BigBlue Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 QB Harris & Ottawa's offence have great stats but keep losing ... is this the week they start to turn it around?
SPuDS Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 hope not. plus our defense should be almost back to full health.
BigBlue Posted July 31, 2017 Author Report Posted July 31, 2017 really : Wild Johnson Leggett all back to full health?

Wild I think is still on the 6 game.. Moe Leggett, Bruce Johnson and Shayne Gauthier all back in gear today for the #Bombers as per twitter Edited July 31, 2017 by SPuDS Taynted_Fayth and Sard 2
Arnold_Palmer Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 They've lost 4 games by 10 points. Their offense is really good. Harris is a great QB. Their defense leaves a lot to be desired though. I think we should be able to move the ball on them. Can't take them lightly because of their record.. They could still bear anybody. Jesse, SPuDS and Fatty Liver 3
Taynted_Fayth Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 awesome to hear Leggett is back too, even though I like Walker i think having Alexander back at corner and leggett at SAM will be a decent upgrade to our D SPuDS 1

I just don't see that. He's able to get the job done for sure. But Great? I don't get it. I agree with the rest of your statement though. Can't sleep on Ottawa. Don't think they'll make much noise in the 2nd half of the year but I do think they will surprise a few teams from time to time. Play hard nose ball and they'll fold. SPuDS, blue_gold_84 and JCon 2 1
Jpan85 Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 Interesting they have really two good receivers then the rest are okay to average. If Randle and Heath can take away Sinopoli and Ellingson I think they will be alright. SPuDS, Mark F, JCon and 1 other 4

Mark H. Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 I agree that Harris is a good QB. That offense moves the ball well and has really been piling up the points.

If there is one thing the Bombers have shown this season so far is we can go toe to toe with most, if not every team in the league offensively. Defensive has been our issue giving up too much in return. That said, Alexander and Johnson in for Walker and Carmichael in the secondary and Leggett back at SAM should make us a hellova lot better this week defensively. Hopefully Medlock shakes off his last 2 outings and i can see us winning by 10 SPuDS, Mark F, Fatty Liver and 1 other 4

You have to look only at points scored by the offense - Ottawa has the lead by a whopping +1. Both teams have played 5 games. Btw, the RB's have played Calgary twice.

wbbfan Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 As a bombers fan, 3 things terrify me. Other teams back up QBs, teams on a bad skid, and our starting qb getting hurt. Nash00 1

I actually feel confident The Fever, and Davis could hold their own if Nichols got hurt. I tend to agree, this is probably the best qb depth weve seen since KG backed up khari. And I dont even know before that. I think fever could pick up pretty well if nichols was hurt. Davis' lack of action would scare me greatly if he went in atm. Though he probably has more up side then fever. But the PTSD wont subside soo easily from seeing solid - good starters go down and pure bunk come in after. Not any time soon.

Arnold_Palmer Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 The fact that we have stability at the QB position means we can develop Davis properly. I'm glad he hasn't seen much real game time because we've had some good QB prospects in the past that were either rushed into action or had a terrible terrible offensive line behind them. Hopefully in a year or two Davis will be a starting QB in this league. SPuDS and Mark F 2

Getting pressure on him early is going to be crucial, being on the road and all. Another hot start like Thursday night (getting an early turnover, for example) would be huge. Fingers crossed Leggett and Johnson are back, too. That'll help the secondary immensely.

Very pleased that they've used LeFevour in a few situations this year that make use of his mobility advantage, showing LaPo realizes his value as a dangerous weapon close to the goal line and that they're not caught up on a fixed QB pecking order. Use all weapons. Mr Dee 1

The Bombers have cured the Red zone blues haven't they? Don't know how or why, since La Police is such a terrible play caller. 2018 Paul La Police, head coach,, Hamilton Tiger cats?

Kent Austin is not going anywhere- he still has two years on a very fat contract and he is buddies with the owner. The Çats lost a very good offensive coordinator (Condell) and a very good defensive coordinator in short order and have not replaced them with anywhere as capable people. If there has to be a scapegoat, it will likely be Tillman. Collaros is the highest-paid player in the CFL and is arguably the worst starting QB in the league. Mark F 1
