3 stars plus hh preseason kick off (of fg kicks)
Doublezero replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree, kick/punt cover and returns are not a curse for us. But for one side of the equation - most TDs scored - I'd venture to say this is because we had Janarion Grant in Blue & Gold from 2019 to 2023. And if you look at total yards gained on kick and punt returns since we let Grant get away, Bombers are just about the worst in the league. This, despite the fact we force opponents to kick to us more often than virtually every other team - credit our defence for forcing those 3rd down punts. Really, that is an opportunity squandered: more punts coming to us, but among fewest yards gained. Bomber fans see this intuitively - we are getting lots of chances to return the ball but often losing the overall field position battle. -

do or die replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
New guys: 1. Cooley......yeah the ratio, but another game like that, and he will have to be kept. 2. Artopoeous......nice pocket instinct, good reads, ball out on time. 3. Evan......punter, with some actual leg. Vets: 1. Adams......need more impact plays from interior, and he looks like the man for the job. 2. Strev......looked good standing in the pocket, and slinging the ball. 3. Ayers.....dude popped out on the screen, at LB, a number of times Like: The blitzing and pressure packages on D. None of that Tim Burke crap All the QBs looking pretty good in the pocket No like: Kick returns and coverage (sigh) Some of the receivers.......poor releases, poor pattern running, poor catching. -

Yeah, could you imagine siting next to those two randomly though? Can’t imagine how annoying it is in person. I’m sure the league won’t let them do the same crap with another horn and continue to ruin broadcast. -

It's just how negatively the dumb horns impact the TV broadcast. It's obnoxious. -
I watched it last night. Just have to select it the sa e as if watching live in believe.

Is the game available to rewatch on cfl+? can’t seem to find it

2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season Thread
wbbfan replied to WinnipegGordo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
yeah it’s gross. They’ve even been getting complaints from their own season ticket holders about those two. And still he’s trying to convince the ALs to let him use other similar horns. -
I meant in terms of time in the league. QBs come here at every age from 21-30 it’s not a great tool. Wilson was plenty comfortable in the pocket. He had one bad hesitation other wise was fine.

The Als are still keeping their selfish & entitled "Oh whoa is me" fans in the loop. Making them feel like they're important when they're not. -

Cooley might have to spend time on the PR biding his time waiting for a chance that might never come, Peterson already looks quite capable of backing up Brady, so it comes down to ratio. I'd love to see Pigrome and Cooley on the field at the same time, that would be fun. -

Agree, Chase Artopeus had that Dru Brown vibe, cool and intelligent, maybe not as physically gifted as Wilson but almost surpassed him in effectiveness in one set of downs. They need to keep him around on the PR to evaluate whether he has real potential to develop or if he's just a gifted improviser that can get by faking it for awhile. -
At the same age Dru Brown was the starter for Ottawa. He’s only 9 months older than Wilson. I don’t think there’s a lot of runway for Wilson to develop into a starter. A guy in his first pro camp looks more comfortable in the pocket. Would like to see some confidence from Wilson. Still a real hesitation to move the ball, then check downs to nothing because he held it so long. I get keeping him for the first little bit because of the suspension and Streveler coming off major knee injury, but we should be looking for another prospect.

No surprise that the kids are better at it.

J. Sheahan : 4 punts - 44 yds ave. - 51 yds long - 176 yds total J. Evans : 2 punts - 53.5 yds ave. - 56 yds long - 107 total It's obvious who won here
-
That was the problem with Collaros early last season.
-
He does, but he is a lot farther along at this point than brown was. His touch was much better than last year and he did get the 3 step and faster timing done well. he’s un phased by the speed of the pros, pass rush pressure and really any thing. Guys cold as ice. Has an electric arm too. Gonna be fun to watch him continue to develop. At this point I’d like to see strevy start the pre season game 2. Then play Zach in q2, strev as much of the 3rd as he needs then Wilson the rest.

Like our 4 QBs. Chase should sit on the pr and get time down there until elgersma comes available any way. -

Did not know that. Good to know. -
I was at the game but reading now about the streaming issues, that's a joke. LRSD streams high school games on Youtube and its done by students at LRSD Arts and Tech.
-
The one issue I have with Wilson is I think he holds onto the ball a little bit too long. He needs to be quicker with his reads. He’s prone to taking sacks, I thought Artopeous did a great job of getting rid of the ball quickly
