Looks like Shaw's days are numbered. Had four points on his foot and blew them all

I don't think it is fair to blame Shaw on both losses to the Stamps. The Esks offense did not produce against the Stamps and they were just lucky to be ahead or close late in the game. Eskimos did not deserve either game and unfortunately for Shaw, he was the last hope for both games. On the Labour Day game, that was a tough kick against the wind on 40+ yards. On the 2nd game, he was just unlucky the ball hit the crossbar. I have to say the Eskimos' organization should blame themselves for the losses. They dressed 4 RBs Messam, Charles, Boyd and McCarthy and did not even use them properly. I believe combined backup QB Mitchell + R Romby Bryant had more yardages than all 4 of them combined. That was so sad. Then they have a starting QB on the sideline on both game (not that he can make the difference because Jyles is probably the worst starter). Kavis Reed is well known for some stupid moves. Remember last year with his switch of his kickers during the game against the Stamps?
With Dales probably gone for the season, Edmonton might use Shaw as a punter and McKnight as field goal kicker.
