And we can't even buy a touchdown.
Unbelievable.

Blame the OL No Protection
it begins...
When your go-to-guy is Brock Ralph, ummmmmm errrrrrm, not going to happen.
The way he played tonight, when Armstead comes back, we will still be a one-armed non-bandit. It is a mess.
I expect that Walker will be released after tonight. Tape doesn't lie.
Oski Wee Wee,
I must have missed something. Curry was the special teams player of the week. What was Walker doing back there?
Agreed about Walker.
Actually, I was amazingly surprised that he was back on the field after the touchdown.
what about french and bauman they were no where to be found i hardly ever heard their names.
Our offensive line can't block and other teams know it. When tonight and all season has our quaterback countered this with the quarterback running the ball? Hardly ever. A quarterback draw or taking off on a roll out. So many times I see openings for the quarterback to take off and run but it never happens. The opposing defense knows this and go all out to get the pocket for a sack which is what is happening or a rushed throw as the quartback scrambles.
Every game this season our corners are too far off the line. If the Cats wanna talk about making some plays then please stop the 5-10 yard completions with the corner getting there way to late again and again.
We played a pretty good team tonight fellas. Two glaring things to me from tonight; we must make the routine catches and we must role Casey Printers out. Also I think Jesse will be a big help with protection and running obviously, plus Casey also obviously will benefit from more reps.
We also missed Armstead in my mind. Anyone know why Nate Curry isn't or wasn't used instead of Jo-Jo Walker on field goal returns?
Patience my friends, the Cats will probably at best win 3 or 4 of the last seven. That being said I think next year's season tickets should come with a guaranteed win total say at least 9-9. What do you think? I'm serious, no fans or season ticket holders deserve it more in my view. It would be radical but after another terrible season say (4-14) it also might really help.
RevClark:
Perhaps you can explain why every team we encounter is having a breakout game?
Argos: best Defence in the league.
Blue Bombers: best Offense in the league.
Montreal: Best Quarterback in the league.
These are excuses. No professional makes excuses.
oline was awful ,droped balls,no jesee,no armstead,3 days of new offence.casey did ok with what he had to work with.oh and turnovers too,then theres jo jo walker thats a whole new topic.
While I agree that are talent level needs an upgrade. I also think that the current reality is that we have now employed a very good q.b. who did not have either his starting running back or wide receiver which left the defence on the field way to long.
He will need at minimum another week if not two to get the system down and Winnepeg knew it and played against it well.
You cannot blitz when you're tired which leaves a vanilla defence that even a second string q.b. played well against.
We have to catch the ball and sustain drives and you do that with a good or in Jesse Lumsden case a superior running back. Having an experienced wide receiver (Armstead) will help to.
I still maintain that there is some good but very raw talent on offence and that this team's defence just spends to much time on the field.
You think this team can win 3 or 4 games????
Not unless things change....
See the co-ordinators thread.
Curry should have been returning Punts and Field Goals.
Casey should roll out more and use his running as an option.
Did any one else find that Printers looked slower than they expected? I found Williams looked much quicker and more elusive
Thats not printers fault, the gms and coaching staff for not getting a good support staff.Yes we are promising but we still need to fill alot of holes to get better! time will tell!
