guys....maas, has never in his career been a great long ball thrower, his specialty is short to intermediate, dont you remember when he and Ray were fighting for the number 1 job in Edmonton way back when, maas was the control guy and Ray the deep threat, nothing has changed about him, he is what he is.
Don’t forget that the complete lack of a running game really frees up their safety to roam free in deep coverage. A second longer and the safety is there in double coverage.
If you are still hung up on this "Maas can't do it" thing, then you are out to lunch!
There is more to being a QB then just "throwing" the ball.
There is making the call, making sure your team is lined up correctly, reading the defence, make any of changes if needed....then actually starting the play. All in under 20 secs.
Then executing the play on reading the action while on the run and completing the pass and hoping to god that the receiver has run the route correctly.
.....blatant stubbornness (football side) to acknowledge the truth has been the downfall of this team for many, many years......other teams correct the obvious and move on!
Im still waiting Mikey, Who's blatant stubbornness from the football side has caused the downfall for many, many years??
So it isnt Lancaster? It cant be Marshall? Im curious? Who are you afraid to call out?
If you have the guys to type it, you should be able to explain it… help us continue the discussion…
you’ll be waiting along time.hee’ll never say anything bad about any of them. he only looks for reaction and lets everyone else take it for personal attacks. most loved athlete in hamilton:the backup QB!!
Unbelievable how many fans get on the starting QB's case. How many more QB's need to be run out of town before people realize that the crux of the problem has not been the starting QB for a long time? Yeah Calvillo was a horrible QB too...oh wait he is only a star for Montreal now but he he was not good enough for many in Hamilton. Now people are still on Maas's case. Geesh...
I now believe that we could have God as our QB with him setting every single possible CFL record and many people would still call for the backup QB to be put in.
This love affair of the backup /hatred of whoever is the starting QB has gotten very tiresome.
Jason likes to run the ball himself alot and has taken a few needless shots, one of those shots is going to put him out and Eakin will take us to the playoffs.
Can only say that you can't change your QB only for the sake of change. Maas is the "guy" until he proves otherwise. I would like to see him look off his intended receivers and to quit being so predictable as far as continually going to the wide side of his formation. If the line can't hold their blocks then more roll out type passes should be incorporated in the offense.
