September 26, 2015: Toronto Argonauts vs. Ottawa RedBlacks

The only flaw I saw in Spencer Saturday was he was unable to maintain a block long enough on a running play. Vidal is more physical....not sure how he is going to get back in the lineup. Good to see Milanovich stick with one RB instead of rotating them each series. Whittaker was allowed to find a grove and his performance showed it. Martin Wright has looked ok in his 2 games as well.

I still think the Argos can dress all of them. I love Kackert, but he's not really being used much. I say dress all the receivers. They can easily spell Whitaker with Coombs, or even Gillanders.

Yep, we need Hazleton in the lineup (and Spencer).

To take a bit of a tangent, what's up with Kackert? He looked great his first game back, not as good since, and now he's not called upon much at all.

I think they better get Kackert in there more often. If not rotating him at running back, have him play slot a few times. He can catch the ball and make yards. Why watse a good talent like that.

Sorry, he's not a slot back. He has ok hands for a running back, but catching the ball as a slot back is completely different. Most passes to RB's are releases, screens and swings. They are not in tight coverage at the time. I've noticed Kack has a tough time catching high balls. That won't work out of the slot back position. I would seriously consider playing Coombs more are RB in a set where you can get all 5 INT receivers on at the same time.

Actually Kack made some pretty good plays in the home game (remember what that is?) against Hamilton. He can still play, but at this stage I think Whitaker is a better fit. They IMO, don't need to be dressing 2 INT RB's.

I'd say he was riding a huge emotional high in his first game and overachieved and/or he picked up a nagging injury. I agree that he hasn't looked good since then, and at this point I'd have no problem taking him out of the lineup.
