Re: Who Is Coming Out of the Lineup for Charles Roberts
A hot topic ... it developed a life in the Post Game thread, so I will bring my comment over here ... ................ It looks like Charley will get playing time. Hambone's suggestion is interesting: Roberts and Wilson (or Hetherington) in; Bwenge (I would prefer Lumbala) and Hill out. We might see...

Re: Lions 35 - Cats 12 Post Game Stats and Comments
I don't see any purpose of putting Roberts and Logan on the field at the same time. Logan didn't gain 100 combined yds last game as the feature back, and now he has to giveup half his carries to Roberts? Neither of them is a blocker, so we need Green or Lumbala in there. I don't see much gain in tr...

Re: Who Is Coming Out of the Lineup for Charles Roberts
Ian Smart is the option that seems most obvious. It is the option I hope does not happen. You give up the best return man in the league for CR, who has indicated he does not want to return kicks. I expect Charley would consider this position beneath his stature. I'm guessing in this order. 1. Hill/C...

Re: Lions 35 - Cats 12 Post Game Stats and Comments
WRAP Our offence has now found the consistency it needed to find. It's been a combination of much better pass blocking, a more innovative offensive structure and much better play calling, and quarterbacking that has involved excellent execution, accurate passing, good quick reads, and poise. Stefan...

Re: B.C.-Hamilton game day thread
Wake up call. NFL calling. Enjoy his play while he is here.
And Buck is Back. Big Time. Havin' fun. Makin' reads. Mobility.
This is more like the Lions were when they were running the table on the league.

Re: Dave Dickenson
Wally said a lot of nice things about Dave. Sad to hear about the injury. Dave did a lot of good things for the Lions, and for Wally. Etc. :whs: I think Dave D set a tone for the Lions of professionalism, and high expectations, taking us from an ordinary, not very good team, into the flagship of the...

Re: Official NFL Thread 2008-2009
Not much of a betting man, WCJ. I read the commuter papers here in Van, and heard about an interesting bet..... Every year you can bet MAN or BEAST to win the Superbowl! So, the Ravens, Seahawks are examples of beast , Giants/Cowboys examples of man . :lol: I don't have favourite NFL teams but I le...

Re: So long Joe
To me it seems appropriate to have a send off thread for Joe Smith . Please if you don't agree , don't bother commenting here ,go start your own thread if you have something negative to say . In my opinion Joe Smith was a class act all th eway to the end . He handled himself with dignity in what mu...

Agreed. Short term move.Blitz wrote: I don't like this trade and will be surprised if Roberts is with us next season. He's here for depth or to start if he outplays Logan when he gets his chance.
I just hope it does not put Ian Smart on the bench. But with the unpredictable way things have been going ...

In tonight's game between the Argos and TiCats, Toronto was on the Hamilton 1 yard line. Second and goal. They spread out the receivers and ran an end around for a touchdown Wow. What a concept. Spread the field. Get some of the 12 defenders out of the box. Keep the D off balance. Who would've thun...

Re: Smith Traded, Winnipeg's Roberts traded....
Now we have 2 scatbacks. That seems like one too many. Does this push Logan back onto the bench? I don't see how you can trade for Charles Roberts and not play him. I'm thinking Logan is more productive at this time, although he does seem to have trouble with his high ankle sprain. Sorry to see Joe ...

Re: Als 30 - Leos 25 Post Game Stats and Comments
Jim Popp looked lost as a Head Coach last year, when Matthews succumbed to his health problems. But now Popp is looking very good, once again, as a General Manager. Hiring Marc Trestman, a very high risk move it seemed at the time, is looking better and better. Same with keeping Avon Coborne around ...
