wbbfan replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I got into it with my investor and partner because they wanted go do a meeting during the 19 gc. Today I have a private mri for our first baby because the hospitals mri was uncertain. Some times life happens. I'll probably miss the first few plays but it is what it is. My heart goes out to bomber fans missing the game for any reason. It's gonna be a great one and I'm pretty sure we will win our 12th cup this year. -

If they offer a promotion I don't think they can. That's not how the Bombers roll either denying access is death for retaining and getting young coaches. Maybe have the league look into tampering though. -
Aside from my personal opinions on change I think the 4d etc changes are impossible for the cfl. If we played 4 down football on our current fields it would become arena football. You'd be scoring on every posesion. As it is we've seen a few games this year, when offense was down, with only a couple punts combined. To go 4 downs you would have to shrink the field. you probably need to go down go 11 players too. But most teams share their field with a cis team and usually host hs championship games. Changing the field ruins all of that. Those leagues could change eventually but not that fast. They are low on resources at the best of times. Half the teams in the league can't afford to change their fields whole sale and the newer good stadiums are optimized for the big field. You'd ruin game day experience for 6 to 7k fans in the strongest markets. Aside from all of that You'd ruin watchability for a good year. Coaches would be in a place where they have no idea how to play call game plan or build rosters. You can't mess with the ratio too much either. That would kill grass roots football which is the keystone to getting back viewers in the 18 to 35 target demographic. My personal opinion is that the originality and differences between our game and the us game is what let's it survive. Cfl is faster better to watch and allows the best athletes to excel. It also demands more of players stamina and toughness. I bet every thing that makes me a bomber fan that 3 downs 12 men on the field and the field size and the ratio will not be over hauled. I bet xfl talks return again but that again it's nothing burger when it comes to mergers etc.

I don't think he does either. I doing both jobs is like representing your self as a lawyer. Makes you bad at both jobs. The relationship he seems to have with wade and walters etc isn't easy to replicate. They all get it the culture and love of football. My money is on Lawler for mop of the gc. I think he's gonna have another career game. He's gonna put on a real show. -

I have a hard time seeing them stop our run game with Ted out. And I don't see their ol doing well against our dl. I just couldn't bet against much better line play. But I do agree ham is a very good team and well coached. Banks is a weenie and simoni is a pos but other wise they are much more likeable than the 19 cats. And dl plus rb. -

With Laurent out I hope the Bombers booth crew track the cats subs well. They got busted for illegally subbing out nis late in the season I wouldn't be surprised if they try it again -

Time to make it 12 gc wins let's go blueee -
He would be lucky to be on the pr over Kowalski as the 8th best ol.
-
I think encouraging onside rugby punts would make the game much better.
-
Us rules and fields have those teams always closer to scoring not Canadian. Just based on the longer field not even factoring in the much higher level offenses at every grass roots level. More schools in Texas and Alabama average 40 plus points than every school in Canada.
-
Some teams in hs and college are doing this now. The analytics of value for punting is terrible. I would do rugby punts with 2 on side gunners every punt and go for it more on 3rd and less than 4
-
Thats a good point too. Those two were all in on the cfl going full xfl rules since the first talks.
-
Idk would he pander soo hard before the gc? Maybe maybe not. I'd like to think not but he's the worst commish in a very long time.
-
Totally. And that 5th would be wienke. I'd a put Lewis in over Burnham too. Both mtl wrs did a lot more with a lot less qb. Suhk might be the least deserving on the list. Desjarlais is 10x better. I like how neither moc or mor lbers get a spot but alford does. Shows who the real Roy was according to the players.

Early chat- Ticats vs Champs Grey Cup Thread
wbbfan replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
That's the truth. Especially matching our physicality on the lines and at db wr. Our dbs and wrs are extra physical and make it much harder then oppositions are used to or comfortable with. Every pro linemen has played on a line that was more physical than the opposition. Few dbs and fewer wrs have played as physical as us. And even fewer dbs have played a wr core that blocks and is as physical as ours is. It'll be tough with out Ted but yeah that front 7 is better then its been for a while. Jsk is as good and healthy as he's been since staring here. He's a guy who can single handedly blow up a run play. Jsk and Davis need to have monster games for the cats to have a chance. -
Early chat- Ticats vs Champs Grey Cup Thread
wbbfan replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
On offense I run hurry up none stop. Limit the Bombers ability to many subs as much as possible. I would constantly run heavy packages with wrs and have them run fast out type stuff. Force the d to think about pressure vs contain. Start out focusing on quick short passing stuff. Then use pump and go. Use banks as a distraction in short passes on stuff like that. Finally attacking the 2nd level with timing routes. Especially when the Bombers show blitz. Don't use play action every one knows Hamilton won't commit to the run it just slows down the passing. Ste mostly blocks but mix in some draw plays and jet sweep to white. On defense you play the hbs Sam and s close to the box. Gap cancel on the front have the front try to shed blocks and make tackles but the dbs are the gap back ups. Play a lot of match zone and deep palms. Pattern match Lawler up to the deep dig he runs a lot especially on 2nd downs. Do some vice cover robber with Lawler on 2nd and long. You have to take away the run and the deep ball. Force the Bomber wrs to catch and run for firsts. Finally playing collaros isn't about getting sacks. He will tear the cats up if he runs and throws. Push the pocket back on him and use contain pressure to lure him into deep balls with out throwing lanes that look like 50 50 balls but that your secondary is prepared for.
