Grey cup confirmed??

They really called that huh

 

[Senscore]

Calls just gonna go one way tonight I guess

The RB defense look so porous and little to no pressure on Harris

What poor play selection on 2nd and long.... throw a short go nowhere pass with a whole
team to beat.

New season, same crappy team.

Right now, our defence sucks. Hopefully they can address this. Open field tackling is very poor.

 

[Senscore]

Too many glaring weaknesses.


Great timing now that we have a QB

 

[SensCaper]

Well this has got interesting. A touchdown and we could win this. One thing we have to be happy about is our receiving core (and Dru). They are catching everything near them.

Joke of an O line

Joke of an O line

They can't create holes for the RB and can't handle the blitz. Brown is not fast enough and doesn't get rid of the ball when pressured.

I also hated every play after he got sacked it was always a short throw even on 3rd down with the game on the line when it made no sense.

The D can't cover the run or the pass even though they recovered 2 fumbles and an interception they looked awful giving up huge gains.

Wasn’t as close of a game as the box score makes it look

Obviously our defense looked really poor, a combination of a lack of pass rush and a new, inexperienced secondary. Give the opposition credit, though - Saskatchewan is the early favourite to win the West, and last night they showed why. If Trevor Harris can stay healthy I think they run away with the West title.

Here's one positive to take away from last night - Dru Brown. Dude went 34 for 41 with over 400 yards passing. You get that kind of QB play every week and you're going to win your fair share of games. Redblacks have clearly found their guy - now to start putting a team together around him....

New season, same crappy team.

Same crappy tackling, crappy O line (I feel bad for Brown and Stanback), crappy defence and crappy play calling.

What's worse however is the indiscipline of this team - it seems like every (stupid) penalty they take negates a big play, extends an opposing team drive or leads directly to a score. That's on the coaching staff - which unfortunately, is crappy as well ...
