
playing in that pocket and making good decisions and chopping the ball
down to a bunch of guys that I believe can make plays on our
offence."

Nice spoiler thread title!  I'm just starting the 2nd game!    

Then it was incredibly dumb to go on a football forum where they discuss the games, lol.

I'll be at the game. It's the Grep Cup and I have tickets. This is a win, everyone.

It is the absolute worst possible match-up, however. And it looks like the weather is turning for the worse.

Always cheer against Sask, but looks like I'm going to be cheering against Alexander for a long time. I'm just hoping for a fun game.

So, its the 5th Grey Cup in Winnipeg and the Bombers are the only team not to play in any of them.

6 teams have now participated in one game while Calgary and Montreal will have played in 2 of them.

I'll be going, and it boils down to the lesser of both evils, but I'll never EVER cheer for the greenies.

This was the organization's best opportunity to make an appearance in the big game on home field.

But they blew it. What a shame.

Great attitude though it is a stinky match up. I am hoping for nasty weather. The nastier the more entertaining in my view.

I will be cheering for Saskatchewan...was there any doubt. LOL

"Built with answers."   Yeah sure.

What is it with these coaches thinking they need to write the Gettysburg address when they speak to media.

I have no problem understanding what he said or any issue with the wording.  Better than condescending one word answers and assuming everyone is a half wit.

The gameplan will be built understanding that the QB may have limitations...

Why do you say this?  2 good teams playing well, both won hard fought games in the semis, should be a great game from a football perspective.
