If the turn overs dried up, and we dont improve red zone offense yes we could. This D has out performed the traditional bend but dont break. Some teams have maintained that style. Namely TO. Im not a fan of it. But it can do the job. I do expect our turn overs to drop off next year. But we have some STUD imp wr talent, and a beast of an OL. Next year we will need the O to be a driving force in our wins. Cant play to not lose the game. Its not pure luck, all the turn overs. We have tons of play makers. Guys who are adept at baiting and gambling. Thats not going to disappear, but it very likely wont continue at the same pace. Yeah, untill this franchise is a consistent winner its gonna have that question looming. No matter what happens now expectations will be very high next year. Im not sure mos will get it done. And think plop is ripe for a return to TSN.

7-2 vs 1 game under .500. Plus the game would be in the dome. That said with a grey cup route that leads through calgary, an easy route is none existent in the west. If we are gonna be able to beat calgary or put up a real fight, we will be more then good enough to beat bc at home.

Still reminds me of the 2000 team more. Obviously its had more success. Iirc we needed help that year in the last week to get into the play offs. Kinda like we are hoping for now.

think he was banged up but wanted to keep playing. Using your star rb to run out the clock in meaningless minutes to pad his stats can be dangerous. Ever see the Wilis mcgahee injury? Hes gonna get the extension. Unless some crazy fringe situation like TO fires milano and offers him the job. Despite the win streak ive been concerned with his decision making for a while. He continually makes poor roster choices. Seldom putting the best roster on the field. Falls in love with "His" guys despite poor play. weve seen multiple co-ordinators and the same passive systems. We see DI's miss managed, we see poor starts, poor focus, and poor effort on a regular basis. We didnt have 1 game where we played start to finish. Idk if we even played 3/4 of a game. Tons of penalties, and the same ones over and over. We see players dramatically under perform from previous situations. He makes excuses and passes pure BS like they are pro's of course they play hard the whole time. But hes a part of our turn around. we fell back arsewards into 11-7. This team could have easily been a 13+ win team. Weve stuck with him through all the thin now we are going into the play offs, and next year will be going into the season with the expectation of repeating and improving. Thats gonna show how good of a coach he is. Hes earned the chance to improve. This is the best case scenario when you scoop a CORD with limited coaching experience. Especially never having been a HC at any level. Next years TC will really give a great view of how he is. hes going to have tons of talent. All these young guys being a year older. Additions we make, especially with our draft position. I hope he takes the next step and develops into an elite coach. Id be liying if i said i wasnt worried about it though. Plus im not sure any elite coach will be available. Short of that it wouldnt be worth making a move. Thats for sure. The OL wasnt horrible, but it sure wasnt as good as it was with chungh and bond.

You dont think its trash time against a team with half there starters and players off the game day roster whose under .500? The whole game ott treated it like pre season. Playing their 4th string qb most of the game. Taking gambles because why not, despite being the most passive team in the league when it comes to taking chances? ott had nothing to gain and treated the game as such. Mean while the bombers struggled against ott depth players and did nothing for long periods of time. Teams up by 3+ scores in a game that matters in the standings during the 4th quarter have more to lose then ott and play more agressive schemes and mostly if not all starters. Half the team we played wont be on the roster for the play offs. They didnt use the no1 qb, the no 2 qb and pulled the no 3 in the first quarter. Not due to play either. And let a kid stay in the game with 3 higher qbs on the roster play while he struggled to complete 40% of his passes, threw ducks all over the field and tried to give us the ball.

Both but mainly on lapo. We criminally under used harris all year. He was running well all game and we just stopped handing him the ball for almost a half of football. Cant blame mos too much for not wanting harris to get banged up more. He was allready a lil bit banged up and was hurt earlier this year.

4 fgs in the red zone 2 in the 10 will do that. He held onto the ball too long. Harris and adams made up for a huge hunk of his passing numbers. Too many low and wide passes. He did certainly come on in the late 3rd and early 4th. though isnt that what you call "trash time"? playing the 3rd and 4th stringers late in the game against a sub .500 team? He did play through a ton of hard hits 2 late hits that should have been penalties. The pick wasnt on him, it was on kohlert. Not a great pass but shouldnt have been a pick. Over all not far off being on the 3 stars, but not a strong game by any means. If he plays the same quality game against calgary, or bc we are toast.

yeah. At one point in the 3rd Q he had 6 carries and the rest of our combined rushes were like 4 or 5. Only 20 carries once this year. Averaged 12.5 per game but combined for over 1500 yards from the line.

