  1. Jerseys Look Good, Jets heritage classic roster looks like it's gonna get it's ass handed to them tho.
  2. Ticats were to busy changing in to their pajamas by the end of the game.
  3. I think you'd have to give it to the 18000 or so fans who stuck around for 2.5 hours really during the delay. I think those people definitely deserve some huge props... 18000 or so but.. on TV, it sounded like way more. a very loud 18,000. Probably a very drunk and very full 18,000 but still... i'd imagine the bathrooms got quite the workout last night... But as for the on field stuff 1. Special Teams - I can't really single anyone out in particular, D Jones maybe? Kyle Knox? What speed on that guy.. WOW... but the unit as a whole were very very good 2. Fogg- Dude is cousins with Brandon Banks, and seems to be almost as dangerous as Banks is on returns 3. Thomas "No Pickles or " Mayo. - Who expected that? Kid with the funky hair had himself a game.
  4. Lol. Wouldn't care. The 20 month old went to sleep at 1030, she watched about 20 minutes of the game with me lol and then went up to bed with her mother lol.
  5. I was thinking 15,000 is kind of a weak fine for basically saying screw you to the ratio rules. Jones knew exactly what he was doing also, he was trying to cheat.... a more appropriate fine would be 1. take away their draft pick (yeah i'm talking first rounder here next year) and 2. making them play their next game with 1 less DI. That would make them think twice for sure.
  6. Disagree. I think every team follows the ratio rules, i think the riders didn't and got caught. The reason why this doesn't happen more often is because 99 percent of the teams in the league follow the ratio rules. Just cuz 1 team gets caught doesn't mean other teams are doing it, all it means is the team doing it got caught. You can bet your Arse that if the bombers or stamps or argos or als or lions or cats or redblacks or esks did it, they would be caught and fined also.
  7. O TDs and 3 picks will do that I guess.
  8. You better win a game when your D and Special Teams cause 6 turnovers and your 0 has none.
  9. Said it in a couple threads... seems appropriate here also. At one point, it was 21-0 and the bombers 0 had 92 total yards. Field position was ridiculous.
  10. I don't even think I could say that the O was very good, they were just efficient i think. At one point, bombers had 92 total yards on 0 and were winning 21-0. That's insane and unheard of really. That's ultra efficient. Sometimes, it's about being efficient, making the other team pay for their mistakes and last night in the first half, yeah they left some points on the board, like i said in the other thread, easily EASILY could have been 42-0 at half instead of 34-0 but... they made the ticats pay for their mistakes. Football is all about field position really, Masoli threw for 300 plus yards? that's great but all it did was result in 11 points. Nichols threw for what? 250? yet the final score was 37-11. Funny game for sure. Sometimes, stats are for losers for sure.
  11. I thought the play calling was kind of aggressive in the second half, i mean, if you watch it again, Nichols does try to make a lot of deep throws on first down... didn't connect on many of them at all tho, but the aggressiveness was still there, the execution tho wasn't.
  12. I think if you get 6 turnovers from your D and special teams then yeah.... teams could throw for 500 yards a game and it probably doesn't matter.
  13. I believe the looks on Hamiltons players faces and body language at the half did say the game was over but i also agree that the game wasn't over at the half. The bombers need to find that killer instinct, This is now 2 games in a row where they have had a very quick start only to do nothing the rest of the way pretty much. That is concerning for sure. Last week Edmonton, and yeah it was garbage time but Edmonton almost came back and tied the game.... Hot starts are good but in my opinion, you need to play for the full 60 minutes and these last 2 games, wins, and that's nice but these last 2 games, we have not played for the full 60 minutes, we have ridiculous hot starts that might not be sustainable long term, but then go to sleep on O for long periods of time. Concerning for sure. I'm enjoying the wins but these guys still have a ways to go until they are legit contenders for sure.
  14. It was 34-0 at half but easily could have been 42-0 at half... So they did leave points on the field for sure, But i mean, i guess that's just nit picking a bit... but... It's true... If you get the ball in the red zone to start a drive, coming away with a fg isn't good enough, you need a TD... Yeah we won the game and that's all that really mattered but... at the same time, we did leave some points on the field.
  15. People need to watch the second half again, the play calling was fine. It was the execution that wasn't there. Nichols went deep many many times in the second half, mainly on first down actually, leaving us in 2nd and long lots.
  16. Kane makes 2 much money, you gotta ask yourself, with expansion coming up, is he one of the players you'd want to protect? A lot of teams would probably say no... maybe 1 or 2 might protect him over some other player right now... but most certainly wouldn't. He's a problem child. He has issues, they are real legit issues, these issues seem to follow him wherever he goes. I highly doubt that he gets much back at all if he's traded. He's really not worth that much at all, he's a headache, for a guy who is overpaid and has a couple years left on his deal and is a massive problem off the ice, yeah, i don't see it.
  17. Yeah but that doesn't fit the paul lapolice is a fool narrative here. You are living in a world of reality while lots of people are living in a world where they for some reason have a hard time blaming a qb or players who aren't executing.
  18. It's not complaining. It's reality. I don't get this whole idea that if you point out flaws in Nichols game, it means you are complaining or wanting Willy. That's not the case at all... It's not even complaining, it's talking about the game and what happened pretty much.
  19. Well they did kick a 44 yard FG so 38-3.
  20. Wasn't listening at that point but man, Fantuz making excuses before the game even started? That's a defeatists attitude right there, cuz really it's no difference if the cats were in BC taking on the lions.
  21. I'm sure Hardrick will be fine, I thought it might be a shoulder issue.. I'm sure he'll be ok tho, as the bombers announce he is out long term.... They have Foketi on the PR still, so this next man up mentality seems to be working for this team right now... Man, what do you do when Randle and Adams are healthy, and Dressler and Smith.... Who do you take out? Cuz injuries mount and this teams depth steps up... Thomas Mayo stepped up big time.
  22. Not sure if it was the play calling or just lack of execution in the second half, cuz it seemed like Nichols was certainly trying to go deep quite a bit, I'm sure he had other outlets he could have thrown to but he went deep quite a bit, perhaps trying to run the score up, but... i'd prefer if they just played the quick passing game and sprinkle in some runs quite abit to keep the clock moving. The game was over at half tho. You could actually see it on the ticats players faces, the game was over. There was no way the cats were coming back. Not a chance. They were done.
  23. Would have like to see them make it 41 at one point there, all i was hoping for in the second half was just 1 TD... just 1. It is somewhat concerning that the O struggled pretty big time in the 2nd half but... at the same time, when you are winning by that much, i think it just comes with the territory, take the foot off the gas a bit, altho i don't really think they did since Nichols was looking for quite a bit of deep passes, i just think they failed to execute, i guess tho when you are up by 34 or whatever it was at that time, why not take some deep shots, Second half was pretty boring to watch and somewhat concerning for sure, Nichols almost throwing a pick 6 wasn't good, Hamilton DB dropped it, that's 2 games now where the Opposing teams DB has dropped pretty much a pick 6. I probably would have put Davis in the game tho later in the 4th, he can run a bit so... just run the ball and keep the clock moving really.
  24. Gotta give Denmark and Mayo some props tonight. Also Westerman wad held or tackled by a Hamilton oline on every play. Refs need to call these blatant holds.
  25. Hardrick was the only injured guy who didn't come back. 9 days until Toronto.
