Game 3 post-game thread

Early thoughts from this one...

1. This felt exactly like the Sask game - Hang around, but not really hang around and the result is really never in doubt.

2. I can't find the words to describe what management did to a rather competent offense the last couple years.

3. If this team is spent to the salary cap they are severely overpaying players.

4. You can't hang this on Dane Evans - Stein should be charged with malpractice for this offense.

5. Im not convinced this is on Condell either, he's shown he can call plays that generate yards and points, when you cant block nothing else matters.

6. Papi White is not a professional receiver, and we dumped Acklin for him? And hes not even returning kicks?

7. Dunbar cant get 15 targets, he's not that good.

8. Kicking a FG down 16 was June Jones stupid. Making a 2 score game a 2 score game against a team that doesnt give up TDs.

9. This team reminds me of the mid 2000's Blue Jays. Good enough to compete but not good enough to win anything. It's purgatory.

10. If what you're watching surprises you - or you're that angry - you are either very optimistic or somehow didn't see this coming. I'll give you credit for being an optimist.

Cross-posting my "Burn the Witches" post:

This was one VERY uninspired football game.

We were in trouble WELL before the coin toss - with that useless sack of potatoes called Okafor actually starting at Guard.

I can't remember a single play where I saw an open receiver. No matter what the cheerleaders say on here, they are simply not good enough. Too small, too inexperienced, too useless.

Our placekicker missed two FG attempts, costing the team 6 points. He's reverting to his old ways, and hopefully Orlondo will actually have the stones to cut him.

Whoever thought it was a good idea for Addison to block Jefferson or Jeffcoat should be fired. There's a reason we have a guy named Jake Burt on the team.

Two bad snaps in a row in the 4th quarter killed any chance of a drive. Not surprising, considering who Orlondo's forced to play due to the incompetence of the Three Monkeys.

We seem to have found a punter.

The running game, through no fault of ST-E (or whoever takes a handoff - it doesn't really matter), is a shambles with this O-line.

Dunbar coughed up a pick-6 in the 4th after the ball hit him RIGHT in the hands. And ANOTHER one inside 3 minutes.

There was actually a LEG WHIP penalty called against WPG. I seriously thought Chris Walby had strapped on the pads again.

The Blue Jays won, so that's a bonus.

Dunbar needs to be released. He's nothing but a liability.

This team is a disaster. It starts with the President of Football Operations, his three co-underlings who can't seem to find their keisters with both hands, and the Head Coach who continues to make the same horrible coaching decisions every frickin' year.

I feel that with the personnel we have, the playoffs are a pipe dream. If the idiots in the front office can't find any replacement players for the tomato cans we currently have, they should be sent packing with a size-18 boot to their a$$.

Reality is if this team did what the 98 team did and sign every free agent out there we would probably win the Cup at home.
They had their chance and didn't do it last year. Why would they do it next year?

I don't get it. Even the most amateur armchair QB could see this OLine was not going to compete. At this point you do have to wonder if costs were cut due to the "transaction". 
It has to be a fair question. 
This Oline is not of professional quality.
Is Stein wearing too many hats? Does his defensive background cloud his judgement on Offense? 

Just another .500 or so season and disappointment at the end.
I suppose we could be the 9-9 team that wins the Grey Cup but I doubt it
