Nolby Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 (edited) I expect a much more difficult go than Edmonton, Bo playing some damn good ball. Tons on the line for both teams, potential West clinching game (with a Sask loss), should be a damn good one.

That Greg Bell in Hamilton has been running well and is a big boy. Our run defense has been diarrhea lately so i dont know how much of an advantage it id for us.

Noeller Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Id love to go into playoffs riding a heater, but this does feel like a game we *should* lose. Then win next week at home, then the final game at Montreal is a nothing burger that doesn't matter with mostly back ups playing and could go either way....

Pete Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Bo looked good in the 2nd half against BC Hopefully we can make him look like 1st half Bo The key against him has always been keep him from settling in the pocket and gaining momentum. Willie needs to be a factor, which he hasn't lately when playing Hamilton Noeller and Piggy 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy needs help, nobody has stepped up to replace Jeffcoat who was a handful to contend with on every play, the pass rush has become a secondary function.

Mark H. Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 I kinda prefer this version of our D. Over the years with Hall, there were times when they couldn't defend the pass if the DL was having an off day or consistently getting blocked. Now, the coverage is still good after several steam boats. Noeller, JCon, MOBomberFan and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pass rush as a secondary function is as much by design as it is personnel driven. Younger is purposely sacrificing pass rush for coverage, to some pretty good results I might add.

This D seems much more difficult for teams to figure out. If the DL can improve it could be ever more deadly. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H. Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Every so often with Hall, the secondary would be lights out. Then you were like "where did this come from?" JCon and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, this scheme allows the Safety and MLB to play more traditional roles, which allows them to focus on their primary responsibilities and simplifies the positional play when others have to step in for them.

And on that note, I would say he's also sacrificing some run defense, to focus more on pass coverage I guess it is what is. In a league that favours offense so much, the defense literally has to pick their poison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, the last 4 gc winners and 6/8 gc finalists have been run to throw teams. The Hamilton style of pass first run never hasn’t worked in a long time.
