    Owusu-Ansah = retired
    Vaughn = season ending injury
    Jermaine Gabriel = injured
    Murray = Ottawa
    White = Montreal
    Plummer = injured
    Ball = injured
    Wynn = injured
    Lemon = traded to BC
    Butler = retired

    Yup - definitely a different defence this year

    I still think the problem is with the lack of pressure from the defensive line - this is being exasperated by a weaker secondary and you have the current defence.

    How bad was the tackling in that 80 yard run? Really missed gabriel’s sure tackling there

    You've seen in previous games that Masoli and Collaros have been forced from the pocket, but the Argos are terrible at contain and the QB is usually able to make the play.

    You're bang on with those statements.

    Continuing to trot out some of the same mediocre or sub-pars - including the useless production from DE; this DC for the Argos is a clueless clown IMO/

    Even last year the team seemed to struggle with QB's who could get out of the pocket.

    Too many similarities to the 2016 season IMO.

    Such is life though, to have two terrible seasons sandwiched between a Grey Cup isn’t the worst outcome in the world (although obviously not the best).

    For what it’s worth, Calgary almost has as many regular season wins this year-to-date and the boatmen this year-to-date and last year combined. I’d still take the blue hand over the red hand although yes, it’s been painful at times this year.

    Are we sure Chamblin = Arkansas? I don’t see him on their website.

    Supposedly he's a quality-control coach. Maybe they don't list "sub-coaches", or maybe he never went there at all.

    They still have Jordan and Tiggle for the MLB spot, but Woods IMO is the best at reading the plays and getting his nose on the ball, when he's healthy. Looks like almost a lost season for him. Hopefully he can get healthy in the off season and make another run next season.

    I see Edmonton signed MLB Taylor Reed, a prime FA acquisition during the off season to their PR yesterday. Did he even report to TC? Anyone know what happened there? Anyone...Buehler....

    He was added to the 6game in June. Removed later on and then dropped.
