True dat. Maybe he needs a new coach who knows what the fuck his role on the team is supposed to be.Quote:

The wide CFL field helps the return game and makes coverage more difficult, especially on missed field goal returns when the offence has all their big hoggies out there blocking, instead of the faster punt cover team. It doesn't make for a direct correlation to the NFL with the narrower field, nevertheless it does give some sense of these guys' abilities to read blocks, make people miss, and turn on the jets. Both these guys started out strictly as KR/PR types, but they're turning into creditable WRs.
For the hoggies fans, check out the 300 lb. DT making a block way downfield on the Williams run.
I wonder if any CFL offensive linemen, especially left tackles, would be worth targeting?Quote:

One thing you get with CFL linemen is tremendous cardio for big men. With the big field, they have to cover a lot of ground, plus many of the starters have to play STs as well, thanks to small CFL rosters. Then there's the 20 second clock leaving little recovery time. These big boys can run all game long.
