What a f…….joke. I said it at the beginning of the year they will not make the playoffs and they are proving me right. -

Wonder if Pierce has thought of drawing up plus where are receivers are not always coming across the middle just waiting to get smoked? Really? No wonder we have more on the 6 game than any other team ! Also wonder when O’Shea will swallow his pride and put in another QB -

At least our kicker is tuned in. Collaras sucks simple as that. And pierce’s play calling is garbage -

GTD WEEK 4 - BOMBERS @ STAMPS
Old Bomber Fan replied to JohnnyAbonny's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I may have missed something but here is my take on the Bombers so far this season 1. can't help but believe some starters from last year have come into camp out of shape and not taken part in any of the physical stuff that goes on in camp. 2. 11 starters do not take a snap during the exhibition games 3. RESULT: a. several starters now injured some for the entire season and b. other have had a slow start and complain about not being involved in the game todate 4. This type of start is reminiscent of Joe Mack days were the old boys club dominated which leads me to the coaching staff 5. Oshea has reverted back to the days when he first arrived, poor talent selection for games and that goes back to last year's Grey Cup. He is too loyal to veteran players even those who should know better to show up in shape yet still panders to them 6. Pierce is showing that the offense he has been in control of for the past few years is nothing but a carry over from Lapo's offense and it isn't getting better but more predictable. He play calling leaves a lot to be desired and was only bailed out in the past by a stingy defense. Even an armchair qb like myself can tell you what he is going to try next. The sweeps are a joke; keeping Strevler in the pocket when he could be a dual threat to run or throw out of the pocket is a no brainer to me but I guess I don't know anything. Start out run on first down and pass on second is becoming so routine and very easy to defend. 7. Can't blame Strevler entirely on his performance BUT as a professional football player, one would have thought he would be taking reps with either the fist team or at least scout team during every practice and getting in the throwing reps knowing he is not only the short yardage QB but also the backup unlike other years. They have a third QB who didn't see the field so his purpose is what? And to run Strevler when he is in as a permanent replacement instead of creating what I mentioned in 6 is just looking for more trouble. 8. So in my humble opinion to sum up the Bombers to date; the coaching is terrible, the veterans have yet to play like they are veterans and we are 0 -4. I will go out on a limb as say at this rate, and injuries play a role in this, the Bombers will be 0-8 before they win one. That is a hard pill to swallow for me personally as I have been an ardent fan since 1953. Been through the ups and downs and looks like we are on the down once again. 8. -
GTD WEEK 4 - BOMBERS @ STAMPS
Old Bomber Fan replied to JohnnyAbonny's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
But we gave them a day off of practice so they would be fresh?? It also shows you how many reps stare Lee gets in practice… nil! I understand they have a lot of players hurt but I see bad coaching, bad prep, and the o line is nowhere near where they should be. -

GDT - Is 3rd time the charm vs Lions
Old Bomber Fan replied to Booch's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
The secondary coverage is a total joke! They cannot cover anything. With that said there isn’t a lot of pressure so receivers have time. Not sure younger is the man. He may have been a good linebacker coach but think he is over his head. If there is a silver lining the offence showed up so that is a step in the right direction. Die ski is back but Oliver’s nothing close to last year. Maybe next season he will keep himself in game shape while rescuing dogs. -
WEEK TWO GAMEDAY THREAD - BOMBERS @ REDBLACKS
Old Bomber Fan replied to Mike's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Personally I think the defence is a very weak link. They have trouble stopping the run and cannot cover in the secondary and that is two weeks in a row! The offensive line is nowhere near what it was last year and our running game is nowhere to be seen. I won’t talk about play calling as I have never been a Pierce fan from day one. He doesn’t challenge downfield and these Ricky dink passes are terrible. With that said it is a long season. I did see some improvement from last week but again what was the opposition? We will find out next week -
GDT Can the Bombers D shutdown the Als?
Old Bomber Fan replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
It is very obvious who participated in preseason and who didn’t! Maybe our training camps have become nothing more than expectations and just to see who of the newbies will make the team. The offense is terrible and the secondary is as it was during preseason…,pathetic! Expectations do not win games execution and attention to detail does. Hopefully Pierce and Younger will take these guys to task because if they don’t this will be a very long year! Very disappointed especially when many of the starters didn’t take a down during preseason! It shows -
GDT Testing our offence without a QB
Old Bomber Fan replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Secondary is a big issue. I know no veterans but they can’t cover anything. There has to be a good review. No one has stood out to me -
