Good lord. Calgary waiting on that blitz.
-
Maver really ****** himself there by coming so far upfield.
-
Grant went pretty much straight upfield there, one move and gone.
-
Hesitation costs us a 3rd and short to continue the drive.
-
No flag for finishing that tackle well out of bounds? Hope they let us have one of those too.

Matthews needs to get that yard.

Pregame talk: Patriots North come to town
JuranBoldenRules replied to White Out's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Will be interesting to see who comes on the roster if Jeffcoat goes out. We'd have an open import spot. Could be an extra DB, maybe LB. Have Maston (added to active already), Dale Warren and Korey Jones. We don't have an import DL around. -

Well the points didn't come from his arm, they came from Harris and the OL whipping the Argos LB's. Nichols threw one completion in the ENTIRE GAME that travelled more than 12 yards vertically down the field. Pick any one of Brian Brohm, Robert Marve, Max Hall, Justin Goltz, Joey Elliott...that's the kind of thing we'd be talking about after they started a game. -

That was a pretty poor attempt at Prevent. Bighill and Wilson were blitzing on like 3 out of 4 plays. -
Game Day Thread- Bombers at Arblows
JuranBoldenRules replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You also need to call better plays to stay on the field! -
OL was not good vs Hamilton, but was fine against Toronto. Nichols did not see a lot of heat, had tons of time and was cycling through his reads then dumping off to Harris. Really issue comes down to Toronto playing quarters coverage and taking away deep shots, Bombers have very little intermediate passing game with lack of trust in Nichols to hit tight windows, throw behinds and other throws that potentially put ball in harms way if slight bit inaccurate. That intermediate passing game is really important in having a balanced offense, if it's not there very easy to defend passing game in general. Bombers have the receivers/backs to do damn near everything, you've got Lawler, Wolitarsky, Matthews who are BIG targets. You've got Whitehead and Demski who bring a lot of speed and YAC potential once they have the ball, you've got Petermann who can do everything but is especially reliable in the middle and also a guy who tends to gain YAC, they had Rasheed Bailey dressed who looks to profile as a thicker Denmark type of steady guy. If a QB can't make the throws to enable this offense to function pretty seamlessly I think that's a tremendous problem in isolation of the rest of the team. Lapo's excuse for not riding Harris at 20-0 was incredibly faulty and gives some insight into his mindset. Mostly it's just sickening to hear the excuses given what he has to work with. See bluebombers.com.

What separates average from great? It's the ability to make the two or three throws a game that separate winning from losing. Often this is just a matter of stringing together 2-3 first downs at a certain point in the game, regardless of earlier mistakes. Even when Nichols has been playing well he's often outdueled in this regard. Putting up a bunch of TD's in the first half is often not enough.

Harris has a problem scoring points. He's a perfect fit in Edmonton in the tradition of Ray, Maas and Reilly. -

Sure. We could have a QB making what BLM or Reilly do if we dropped say Neufeld and Matthews. It would probably be worth it. Problem is attracting those guys. I don't believe either were truly testing the market. Reilly wanted to go to BC, BLM was Calgary or NFL. -
Game Day Thread- Bombers at Arblows
JuranBoldenRules replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Lapo is an overthinker. Almost every week we come out with a tactic that works in terms of misdirection, Harris, something that's working easy, and then he shifts away from it and never goes back. -

Calgary has no shortage of weapons. Each game they've dressed 2 RB's who are excellent. They have a bunch of receivers, probably the best overall slot in the league in Eric Rogers. -

BLM lost to Ottawa at home, even though Ottawa turned the ball over like 5 times. -

Step #1 is to install a game plan with a set of plays for Streveler and give him reps in practice so this is possible. Lapo will not do this, and if Streveler gets into the game he's running that jumbo package or the plays installed for Nichols, straight drop backs that most QB's in this era really struggle with. -
Hall has one problem and that's scheming and calling blitzes. Most of them are predictable and shown pre-snap which basically renders them useless. He loves to blitz on passing downs and that usually entails blitzing 2 out of WIL/MLB/S which means the D has a level of pass rushers and a deep level of DB's on top of all routes but not attacking slants and crossers. That scheme is getting chewed up by YAC and giving up way too many 2nd down conversions the last two weeks.

CFL Players in NFL Training Camps

Yep. FG’s generally aren’t live too. There are way fewer special teams plays in a NFL game. -
Told ya...game ends on turnover.

That's PI on Loffler.
