Old Bomber Fan

What the hell are the Bombers doing? They deserve everything they are getting. If for some magical instance they walk out of Montreal with a win they are the luckiest team in sports. They do not deserve to win, have played terrible defense and the offense whether it be shitty play calling, poor execution or terrible decisions by Collaras. Pathetic

Oops back to old time pierce 
Take the points and hope you d can stop them 

Actually threw it to Wilson and Lawler……wow did someone givenpierce a talking to?

That’s what happens when you throw the ball more than 5 yards. Has Demski had more than one his way, Lawler one his way what about Wilson….any. Good old Pierce play calling it sucks big time

Pierce and collaras better look in the mirror! Collaras can’t throw a deep ball anymore and he does not use all his receivers. Recipe for failure.

And this is a last place team we are playing!

More I watch Zachary the more I think we groomed a QB only to let him goa and we will be without next year

Didn’t get to the thread until this morning but did watch the game. Thought the D played well and have rounded into a good group. Big hill is slow but his experience helps make up for that. With that said Wilson is hurt so the LBs are hurting a little. Still they played well! The special teams also did well. Our return game still leaves something to be desired but maybe they too are a work in progress. Our O is still puzzling to me. O line is not as good as years gone by so the entire scheme has to adjust to that. Not sure it has. I still question Pierce and his play calling. Short passes that rely onYAC yards works some of the time not all the time. Sweeps also work some of the time not all the time. And our intermediate and long passes are not as frequent as perhaps should be. Speaking of passing can anyone explain to me why when Lawler returns all Collaras seems to look for is him? Wilson proved to be a very reliable receiver as Demski yet he always seems to be looking for Lawler. Not hit on Lawler here but the same happened with schoen when Lawler first came back. Not sure it is all on collaras but more on Pierce. Finally the Streveler short yardage game has to change. Once upon a time defences didn’t know what to expect. Now they do and shutting him down three times in two games is concerning. With all that said they are improving and so good luck the rest of the way.

Good time of possession but field goals won’t do it. Defence has played very well 

Well what do you know a touchdown!

At least our kicker is tuned in. Collaras sucks simple as that. And pierce’s play calling is garbage

Wonder if Pierce has thought of drawing up plus where are receivers are not always coming across the middle just waiting to get smoked? Really? No wonder we have more on the 6 game than any other team ! Also wonder when O’Shea will swallow his pride and put in another QB

We need a new web and offensive coordinator. I could throw in a new head coach as well

Wilson catches everything last week and catch catch a cold this week

What was that? 

I may have missed something but here is my take on the Bombers so far this season
1. can't help but believe some starters from last year have come into camp out of shape and not taken part in any of the physical stuff that goes on in camp.
2. 11 starters do not take a snap during the exhibition games
3. RESULT: a. several starters now injured some for the entire season and b. other have had a slow start and complain about not being involved in the game todate
4. This type of start is reminiscent of Joe Mack days were the old boys club dominated which leads me to the coaching staff
5. Oshea has reverted back to the days when he first arrived, poor talent selection for games and that goes back to last year's Grey Cup. He is too loyal to veteran players even those who should know better to show up in shape yet still panders to them
6. Pierce is showing that the offense he has been in control of for the past few years is nothing but a carry over from Lapo's offense and it isn't getting better but more predictable. He play calling leaves a lot to be desired and was only bailed out in the past by a stingy defense. Even an armchair qb like myself can tell you what he is going to try next. The sweeps are a joke; keeping Strevler in the pocket when he could be a dual threat to run or throw out of the pocket is a no brainer to me but I guess I don't know anything. Start out run on first down and pass on second is becoming so routine and very easy to defend.
7. Can't blame Strevler entirely on his performance BUT as a professional football player, one would have thought he would be taking reps with either the fist team or at least scout team during every practice and getting in the throwing reps knowing he is not only the short yardage QB but also the backup unlike other years. They have a third QB who didn't see the field so his purpose is what? And to run Strevler when he is in as a permanent replacement instead of creating what I mentioned in 6 is just looking for more trouble.
8. So in my humble opinion to sum up the Bombers to date; the coaching is terrible, the veterans have yet to play like they are veterans and we are 0 -4. I will go out on a limb as say at this rate, and injuries play a role in this, the Bombers will be 0-8 before they win one. That is a hard pill to swallow for me personally as I have been an ardent fan since 1953. Been through the ups and downs and looks like we are on the down once again.

But we gave them a day off of practice so they would be fresh?? It also shows you how many reps stare Lee gets in practice… nil! I understand they have a lot of players hurt but I see bad coaching, bad prep, and the o line is nowhere near where they should be.
