Week 3 Practice Notes & Discussions

[M.O.A.B.]

 

[M.O.A.B.]

Played WLB in OTT and was the starter since week 16 of 2019 after Avery Williams got injured.

Interesting add. Wonder if that's a sign that Wilson and Rocquemore are out for a longer period of time or just a depth thing?

This is exactly what I was thinking... hopefully it's not bad news for Wilson or Rocquemore...

Went to the same college as Collaros. Cincinnati. He's a bearcat.

Does a bearcat wear a bearpants?

No. They go bear-butt. But that could mean there is trouble bruin.

[M.O.A.B.]

So we're facing the Arrrrbuckle this weekend.

I think we'll need more of an offensive output than last week vs Toronto for this week. Toronto has a very good offense and we could be screwed if our O isn't firing as Toronto showed their defense has teeth too.

Cam Meredith has been released from the #Bombers practice roster.

 

Wow.  Had high hopes for him.

[TrueBlue4ever]

One question that needs answering before all others. 
 

Are Harris and/or Adams practicing today?

Too bad- it made for a great backstory.

He lives in Winnipeg, right?... Maybe he heals up and gets another look... doesn't mean it's over...

[rebusrankin]

Man sorry to see that with Meredith, had high hopes.

[Noeller]

Really curious to see if Adams is back today. Irving and Brown suggested that he was close, during the pre-game show last Friday....

I would rather have Darvin back than Andrew Harris. Bailey and MCKnight are definite downgrades from Adams.  We don't lose that much with Oliveira in the lineup.

Harris was basically our offense in the Grey Cup season. How many balls has Oliveira caught? I haven't seen Oliveira truck guys and push for yards like I've seen Andrew do it. A healthy Harris would be an upgrade over Oliveira, no doubt.

How quickly some people forget. Oliveira looked okay in G1 but the second game wasn't great. There were missed assignments and other issues. Harris is one of the greatest RBs of all time. It's a big drop-off.

While I agree with you 100%. Oliveira trucked Santos-Knox HARD in game 1.

So only 95% then haha. It's all good. Yeah I was more focusing on the consistency Andrew has of moving the pile and getting extra yards. Can be the difference of 5 or 6 yards VS 3 or 4 some games.

[do or die]

Oliveria is certainly going to be a good one.......but, after 2 games...... comparing him to a future CFL HOF player is perhaps pumping the gas a bit quickly, here.....
