johnzo Posted July 22, 2018 Report Posted July 22, 2018 Noticed last night that when Couture is in for tight end sets, Bowman is the guy subbing out. So Bowman is not only getting fewer targets, he's getting fewer snaps. (love that TSN over-the-huddle camera, makes it so much easier to track lineup changes on O)
Brandon Posted July 22, 2018 Report Posted July 22, 2018 Streveler was distributing the ball to everyone and Bowman still wasn't getting much his way... something is off. wbbfan 1
Fraser Posted July 22, 2018 Report Posted July 22, 2018 I gave up on Bowman when he was open in the end zone but was 2 steps behind the ball because he gave up on his route. I think it was Nichols first game back. Bigblue204, Tracker, 17to85 and 1 other 1 1 2
M.O.A.B. Posted July 22, 2018 Report Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) 0-0 in 3 games now i believe and I dont think he is being double-teamed. Need to put somebody in, Flanders, Thompkins or whoever. Heck, Bakari Grant will be a better pickup right now, if we need a 3rd vet receiver. Put up a quiet 1000+ receiving yards last year. https://www.cfl.ca/players/bakari-grant/158240/ Edited July 22, 2018 by M.O.A.B. Tracker 1

And yeah using grant to start an extra NI would be great.

Goalie Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 I'd go Flanders and if need be use Peterman more. I feel we are a running team and need to keep doing that. Flanders is just another weapon to use. Adams Dressler Demski Peterman Wolitarsky? Why not. wbbfan 1

bearpants Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 I like Bowman I think he sticks around... I think he'll be useful at some point... that being said, I wouldn't be too upset if he "tweaked" something in the Argo game and finds himself on the 1-game... I'd put in Thompkins or Flanders to give some other guys some opportunities before we just go ahead and dump him... People pointing out that Demski play the "Flanders role" now is irrelevant... we are a run first team... and all of Flander, Harris, and Demski are also proficient pass catchers... having more "swiss-army knife" weapons on the field only makes our offense better....

I would be happy to see him there again. We could create some excellent chaos having Harris, Flanders, Demski and potentially Streveler all on the field together. Mark F 1

Our O has played it's best with Flanders in the lineup... The guy has done nothing but produce when he's been on the field. You make room for a guy like that.

TBURGESS Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Demski is taking the Flanders role and is a NI. IF we replace Bowman, I'd go with a young receiver, not Flanders. Bigblue204 1

I agree and I would like to see Thompkins in the line up... but I would argue that "young receiver" also describes Flanders... also, Flanders is younger than Thompkins (same age as Washington)...

AKAChip Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 The problem with inserting Thompkins is that he really isn’t a slot receiver. His skill set is best utilized as an outside deep threat. So if you make that change, you also have to move someone else inside. Washington makes far more sense as a direct replacement. bearpants 1

Albertabomberguy Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Just announced that the bombers traded bowman to Montreal for a late conditional draft pick
Dr Zaius Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Haven't been a fan of Bowman, but this isn't a win for us. A conditional 8th? Lol HAS to be cap-related
