Blue Bombers - 2024 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Pretty sad for such an important partner to the cfl. But I mean the cfl can’t be assed to take care of their own stats. It’s the laziest era for the cfl I can recall. Sportsnet had really good quality when they had the cfl in the past. It would be heavily dependant on politics, but the best partner for the cfl is the cbc imo. I don’t think they pay like they used to in the Olympics era, but if we could get decent dollars I think the volume of watchers they could bring as well as scheduling flexibility would be huge. -

I wonder how much is plans to bring in nfl cuts, or the lack of Canadians on the market. I mean who is in shape that you could grab that has any real upside? In general bringing in guys like this is always good. I do hope to see some more shuffling on the ar/pr in the next couple weeks. -

Yep. The 21 D was lights out in the 4th in a freakish way, but this squad is playing a whole game with soo many more minutes on the field. JY is really flourishing, I’m sure having hall still here to support him is a huge help in how fast he’s adapted his vision and implemented it. With a green secondary no less. they don’t have an award for CO of the year, but right now imo it’d come down to Jy and Ac. At this rate ac might pass buck for the next hc job -

The big difference is our kick cover has been exceptional this year, they are not only making up for shankahan getting us a net 15-20 punt on average almost twice per game, they could generate more field position with deeper kicks. If Toronto kicked 10 yards deeper on punts it’d just be 10 more punt return yards. If we kicked it 10 deeper on punts we’d get probably 7-8 more yards net. The proof is in the kick offs. The last month when Sergio has been averaging 70, we’ve been getting down field a making the extra yards count. In bc Sergio averaged 73 yards per kick off, terry Williams who isn’t a bad returner, averaged just 22 per kick return. He had a long of 27 on a freakin 80 yard kick off. Williams is averaging almost 24 yards per ko return this year too. So we kicked it deeper and still held him short of his average. Kick off cover is a bit easier than punt cover, but still these guys can get down field and make plays. Ayers is an old school pyramid busting kind of guy, he blows guys up who try to block him down field. -

When we dominated the league people talked about parity. Well now the whole league is on the same level lol. -

Honestly right now it’s better than 21 before stove came in. The 21 team dominated field position and with offence as well as D. This D has had to endure much worse field position from awful punting and an O that puts up one passing td every few weeks. We also have the hash mark change that has turned every qb into a guy who completes 70% of their passes. -

I could see ott or tor beating them in the ef. Imagine if masoli claws his way back to a gc only to run into a bombers D even better than 21? Lmao -

Idk what would be better, if Rourke continues to struggle, or if he turns it around and we slap him around again in the play offs lol. -

I feel like they are a bit soft like us last year. But they have some incredible weapons and in the league where every one is lower mid, they are certainly the head of the class on the field. That wr core is really good now, hands down the best imo. -

Can’t believe clown shoes keeps getting work and this fast. I wonder how much control Washington had with coach o running the show. I’m sure he will get another job next year. Maybe buck hc in edm and Washington dc -

Only one punt that wasn’t very good, basically gave them the 20/25 on the catch punting from their 55ish. Which still by his standards is not awful. I wonder if it’s adjustments being made, or just the field position he was punting from. Also worth mentioning, Castillo was kicking the crap out of the ball on kick offs. 73-74 yard average which is bede esq. bc had a pitiful 57. That’s huge. He had 71 last week, 70 the game before. He was averaging like 61 for the few week before that. With lows in the 50s. At first I was thinking maybe it was wind aided, but it seems more than that. Bc place is a strange place to kick with the air movement up high. -
You could run pin and pull with that, you could read an end, you could have a play side fast screen, which could be to lawler or a slot with him running a fade. Kola isn’t a masher. Our ol is built around zone schemes. It only makes sense to play that way.
-
I put it 99% on buck. Zach played a lot better, ol is a lot better, wrs made plays rbs ran very well. Play design has been awful, no play calls that set up wrinkles down field, poor usage of rubs etc. Imo, he’s a future hc of the bombers. Might not be any time soon, but he’s the sharpest football mind on our coaching staff in a long time. If we gave him a 4th down in every drive he still would’ve sucked to be fair lol.
-
Agree. How good imo is still a question though. He never had a sophomore year as a starter and only played half a year as a starter in the first place.

Killer reference

1 the secondary, amazing game 2 jones played great especially after biggie went out 3 Brady/lawler produced a lot for us today hh mos icing the lions td with a time out Turds, the whole ref crew, bc going for the td and 2 with 4 seconds down by 17, tsn and kid cantada, bucks play call and zachs pic crunch of the game on the opening kick off ayers destroyed the guy blocking him and cut off the return. Awe that’s dirty, didn’t catch the number but a lion took a swing with out a call. block of of the game, Brady atleast 3 times taking a man from up the middle and shutting down the rush to save zach and kola.

Be the only well attended game this year. bc goes for it with 4 seconds. Gtfoh Iced em

Sweeping the ldc/bjb is no joke. Any time we do that we should be in that kind of position.
-
Strevy in too. Brady doing leg stuff on the sideline yikes For sure. Kola still sucks but it’s better than last year and miles better than first half of this year
-
Shameful display by the ref crew today. Again.
