Game Day Thread- Week Twenty Two, Western Semi-Final: Winnipeg Blue Bombers @ Saskatchewan Riders November 11th, 2018

[Fraser]

I thought illegal contact was an automatic first down

[AKAChip]

Very disappointed in LaPolice’s gameplan so far. 

[USABomberfan]

Lapo is getting too predictable again.  I know it's cold out but it's ridiculous that he's not using play action or trickery.

[Fraser]

Rookie throw, vet move is to take the sack

What game are you watching???

[the watcher]

Yes!

[Scorch]

TD!!

[Doublezero]

Why wouldn't MOS go for the 2 pt conversion there? A single convert gets you nothing.

Nice call

O’Shea hasn’t quite figured out the benefits of going for two yet. Give it another 10 years. 

[Doublezero]

Half time. We got this.

First half observations

• usual playoff jitters to start
• O-Line was having a tough time making gaps between the tackle
• Zebras aren't calling much. At least two blatantly obvious offsides and a few holds they ignored
• Wol is a beast. 
• Crappy time management last minute. 
• Paddy, you cost us a few points with that penalty
• Gutsy call on the FG attempt, Medlock had the leg but looks like it curved at the end

2nd half needs

• smashmouth football. No big plays given up on d, don't be so soft
• Keep slamming with Harris and the passing threat
• Misdirection, misdirection, misdirection. 

 

LETS GO BLUE!

Uh.... to go up 7? People always seem to forget that if you go for 2 and don't get it, the other team can take the lead off a touchdown + 1 point convert.

Add on squibbing kickoffs.  Medlock isn't hitting them long and the cover team isn't covering them.

Lankford would have hit that FG.  Yes I am drunk.

Go back to sips not gulps:)

[Dodge and Burn]

Sarah O: how did you find rge first half crowd noise? 

 

Drew W, dead faced, looked right her: quite...

Beauty quote.

 

Field position is the only reason they are in. Improve that and no turnovers and we win by double digits.

I like the pressure

I see Suitors green pom poms have arrived in the scene.
