I think that you have the best coach in the league in Trestman and one of the best gms in Popp... They have quite the eye for talent. Macpherson was the quarterback I really would of liked to see the Eskimos go after when he requested a trade two years ago but at the time we had one of the biggest idiots in league history in Danny Maciocia at the helm and would of never traded Ray.... I think Macpherson has loads of potential and is just waiting to become a number one.. ![]() ![]() ![]() "“HA HA! THIS GAME WILL NEVER END! I POSSESS THE SOUL OF EVERY GOALIE ON TEAM B!!

Jyles and Joseph will give you guys major headaches (trust me as an Argos fan I've seen a lot of those guys and while coaching ruined Joseph here, Jyles is as up and down and unproven as they come). we've been having trouble at the quarterback position for years, ever since Allen left, and it's no coincidence that we've generally been a non-playoff team since then. When you have a quarterback like Ray, obviously there's no guarantee to win the cup every season but if you put solid weapons around him (which the Argos have done i.e. Chad Owens, Boyd, Durie, Mann, Barnes etc.) he's going to at least get you to the playoffs. so yeah to be honest, last season I would've much rather been an Eskimos fan with their situation and this season I'm happier to be in the Argos' situation because we now have a quarterback for the next five or so seasons. Remember when Allen came to the Argos, everyone thought his career was done but he ended up getting five more years out of it, a Grey Cup, a division title, and an MOP. ![]() Registered S27, S29 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by jkrever@May 27 2012, 09:36 AM I definitely agree with that he is a great coach.. On a different note the als also brought in a couple canadian qbs.. Kyle Quinlan and Kyle Graves.. I think that Quinlan definitely has the potential to start in the CFL one day and possibly even Graves to... But lots of CIS qbs have had the potential to start in the CFL and none were given the chance...I really think the CFL needs to think about having a mandatory Canadian qb on every roster/practice roster that doesn't count against the ratio... ![]() ![]() ![]() "“HA HA!

Joseph was good last year and capable of coming in for Ray when he was having a bad game I would expect him to do the same this year... I am really interested in one of are three younger Qbs in Jeremiah Masoli, Marc Mueller and Eric Ward.... This is Masoli's first training camp here and I think he has the potential to at least be a back up one day from what I have seen read, seen.. Mueller I am not sure about but I am sure he will bounce a round a bit in the CFL and Ward has a huge arm but I am not sold on him..I feel that I am a lot more excited for this season than I was for last season or the past couple of seasons... Because going in you have no idea what is going to happen. ![]() ![]() ![]() "“HA HA! THIS GAME WILL NEVER END! I POSSESS THE SOUL OF EVERY GOALIE ON TEAM B!! CREW 4 LIFE!!

I know Masoli fairly well because I'm an Oregon Ducks fan and he was there for a bit, good athlete, strong as a bull and can run too, seems like he'd fit the CFL well.
I guess if you're an Eskies fan you haven't really needed to get used to trying to develop a quarterback but it's really hard to do in this league so I think you should probably be prepared to be patient, could take a long time and quite a few different tries. ![]() Registered S27, S29 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by jkrever@May 27 2012, 10:00 AM I am fine with waiting... Its my fellow fans that are calling for Tillmans head right now though... Tillman is one of the most successful gms in league history.. I really hope he doesn't get fired... Some are even comparing him to Danny Maciocia one of the worst gms in cfl history... ![]() ![]() ![]() "“HA HA! THIS GAME WILL NEVER END! I POSSESS THE SOUL OF EVERY GOALIE ON TEAM B!! CREW 4 LIFE!!

Tate better turn out to be a good starting QB after the Stamps traded Burris to Hamilton

![]() Registered S27, S29 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by lemieux66lemieux@May 30 2012, 12:00 AM I think he will... He was great near the end of last season... I think Hamilton has a real shot at the grey cup this year if Burris can play like he always has... Fantuz looked a bit off to me last year after coming back from the NFL but I think he is one of the best and will rebound this year... ![]() ![]() ![]() "“HA HA! THIS GAME WILL NEVER END!

going to be another scary season for the Riders its pre season only but still.
SSK aquired the "Mayor of Swaggerville" but yet the Defense is shit. Future looks bright though. ![]() Registered S27, S29 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by Dion.SoDmG@Jun 16 2012, 12:37 PM I agree...I like their future...Never been a fan of their GM Taman though.. Eskies played last night...Didnt start any offensive starters and still led 3 quarters of the game on purely are awesome defence...Masoli looked like he was told to not run to see what he could do passing the ball...Didnt do a great job...Still a year or two away from starting..I liked Nichols though he controlled the ball well except for his two interceptions...I guess hes a bit rusty has only played one down of football since 2009....Tate did definitely not look very good to me.. On the other hand Sinopoli (canadian qb) played amazingly well and led the Stamps to a late 4th quarter comeback... ![]() ![]() ![]() "“HA HA! THIS GAME WILL NEVER END!
