Demski with all the fight in the world Good to see a heavy dose of Brady and a take what they give you offence so far

Great hesitation move by Brady

Boy holm almost took it home

You can just see the fire that burns in the guy for football. He could’ve been 5’9 260 and would still have been great. I love what he does with ob but he should be on tsn or coaching. I know his work life balance isn’t set up like that but he is such a gem.

I expect the bombers to show up in a big way.

Blue Bombers - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread

True, though he is a very talented oc. If any thing. I think they have out performed the talent they have on o. This might be part of why Kelly is sitting for the Argos. They don’t want to give our Defense a free game worth of film vs us. One game of your own film against a guy you prepared for and played is worth 10 games of other teams playing that guy. As it sits if we meet tor in the gc, which is the most likely out come, we will have only played him in his few reps in last years gc. We will have what 10-12 meaningful games worth of film at best and most of those will be him $&@! Kicking bottom and mid tier teams. -

Some nsfw titled wheeler walker jr songs too. He’s pretty hilarious. Awesome 100% on all fronts. I’d rather he come here than the xfl usfl. I feel like if he really wanted to be playing out side of the nfl he would’ve been. I feel like the league is going away from big busts like manziel. Guys like that bust for a big reason and aren’t gonna fix it here if they aren’t willing to fix it for many millions a year down in the nfl. Seems like we always go for those fringe nfl guys though. Not the mid range pick guys who age out of opportunities. -

Such a joke. how long since he played? Must be 6 Or 7 years. I’d take the shot if I was looking for a qb and desperate. But a guy his age and time out adjusting to the cfl is more for a bad team. -
The crowd alone would make me want to have Kelly in. He needs seasoning This far our is beyond ridiculous

Yeah. I honestly don’t know how much of a draw she is but I assume pretty big. Still I miss better cultural Canadian picks that we saw in the early 2ks. I’d have a band like the headstones in all the time. Have we passed the dead line yet? Hasn’t been an active mid season stretch. -
Hamilton coming up and beating Toronto in the east would have them and their fans going mad. Wpg mtl has never happened in a gc iirc.

Crappy underwood for the half time show at the gc. I get that she’s popular, but I am soo tired of being force feed country by the cfl. -

I wouldn’t swap Cole due to his teams play. I’d sit Clements. also add kick schmekle to the curb. I’d swap burtenshaw for him and dress Kelly. I’d also sit Parker for blackmon. I’d consider Agudosi as a da for teams and offensive use. I’d do that if we used another guy to return rather than Blackmon. I’d also sit Bennett if basically any injured ni was actually good to go. -

Don’t think so. We were super reliant on medlock and that was his toughest year here. we really struggled to perform up to expectations in the play offs before 19. I don’t think that team finds a way to win it all. -
Imagine if Kelly gets banged up in this game? The 17 argos fans in Toronto would be livid! Man dukes has thrown 15 passes in the cfl. Dru brown has thrown 129, Poopkup has attempted 607. Collaros ofc has 2137. Kelly has 370. Harris has 164 Carries as an Argo. Boy I’d be concerned about experience among the Argo QBs.

It illustrates what I said about the 90s and early 2ks lol. The Argos attendance of 2-3k last year couldn't go significantly down. Again, you’re wrong. (Is that better?) pinball hasn’t been un involved with the Argos at any point since he retired. Holding what must be the longest continual employement in the cfl today being an Argo in one form or another since 1989. he coached sporadically between 2000 and 2007 while also serving on and off as club president gm and ceo at different times while just being ceo and gm in 2008. 09-2019 he was the vice chairman of the board. 19 forward he was the gm again. Maybe check his write up on the Argos site or wiki or the cfl lol. Instead of lulu.com and a book about rocket Ishmail. No, it isn’t. Pinball is entirely responsible for Dinwiddie. -

Pretty awesome get. Reminds me a lot of Willy. this is always the rub. But if mos doesn’t manage the roster better starting this week we are in for a bitter disappointment at year end. -
Bc is a huge game too, they have crapskatchewan and we have the same record. Ssk us ham cal vs tor bc and the elk who are suddenly on a heater. We get a bye then they have one in the last week. If we lose vs tor the wf will likely be wrapped up before the last game of the year. Unless bc really craps the bed. Losing back to back games this late in the season would also be a huge step back at the worst time.

This is the biggest game of the year. After a tough loss and a bye, at home in front of a sell out crowd vs the team that dethroned the bombers last year and the no1 team in the league. This will be the biggest indicator game for us. We should come out fast and hard while the Argos have every reason to be soft. We also still have the wf on the line. Lots of keys to success here. We gotta get consistent pressure on Kelly and with 5 or less rushers. We have to make him pay to stand in the pocket and make him uncomfortable. But we can’t sell out blitzes all the time and give him easy first down passes. The key to this is going to be dressing extra imp dl. Toronto loves to run outside/wide zone. The key step stopping their run isn’t as much going to be dl, it’s going to be about kyrie and biggie not getting washed out and filling the off tackle gap getting off blocks etc. Or dbs needs to do a better job of not selling out for picks (especially Houston) and hits (especially ba) or biting on fakes. We also need to get back to the gang tackling that made our secondary formidable. We have to protect Zach, and not get deep ball punch drunk. Gotta take what the D gives us, and pound the rock. Kick cover has sucked this year to put it lightly. We need to get back to our regular cover scheme, and stay lane disciplined.

That’s factually inaccurate. The Argos had more good years than bad attendance wise in the 90s with a lul post flutie and a 2000s bounce back. The 93-95 argos especially struggled to compete with the jays post back to back ships. The late 90s post flutie era did the same when the raptors came to town. the only thing that’s gotten better in the to market in 5 years is how good the Argos are at lying about attendance. mlse didn’t do any thing management wise. Pinball was running it and changed positions as he had in the past depending on his ability to devote time to the team. He put dinwiddie in place and they built this team. That’s got nothing to do with mlse. Mlse came into a team that was consistently hosting a home play off game every other year and they won 4 games in back to back years. They have a team that should be a contender now. Last year was a surprise win and this is the first year of them being a serious contender. -

You’re right, but they do leverage it. Especially in sports. -
That’s what modern defences are designed to do. It used to be about showing one thing pre snap and another post snap. Forcing two reads to be accurate and track the change. Now it’s even post snap with asymmetrical coverage. It’s not one guy covering one guy or even covering one area any more. It’s 4 guys sharing the coverage on one side of the field. And that can change from 4 to 5 to 3, to one of those guys playing man and the rest playing zone, or rotating guys to the inside or over the top to take away different angles. The WRs are reading the defence to adjust patterns and the coverage is reading the patterns to adjust their coverage. If the play gets rushed or it’s a fast timing play and the coverage call is lucky or really smart you get a play that makes a qb or oc look real stupid and a db or dc look brilliant. And vice versa. Zach had a pick Vs Hamilton like that.
