Now that Austin is released from T.O., maybe it is time to give Barrett the Golden Handshake!
What is Kerry Joseph doing in the game when he is injured? Do we want to lose him for the rest of the season? We do have Crandell and Butler dressed; use them and give them reps! IF Joseph is lame, they will have to come in. We were close enough that with one quarter left, Crandell could have engineered one or two TDS to get us a win!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but when Roy was first hired, he immediately started looking for a head coach. And I'm pretty sure one the leading candidates was George Cortez. They wanted him, but he chose to leave Calgary for the States. Now we have Cortez as an assistant. Wouldn't it make more sense moving him up rather than looking outside?
Saskatchewan isnt even last in the CFL,or the West for that matter. So, they obviously do have something to lose. Everyone knows the West is gonna be tight this year, so everyone is gonna have a less than stellar year as far as wins and losses are concerned. I agree Kerry Joseph prolly should have come out of the game. But thats not necessarily DB’s fault. Kerry could have easily said to danny he was ok to play. Also, Kerry Joseph isnt having a bad season. He also gets paid like 4 times what marcus crandell does. Benching an “elite” QB, you know the kind 99% of rider fans wanted isnt the answer either.
I wouldn't be against Austin coming here. I think the guy is smart, his only problem in Toronto was that, well, he was in Toronto!
Maciocia wouldn't be bad either. Again, his problem is that his players suck. . .
As for Danny and Shivers. . . I think they both need to be let out, unless they win the Grey this season. I've always been a Barrett fan, but when he's 3-4 with the talent we have this season? Ugh. . .
Danny Maciocia was a fill in, he took a good strong team that was getting old in the tooth and didn't do anything with it.
They lucked out last year when BC imploded. I mean why do you thing Higgens left.
In terms of Austin, not enough experience to be head coach. But there are others.
By watching this game it became clear early on, the focus was French because Calgary wouldn't expect it. That was not only stupid, but down right dumb. The shake up has to happen sooner rather then later.
A 9 & 9 season is not going to cut it this year. Get rid of Barrett and Shivers.
