We should assume nothing about a position group that has had significant upheaval and will now be even more reliant on young players.
I want to believe the secondary will be better, but until I see it I won’t hold my breath.
As for Betts, he has earned his reputation playing against O-linemen that can’t even get on an NFL practice squad. I think the best we can hope for is that he’s a rotational depth player.
I think Decker is the one that would be the best judge of defensive talent. Decker is good but not all-pro. Decker is a crafty vet and knows all the tricks.
It was Decker that told the staff they they needed to get Houston on the field as Decker was having problems keeping him out of the backfield. Betts could be plan B if Houston isn’t back to his rookie form.
Is that because of the exchange rate?
I thought they aged hard up there because of the weather.
This girl is listed as 26 years old on the Canada Tinder.
Considering we played almost no starters… for Betts to play so little… he’s clearly no where close to making the roster. Too bad. Maybe the practice squad but he’s not exactly young.
Re: Manu–if you’re a Jumble fan, you might read something more into that–and Betts.
What is it with Canadian players? Maybe curling slows their athletic development? Maybe poutine should never touch the lips of professional athlete? I dunno…
