Willy, Adams, Cotton, Gibson all placed on 6 game.

Big assumption there is that we have 4 healthy import receivers who are better than the NI's. We don't. Also the "starting" 8 NI's doesn't limit how they use the imports at all.Well if we don't dress the import cause we are going to play 8 can then I'm not sure you understand the argument.Last week we were going to go with 4 imports when Moore was gonna dress but instead of dressing jhomo Gordon when Moore couldn't play we went back to 3 imp Rev 2 Cnd get it?BTW if you think dressing jfg over veltung is the way to go not much more I can say to ya really.The Bombers are playing the maximum number of imports allowed. Starting 8 Canadians doesn't change that. I don't prefer JFG to Veltung, but I prefer him to Jhomo Gordon, who is a project to put it mildly. Having Jhomo Gordon on the roster last week wouldn't have made a lick of difference. I feel bad for you if you truly are just judging CFL players by their passports. Gordon was terrible in both preseason games. Hopefully he's learned how to run his routes and read the defense to get open and on the same page as his QB in the last couple months.Well MOS is playing Jhomo instead of going with Jfg and Kohler as starters with another can as a backup.So your liking Jfg over jhomo is not seen by the Blue coaches.I like Jfg but his speed doesn't scare anyone. Feoli-Gudino and Kohlert are in the exact same positions they were last week. The depth chart is on page 1 of this thread. Gordon is in for Adams.

Or Lavarias and Hebert are healthy and better football players right now. Sam being cut is very likely, he was horrible last week.

To be fair, Willy has been guilty of this in the past as well. Guys with little mobility run into those problems just as often. I've never seen Willy bail out of a perfect pocket like I've seen Cato do a half dozen times already in this game.

Cato showing the perils of a guy who can't or won't do much from the pocket. Perfect pass pro and he runs into a sack.

If Veltung is actually healthy, Gordon better be excellent. Veltung has been such a reliable target for the QB's.

Actually our DL has been excellent for the last month, all without Peach, a couple without Turner. It was terrible with them.

Pass interference in general is so poorly applied, inconsistent. They need to make it really simple. If a DB is not playing the ball, has no idea where the ball is, facing the other direction, any contact needs to be flagged. If a DB is playing the ball, some contact should be allowed with consideration to timing of the arrival of the pass. Obviously it's never going to be purely black and white, but they need to move the needle in that direction.

Interesting that Glen Johnson admitted today that in the Montreal game the Sutton TD should not have been called a TD as the ball didn't cross the plane. Play was reviewed, was a scoring play, still couldn't get it right. Also think it was one the line judge on the field didn't quite see as he was scrambling to not get hit and just called a TD so they would review it. Time to take the "undisputable evidence" piece out of the reviews and just make the right call? Probably make the officials on the field do their jobs in a way that relies less on having the safety net of replay too.

If that's the case, how bad is Goossen that he can't replace a guy with a broken thumb who was basically letting DT's take free runs at Willy?

In terms of reliability for a young QB, I'd take Feoli-Gudino over Jhomo Gordon 10 times out of 10.

The big appeal of Pembina bars was how cheap they were. I was always there for $.25 draft nights. It was perfect for university students. Fixed prices put an end to that. Yeah, and the competition. LId, Monty's, Wise Guys, Beach(Scandals), Coyotes, Pemby. An enormous amount of people at bars on Pembina on the weekends. And they'd shift based off a $0.25 price change. If we had a friday dying, we could lower price a quarter and boom, we were packed. The minimum pricing thing was a scam. Before minimum pricing, people would go to the bar at 7:00 because it was so cheap. After minimum pricing, people didnt go out til 10 because it was cheaper to pick up a case or mickey from the LC and pre-drink at home. And that was the point of minimum pricing. No one drank less. There were not less people getting black out drunk. That kid died because of a failure on the part of himself, his friends and the bar. We used to have $0.75 shooters, $1 shots. On weekends when prices were higher we'd still have "Saturator Saturdays" with triples for $3. It was mostly a liability issue for the people holding the license and the MLCC. I can't think of a place in Canada I've traveled in recent years that doesn't have those minimums now, even Alberta. We used to go to Banff every year and each night there was a different special at a different bar, quarter drafts, dollar highballs. Not anymore.

Both BS. Our D has actually been somewhat dominant since Collins went into the lineup. Not enthused to see all the guys who made up an extremely mediocre DL back in the lineup together.

He's played what, 4 games? And cost his team 2 TD's on turnovers that were 100% on him, plus a single that should have never happened, then wasted 10 seconds and lost yards in one point game. That's far too many huge negative plays from a returner. If he's going to cost the team points, it doesn't really matter if he has a couple good plays.

Sucks that their only practice this week was interrupted by weather. Hopefully the mental reps work for Marve.

Mostly this, basically work your way towards the QB as a group, stay in your rush lane. I've seen teams put their DT's out wide and quicker guys inside against QB's who like to throw outside the pocket, the Bombers D this season has done that vs Collaros and Lulay. Also will likely see a lot more 3-4 man rush with a couple guys spying and blitzing/dropping into zone on a delay.

And really, Calgary has gone through about 20 DL in the last 5 years and they've all been dominant. Ditto Edmonton, Hamilton. Toronto's brought in several good ones. We can't even find one guy who's good at getting after quarterbacks consistently, even if that's all he can do like an Odell Willis. Westerman is doing OK, but we have no one who gets into the pocket, his sacks are motor sacks mostly out of the pocket, most on Collaros. Gibson has looked good but apparently can't last 2 games in a row.

He's been with BC the last two years, demoted to receivers coach from OC.

It is unfortunate Marve is forced to work within an archaic offence that is designed for a 3-step-drop pocket passer. Hopefully Marcel tweaks the playbook to Marve's strengths, actually its similar to what Mike Riley faces in re-tooling things at Nebraska O: http://hailvarsity.com/news/hot-reads-the-past-present-future-of-dual-threat-qbs/2015/02/ Bellefeuille prefers mobile QB's, there's no doubt about that. He spent 3 seasons trying to replace Kevin Glenn with Quinton Porter, they started 09 with Porter starting over Glenn. Porter could never take the reins, but every year Bellefeuille was head coach in Hamilton he gave Porter more opportunities than he deserved to win the job. The archaic offence stuff is getting a little stupid too. Let's get at least 80% of our offensive line looking like they belong in the CFL. There's no play call that's going to compensate for a centre and guard being completely useless on any given snap.

I hope we see the dink and dunk stuff because that means he can read a defense and take what's available, not force the ball into danger and try to do too much, often leads to turnovers and 2 & outs. 1st down yardage will be huge.

The end should always hold the edge on an option or zone read, force the play inside to where there are more players to finish the play. Just tugs at the instinct to chase the ball.

Good call. He worked well with Marve in pre-season too. Wonder who will end up playing the boundary WR. Could be like last season where Moore, Denmark and Kohlert all took turns there. Key spot for a guy like Marve who will be on the move.

Walters is on the clock IMO. The level of import talent on this team is poor relative to the rest of the league, and we don't have depth at positions that shouldn't be hard to fill like receiver and defensive line.
