HOWEVER, if Dru isn't winning, let's look at why. Oline? Playcalling?  Why not try Perkins? I actually like him (More than Elgersma..sorry).  Maybe give him a few plays and try him out.  Can't hurt...we already lose games we should win.

Totally agree. Just ask Matt. A few more hits will matter. It's time for ZC8 to retire.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Quote from: buckzumhoff on Today at 03:39:10 AMQuarterback didn't lose the game he was running for his life.Brown is a good quarterback.  Got beat by broken plays where Kelly beat us outside. Can't give him 8 seconds to throw the ball. Someone will get open  . Got outcoached but good game . Up 21-7 Castillo blew the game if he kicks the field goals we win.  Got beat by a bad kicker hallarullah who couldn't much anything a few weeks ago

It's not realistic to expect Castillo or any CFL kicker to make 55 yard field goals more than 50% of the time.  45 yard one sure, but not so much the other.

lol at Brown being a good QB.  He is a bottom-of-the-barrel starter.  Good quarterbacks don't pass for 30 yards, give up nearly that much in sacks and throw 2 interceptions in one half no matter how bad the team is in front of them.

it's not realistic to expect a kicker to kick 55 yard field goals.  But the coach puts him out there.. you know if he misses a field goal Toronto has a good kick returner. So.  You try a 55 yarder. You miss. The ball doesn't just get run back 40 yards it comes back for a td.  That's not Brown's fault. Thats 7 points on Castillo and O'Shea.  Should have punted since it wasn't realistic to make a 55 yard field goal like you say

After our team had horrific starts, we adjusted and changed into a team with fast starts. But now we're a team that can't win because we will blow the 2nd half to good teams. I don't even think the other teams worry anymore when down 2 scores.

They all adjust at half time and we don't counter adjust. They shut down our O and wear out our D.

And for some reason we don't play aggressive at all when tied or up. And we have no playmaker on O to lean on and bail us out. Not like the other teams do.

How many 2 and outs in the 2nd H??
Never go full Johnston!

Throw Long Bannatyne

Quote from: markf on Today at 03:46:08 AMAnyone know what happened on their two long passing td?

Falling apart after Argos had 1 first down to bomber 14..

That takes some serious choking.

Seemed to be communication breakdowns on both occasions, physically the secondary competed well against some very good receivers.
