Eternal optimist Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 14 hours ago, wbbfan said: I just got mad thinking about 1 how bad that playing surface was, and 2 how they’d not let visiting teams on it til the last minute so it was always a mad rush to prep cleats. am I alone in never tuning out/ turning off? Seems like most every one I know will turn it off at some point. I’m just too masochistic to do it, it’s like touching a hot element and refusing to stop lol. I also never leave a game early, nor do i turn off the game, no matter how much they are down, or up. Has resulted in some spectacular comebacks, but just as many implosions. One of the reasons I love the game so much... even down 20 points, in the CFL you can stack 'em up quickly. HardCoreBlue and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H. Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I don't turn Bomber games off, but others, for sure it happens. In the Burke era I definitely pulled the plug a few times. I mean c'mon - no one watched every second of the unmentionable Banjo Bowl. Noeller and Piggy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 13 hours ago, wbbfan said: Yeah. I know he didn’t really get a first tc, he came in and played preseason right away then started. But he’s played a lot of games and been with the team for getting close to two seasons. When you do worse consistently it’s seldom over come. He basically came in with 1 move and since it got countered hasn’t done jack. yup....good depth but time to try a new option wbbfan and Piggy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue85gold Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 8 straight seasons with a 5 game win streak. That’s a crazy stat ”The Blue Bombers are on a five-game heater, making it the eighth consecutive season of posting at least one five-game winning streak.

JCon Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 Lots of football left, and anything can happen in the playoffs, but the two best teams in this league are last year's Grey Cup finalists. It would be nice to avenge last year's loss. Atomic, voodoochylde, Bubba Zanetti and 8 others 1 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voodoochylde Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 We win three of our last four and we make that job so much easier. The games won’t be easy but I never would have thought we would be in this position after the start we had.

3rdand1.5 Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 Not sure why, but to me Lawler and Zach seem to be out of sync..... Not sure what it is, but hopefully they can figure it out. rebusrankin and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are the New England patriots with Brady and The New York Yankees of the cfl. We are no longer the underdog. We are the top dog. I remember when we barely won 5 games a year. Now we on heaters of 5 plus for 8 years. You can **** on Osh for maybe the roster management but again 8 years of 5 plus game winning streaks, but obviously there’s a method to his madness and you can 100 percent say it works. Ya but we lost in the grey cup twice. Ya but we have been to 4 Straight. 3 of 5 is better than 2 of 4 tho. rebusrankin and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Woli, Lawler has become a crutch for Zach to rely on, an underused Demski is more of a serious issue, he should be visiting the endzone a lot more than he has this season. Those deep over the shoulder catches are serious game breakers that have been missing from the attack. Mark H. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play call is bad, still running much of the same stuff from plop era, every one knows our tendencies. Zach isn’t getting enough time in a clean pocket. Going into the 4th Q he didn’t have a single pocket that lasted 3.5 seconds. Nearly every thing was out in under 3. Ford had multiple 4+ second pockets, and two insanely long ones. Zach made the token bad give away after a giveaway, but played well enough out side of that. For wrs, lawler isn’t getting the same looks, and schoen was the guy who bailed us out on broken plays. Lawler is struggling as the whole pass game struggles. I’m not concerned about his play. If we fix the issues around him he will come good. rebusrankin, Noeller and Fatty Liver 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those deep over the shoulder catches are serious game breakers that have been missing from the attack. To a large extent you can only throw what opens up against the coverage. Edmonton drops 3-4 every single down and if it's 3 or less there's a cut cover in there too. Not much opportunity to bust off a corner route on them. Saw in second half a lot more routes where there were double posts for example to open up someone else running a dig under. Big play to Wheatfall and TD to Wilson both. Bombers really need to open up quick stuff to get ball out wide and force a D like that to make a tackle. Our receivers in general seem to not be on the same page as Collaros when it comes to attack those zone looks vertically, especially Lawler. Guy dropping out and guy bracketing overtop doesn't mean run corner between them, means flatten out and get to the numbers/sideline for the ball. Lawler should be playing boundary wideout IMO. He's most likely to get 1 on 1 vs a DB there if Bombers run routes to isolate him. Fatty Liver and rebusrankin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league figured out our passing game last year, and nothing’s really evolved at all. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
