and buck gets a lot of shots here for his play calling. guess collaros disagrees.

another thing..... twice Bomber d players restrained themselves when a play was not quite over,

jeffersen   didnt do the usual push at the sideline corny going out of bounds

 new guy 54 gentle sack of corny... actually held him up.

I appreciated both plays... smart and respectful. I hate the push when a guy is going out of bounds. only possible purpose is to injure.

The record the past 2 yrs is likely due to a lot of things like this...

It works two fold in that it:

-Makes players feel more confident in the game plan 

-Makes them even more invested in the playbook and studying the other team’s because they get to contribute.

Pretty awesome, no ego from Buck or the other coaches. Top down philosophy from the coaches to the players.

The Adams play was funny- definitely gently wrapped him up after just bumping him and thinking he was going down.

ZC’s post game was an interesting look at how our coaching staff operates.

He said that him and Brown go looking for plays in other leagues that they think could work for us, and Buck tries to put those plays into the playbook/game plan if they all agree it looks good.

Specifically they noticed something about Edmonton’s front - brought it to Buck, suggested DP run the play- Buck put it in and it got a TD. 
 

I don’t think that is all too common a thing to give your players that kind of voice
 

Or for players to take that initiative.

I really hope we don't lose Buck in the off-season.

Dakota Purkop said on the post game show that Dru Brown drew the play up this week and brought it to Buck

I thought on the Adams gentle sack that he maybe thought corny got rid of the ball already and didn't want to take a penalty.

I would add in that that kind of coaching attitude is why we have been so good at player retention. There's not alot of ego on this coaching staff. It's why almost every player goes on about how special this team is.

Take a little less money, play in front of a great crowd, win games, make playoff cash. Why wouldn't you want to play for the Bombers atm

[Stickem]

Excellent all around effort.....What stands out for me the most in this one was the poise that Collaros displays....Mark of a true champion and when he took those two heavy shots bounced right up and continued his stellar play....Was also impressed with our back-ups...This team is deep in talented personell

[Bigblue204]

I wanna know what Taylor was saying to the Elks DBs in the 4th Q. Seemed like some interesting conversations were going on

Things like this are why I believe former qbs make the best offensive coordinators. They have to have a much deeper understanding of the entire thing than other positions.

I thought he just felt bad for the Elks and was trying to give him a sympathy hug.

Yup, you have to basically know every position on the field

Yeh... one of your backup QBs designing a play for your other backup QB and not only having that practiced, but also used in game... yeh that's how you keep players bought into the game plan and the team

[Booch]

Team...this is a team....and speaking of team...I really like what Hassell is bringing on ST's

I think the ball off of his helmet kind of embarassed him ...put that behind him and is catching on quick...He could turn out to be a very nice find

Yeah...he plays hard...once he gets up to speed on cfl nuances he could make a nice HB...even some Sam

Is Schoen NFL bound?

You can’t teach that type of separation on his 65 yard TD. That’s just pure football IQ.

Hard to say with NFL politics and how they view things...lots going against him...walk on...2 yr starter only...un drafted...2 failed attempts...cfl refugee...plus he will be 27 next yr during season...so he needs to.make a roster as a contributor right outta the gate if he even gets a legit chance...NFL wont waste money and time developing a guy that age...with minimal pedigree in the way the view things...we may luck out

100% I think he’s nfl bound. He should be in the nfl. Year two roadhouse in the cfl would be scary.

Not necessarily..see above
