BigBlue

Doesn't sound like much understanding there

After all these years I have never figured out why a punt returner (Fogg) can't do just as well returning kickoffs ....

i like that we are starting 8 Nationals ... much flexibilty subbing in a yank on both side of the ball

Ed Tait: "The inability to finish will drive the coaching staff bonkers. The Bombers gave up a last-second field goal in the tie to Saskatchewan last week and held a 38-23 lead into the final minute before giving up a TD, an onside kick, another TD with nine seconds left and then a two-point convert. Winnipeg was nailed for five defensive penalties in the final 1:48 of the game – three pass interference infractions, a roughing the passer and an offside. Those five gaffes totalled 64 yards and breathed life into the Edmonton rally."

I have been totally unable to find last nights game stats listed any where let alone details on same ... not on cfl.ca tsn or BB site who keeps/posts these things Stumbled across this site: In scoring we were just above average but 3rd in the league in lowest points against per game ... just under 26 http://www.oddsshark.com/cfl/defensive-stats

I have no answers at all .... I just don't understand even a little bit

cap or no cap its been a decade .... a blind monkey typing could find better mlb's than we have brought in

yes please create the hole

I don't believe that for a second ... MLB is the general of the D and a key place to spend $%$$$ .... other teams find the dough to get the job done

I find it remarkable that with our head coach having been one of the great mlb's that has ever played in this league he can not produce a clone of himself .... We have been recruiting for this position forever and our only success has been Muamba ... and we couldn't keep him We could have had a certain all star out of Montreal this spring but stuck our nose up in the air ... don't say salary cap, say something about management's attitude towards cap management, adjustments and tradeoffs ..... schemes fit the personnel not vice versa .... you fit plans to personnel Hurl is a STer and nothing more ... never will be When in the last decade have we brought in a stud MLB? What is the real problem here? SIGH !!!

Where is a good site to find the statistical breakdown?

I don't know quite what to make of all the penalties tonight ... For a moment I thought someone had hired the zebras to help with a Vegas bet on beating the odds of both preseason games ending in a tie; that would be quite a payout but then I slapped myself in the face: "Nah that coudn't be it" So I am not sure what was behind all those pass interference and roughing the passer calls .... I don't think the zebras could have called that many in the huddle.... was it just new Yankee DBs not knowing our rules ... or do we have a coaching problem? Or maybe the DB's were tickling the receivers with a feather? BTW when was the last time we have seen an offensive pass interference call .. they seem to occur much more below the border but I can't think of why that would be fair ... It must be that I am just blind and can't see without the benefit of the TSN broadcast crew Tomorrow I will be interested in seeing the statistics .... I want to check to see if Edmonton's penalty yardage gained exceeded their total offensive output

Thankyou extremely much for these .... yipee!!!

I had always wished we could of got him here to run Bomberville

AMEN!

Actually you just labelled yourself ... how appropos

that's quite a judgment and untrue .... I just will pick certain issues and stick with them until addressed .... I am upbeat on the Blue this year as most .... this is the best team and the best hope we have had since the Milt Steagall days ... I like MOS's leadership but he has flaws that are not minor and may cost us the championship this year or next .... I have lived and died by the Bombers since 1961 when I wasn't old enough to read the newspaper .... I love the Bombers and everything CFL (and in the last 15 years the New England Patriots) Its far easier to label someone a Negatron than to have a fair and open discussion about the issues of the moment You confuse Bomber loyalty with conformity and party line .... why do you think Kyle Walters has sharp disagreements with MOS .... do you put him in your Negatron category too? You seem as unreasoned as a babbling Democrat waving the Hillary flag mindlessly uttering party propaganda

Everybody wants to over simplify and label ... better to live off emotion than to think discretely with judgment .... sort of reminds me of the American political system

What makes you think I "hate football and this team"?

so 8 Canadian starters?

I am sort of ok with low risk Lapo and controlling turnovers but if our new DLine fails to get pressure on the QB .... it could be a long year if we are repeating last year's defensive stats .... as it stands we are totally dependent on winning the giveaway takeaway battle

"nothing here" if you like but i want to keep an eye on his propensity for good judgment .... like betting your season on a 61 yard FG or sticking with Willy until forced by management to make a change ... or sticking to very passive coordinators in an aggressive league I love MOS as our coach but he needs to learn to take some advice and modify what he does, not just over manage or under manage .... I think MOS takes us to the western final this year but that is still two victories shy of a Grey Cup .... someone needs to help MOS overcome his stubborn flaws

the question is not conspiracy bu a questioning of MOS's judgment ... there has been reason to question part of it in the past and the suggestion that certain blind spots continue to exist to the detriment of the whole club ... others who see the flaw/s may end up in sharp disagreement ... that is the nature of the current discussion/emerging problem identification

IIRC he was viewed as the next up and comer before Nichols' multiple injuries and hence the need for Reilly to do it all

I would like to play poker with you
