  1. Past hour
  2. Nic Taylor has been re-added to the practice roster. I guess he was released last week due to lack of spots. Linebacker Cam Bright was released from the practice roster. He was in town for 10 days.
  3. 3rd Q, 2nd & 3 at the WPG 3, lo and behold Younger has the D-line playing a 3 man front with a good 2-3 yds. between them, Walter Fletcher takes a handoff and walks into the endzone untouched. Biggie might have seen that one coming and rerouted.
  4. Here's the thing the smart play designers/callers have mastered though: The front/alignment doesn't matter beyond the read you're hoping the offense to make pre-snap. The big difference between JY's D and Richie Hall's is that Richie Hall applied this logic to every level including the DL. Our DL is way too static and we don't have the right type of ends to run this D.
  5. Today
  6. The Bombers handled Sask and BC pretty easily this year once they got their **** together. So I'm not sure where that is coming from
  7. Yeah, I'd like to know his reasoning. I will say though he was good at guessing winners this year (57-24) so hopefully he's not right again. Edit: I watched to see why he was picking the Bonbers to lose and he didn't say. He just predicted that either the Lions or Riders were going to win.
  8. I have to admit I think BC is gonna smash the Riders and I'm a little worried about facing them in the West Final. They're a different team with the VAJ man. Especially with the possibility of a home Grey Cup.
  9. Be better. At 10, my pop would mix southern comfort in my sunny d. After a few slugs from the sippy cup, i never made a peep, plus it prepared me well for adulthood.
  10. nice.....do you now tho what we had to have on each side of ball tho for the designation...like 6 on offence always...and only 1 on defence.....or 5...2.....
  11. Dauphin used to but not sure if they still do. Golden West stations across the Bible belt also did but that was 17 years ago so not sure about now. I would suspect Altona and maybe Portage still do. The ones who still have AM sticks are most likely...
  12. I actually know the guy who owns the Gipp Forester archives and leases the content each year. Good dude... Owns a studio in Vancouver.
  13. Here's what I have for this season for proper Canadians (O-D and total) 1: 6-4 T:10 2: 6-3 T:9 3: 6-3 T:9 4: 7-3 T:10 5: 7-3 T:10 6: 7-4 T:11 7: 7-3 T:10 8: 7-3 T:10 9: 5-3 T:8 10: 5-3 T:8 11: 5-4 T:9 12: 6-3 T:9 13: 6-4 T:10 14: 6-3 T:9 15: 6-3 T:9 16: 6-3 T:9 17: 6-3 T:9 18: 6-3 T:9
  14. I have no issues with the Riders having all stars or even winning awards. All I care about is our team winning championships. Infact the way I look at it. Give them all the awards and all star selections. They’ll have a lot of guys asking for big raises in the off season and in a salary cap era I say good.
  15. what's with the alternative take over these days? what next is 99.1 going to go back to Peggy? is hot 100.5 going to get bought back from Evanov and it becomes Jewel again? (I wonder which station will be hearing the eerie sound of Mariah's Glockenspiel first (I'm assuming it will be Kiss 102.3)......and more important, who is going to have the rights to the Gipp Forster archives) according to an observant Radio West listener the last song was the Spice Girls Goodbye.....well it's still better than what TSN1290 signed off with
  16. It'll be a sellout... They'll paper it if they have to, but all th tickets will be gone
  17. Just updated by the Bombers... thought there'd be more sold TBH. The said there was about 3k left a few days ago so that's not far from where they are at now.
  18. The problem is its not going to be cold. I consider anything over-freezing for playoff football not cold.
  19. I didn't listen to it but I guess Jamie Nye was on WST today and said Sask is gonna beat BC and regardless of who comes out of the WSF, they're definitely going to beat Winnipeg in the final. I mean, maybe he's right but to be THAT certain is quite something.....
  20. Yah, works against weaker teams but the last 2 games have demonstrated they can't do that against the better teams.
  21. I’m one of those waiting until the weather to maybe get tickets. I don’t have a problem with the cold but the almost 10 year old doesn’t wanna sit outside if it’s freezing.
  22. Pretty much. To get further into it, in a 40 front D (which most teams run) and a Sam lber in coverage your wil and mac have to take inside gaps in the run fits. Then the Sam takes the out side edge gap (c usually) and a half the other side edge gap. Then the S is generally the back up inside if some one blows it. If you play with that alignment, the wil/Mac are stuck between the hash marks. So if the rb hits the flat between the tackle and the side line below the WRs, the lbers just can’t get there in time. Even if they are spying the back when not in run fits, they would have a big gap to close and have to flip their hips and run to the rb, so with a break down field you break the angle from the lber and force them to make a sharp hard pivot which few nfl athletes can do with any momentum. with all teams running variations of the spread, and the hash change defences have gotten smaller. The Mac is the size wils used to be, and wils are old sams. That means they struggle more to play the gap. If any thing, especially with the amount of read, option, and zone run schemes, you need an extra body inside. In a D like ours, you either have a lber on hook curl flat or medium interior wall coverage. Then a corner, Sam or half often has the flat. But they seldom are following the rb or taking them into consideration. So that db is generally run off in a pass play. Usually in a heavy run situation you see our lbers in the tackle box. Other wise, they are generally deeper and spread to the tackle width or more.
  23. It’s just the degradation of our game plan. Brady’s hands are as good as Harris. Tbh, Harris benefited from playing with the check down master in nichols, zach is significantly worse at throwing good screens, and short tosses. If any thing, Brady has better hands. Catching down field passes from zach is sonically easier than short stuff. Down field you have more time to set up and snag it. The jet sweep package has died, along with other packages and plays we have the pieces for. Remember the counter toss to Harris? The direct snap? The draw? 2nd and longer than 10 was a favourite for the draw to Harris.
