How about bringing back Jordan Younger for a role coaching the defence? He seems to have done a good job coaching the DBs in Winnipeg.

I was yanking your chain a little, RJ, but Younger hasn't been a disaster in Winnipeg. The DBs do seem to be performing better although how much of it has to do with coaching and how much with personnel is debatable.

Let's just bring the band back together... Why not bring back Barker to be the GM, Milanovich to be the Head Coach, Marcus Brady to run the offence, Stubler to run the D, and Younger to coach up the young dbs ?
That worked amazingly well before...

Maybe Brady has been missed more than we all realize.

What's worse than the professionals knowing what the Argos are going to do before they do it, is that I, a mere fan, knows it too.

I'm all for protecting the QB to a degree, but if the QB lowers his body and head into the hit; I think the refs need to be more objective towards calling it.

Not irritated....livid!!! if that's called, Edm fans should be livid too. The hit on Reilly last week was worse and got no call that allowed a Sask TD.

CFL officiating. There's no cure.

Totally disappointed with game, but like most thought Franklin shows promise even though his play dropped in the second half.
Not getting into the off season yet, but I hope Popp stays. As for Trestman...not sure. The offence seems to try the same thing week in week out. Short passes on 2nd and long etc. Trestman seems stubborn with his system and it appears other teams know how to play it. (play tight they don't throw deep!!)
At this point I don't think Franklin can succeed in this offence. Let alone anyone else.
Obviously the D needs an overhaul. I predict Johnny Football gets his first win against us. FFS!

Alas, by and large anyone 1/8 paying attention over the past (too) many years can call the next Trestman-Milanovich-Brady-Trestman play.

How I miss the Flutie years, when the team actually knew what it was doing and had the talent to play well against, and usually defeat, any opponent.

And how salaries didn’t matter and almost giving us a bankrupt league.

At that time, was the Argos' payroll significantly above the average?

Claybrooks has ultra limited coaching experience; i get he is doing a good job with the talented Stamps D on a perennial powerhouse team, but his resume is very limited; IMO - a smart team would hire a guy for HC with significant coaching experience in college ball and/or the pros - DC, OC and preferably some HC experience; but hey, it the good ole CFL we're talking here and some former players with a couple of years coaching experience are big favoriites to some cause they were names in the league or are buddies with somebody in a CFL organization; can work out sometimes though.

Anthony Calvillo as next Argo HC !!! - guy was a great player, and he's coached a bit for the Als & Argos.

:confused:

I would say yes. Flutie alone was making $1M.
