Aways liked Higgins better as GM as opposed to coach. However, when your best pure passer is Alex Brink..... In related news, the Higg threw Smith right under the bus, in Montreal media, today.....

Ottawa at Winnipeg If you wanted to consider a weekend as a season....then Ottawa might be the 2nd best team in the East, at least. For whatever that is worth. Ottawa O has some potential...the rest is a mystery. Bombers appear to have made big strides in QB and Coaching. Secondary, OL, RB, and receiving corps have made strides as well. A loss to Ottawa would be a giant setback.....butf the Blue D holds their form, from last week, and contains Burris, all should be well. Bigger crowd at home will help jump start the Bombers to 2-0. Take Bombers by 10. BC at Montreal Glenn struggled with picks, last week ....but BC generaly has the organization and coaching to make the required incremental improvements. The Als O right now...is a mess.....fired first OC before season started....Smith is shaky at QB, players are sulking on the bench, along with some questionable coaching schemes. Higgins just threw T. Smith under the bus, in the Montreal Gazette. Best pure passer on roster is probably Alex Brink. Popp might be coaching this crew (yet again) sooner than later. Take BC, even on road... by 10. Hamilton at Edmonton Speaking of mess....Ticats game against Sask, last week. Austin does not believe in running the ball. He should reconsider, or at least design an moving pocket O which enables Zac C. to get to the hashmarks, with throw/run option. In practice this may not be easy, as Cats may have the worst OL in the league. The traditional lack of discipline (17 P) doesn't help, and they have holes on D. Edmonton is improving and playing with some gusto. Take another West on road...by 7. Sask at Toronto Argos are not as bad as they looked in the Peg......but just don't like the match up between inexperienced Argo D....and Sask's best OL/QB combination in league. Ricardo will have to generate plenty of O, to keep Toronto in this one. If Argos struggle with penalties/turnovers again, or RR can't get it going....this could get ugly. Bottom line...pretty hard to pick any East team to win, at this point. Western sweep, Sask by 10

You'r right overall....but there are some degrees between "inconsistent"......and "terrible". For a 30 yr old QB Smith seems to have problems executing the most basic of fundamentals, throwing the ball. The lousy O scheme, certainly didn't help. Yes, hiring a HC who hasn't coached in 5 years and a OC with virtually no experience, whatsoever, to some extent..... does set up some players for failure. Not sold on Marsh, but we may see him, soon enough. Brink to the rescue!
-
We have some "perceived depth" on the OL, and better coaching/teaching on staff - but it is still a work in progress. We don't have enough proven (so far) assets to start dealing any OL, yet.....
-
Montreal is finally finding out what we already knew.......life is tough without a frontline quarterback.
-
...and who gets some credit from the coach. Part of the deal is encouraging this kind of attitude....and repressing some other kinds. Our last number of coaches couldn't seem to get behind this concept, or impose their will to ensure it.
-
ZC has some pretty funky mechanics....which were amplified by the Riders pressure.....
-
Why would one really need an exclamation point..... on the phrase "Boltus released"? Guy gave ham and eggs, a bad name.....
-
Well despite the picks...Glenn will get the shot, next week...... His backups are a couple of fellas named John Beck and Danny Partridge
-
Well, ALs offense has gone from AC....to DC. ....or might it be BC?
-
Cheap shot, alright.....just forearmed Cornish right upside the head......
-
Bombers add Riders cut DB Troy Stoudermire

This means, of course....that Aaron Woods will break out, next week.... -
Watching the Bombers completely jump all over somebody early.....was kinda Twilight Zonish......
-
No knee to close out a half time Throwing ball into all areas of the field Balanced playcalling Throwing the ball, when deep in our own end Fake punt It just feels different......

Tim Burke's Defence ... where have we seen this before?
do or die replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Well Burke would take a little less heat round here.....if he could just finally stop already...... with that ole concened spectator/innocent victim stuff. But alas, it appears he cannot...... Meanwhile.....I simply refuse to take anything back I have said about him as a HC.....or for that matter, anything about Kelly, Lapo, Dr. Jeff, Mr Rodgers, etc. -
As a bonus. ....Nic's blocking.....
-
Nice depth....
-
Well, the gin went down....the O+S went up.... Night all...
-
Another thing I like....is how he will use his size...and just slightly move to one side or other, to improve his passing lane, while looking downfield all the while...
-
The Bombers may have closed the great divide - between them and the rest of the league (coaching and QB), somewhat.....already.

Checklist for 48th Season opener: Ticket, er.. card Rain gear Field glasses Rose colored glasses Palliative Jaundiced eye Wooden leg Churning gut Happy feet Bemused partner at home Currently jumping up and down.......at my workdesk....garnering some pretty funny looks.... Ps....for the very small but somewhat devoted fanbase.....Odds and Sods will make its apperance, later

Pass rush is the great equalizer......any quality veteran QB (like Ricardo) will carve you up.....if he can simply walk through his progressions/options, back there......
-
Well, some coaches can take less.....and make even less out of it.....
