Wow, that DLines was sick!!! Malik Jackson and Odell Willis got some speed constantly going after Kerry Joseph. Then you have the force on Tom Johnson. If they keep playing that well, we will see Labinjo getting free again. I see that they are double-teaming Labinjo a lot last night. Our DBs are starting to get better, Browner, Dwight Anderson and Milton Collins were good. The rookies are getting better and still learning the CFL. Our LBs also did well. You won't really notice Blackmon but James and Carpenter were flying over. Toronto never got a good field position in the second half. They said the best field position they ever have is the 31 yard line. So, it means our D and the Special Teams are trying to bury them a lot.
As for Offense, that wasn't the best offense yet but they are starting to pick up again. Thelwell, Lewis and Copeland had a pretty decent night. Yes, we are still missing the running game but it will come. Burris made some mistakes but he atoned for it.
One negative aspects of the game is the penalties. There are way too many penalties. ON the first half alone, i see 3 unnecessary roughing penalties within 5 minutes span.
I am happy with the win and that game sort of confirmed my suspicion on Kerry Joseph. The guy is overrated. He is not that good like what the media keeps saying.
Next game against BC Lions.
