Fatty Liver Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Disappointed not to see Green back on the roster. The pass rush has grown weaker since they moved away from the heavy rotation scheme they employed earlier in the season to keep them fresh and motivated. Corney isn't getting as many reps. as he was earlier either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Hoping hard to see McDuffie back in the lineup. He makes a HUGE difference. No offence to Heath, but he was no-name compared to brand name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasnt because hes a rb, its because he isnt KR. He will be on the roster because our back up RB, lochard is injured. And since harris is banged up we need a viable back up. Do you think jerome messam is a returner too? Hes a higher quality rb then flanders... The only reason he would be returning is we have to get use out of that DI spot, fogg suffers at DB while doing both duties, mcduffie is injured, harris is banged up, and lochard is out. Heath is faster, and returned some in college. And look what hes done. Flanders didnt even return in college. But then these sources said gurley would be on the roster, which is now contradicted.

Its gonna be interesting. My vote is game time decision. If McDuffie is deemed healthy enough he plays, if he isn't Gurlie puts on the pads. Whether he gets to go on the field at all...

Its beyond tough to pry any actual facts from our coaching staff before the game, if any one in the medias word is worth listening to its knuckles. Which is what makes an interesting/mess of a situation. If mcduffie cant go (I really hope he can) and if gurley isnt dressing then what? I actually wouldnt mind seeing fog used more as the extra DB and have him do both return duties. Hes a big play guy, but hes probably our worst cover guy.

mbrg Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 If McDuffie can't go, Gurlie dresses. They aren't wasting that roster spot. 3 plays in and one of the receivers gets injured? It's not ideal, but an unprepared Gurlie running go routes down the sideline is better than Richards drawing in for the rest of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Honestly I'd be surprised if Gurley even makes the trip to BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he is gonna play as a KR so your point is wrong. And Messam is a different type of player so your point is meaningless. They are trying to get him somewhere on the roster because he deserves to play.If you have a problem with that it's your problem not mine.?

And no, it takes 2 injuries, 1 guy who couldnt do the job, a 2nd guy who cant do both return jobs AND start at db, and flanders emergence as a runner to have him considered as a candidate to fill in for a game. That doesnt make him a kr. Its similar to when kerry jospeh was punting and kicking for ottawa because their kickers went down. It doesnt make him a kicker. and if you cant see that, then your bubbles glasses are the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweep the leg Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 My guess is that Flanders will be a "kick returner" the same way Lochard was, meaning he'll be back deep but almost never touch the ball. He'll just be the blocker closest to the returner when he catches it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpgallday1960 Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 I just went on blood pressure medication and the Bombers are doing their damnedest to put me in an early grave. They don't seem to want to win any games the easy way anymore. Think we got a lucky break on the Harris non-fumble but reffing tends to even out over time.
