  1. Barrin simpson, and ryland wickman imo.
  2. I considered him, but honestly I didnt dislike the don. I know plenty of people do, but he was a very early players coach and you knew what to expect with him. The mtl bomber rivalry was great and heated as can be back then. I hated some als players, like philion. But I kind of appreciated the dons style of coaching and strategy. Play hard hyper aggressive football for the whole game. They played a TON of cover 0 and if teams didnt like it, they could come up with ways to beat it. Imo that defense was a big reason why the 5wide spread is soo popular now. Teams tried every thing to beat that rush and what really ended up doing it was spreading the field and throwing quick patterns.
  3. Lol thanks. Isnt it though? I mean him and chris jones are cut from the same cloth. Both really good X and O coaches. But man I cant stand either. Idk if I could name another coach like them even going way back.
  4. EH it was so so imop. He says a lot with out actually saying any thing. The fact he doesnt list half the rider alignments is pretty lame. He has 9 formation alignments where he doesnt list them. And only lists 3. He doesnt list the heavy 11 set either team uses. And he clearly isnt factoring in the amount of times the bombers come out in a single back set and motion to an empty back field. The bombers use motion in the formation a LOT. From wr sweep, to pinching guys into a TE slot or flexing backs out of the back field. The riders variety comes more directly. The amount of times we pinch woli or adams into an 11 formation for runs is gigantic. If you factored motion in the splits would actually look very similar for 5-1 and 4-2/11 formations. We very seldom run any one from the fb positions. Its not even an Hback role, its a blocking te. The bombers offense has diversified in scheme usage. Yankee concept using play action and timing routes at the vacated Lbers positions to guys like bailey and demski. Weve added dagger, a spread buck sweep, stick and more. The riders have done so by just adding packages and formations. The real big difference in the bomber offense is that its unpredictable. You used to be able to anticipate the run calls with tremendous accuracy under plop. Now, not only will we pass or run in any situation, we PA a lot, and we will run the same play out of any formation. That works because we have multiple effective offensive schemes. Fast screens to wrs, sweeps, runs, timing in/outs to guys like lawler, etc. The riders in 19 had 1 major hot route and a running game. With the ability to buy time and chunk yards with CF legs. Teams have covered the timing slant differently, the riders dont have the OL to focus on the run (or the rb), and teams arent bum rushing CF and letting him spin to freedom.
  5. I hope its an honest look and not some primping of the situation for rider fan clicks. Mcadoo was run out of town on a rail for CFs failing. Maas, despite being a world class dbag, is a great oc. Right now CF is rick mirer 2.0 He got by on a lot of support and simple plays. When teams adjusted to what he did and really studied game film the holes were gigantic. Its all on CF right now, he has to improve if his career is going to be any thing more than a flash in the pan. If any thing the quality of this article will be a major judgement of ferguson. The CFL needs good reporting in the worst way. My fingers are crossed for a great piece.
  6. I really dont get how people talk about maas, their wrs and all these issues involving their deep ball. CF tosses horrible deep balls, he's been missing guys by a mile. Their ol sucks. But it sucked in 19. He buys time with his feet and still misses down field. Teams have adjusted to what he does and have taken away his strength. He hasnt grown or adjusted at all.
  7. You may be right. Any one who looks at the tackle stat and goes oh Williams over alford should no longer get a vote or have a job in professional cfl coverage.
  8. Or hire Maggie the monkey that used to spin a wheel for nhl picks. Watch Maggie skunk the cfl pundits and pay them accordingly.
  9. Collaros legs alone are 30 percent of our success. If he didn't have the ability to avoid the rush and make plays down field we don't have the 19 Grey Cup or the western final this year. Every one is important and the ol is great. But teams send more than 4 or 5 rushers frequently.
  10. Idk. If I was collaros I wouldn't want to leave and certainly wouldn't want to go to any team with out a great ol. It'll be interesting to see. I'm a big believer in Dane if I was tor or mtl id go after him hard.
  11. Thanks for the update.
  12. Dane Evans will be hottly sought after. I don't think collaros goes to Toronto with that ol but a bunch of teams will make lucrative offers to him.
  13. Pretty much from what I understand. I feel like virtually every player will be a fa
  14. Honestly idk how you even keep guys like that. We will play now but we won't get the vaxx to play when it counts. Gtfoh idc who it is. They should just bring in the 5 fattest people they can find. Atleast they could take up room and force the pass rusher to go wider around the edge. Maybe they should call pop Warner teams and find some ol. Least then they'd get more disciplined players with some heart.
  15. Cal ssk will be the worst western semi team combination in memory. Gonna be 5 to 2 with all singles on missed field goals.
  16. League prolly tried to piss test ac again. So he went into hiding. Idk If that ol can get worse. Hard for fringe speed guys when they lose a step. Looks like the mafia dodged a bullet. I would love for them to bring in some fresh blood for the pr and get orange and agudosi in a game. It'd be great to see some Grant reps at wr too. Idk whats up with agudosi on the suspended list wish one of the reporters would ask about him.
  17. Hell yeah. Especially if we win 3 in a row with next year being in Regina.
  18. Yep I had a post about it on the Anniverary in I think 2019. It's one of my favorite all time football stories. The north Cumberland fake baseball team used a semi pro ringer team to beat up on heismans team too. You don't mess with him lol. At one point a player was drug off by a pack of wild dogs. The starting qb for Cumberland was knocked out cold on the opening kick off and came back twice only to be carted off. A couple players snuck off the field and hid behind the score board. Truly the wildest game of football ever. If any one hasn't watched it or heard of the game I strongly recommend the video.
  19. Mos may well go down as the goat of bomber coaching. We've had several greats but few have had that really long sustained career here. Mos could well be the hc here in 10 years.
  20. Off topic. Wonder if this team is more dominant than the current bomber squad. Imagine having some one hang 106 on you lol. 13 passing tds. Sounds like the type of coach the riders would love. https://www.google.com/amp/s/247sports.com/college/usc/ContentGallery/Justyn-Martin-13-touchdowns-one-game-106-0-win-174099152/Amp/
  21. Or we are going to roll one less imp lber and dress an di db. I don't think any of the starters will come off the game day roster they are all just too good. Mos and hall seem happy to rotate the ni lbers with kyrie idk that we need another imp lber.
  22. Would love that. Since he is on the rbs pr we would have to claim him and start him. And I'm not sure he wants to be this far from family. If not probably orange goes up the depth chart and we pick up a random free agent ni wr. Could grab Terrell Jana from the riders pr too. Passing them off is always a bonus.
  23. Yeah. Rocquemore is talented. I'd expect us to dig up some other ni wr and maybe we will see orange get into game action finally.
  24. Yeah I wouldn't sit him either. Team needs to stay sharp. Can't give games away.
  25. Add a couple roster spots. 1 ni qb 1 more di 2 more Canadian back ups. Teams need more depth at wr and db ofc qb too. But the ol and more chances to get into games for young developmental ol. Change command center reviews. Have 3 officials review the play separately then go with consensus. Cap the number of players on the ir and suspended list who haven't dressed for a game. No more 30 man extended pr for the riders. Fix the injury report and penalize teams for shenanigans. Like ford said in our game add junior players to the draft. Maybe have 2 spots for k p ko. If teams run 1 player for all 3 roles give em an extra ni. Been a whole lot of terrible punting and kicking this year. Lots of times teams would be better off just going for it on 3rd down.
