Cobb has had a bit of a sophomore jinx this season, so I think the Leos can keep him contained. I hope Kevin Glenn spends a lot of the evening running for his life.
Flip sides for a moment and think on how you could exploit the Lions, it is with Cobb and pounding down our DL. Be aware and perhaps the Lions can use this to thwart the running game of Hamilton, but it could cost us this game more than any other single thing.

Well, not thrilled with the Dline being down to 4 guys, and hope they can use some Lb's and DE's.

Pumped for the game.

Dressing only 4 total D linemen is the dumbest idea I've seen yet. Absolute minimum would be 5 - - really need to have at least 6 available to be able to sub a DT and a DE.

When they name some guy from Toronto called Area51 as the most winningest(sic) coach of all time in the CFL then you can say it's dumb. Right now it's just thought provoking.
Shouldn't you be thinking about the Bummers? Enjoy the game and good luck tomorrow. It's difficult for me to drink beer at 10 AM.

If we've only got 4 D linemen dressed, then we are committed to a 3-4 scheme. If I was Hamilton I would go with a lot of no huddle. As much as we rant and rave about The Chap, this game may rest on the shoulders of Stubler and what he can do with our defensive secondary.

Well, it remains to be seen as no one has posted the Roster Actives as of yet have they?

I suspect also that Sol-e will drop to DE and Joe Henderson starts at OLB.

With Buono's comments about getting CP out of the pocket, I'm excited.......it's been many years that I've been preaching about Chapdelaine trying to convert mobile QB's in pocket passers and finally Buono has figured it out !! I will be watching very, very closely to see if Chapdelaine follows through with what Buono has said.

Well for me, Messam and Davis, I'd like to see more done with them on the offense, we started to see some of that last week, I'd like to see a bit more.

that's why I always admired John Walton (from the TV show The Waltons)... Old John Sr. refused to go to church but his wife never missed a Sunday service. So John got the house to himself all Sunday morning to do as he pleased. Of course it was the great depression, there was no TV so of course no football on TV (or likely radio either), and John probably didn't have a beer fridge in his man cave... but he probably had a mason jar or two of "the recipe" that he would have with his coffee on those blissful Sunday mornings.
