you arent normally the guy to say atodaso, but... What is strange to me is why we didnt bring back one of, awoleke, casher, or montgommery from camp. Those guys killed it. I know only two are ends but cmon those guys were great in camp and pre season. I dont think position is weighted very heavily in terms of the PR.

I feel like we could use petermann more in that type of role. But I can think of a bunch of spots we could use the extra depth at all the same. Especially DB.

So, Apparently Johnny Football Will Start For Als.

its either gonna be we chase manziel and see pipkin in the 4th after 10 sacks and 4 picks with a couple defensive TDs, or a LOT of Bomber fans will be hyperventilating in the 4th. Would be our kind of luck to be the first team to lose to manziel as he makes high lights all down south. but naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. He still has no OL and is still johnny manziel. Im torn on this one. Id be the last one to pull a young qb. And pipkin has shown the most life of what the als have. But dude is tossing up ints like hes danny mac-nichols. (i kid i kid) Id probably use a 2 qb system the rest of the way for the als. Even rotate in adams if one of the other two is in a deep struggle. Dont bounce back n forth with who is the starter this year. Establish that they are in a dog fight going into camp next year to try and lock up a qb1 job. -
At this point, everyone controls their own destiny outside of mtl and to. Win out and you're in.

yep ill be in the stands again too. but i sit higher up in the 231 range. Midfield, covered, great price, great angle love it.
-
isnt he coming off a major knee or ankle injury too? boobie and poop. with names like that how could we lose?
-
I find harris to be pretty meh. But i agree on masoli. All of the second tier guys are far behind the top tier. Even in the top tier, I consider BLM a good bit behind mike reilly.
-
Harris wasnt good overall last year, masoli just turned it around with june jones part way through last year, ray is made of glass and cant play enough to qualify for a ranking any more and same with lulay. Going into the season a reasonable argument could be made for a 3rd spot behind BLM and Reilly. Its a different tier in that 3rd spot though. Its sub elite. Right now id probably give masoli the edge despite playing in a niche (max pro) offense and lacking TD production. The real change is 1, nichols has gone from arguably the top of the 2nd tier to probably not in it at all anymore. And we now have some young guys barking at the heels of the 3rd tier of serviceable qbs threatening to put them out of work.
-
With respect to that, hardrick can not get healthy soon enough. Or foketi even. Neuf at tackle is a crime against the football gods. Jeffcoat sucks to lose too. Derek jones might actually take lofflers starting job with the new saftey role. I really hope two of those guys get healthy fast. Even corney to fill in more for jeffcoat would be fantastic.

New Era will be CFL jersey manufacturer
wbbfan replied to White Out's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
When it comes to uni changes, less is more. Go with the best/fan favorites for each team and stick with it. Having yearly third uniforms variants is fine. But every time we see a new manufacturer it seems like a few teams get really pooched. -
the longer the losing streak, the longer the posts get. if we miss the playoffs this year they will rival novels by Dostoevsky.
-
That without Jeffcoat, mo, poop, corney, and heavy action for rookie dbs. Iirc jeffcoat and poop are 1 and 2 in pressures for us.

petermann and simonise arent possession recievers. Petermann is a YAC guy and simonise is a deep threat. Demski is also a yac guy. Soo thats one possession wr. Adams is easily better then that and would be much better off on a team that has a better then hail mary chance on every pass deeper then 20. Thompkins has shown the same level of quality he did in his nfl starts. Dressler brings it and performs whenever he is healthy which is a legitimate concern. Doesnt matter who you have at WR when you cant get the ball to them.
-
Petermann on the nfl combine field would have lit it up and been drafted late or priority signed. Simonise was on an NFL team that wanted him back. And wolo is essentially just an IMP with a ben cahoon level canada connection. This is far from the jamie stoddard days of NI WR talent. I mean Demski is one of if not our best YAC receivers.

So can we start talking about firing MOS yet?
wbbfan replied to White Out's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Everyone is replaceable. One day we die/retire/move on and the world keeps turning. That said you dont pull the pin on a coach or player without something better in the wings unless they become a mike kelly level disaster. We can always talk about it, but as a franchise, nothing will be done this season. Mos wont become a disaster like that, and we cant get anything better right now anyway. In the offseason we could look at someone like claybrooks, but that is a big step back with a first time HC. What we could look at but is still a low percentage chance is changing a CO. Both plop and hall have performed poor enough at times to warrant consideration. Imo while plop tends to out-think himself too often, he is a fantastic teacher and excellent at coaching players. Not just the system. Hall used to adjust well in game but hasnt been doing that this year. And the overall team tackling is poor. See too many bad angles, arm tackles and whiffed hits. When one guy does it, its a player problem. When tons of players over extended time do it, especially ones who normally wouldnt, its a coaching problem. -
the secondary in general was good for much of the game. they are hamstrung by a dung system but even considering that did very well. If we didnt gift the riders the tds on our offense...
-
1 Alexander 2 woli/Petermann 3 Sayles with a bunch of good tackles and two big pass break ups. Hh Bryant for tracking down collars from behind down to the other side hash marks for a big tackle.
-
Does any one know if the park n rides will be running early today? I expect nichols to either start out playing like the ball is on fire or to see streveler by half time. If he doesnt start well, it is gonna get ugly fast.
-
Gonna be a wet game tnite. I feel like rainy/wet turf game favors us.
-
Im happy with nubrady and bennett as the young guys. all is well that ends well.
-
Its true, but that a whole other era of the CFL now. Even in the early 2ks lots of teams played out of a pro form. RB, FB, QB under center. While the accomplishments of that time in football are great, they dont really have bearing today. Going back to the well with him was a poor decision at the time. No the title and build up hype came in 2004.
-
If he wasnt gonna play this week or be bloody close to ready last week they would have left him on the 6 game. The als are gonna be a tougher match up this time around. No one likes getting lit up that bad.
-
I dont really want a rookie HC again, but if it was gonna be any one itd be him.
-
id actually say he is about the same as his average here right now, and better then his worst year here. But that is my perception. I also dont think he is badily injured right now more banged up and being treated precautiously. if it was an important late-season game he would have dressed and played imo. He is not getting any younger, but still no doubt in my mind the wr core is better then it was.
