How can you say it was a below hutch standard performance and in the next breath say on 2 goals he had absolutely zero chance on? You are contradicting yourself. He made a lot of good stops I thinks Pav would have let in. Also there is controversy over the third minny goal...lots saying it didn't go in... Bunch of talk about nothing, imo. In this day and age, there's a 99.9% chance the right call is made regarding a situation like that.

He was strong *within his role* while he was here.

I think you should just automatically lose your job when you get called out prior to a game and then still give up 3 touchdowns to the guy who called you out.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Indeed O'Shea's comments during the Etcheverry departure news conf suggest Drew Willy will be on a short leash.Huh? I assume you're joking.Me too.. I have a very hard time believing that we are even remotely considering moving on from Willy or short leashing the guy..And the fact that I watched the entire press conference and O'Shea didn't allude to Willy being on a short leash at all. What O'Shea said between 5 mins 30 and 6 mins 20 in that news conf is hardly a ringing endorsement of Bellefueille or Drew Willy. I just re-watched that part and I don't see how that could be interpteted as Willy being on a short leash. "I think the biggest issue is trying to find a defensive coordinator and how that affects the other staff members" "We started something with Drew Willy" "To be fair to Drew, if you keep changing coordinators on a quarterback, you can set him back" "We found a good young quarterback" "It's my preference to keep going" Seems pretty clear to me. Drew is obviously in the doghouse. You missed the part at 6 mins 3 secs where O'Shea quickly transitions away from endorsing just Drew Willy and reminds everyone that the Bombers have a stable of 4 good young QBs - as he puts it. And if you think about what he says regarding the OC position, he's actually saying if we had more experienced QBs then someone other than MB would be a viable option as OC. He's saying that it's not that MB is a great OC, just that bringing in a new system out would set back the development of the QBs. Obviously management talked about the option of a new OC. And what part of any of that is an indictment of Drew Willy?

It's funny that you mention this because I was thinking about this the other day. In my opinion, it's not the corner fade routes that need to go. It's that they really should not have had Romby Bryant being the one to run the majority of them.

There's a lot of talent in the WWE right now but Vince McMahon won't get out of his own way. It's hard to even determine the quality of writers they have for Monday Night Raw right now because by all accounts, Vince basically does their job for them. I don't watch Raw beyond some casual interest I may have ... I'll keep the channel on if Rollins, Ambrose or a handful of others are on the screen. But I've watched the NXT product and not only is the talent a collection of some of the best in the world (KENTA, Devitt, Steen, Generico, Pac ... that's enough right there to catch my interest) but the writing and production is incredibly on point as well.

you sure about that? seems like a heavy favorite to me.

Can you imagine the change in philosophy if we hired Claybrooks? He turned Shawn Lemon into a viable pass rusher for god sakes.

Very interested to see how this unfolds.

Is that 46% TDs or just scoring in general?... I hope the former Touchdowns. RZ percentage isn't broken out very specific, it's basically touchdowns or everything else.

Bombers were 46% in the red zone this year, 7th in the league but there's like 4 or 5 teams all clumped together within a couple percentage points. Hamilton and Ottawa were markedly the weakest RZ offenses all year.

Played with Maurice in Toronto and Carolina, no doubt this is the guy Maurice wanted

Shudders. Posts like this make me wonder if some folks just will never be happy around here.

I love seeing Kane troll the **** out of trigger happy media and fans. It's hilarious.

or that we are. Just saying

The play calling frustrated me at times. The schemes needed work. But to be quite honest, swap out Bryant for a competent receiver, Grigsby for Cotton and even a minor upgrade on the offensive line and I think this offense can be successful.

You're right. They should hire Doublezero.

I think it's funny that the media is latching onto those comments about player personnel as if we have a gang of misfits running around out there that the new coordinator is going to have to "deal with"

Just in case anyone was curious, there was a meeting in Winnipeg recently that Devone Claybrooks attended.
