Booch

based on our last few rosters.....coaching is my only concern....and how we use said roster We shat the bed all year and neither off the 2 west teams in the WSF could over take us....big game at home...neither scare me....may put up a decent game but we should prevail....we need to come out fast..smart and clean....avoid any injuries and we should be in B.C that is huge...can't be understated the win and your in aspect with securing the WF

if we are properly prepared....and coached.....and apt to make the adjustments on the fly...we should come away with the Dub

best fan base tho...bar none...yeah right!!....nothing beats a jam packed Bomber home game for atmosphere and intensity....and none looks better on T.V as well And talking to players...playing here the crowd noise is a different beast they claim....the way the seating is...the sound is right on you, and you literally feel it and it is pretty ominous and intimidating.....kudo's to our crowd Lot of players I know who have played in the NFL and for big NCAA schools say the noise and atmosphere rivals many places down south

yup...that one upper deck for most games was maybe a quarter filled

curious what kind of jam packed it's gonna be for the WSF And for this so-called great fanbase...travels well...yadda yadda yadda...that attendance for a crucial last game that had huge implications was brutal....and on a nice day to boot.....they travel sowell yet they cant drag their toothless masses to that craphole city?....and they don't travel well to road games...those are escapees and deserters

If happy good Vaj shows up...I see that...Sask secondary is suspect and bad, even with Mr. MODP..MOP....and really nobody in the Sask receiving corp screams dangerous.....and you have Harris at the helm....guy will wilt and fade...always does, so if it gets into some kind of shoot out...I dont see Sask keeping pace with a dialed in Vaj....just hope they both slap the crap outta each other and come in beat up and tired...tho don't think it gonna matter

yeah.....unless we come out with an epic brain fart game...I cannot see either team taking us out...BC is flawed, and we have their number Sask....secondary sucks...they still undisciplined and Harris is not a big game QB...and let him try and nickel and dime his way all game. I also expect Younger to have a tweak/twist that we been sitting on....but home game...in Nov....and it a WF....the stadium atmosphere alone will be ominous and i a huge advantage

strength vs attempts to stop.....impose your will

Yup...alot of people don't realize how good Parker is

Well that would be the wise thing

Yeah not sure what he hurt...like Lawson...both seem fine...but are apparently injured...neither were ever seen in any cast...boot...sling...nothing

We seem to be more apt to doing the Rip and tear...I never liked that mindset The lack of practices...padded...and disregard of technique is reason for the piss poor tackling...even tho they pros...u still need the reps

Part of our tackling issue is the stupid tendency of instead of putting a guy down and just tackling him at point of contact we try and pull and rip the ball out...as the pile/scrum just keeps advancing. That and we have guys in second level who instead of wrapping up and tackling...are torpedoeing and just diving at lower body trying to knock feet out from under them ...that needs to be coached out of them Luckily we have Cole..Griffin..Jones now...Nichols...who actually tackle...and where we miss Jamal Parker who was probably our best pure tackler on the team...and luckily saved our bacon taking Rhymes out a few yrs back when Kramdi and Holm whiffed

Was typical cold weather fall..playoff football...yet we failed to.play that on offence with our bread and butter...and a lineup geared to ground and pound against 2nd worst run defence...I ask...why??

yup....we've shown what kind of team we can be this yr....warts and all.....good...and bad.....which team shows up for the WF...thats the big question....Hopefully all this reliance and insistence of hanging on to grizzled vets...some that should have been pooched 2 yrs ago already pays off...and hopefully we have something cooked up scheme wise we been sitting on all yr as for most part...especially on offence been less than inspiring true...that being said...that was the stupidest decision....yet not shocking to have made to kick a FG there....If we made it....would have gave MTL a lil over a minute to get into field goal range...and kick winner and way we were playig on defence....they would have. We got lucky lucky lucky how it panned out....but we really should have went for it....did a fake punt or something for first time in eons, or even some kind of onside pooched punt to try and get ball back....something creative and with guts Kicking a long range fg...in swirling wins....when he was already short on a shorter kick...plain dumb

hate the aspect of the NFL that if a team gets the ball...with a lead with 2 mins...plus or minus left the game is essentially over....and just a bunch of back slapping...hand shaking...standing around...where in the CFL there can be at times 2...3 changes of possessions in that time...multiple scores and games pulled out of the fire for the losing team...at that moment

yup....Luck be a lady many a win for us....much to the denial around here....but win is a win....but the way we been getting a lot...isn't s recipe for success consistently....and when it really matters when a team we are playing is well coached...well prepared...and hungry....thankfully due to injury....we have a lot of hungry guys....if not for injury we would have a full set of entitled feeling players who figure they just need to show up....

but we also know what the oline and BO morph into in the cold november rain....hopefully Buck remembers Plus that crazy crowd affecting things...we saw it time and time again, and in less than ideal weather....I like our odds....if tho and only if our coaches have this team prepared....coached up.....like legit coached and not left to their own devices and self policing....and we utilize our weapons and pieces effectively I think our only fear of losing is if our coaching fails us....again

Looks like we been saving the fancy good plays all yr Our schemes...usage...just general offensive philosophy other than we are running the ball down someone's gullet has been.**** all yr Defensively what we were doing mid season was working well...teams adjusting now and are at times having their way with us...and now we need to adjust...and also our use of players on defence in a particular area is also pathetic...minor adjustments and we roll...are we.gonnaake them tho...we rely and default to an old comfort zone be it players or game plan whether it working or not....time to.coach..apparently we have the best staff in the league...or so I been told...but we been beat by out coaching when it's matters...time.to Buck the trend

And he nailed it with a bad snap...

we got robbed on that other T.O game as well on the pick 6....also Wilson had clearly broke the plane on that QB sneak as well.....The universe just waited to literally the last second of the season to right itself and place us where we rightfully should have been......I still can't believe what happened there, and the magnitude and the timing....bizzare I fully expected us to take first again this season at the start of the yr...how we got there tho was not what I thought tho I did expect some of the questionable things we did/do to be lingering around and cause us issues...and it did tenfold! Hopefully this "event" has did something to reset this team now and we leave all the craziness of what was the season in the rear view....and from top to bottom we learned a big lesson and with the resolve this team has shown through adversity it serves them well in the WF and hopefully the Grey Cup. Like i said before...got be lucky to be good, and yes we have won despite a lot of things....and if yesterday wasn't a clear and finite example of that which encapsulated this then I don't know what is, and hopefully we finally put it all to bed and we roll now.....we should never have won that game...or secured first with a win and your in game ...at home. We can't blow it and waste this now....we do...I can see another drought of epic proportions looming

Dare to dream..is he signed thru 2025?

I'm not overly confident....for reasons mentioned again and again We don't seem to learn real fast and it's an alarming trait...if our coaches can pull heads outta arse....then we should be oksy....we have failed 2 seasons in a row due to coaching....lets not make it 3

thats good as most have no teeth and ones who do prob need to back off with the sugars

based on roster...we should never see any until Lawson returns @DTonOB do you know or can yu find out how many starting nationals we declare on each side of the ball for a game...
