Jason Maas is tired of answering a specific question

The Montreal Alouettes are going through a difficult period without their injured star quarterback Davis Alexander. The Sparrows have just suffered their fourth consecutive defeat.

This absence seems to be weighing heavily on the team, which has been unable to find its winning ways for several weeks. Thursday night's 26-13 loss to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers rekindled the debate about the team's dependence on its playmaker.

Since the start of the season, Alexander has established himself as a key element in head coach Jason Maas' offensive system. His vision and precision made all the difference in tight games. However, since he has been sidelined, the Montreal attack has struggled to score points, and frustration is growing among fans.

Jason Maas rejects excuses and calls for a collective effort

Asked once again about the impact of Alexander's absence, Jason Maas showed signs of annoyance:

“Obviously, with Davis Alexander, we're a better team, I'm not going to deny that. Now we've got to win games without Davis Alexander and we're going to do that by playing together.”

This speech is intended to make the whole group take responsibility. The Alouettes will have to find quick solutions, because the playoff race is unforgiving. Relying on a more aggressive defense and a diversified forward line could be the key to avoiding a drop in the standings.

The Alouettes will enjoy a week off before playing a very important game against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on September 6.
