No doubt Lawrence is trying his hardest, but the inconsistency in his snapping is becoming really costly. When and if Churchill is healthy enough to play, I wonder if we will try him at LG and move Blake to centre. I fear Nicastro is still a couple of months away from being ready.
MBT's inconsistency is his consistency, it seems. (Or vice versa.) It was good to see him attempt more long throws, and connect on a couple, but he also missed some mid-range easy completions that should have been gimmes.
Our d-line made life difficult for the immobile Fajardo. The secondary also had a pretty strong game but there were four or five troubling breakdowns. McManis is having an all-star season, and Muamba is not far off that pace.
If we had lost this game, the biggest cause IMO would have been kicking issues. Bede's missed kickoff and Haggerty's rouge punt both gave Sask field position that resulted in touchdowns, and Bede's missed FG late in the game could have been a killing blow. I still have tons of faith in Bede, but I'm starting to wonder if he needs MBT as his holder. Jury's out on Haggerty but I'm confident he will sort his punting issues out.
