We need a 2 and out so we can start a drive with half decent field position.,

[Lion Guy]

have we stopped one run for less than 6 yards tonight?

[swervynmerv]

Nope

Re: the run stopping. Sol E used to always drive into a hole when a running back appeared. Bighill doesn't seem to attack as aggressively. It's disappointing, especially given all the talk about how good our D line supposedly was in the preseason.

Our D Line is getting all kinds of respect. Teams have changed their entire passing strategy, up to and including keeping in an extra blocker, to account for it. What happens, however, is that our MLBs get exposed as liabilities in pass coverage, as Bighill was on the pass on that drive.

We don't look sharp at all. Defending Grey Cup champs at home. We should be all over the Esks but look like we did at this point last season.
