Chris Streveler scored 3 TDs last week giving him 12 and a single-season WPG record for a QB. Old record: 11, Matt Dunigan 1993. (Streveler is now just 2 TDs short of the CFL record for a QB of 14 set in 1991 by Doug Flutie and tied last year by James Franklin).

These aren’t just stats. They’re a vital part of why our offence has been so productive, leading to success, and success usually comes from having good stats.

That must mean good stats are good.

I’m so confused.. 🤔

Rushing tds i take it?

XD, stats are extremely polarizing. Even though every one loves wins, and win/loss is just another stat. 

That short yardage off tackle for a td play was brilliant. knew he was gonna break one at some point.

Scored, so I assume it would mean rushing or receiving (if applicable).

Yeah I didn't really take anything he said to have any real relevance to this team. But still found it interesting.

If some one is overbearing, micromanaging and making the CO call a more passive game in one year, its very likely to be the same thing the next year with the same coaches. Its easy to change the year on a calendar, not nearly so easy to change people.

Makes sense. We havent run that play with him yet have we? A little darvin adams throw back to streveler? Thats gonna be a good one some day.

It's likely, sure. But I'm not going to assume it's definitely that way.

When it comes to the nature of people, its a pretty safe bet that an adult isnt changing in one year. Especially when we see the exact same situation talked about play out multiple times in this same year.

Ask an eskimo fan how " good stats " are working out for them ?

Stats are good for negotiating..... usually for only one side though

Are the #Bombers making personnel adjustments to their defensive backfield? While it may be due to Anthony Gaitor being nicked up... Marcus Rios is in at dimeback, newcomer Nick Taylor in at field halfback, and Brandon Alexander at safety.

 

Anything that gets Hecht off the field, I'm good with.

[Saidin]

Yea I wonder when Hecht was saying to Sayles he messed up it wasn't him that screwed up...

God missing that guy basically all year has played havoc on the secondary. Is he healthy now?

Alexander at S is really interesting. On one hand I really id rather have him at another DB spot, but his speed at S is really tantalizing.  I would think about moving fenner off cb, hes been beaten especially deep a lot. But im not sure he'd be any better at S. No perfect solution in this situation. Itll be great to have BA back in the line up though. 

Atleast they are shaking it up and making some changes though.

Hall wasn't at practice today, so maybe that will help too.

Thats interesting indeed. 

If they go back to dropping bighill instead of making him eat up a guard we could see improvement in pass D. 

[Noeller]

My only problem with the changes in the secondary is how communication might be ****** up by all the change. It's kinda like the OL...they get better with the same crew for extended periods because they communicate better...they know what the guy next to 'em is going to do at all times. Secondary is the same thing...hopefully they can overcome it.

[NorthernSkunk]

Communication looked totally non existent back there last game....

It's a bit different though. You don't really NEED to know what they next guy is doing. You NEED to know and fullfill your duty. It's when you start worrying about the others not being in position that things get messed up. If they're used to someone or multiple people screwing up, replacing them can be beneficial immediately as you should start off trusting that the guy beside you knows his role. I hope I explained that well enough....basically new guys who haven't screwed up before can give others confidence in just doing their own job.

We gave up 250 in the 4th quarter against the Als and 300 in the first half against the Tigercats......and people are worried about making some changes back there?

not people.....me. (I'm barely people...) and I said "my only concern".....it's a mild concern. Also, just because things were bad, doesn't mean it's on the personnel. I thought we were in agreement that Hall was the issue moreso than the players?

In football, it's never one thing. If it was only one thing. They'd have won.

the number of things that go wrong on one play are "a lot"

[Mr Dee]

Brandon Alexander’s insert into our lineup is HUGE. He very well could be the one that makes that difference we need at safety. He can also do that chicken dance...and back it up.

Sure Hall is an issue....but he can't make tackles for people either.   In the spirit of fairness, I blame everybody.
