I don't think the LB's are overrated and perhaps some of those missed tackles are the result of the running backs making it through the line without getting hit while on the Argo's and Al's d-lines can give their LB's a hand by at least getting the back off his balance a bit.

These LB's are the best in teh league in my view and have probably played the most minutes of any defense in teh league.

But in the 3-4 defense there are going to gapping holes in the line on running plays. The linebackers are supposed to fill those holes and stop the runner 1-on-1. They haven't done a good job of that at all this year.

I saw at the begining of the 3rd quarter Souza went in as QB, I saw the first couple plays of his drive were pretty decent, I didnt get a chance to see the rest of the game, overall how did he do? I understand he wasnt spectaulare looking at the final score, just wondering if he looks like he might be potential of if it was just a big fluke?

Souza will start. The guy came in cold as hell, never throwed a pass in CFL history and he makes some big plays early. He got it tough at the end of the game, since he had to put the ball in the air every play because it was so late. The guy can run and he has a quick relase. 3 years ago Sanky had to start in one of these Edmonton games and did great, Souza can do the same.

Dear god I hope we beat Edmonton, I hate them so damn much.

Hey, Souza actually isn't so bad. But it would help if our recievers could actually make an effort to catch a ball. It's like they're expecting a perfect pass everytime, they're not gonna get that very often from our QB's, need to make an effort.

I sure wish we had a running game so there wasnt so much pressure on the QB and WR, I think that would help alot!
