"They Are Playing For Their Jobs Now."

Litre was used extensively last night - most often on kick and punt returns. He is also our short yardage guy.

Tuck has lost the ball too many times, and Milanovich elected to use FG-G as a receiver subbing for Ternowski instead of him.

This guy is the best we have had in a looonnggg time here.

But every CFL player under contract still gets from December to February to pursue any NFL interest.
He basically said in the interview he had with Milton last week that his goal is still to play in the NFL.
He is basically using us to gather a nice pro level highlight package.

Stavros made multiple mistakes vs edmonton and looks like he was credited for a tackle he didn’t make also which is ridiculous. He was easily stiff armed twice and the one time was cause he tried to tackle too high which he should know better !!

Maybe that has something to do with the coverage team?

Smokey Stover?

Not at all - it’s a lack of leg strength.
It’s not about the returns, it’s about the lack of depth on kickoffs.

Flat out a weaker leg than most/all other kickers in the league.

It is not only the length of the kick but the height. If ML hits a longer kickoff it is a low screaming missle.

Coach Milo and Jones will make a serious overhaul of the current players on the team. The current scouting staff has underperformed. That needs to change.

Maybe some of these receivers are not at fault.
People who aren’t thrown the ball, or are “thrown” lousy passes, can’t really do much with it. Prime example from the Elks: Geno Lewis. The QBs generally seem to forget he’s on
the team. And I believe he is highly paid. In Montreal he was a show to watch by himself and the QBs knew it but Edmonton treats him like he’s crap. I expect he’ll move on. So how many
Hamilton players might fit this picture. Just not
getting thrown the ball. I don’t follow the team like most people here so I don’t really know, but
should check out the stats.
