Saw a lot more pressing A gaps and power traps with Geoff Gray in there and mobile. Bryant basically voiced this to media this week but they didn't get the slam on Dobson that it was. How do you think it would look with Wallace and Dobson’s roles reversed? Dobson seems like he’d fit better as a 6th in run sets or max protect only. To me he looks like he has cement feet in pass pro. Bigblue204 1

I think today's game plan just showed lack of confidence the O-line could compete with Argos front four and backer box. So they decided to not give the ball to Brady thinking Argos would expect that. One coaching irritation is that MOS is stubborn to a fault - very loyal to his players leading to bonehead roster decisions. Now 10 years in, I would also question his in-game management. You'd think after so long at the helm he wouldn't make so many mistakes. As for keeping the has-been players - It is no coincidence that MOS himself chose to continue to play as an older veteran player and did not retire after he was spent - hung on til the bitter end when he had to be cut. As for Walters - don't forget it was Walters who signed ZC to a 3-year $550/per deal when he really didn't have to. Could have easily gone 1+. It was also Walters who let the leagues best kick returner - who returned 5 TDs this year alone - get away. To his credit, Walters did re-sign Brady and Dalton Schoen when no one thought he could. It just meant there was nothing left for Janarion Grant and it could have been predicted that that would not turn out well - just as even the fans could see that ZC was done a year or more ago. But Bombers had to keep him because of that contract. good coaching/gameplanning would have used slide protections....roll outs and QB sprints....changing launch points.....motions....we didnt do any of that...we did the square peg in round hole technique Piggy 1, Bigblue204, Tracker and 3 others 5 1

Goalie Posted Monday at 04:06 AM Report Posted Monday at 04:06 AM (edited) Today is what our O would have looked like all year if we let Brady walk. And kinda did for several games.

Wallace seems pretty raw to me. Like his aggression level, but he's pretty stiff. I think it was borderline negligent to not stick with 3 import OL in the second half of this season. Things got a bit jumbled on O when Wolitarsky got hurt, but with the amount of snaps we had on D with Canadians we could have easily rolled with Randolph and one of Dobson/Neufeld in. Keep Chris-Ike in, rep him some at slot, Augustine if you need, bunch of fringe guys you could sign as an extra Canadian receiver too. Then you get Dobson as the extra guy most likely, Eli probably stays on as the 7th since he can play center and Wallace would be in the lab. rebusrankin, Noeller and JohnnyAbonny 3

I don’t think fixing the ol will be easy. I’d start by flipping an imp at G though. We have to spend $$$ on both sides of the LOS. Both O & D have to improve & that's job 1. Jake has to be told it's time to retire & hand him a coaching cap. Or a plane ticket back to the Maritimes. JohnnyAbonny 1

And the coach needs to take his share of accountability for what happened today. Just as does Zach. Maybe it’s fair to say there’s something about this particular combination of coaches and core players that seems to have trouble Executing in the big games? Too obvious? 🙂 At the end of the day O’Shea is still one of the most successful coaches in the history of the franchise and put us in the position to win the whole thing five times in a row… You don’t fire that type of coach. Not when he still getting you to the dance… But some adjustments need to be made. obviously one of his great strengths is he is a culture guy… I just don’t know if he’s much of a strategy guy. Their strategy guy, Dinwiddie, out strategied whoever our strategy guys are. Again, I don’t think that is MOS‘s skill set… But it’s on him to find guys who compete with a guy like Dinwiddie. Keep in mind too MOS has repeatedly, repeatedly, repeatedly said that he is 110% a Zach guy and has no plans to move on from him… So if you have issues with Zach then you have issues with MOS. Or you should. One thing the culture has lost...D and special teams used to be all about attacking the ball. Turning over the ball. Maybe specials still kind of is because we're one of the better teams at blocking punts, but how many games did we have 0 or 1 INT's/fumbles out of the D this year? We're pretty consistently losing the turnover battle and margin to win is a lot less. Seems like we got loaded up with star players and forgot how to win games, just leave it in their hands.

bustamente Posted Monday at 04:12 AM Report Posted Monday at 04:12 AM I really don't think that there are going to be that many if any big changes to this team this offseason. Thomas, Lucky and the Aussie punter pinked slipped. Some others will leave some others will replace them but I expect essentially the same team back next year for one more kick at the cat. Tracker 1
Goalie Posted Monday at 04:13 AM Report Posted Monday at 04:13 AM Not that it would have mattered but apparently Osh said Zach couldn’t grip the ball but they put him back in. Between that, an obviously injured demski tonight and the bighill Schoen debacle last year, it’s time for coaches to be held accountable Only changes will be via Walters who is gonna be forced to release some aging vets cuz OSH won’t. bustamente, BBlink and JohnnyAbonny 3

Gameplan on O was perfect in first half. Too many plays and drives killed by receiver mistakes. Missed opportunities to extend drives and score points, so kept it close. D was very passive and kept your O out there, no impactful turnovers which we needed to dominate the game. 3rd Q our O was barely on the field and that's where the game really turned. Our punt returner handed you 7, when we got the play to get it back it was taken away on a ticky-tack call. Our backup QB throws a TD pass that a rookie receiver makes an attempt at like he's looking into a full ******* eclipse trying to track it. BigBlueFanatic, Noeller, bluto and 1 other 4
