OT: Montreal Alouettes Thread

[cheeseburgers]

Do you think the Als are still around in 5 years? The fan support is at an all-time low. The team is mediocre at best and has been for almost 10 years.

For sure. I was in the general area after the game ended today and saw tons of people walking around in Als jerseys and could hear a lot of noise coming from the stadium. If they create a winning atmosphere the team will draw fans. Tickets aren't that expensive, and it's fun to watch a ball game outside.

That will hurt, Schiltz is not a #1 QB even if he was good when he replaced Adams both time

Neither is Adams

That's good to hear. There was a time in the Calvillo era where they were as popular as the Habs. It feels like they're an afterthought nowadays.

Good start so far.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Worst spot to lose possession.

At least they got the safety.

 

[Whitesnake]

Why so many stupid penalties? Geez...

It is always what undoes the Als. They always get into penalty trouble and let the other teams get momentum.

 

[Adam Michaels]

WOW!!!! What a catch by Wieneke for the TD.

And now Als regain their 12-point lead.

 

[peate]

Now that's a QB.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Now that's a QB.

That was a dangerous pass, though. Wieneke catching it over two RedBlacks was amazing.

But you're right. Schiltz is doing real well. Vercheval already mentioned that he made some veteran decisions when he got in trouble.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Aw yea! Interception.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Damn right! Sack and recovery.

 

[peate]

Shiltz is a bit better at moving the ball, but needs more effort from his receivers. He can see the guys that are 12 yards upfield, something Adams has trouble with.

[peate]

I hope Shiltz keeps playing. He deserves another start.

Als playing for 1st place against the Argos at Percival stadium. At least they're winning lately.

 

[ReganDevils]

watching Alouettes tonight in USA.... looks like that stadium is an awesome place to watch a game!

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

Solid game by the Als so far, Shiltz is giving them a chance to win and sees the field way better than Adams. This is his team for the remainder of the season and I’d try Harris if need be but Vernon is done here.

27-10 early in the 4th quarter for Als.
