I saw some pictures today from Calgary ..... that would be crazy to play in this early in the season. Hope its all good for the flights heading into the region as well.

Too bad the weather probably will improve, snowy conditions would play into our current 3-5 yard passing game.

Today's article in the Sun says that Durie should be back but Owens probably won't be.

**Wobbler** · 09-10-2014, 01:51 PM

I interpreted Milanovich's remarks (and Zicarelli's writeup) a bit more optimistically. Owens may not have practiced yesterday, but he doesn't need to. I think there's a good chance he'll be available on Saturday.

Sounds like Durie and Sirvincent are back ..... good more support on the Oline!

No Owens on the depth chart. Dammit. It's nice to see Durie back, but Bradwell-Watt-Guy-Barnes? Yeesh.

In other bad news, we six-gamed Marcus Thomas and Darvin Adams.

Jones is starting at SAM, presumably because Robinson is actually hurt(?), and our new-look secondary is Smith-McCollough-Gabriel-Suber-Carter. It's hard to know what to expect from those guys, obviously.

Something looks wrong there. I can't see Jones starting at SAM. To the best of my knowledge, he has never played DB, and the SAM mostly covers the inside slot. The depth chart the Argos tweeted this morning had Robinson at SAM.

You are right. Here is another one.

Shows Robinson at SAM instead of Jones. Must be a goof somewhere

No luck with receivers this year. Has there been any other team this decimated at one position in the history of the CFL? Yikes

Huh. I usually regard the PDF version as authoritative, but it certainly wouldn't be the first mistake. Angelo has a good point - Jones isn't slow, but he isn't exactly fast either... so I doubt that he'd be a great cover guy. Oh well. We'll find out soon enough!

I too regard the PDF version as authoritative. Also, Robinson has been moved to the one-game IR so it would seem to be unlikely that he will be manning the SAM spot. Perhaps Jones and Horton are swapping positions and that is the error, if there is one.

Just confirming that he saw a discrepancy that's all.

Fumble on opening kickoff. Well,there's always next week.

**jerrym** · 09-13-2014, 07:11 PM

Groundhog day all over again with that fumble on the opening kickoff!

**Wobbler** · 09-13-2014, 07:14 PM

TSN really doesn't put much effort into replays or breaking down player movement. We just did a terrific job of stopping Cornish in the backfield on 2nd and 1... somehow.

**QBall** · 09-13-2014, 07:17 PM

**** yeah! What a fantastic opening drive. That's my Argos!

**Wobbler** · 09-13-2014, 07:17 PM

Awesome protection for Ray so far. Admittedly we were in double tight on the Dupuis reception and Calgary didn't blitz, but he hasn't been significantly pressured so far.

**jerrym** · 09-13-2014, 07:17 PM

Durie's back with an ! after nice catches by Dupuis and Guy. Good to see backups making some catches also.

**Wobbler** · 09-13-2014, 07:28 PM

Seriously, the protection has been amazing. We can't have missed Rogers *that* much - I suspect that the whole line is playing better after some rest.

**QBall** · 09-13-2014, 07:28 PM

This is a beautiful thing to watch. The offense has finally turned into the well oiled machine we knew it could be. Ray has come out of his funk and is like a Terminator. Hopefully the team doesn't collapse. This could be the turning point for the season.
