Quote from: Pete on Today at 12:03:12 AMI think if we play to win it will be fine, if we do what we did last game against  BC and play ultra conservative ie playing not to lose it will be a lot closer than it needs to be, where one drive or big play can make the difference for BC

That's our problem this season.  It's always one big return or drive or turnover that occurs later and then we all know it's over.  There is zero ability to rebound from setbacks.  We all know that any little mistake is literally the end of the world.  Yet the other team can screw up and still win...

Reminds me of 2014.
Never go full Johnston!

Yup. When we kicked that 6 yard FG in the first game i knew we were done.

When a coach does that the effect is bigger than the play itself

It shows he has no faith in players and would rather just play averages. Players are probably like "what is wrong with this guy"

The run defence sucks because the philosophy of Oshea and JY is some sort of "Non violence no attack the ball" thing,

A react to the opponent instead of attack, that just drives us all insane

I realized that me watching tonight's game is going to be like doom-scrolling.  I'm doom-cfl-watching.  I ready to be extremely angry and screaming at the TV.

Strangely enough, I'm at peace with it.  I'm kind of looking forward to it.

No idea what I'm going to do if we come out swinging and go up 33 points.  Even WFC can't blow a 33 point lead.  (Did I just jinx something??)

See if Ghandi's ghost wants to play LB for us?  Rename the club to the Winnipeg Pacifists?  Let's make sure we say "sorry" when the carrier runs right past us!!

Well, for what's it's worth, it may be the last time I can say this in 2026:

GO BLUE!
Never go full Johnston!

The other team are humans too... to quote Oshea

Another reason to go with the radio, no Henoc hate for Winnipeg.

BC just went to 3.7 decimal odds on playnow.  That's my threshold...  I may wait for WPG to go way up in 1st H to get it to 5+.

Someone at the stadium must be getting a feel for how much Horvath will play.  If he sits the 2nd H then BC is probably doomed.

Frankly he is hard to listen to. His brain works to fast for his mouth.

Does Buck do the same thing Oshea does..

Say personal records dont matter to the media but is well aware of them and tries to get them for the player?

Be scary if this Horvath gets going

How many INTs for Zach?  He gets so easily fooled by dropping-back WILL/MLBs.  At this stage in his career this shouldn't be happening.  Doesn't that often to T.Harris (well, except maybe his last 4-weeks of suckage).

We need Zach to throw 0 or maybe 1 INT, and NO fumbles for Brady.  Need to keep it clean.  Our D will get 0 turnovers like they always do.  Only if Salter airs it out all game will we get a shot at an INT.

Since he's listed as the 2nd RB, I think they play him for a few short plays for the record and then rest him so he doesn't get injured. I don't think he'll play enough to get going per se.
