I'd put 0 stock in what Campbell says at this point. Personally I believe Vaj was doing Vaj things and playing it up because he was awful.... but you never know until they check it all out.

GCn20 Posted August 2 Report Share Posted August 2 45 minutes ago, wbbfan said: It was. Part of that is bc just not running the ball, but the biggest is how we deployed him. I can count on one hand how many times he blitzed with fingers to spare. He spied vaj a lot and even his sack came on a shallow spy. Even though it was a half sack at best where he failed to wrap and Adams finished the play. Biggie's usage was exactly right. He wasn't tasked to do anything with speed but his football sense was utilized instead being the spy. He was filling every escape gap that Adams had throughout the night and it gave him fits. 1 minute ago, 17to85 said: he said that right after the game just after he said they needed to get it checked out.

Adams, like Collaros earlier this year, is in his own head. Sitting him a game or two would be the best thing. It's what we kind of did with ZC and his "thorax" injury. Regroup, and reset mentally.

Yep that also extends to ba as well. We ran a lot of 2 deep S looks, and basically didn’t have to make tackles up the middle all day. Ba wasn’t just running down hill trying to hit guys, and also didn’t have to play a deep middle. We were able to run a lot of quarter and 3 deep with him off to either side. Jy has made some great adjustments to our D and gotten the most out of our dbs. K-Shack and bb1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_fanaddict Posted August 2 Report Share Posted August 2 With that time of possession last night, if we had the offence we had 1-2 years ago we might have set a pile of new records lol. Dunnings record might have been in jeopardy 🤣 I’m not complaining with the win. But could you imagine a health O out there last night. Yikes. wbbfan and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just that I felt like we did a pretty dang good job in one on one coverage situations. Much better than we did in the grey cup. Clearly the defensive coaching has improved as well. But we had lack of depth and injuries in that game as well. The actual coverage was poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than we did in the grey cup. Ritchie Hall doesn't hide anything, he just sends pressure giving a qb an easy read and throw which the hope is will be short and held short. Last night was a lot more not just blindly rushing extra people but making Vaj hold onto the ball past his first read and eventually the pressure will get there. Complete opposite strategies and if they had done the same to faj in the grey cup likely would have made him look as impotent as they did during the regular season when they did just that.

Goalie Posted August 2 Report Share Posted August 2 (edited) Is this true. Wilson is now 3rd in total receiving yards. id still sign Bailey and move Johnson to the PR. lawler Bailey Wilson whitehead Demski with Clercius and Case. really no difference between case and smith. Case gets in cuz he’s a backup receiver. Smith ain’t gonna get reps being a backup RB. Despite the narrative dressing a guy who can return and do something else is better Edited August 2 by Goalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until last weekend, they would’ve been better off trading for Tre Ford. I think he would do really well in BC but I think that ship is now sailed and Ford likely takes over Edmonton.

He called a better game than an OC that had 36 plays or something....it was still not a great game by Buck. I'm really hoping theyre just saving Brady for the last bit of the season because IMO he's still not getting enough touches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farhan figured MBT would be too expensive (in terms of a trade) and Masoli wouldn't cost them as much... But honestly I don't think either of them is going to help.

I will disagree with that, Brady had a good amount of touches through out the game and the quick passes were working all night. Had Strev not screwed up the short yard plunge and if Zach would of completed a few red zone passes things would of looked even more one sided. bb1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
