Blue Bombers - 2024 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Booch replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
yeah...that was an interception from coverage and ability...unlike prob 4 of Milligans that were arrant throws to basically right in his chest while he was essentially covering someone else....which is another reason INT's aren't the whole story...Houston prob had 3 or 4 of those too last yr Last I can think of was when Brown had 14 and Hill had 12 in same season...1990 I think....which is just hard to wrap mind around -

Walker may be a good signing for the Stamps...he is in his prime...has a lot of experience, and likely won't need a super long time to adapt to the game up here...he's no green horn...and if a stain like Kelly can do it...a high character guy, and one with his life in order surely can. I see it as a guy who just wants to play, and put down some yrs in one spot....I hope he does well....also think he will too...can never have enough quality QB's and a guy with a winning NFL record with a couple teams, and been down there on rosters for the length he has obviously has serious upside...time will tell -

I dunno...we have had great success in just putting new guys there for quite a few yrs now, so I don't think that should be a reason not to replace a guy. Who knows as well who could be available if FA...going into our Grey Cup at home shot. I do agree tho...would love to see him at safety to see what he has there....especially if he not having to play that odd role we tried with BA before. I think his abilty to drift and close on a ball in the air would serve him way better there. We also still have Parker who has been hurt this yr with a who knows what injury, but he is still young....very athletic and was the better of the 2, and was one of the better tacklers on the squad....so be interesting to see if he gets a shot in 2025 as well The old dead weight tho.....put em out to pasture definately...we have really transformed the roster this yr, so next yr...2...3 guys will be easy -

I compare him to...we can do better, plain and simple, as he has been the weak link all yr...apparently Darby was a weak link...we moved on so next up is Holm....his fancy feet and all...why stagnate and stand pat....you have to...need to be continually getting better....that goes for any position where a guy isn't the best of the best Settling for ok....adequate...or status quo won't get you Championships...we have seen that all too apparent 2 yrs running now -

in all honesty....I hope we find someone or pick up someone in free agency to move on from Holm....He'd be great as an over the top...slide over to help in coverage safety....but yeah...run support....nope....he'd be in the tub more than on the field Moving into 2025....we definitely need to be moving on from BA...Biggie....Wilson...Thomas...Holm....even Schmeck on the defensive side.... -

he missed about 3..4 key stats where they are last...or bottom 3.... -
Yeah...he's not the best option...but we know he the Osh option...for varying reasons Gauthier in the traditional 3 LB set is a given...as we basically have nobody else..poor pr makeup there and doubt they will start Notree right outta the gate cause that's not how we do business...tho he prob wouldn't have a grasp on playbook anyway But if we have to replace 3 imports (BA..Griffin...Ayers) then one would assume Bridges for Griffen..Hallett likely for BA Still need 2 imports to fill out roster so Notree for Ayers mainly for ST..some defensive snaps..and then who? We have minimal options so the logical move would be Fox..to really shore up the defensive front to help with the missing pieces in the back 8 Many 3 and 4 combos..even some 5's with one as a Jack or dropping off with WJ/Woods/Fox/Adams/Haba/Garbutt...you would hardly need Thomas or Schmeck for rotation...really you could even only dress one of them and roster Karmoko or even Murphy in their spot for more over all depth on ST
-
We could always put Cole at safety...but I sure we will run Hallett there. If so then hopefully we add Fox for BA and have him..Adams...and Woods all rotating...with no need for excessive Jake and Schmeck I'd assume if Griffin isn't able to go it would be Bridges and I think Notree is a lock for Ayers I do hope tho we don't do something stupid and start and give majority of reps to Thomas..Gauthier..Hallett...when we already have Keamdi and Ford as locked in defacto "starters" We don't need to do that and why make your team weaker if you don't have to. No knock on Canadians but if we plan to start what could be 11...I gonna barf...let some your talent who likely have more a future here...plus upside get the reps.