1 Harris. 10 carries for 60 yards, 3 catches for 82. 2 medlock, 4/4 and a new cfl record. 3 darvin adams 6-100 2 tds. The prime target most of the game and made some big plays. HH Was torn on this one between Dressler who got his 1k yards rushing. But im going with mcduffie making up for his fumble with a return TD and NO FLAGS!

They certainly have to play hard and execute. So far doesnt look soo good

top 2-3 pick at worst ( I think 2nd at worst? idk) a starting young DB who could turn into a star for a QB who probably ill be going into his last year next year. One of the most one sided deals in recent history. No qbs are under contract for next year. I wouldnt be surprised to see heavy turn over at the qb position. I wouldnt be surprised to see only one of bennet or davis back but both could be gone. Dont think glenn will be back either. I could see us going after another teams back up as a guy to come in and push / back up. Thats the position of greatest interest imop in the off season.

Ideally we beat the tar out of the RBs in the first half and get a big enough lead to rest starters in the 2nd half and Give depth guys starter snaps. This game feels strange. It feels like a must win going into the play offs, coming off the last weeks game, and with a shot at a home play off game. On the other hand facing back up qbs invokes many terrible memories from the past of getting torn up by then no bodies who become some one against us. Crossing over seems almost as alluring as hosting a home play off game, especially with this years home performance/crowds. Really just want us not to S&^% the bed tnite.

nice! Im a big fan of the comic too and cumberbatch. hands down the best part of the DCCU so far.

Dr.strange looks really good i cant wait to watch it.

If that was true, sask should have been a lot better. mtl should have been better before going young at qb, ham should be in the basement, and edm should be 2nd in the league not 4th. I think that pretty much nails it.

I wonder why if he was actually good, he didnt get another look else where. Not surprised the als are a gong show behind the scenes. I wonder if he was black listed for the leak and if he actually did it.

Mhm equally high level dbag / C word. Prolly the last guy in the league i want on the bombers, and im not normally one to say pass on talent for being a head case.

interesting. 1 left 1 week i guess. i would assume no padded practices during the bye weeks makes sense. actually we do have a no pads left apparently. its not that it isnt allowed its limited, we arent at the limit. lol inorite? I remember back in the day the team struggled bad for a couple games and richie had em out doing 2 days mid season.

QFT I dont know any one that likes them. The only good thing about ESPN is PTI.

No but there is some thing to it. There may be an ice dragon / dragon frozen in the wall, and there is a horn that would bring down the wall. Its murky as to which side the dragon would be on though.

say what? the CBA has it that all practices are pads off? Im not by any means up on the cba etc but that doesnt sound at all right. Besides the fact it wouldnt be note worthy that we had a pads off practice this week if it was the norm. Lots of ways old school coaches used to punish guys. Wind sprints in bad weather, or just wind sprints for a long period of time. Gauntlet runs that never seem to end, returning to 2 a day practices (i suspect that isnt allowed mid season any more) cancelled days off, meetings that peel the paint off the walls etc. But to be honest the worst thing they could do to punish guys is make them watch the game a few more times. Dont think punishment is whats needed though. Gotta re sharpen the team, re focus, and re motivate em. Certainly do. Its why nichols and the starters have to start the last game. Cant rest em unless hurt. Its like a preseason game now. Keep the guys sharp and show them they are your guys. Theres a point in the game where you gotta protect him though, especially if hes getting hit like nichols was late in the game. 4th quarter should have been the hook.

no joke. Never makes good use of his DI, same trick plays, same wr toss, running game is killing it so lets stop that etc. nichols is struggling a lot ol isnt as good as its been lets try hammering away the same stuff. Instead of rolling him out giving him some easy plays to build on etc. I dont think any one gets fired in the off season, but plop is the no1 guy id like to see gone between players and coaches. Say him try a couple times, dude is as high energy an OLmen as weve had in years. Love it. The team looked like some one kicked there dog after that first pick though.

Certainly one of the least liked qbs in recent memory. Him and casey printers. Gotta hand it to him though he still has game left even at a zillion years old.

That off side was a horribly blown class. The pass was poor and he made it close. He looked good. You dont think harris looked good? The line aside from neufie was good too. We shouldnt burn 2 di's on returners. Have fogg do both return jobs, and carry gurley. Di smith since there seems no chance we scratch him.

should be, but a NI ol whose ever had a pulse can keep getting contracts till the body falls 100% a part. I sure hope this is the last weve seen of him in blue.
