I hope reinebold gets another STs job some where in the league. He did a great job for the cats in that role. And hes a guy you just gotta love.

Wild doesnt play mlb or fill the blitz well. Hes not really that guy. Which is too bad. We could really use a LT like stand up pass rusher, who can scrape to the ball and drop back now and then. I agree. I just dont see a better spot to sacrifice at atm. If one of our wrs doesnt pick it up quickly, or dressler stays out maybe drew woli draws in as a 2nd starting NI wr as mentioned in another thread. I worry that with our system short of finding that perfect guy or adapting our system to some one (like bear woods) should another similar quality MLB come available we will see the same problems with different faces.

About as much as starting hurl at MLB. Its more a sign of how we have had to adjust our ratio. Though if denny doesnt re find some of that magic from last year we might be better off with an NI in his place. Which is sad to say as a denny fan. what if they are smart enough to spell toboggan? I dont think we could get a 12 pack of empties for richards and 5 bucks. I read the hardrick piece, another great write up. Only makes you love a guy like that even more. Allways seems to be a positive force and a leader I hope his career here is long and fruitful. Would love to see him move here so his son becomes NI eligible too Hardrick for a dad, track star for a mom, sounds like a promising start.

both imp DTs are too good to be moved down to rotational in place of thomas. The current rotation with thomas coming in and giving us the ability to go extra imp db is the best case scenario. We dont create squat for pressure with our blitz packages, we cant down grade the only source we have of pressure.

Love his attitude and aggression too. Who has that many belt fights with soo few matches? no one even close. I do hope he waits for a bit more seasoning before he wades into the best of the best. He gets soo much better every match hes gonna be crazy in another 10-15. When he went to the corner and baited marriaga it was beautiful. Hes like roberto duran with out the hands of stone meets ali.

I didnt watch the ufc this weekend (yet) hear it was an entertaining card though. I watched the lomanchenko vs marriaga. lomanchenko is one of the most entertaining fighters of any combat sport to watch. I showed some one the fight who never watches any fights from any organizations and he was gob smacked by the matrix.

Hes a blood n guts type guy. A real football player like him, not just an athlete can often be more prone to injuries if you try to protect them. Wild, mo, and hurl is a lot better then what we have now. It wont fix systemic problems, but we arent going to fix those with a player either. Hurl and the MLB spot is one of the biggest i would like to see an upgrade at, but would also be maybe the hardest spot to upgrade by it self. Idk where we would start another NI to go IMP there. And a starting NI mlber thats an upgrade to hurl isnt some thing we can pull out of our butt. Poop, and jeffcoat are way too good to not have as starters. Hey we should have addison richards back him up / rotate too!

Thought about that as well, he has the quickness/speed for sure but at his now 267 weight its not a position he could maintain very long. Bear woods oh wait. Idk what talent would look great at mlb in our system tbh. It been mentioned a few other times in other threads and chats but we could get a cover saftey and have loffler take hurls roll. Have him play more of a mid field / rover position.

oh i dont blame the backs. they looked like world beaters the both of em.

I cant even remember him being any thing but the short wr version of mike sellers.

nik lewis light, and considering thorpe is built like a good size cfl RB thats saying some thing haha. Very much the same play style though good comparison.

2 backs, combined 10 of our 14 carries though >.<

I hear that, i watched the pre leaked 4-5 episodes last year and was miserable waiting for the next one haha. Its just a couple days so i indulged but if it was a bunch i wouldnt do it again.

Watched the pirated release of GoT s7-e4. No spoilers of course. Just its cookin up for a great back half of the season.

We sure are getting spoiled with good games this year. Good games make for good OnS.

they could call PI twice on every single passing play of every game.

Thats true, but we need to not give up 10 yards per carry to the feature back and good yardage to any one who carries. That isnt purely on hurl. Our DL getting after the qb soo much is gonna open lanes. But our front 7 need to limit those back breaking long runs. And while not limited to hurl, that does include him.

I dont think they are biased against us. No grand conspiracy here. Its just the way we play with an edge is not advantageous with the current rule enforcement. This is what happens with a nasty first OL. The reffing in the league IS problematic though. No consistency in PI calls. I think if they put PI back to how its supposed to be in Tackle Football with the challenge change the game would improve drastically and the refs would have room to breath.

1 MO. after a rough start the D played really well against a dangerous offense. 2 Nichols and the whole passing attack. Missed some near big plays by a tiny bit, and got jobbed by the refs a couple times. But nichols with a chance to win the game drove the team. JFG stepped up early with a ton of catches. Lankford with the long bomb, and thorpe was making some thing happen every time he touched the ball. That guy is a real keeper. 3 Chris randle. The huge fumble recovery, catch play which was crazy. Seldom gets his due credit for just being a blanket. HH loffler smashing i think sinopoli with seconds to go leading to a ball in the dirt. Human truck.

if we had an OC competent to run such a scheme sure. Some 2 back action, harris in a H back type back field some would be great. But weve seen a decent number of games with flanders as DI and 0 use.

Thats the question, he was a prized returner in college and returner prospect so i would think so but at the cfl level every thing changes.

They dont give up in the 4th. But a team that rides the momentum and disappears for half the game isnt exactly quit free. Still making it interesting at worst in the clutch is far better then what we were subjected to prior to the mos era.

Hope thorpe steps up. also hope we phase out the dressler run packages.

If he wants to be edgy and controversial, leak an idea of what type of injures guys actually have. Or snoop some info about neglist etc. Hard ball them in the presser over some one like bear woods etc. not saying thats a good idea, but if u want to be the edgy reporter that would be drastically better imo. Agree about that form of media not being needed any more. With knuckles on the radio, and taits articles on the bombers site other such media are kind of a waste imo. His articles on BB.com are just fantastic. Like, tait has allways been gold. But him just focusing on the blue is great. IF any thing id like to see more from doug brown. His experienced player pov, kind of insider stuff that isnt tilted for or against the blue, or the league is just great. The team, and the league need more :young" media/broadcasters like him.

QFT. Id say im pretty critical of coaching, and mos in general. But Idk how wiecek can say he doesnt take responsibility. Every time hes interview after the team struggles, or loses he takes all the responsibility. Mos isnt the most hated coach on the staff today. I think more people dislike our oc/dc then mos. Most hated bomber hc is a joke. Attendance is down a bit aside from the couple freak markets. The jets in part dip the bombers attendance once their season starts up. The team being average in record and only turning it around mid way through last year has more to do with it. The dark ages 2.0 really rocked the blue fan base, they will need to sustain some winning and play at a high level to rebuild the base back to the point we draw 30k every home game. not to mention stop pooping the bed at home. This is a poor attempt at a scape goat. The problem with the blue isnt one dimensional.