If he cant go please please for the love of god please dont dress Mitchell....just because...Give Hart a shot

I think if BC was still rolling....and a force...McCinnis has right dropped off...as his team has tanked...BO has gotten better and can be argued is the reason for the turn around, and it has infected others play...he should be a slam dunk for Canadian and MOP outta the West...if he's not...its a crime....tho I am sure he will rather enjoy hoisting the Cup again tho.....but still be a crime....In a league that likes to promote their Canadians...some at naseum...to over look one 2 yrs running is a shame and I would even say a blackmark on the league -
I'd get that if the host was adding something to the content...more times than not tho she isn't and is perpetuating the stupidity...and use your real voice for gods sake...not that fake thing she using on screen

I liked him....I didnt know he got released when I saw we picked him up...but I do know he makes plays I can see him slotting in this week as he plays teams...has experience and if Ayers is out...we meed him to get game reps in the defence system...I like this pick up...and may offer more down the stretch than Ayers soley based on he's seen it...and done it before -

I wouldnt be so sure...we pissed all over 3 or 4 of the media's storylines this yr...so....payback.... He got robbed last yr...Stanley got robbed in 2021.....so wouldn't be shocked if he robbed again -
until someone else steps up and says..."we want.this game..that game....etc..etc" and show their production and telecast plans

generally if a DB is high in tackles....even knockdowns....can almost go as far as defensive plays....it indicates that they are, or their side of the field is being targeted. It's not like he is racing across the field breaking up the other HB/Corners battles...stats like have been said here are misleading, unless they are certain stats...like completion % against...Targets in red zone...TD's given up...etc....tackles are a poor sta...especially when not shown where it was....at l.o.s...5 yards past....2 yards behind...after 1st down gained.....converted 2nd and long....the list goes on...show me those stats and I will show you who are legit all-stars We track them at team, and scouting and recruitment level....Pretty sure the CFL "stats team" don't and I know our for most part brain dead "media" dont...or even think about that...they just look at 2 things...Int...tackles... Sask doesn't deserve a home game....their pityfull support the last few yrs being a good indication....BC vs SASK if played here as a neutral site would draw more than either place....for the sole fact we would boo thand razz the crap outta both teams affecting their offences... -
I think they want/ask Milt to play the clown part...I also think he tiring of it based on the last several broadcasts....As I know him and he not like that "guy" he plays on the panel. Just watch his and Sanchez's podcast for an example.....totally different, or any football related camp....appearance...charity venture...even interview he does... Not sure what the TSN Production execs are looking for, or wanting to produce but amateur comedy hour shctick...and the same ol same ol nothingness isnt what viewers want....or need for that matter
-
I was gonna say the same....
-
yeah...I caught that...when he said producer was in his ear piece telling him to not interrupt...or cut off Kate....I found that the best part of the broadcast and confirms they want her to be basically a tool and create the crap we have to ingest

yup....it does get all kinds of different feeling and reactions doesnt it?...hahaha -
lately a lot of the time now...even right after a play they don't even show the field....and aren't talking about what's going on...more times than not you have no clue a guy was injured...let alone helped off the field....heaven forbid we get any decent replays of a play/penalty/challenge....inexcusable really
-
its was...embarrassing...and sad....definitely cringe worthy Even last week with that unkown country singing kid....who effin cares...focus on the game Even the Orange shirt game...Yeah I get it...they wanna talk about it...etc..etc....well put together a nice pre-game vignette or some actual feature...not during the game while it was actually in play...as we scored a beauty of a TD....Thats just bush league...99.9% of the viewers tune in to watch the game...get some interesting stats and knowledgeable insight...some to even better understand the game....not to see Suitor ooze in his pants over a country singer...a sideline interview with anyone not related to the game being played....or any other stupid skit they do ...Do a pregame show each game with that all in it...not the garbage that Kate and Co. attempt
-
agree....and thats what Lapo brings...explains the reasoning behind certain moves/plays....and why/how they are designed Suitor add's absolutely nothing....we need more Lapo's....and Zero Suitor's....he has ran his course Play by Play guys too....Ferguson I think is already good...gettiong better and add's knowledge and unbiased play calling for most part...Neilson if paired with a Lapo or a similar guy...would do wonders for him as well...with Suitor he just gets side tracked and led into pointless babble The big issue tho is the production aspect...lame...old...recycled...and definately not at the fore front of anything...let alone cutting edge...this needs to change asap
