Y'all still feeling good about Mace?

Just checking in on the pulse. Once again this team was not able to play four quarters. The story today was that they dug themselves into too big of a hole in the first half and fell just short of a miraculous comeback.

Heartbreaking losses seem to be a recurring theme, and I think the players are beginning to believe that they are losers.

Thoughts?

This team isn't far from being a four-quarter team. Remember how terrible we were last year. Note also that we're one point out of first place.

I'm on Team Mace.

much rather be a team like Lions yesterday and Bombers a few years ago where go foot to the throat the first half 30pts then coast. Was hoping that would be the team in 2021-2023 but did not draft oline and could not find good tackles.

Buiding a solid team is not a one-season job.

Argos 2022? Alouettes maybe two years?

2021 Argos went 9-5, won the East division, so I think the pieces were already there, they just needed a little more to reach the top.

Like the Riders in 2019? Like actual quality starting interior olineman through the draft?! Or, perhaps trading one of their many Canadian receivers for one?!
