Well, the game notes for the Eskimo contest look similar to past editions:
- 8 points in the second half, usually not enough to win a CFL game.
-No ball control offence or long sustained drives, the hallmark of past EE clubs since the days of Tom Wilkinson.
- One of the most unimaginative offenses I've seen in EE history. Try something else, like maybe a good old fashioned sweep, a double reverse, a flea flicker, some draw plays or some fakes. Maybe try some running plays with pulling guards headed outside to the wide side of the field instead of always running up the gut. Our head coach is an ex-QB and ex- offensive coordinator so you would think that a varied offensive attack would be the most important trait in the team's character but its just not so.
- Defence just wasn't good enough when they absolutely had to be. Lots of missed tackles. We simply have to find someone better at that safety position. There must be a capable Canadian somewhere. Is Trent Brown still living in the Edmonton area? Can John Farlinger still leg it out?
-Very little confidence in the field goal unit. 45 yards seems to be max.
-Mitchell, Hazelton and Williams were bright spots as was Jackson but he needs some blocks to help him out. When do you finally make a statement by getting a new special teams coordinator, if only to make a point that if you can't deliver, you can't stay with the team. It's not a charity event.
-Reilly was very ordinary in the game.
-Boateng has been our best defensive player in 2018.
