Evans looks closer to returning than Moose – he basically did almost a full practice, whereas Moose was mostly working with the sports therapists and trainers on his own.
Fingers crossed! It would be great to have even one of them back in the lineup. Both returning would be phenomenal.
What’s nice, at least today, is that neither Scott nor Uguak showed up on the injury report.
One area I’d like to see DA improve in (he rated himself a B- last game LMAO – dude is as unreal a competitor as any player I’ve ever seen) is finding his backside read, which most of the time is SSIII. There were 2-3 times in the ESF where he could have and should have looked to his running back on the checkdown – there was space and Stevie could have made something happen. And in those cases, the play fell incomplete, with Davis trying to force the ball into traffic (once to Mack, and once to, I think, Rambo?).
Some of that is the dog in him – looking to make explosive plays. But as teams get film on him, they are going to do their level best to take away the explosives, which means he has to learn some patience and play the ball control game. And it is frustrating for a defence to blanket coverage but then see the RB pick up 10-15 yards on a checkdown pass in the flat.
As funny as it is to say, if DA can put that checkdown game together and rein in the octane when necessary, our offence could be even better.

L. Brodeur-Jourdain y mentionne « quand on devient un monstre à deux têtes avec le jeu aérien et les courses, la défense doit prendre les bonnes décisions.
Ce sera important pour nous d’avoir du succès avec la course pour avoir le maximum d’options offensives pendant la rencontre ».

Avec le TRIO offensif: D. Alexander + S. Scott 111 + les receveurs et la puissance de la ligne offensive, les Alouettes ont tous les éléments pour une attaque balancée et surtout efficace.
À J. Maas & A. Calvillo de démontrer de nouveau leur gestion 2.0 d’une attaque balancée.
So Hamilton was great on D at taking the ball away, but bad defending the run. I really want to see us continue to pound the rock. It helps the pass, it tires their defence and it most importantly it will keep Hamilton’s dangerous offence off the field. That would a really what happened in the third quarter last weekend, we let the BB’s O back in the field.
Texte du 5/11 de J. Dunk, B.L.M. est très motivé pour la finale de l’Est 2025 vs Alouettes.
En 2023, lors de la demi-finale de l’Est vs Montréal, il n’a été pas le qa partant dans une défaite de 27-12…c’était M. Schiltz, il a joué seulement au 4ieme quart. 1 en 4 et 1 interception.
La petite histoire de B.L.M. et les Tiger-Cats vs les Alouettes, en éliminatoires, prochain chapitre le 8/11…
Je prédis une victoire des Tiger-Cats contre les Alouettes; j’espère me tromper comme samedi dernier alors que je prédisais une victoire des Blue Bombers contre les Alouettes.
Deux clubs solides, je prévois une victoire des Alouettes par un placement.
27 - 24

Hamilton can and will study film on DA, but until they actually play against him is another story. Generally, the ALS seem to play better on the road. Having said, I would like to see the 2023 Defense show up on Saturday.
Moose being healthy enough to play would definitely help. Without him, I’m not sure we can generate enough consistent pressure on Hamilton. Their O-line is top tier, way better than Winnipeg’s O-line.
As much as I love our team, and DA, I do not think we can win a shootout with Hamilton. Our best chance is to grind out a low-scoring game, but that requires our D to turn in the performance of the season against a future Hall of Famer, a top O-line, and a murderers’ row of receivers.
I hope I’m wrong. But my feeling is that DA’s undefeated streak comes to an end this week.
