It was a twist across his face, that was kolas man 100%.

Kola facing the wrong way blocking no one with 2 guys past him in the backfield waiting for Peterson

Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
wbbfan replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
If it happens, it’s 100% on me now -
Keys to the game ol. Pass pro especially, but also opening gaps for the run game. Zach get sharp, and quick. He had some pretty brutal throws last week. We need him to play up to expectations not down to a bad team. Wr core step up. Keric has stepped up but as of yet no one else has and we need a lot more to elevate their level of play. players to watch, the front 6, vaval, Wallace, both RBs, vaval, ayers.

Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
wbbfan replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
How many dbs has he thrown TDs to? lol shouldn’t even think about that on a game day -
Not true. He isn’t a qb. He isn’t a rb or wr. He isn’t a corner or half. Covering WRs is a specific and extremely demanding skill set. Makonzo is 200 lbs, he can play wil. he said he had the flexibility and that upside, of playing S or maybe Sam, is worth a lot. But he hasn’t taken reps at either yet.
-
Nah. Smith is NOT a hb. He has a fringe chance to be a S. Realistically, he is likely to end up a full time wil that doesn’t need to be subbed for a db in the dime pack playing the inside wall and hcf zones. He doesn’t have any of the fluidity needed to be covering guys straight up, nor does he have any of the experience in how to man or match. Mackonzo, is a real db who can play some lber. He could be a Sam, half, S or wil / dime. Canadians who can actually cover import WRs are rare. Most Canadian dbs are safety’s who camp out between the hash marks at 15-20 yard depth and play scare crow. Or teams guys to small to back up at lber. Makonzo, haggerty, Kelly, smith and shay likely mean we flip the wil to ni in the future, and stop having to use a di on a db. Likely meaning we declare 3 Canadians on D. But also having the flexibility to flip more spots, and have really good depth at the same time. We could even flip wil and Mac to go with Kramdi at Sam for an all Canadian lber core.

Maybe not yet, but he’s such a good route runner and excellent with the waggle. Not to mention tremendous football iq. He can be used so many ways. Hopefully hogan and zach get it working. Demski being banged up perpetually, and at some thing like 235k makes it so hard.
-
Truth.
-
We aren’t even using schoen well. I’d swap Mitchell for sterns atleast. We could always use a top end wr or even more depth. Qft. And some teams plays don’t involve most of the kick cover guys. The best combination of decision making, release, and football iq. Imo, release speed is the best success indicator and measurable for a qb.
-
You’re never just fine shortly after a concussion. And even if you don’t feel wonky, you are at serious risk. Diagnosed concussion should be an automatic week off. Don’t want to see his career end on a concussion. Not if it’s preventable.
-
Ahh that’s right good call. really, would make sense to train 2nd globals to do it as well. We need to go on a kola diet. Yeah saw that. So many QBs are dinged already.
-
100%. If not, we need to be grooming an in house guy to do it more aggressively. I think it was Cadwallader who took over for him in first game, he was solid, I'd continue with that. Maybe even teach a guy like MCI to do it.
-
Yeah, I think the only area the Elk stand to challenge us is Dl vs our OL. Even their OL is banged up and got a few changes. But that dl, they got some guys who get after it. Yeah, If he was in a flex tight grouping or even further out it's a nightmare for defences. Do you put a lil guy on him? He might pancake then still come in and seal another guy. do you take a good dl who can 1v1 away from the play? I'd love to see some Eli motion. Really screw with defences.
-
Hopefully Laroux has a better game this week in his place. He was shakey, and got roughed up a couple times.
-
Tbh, a lot of people had a similar opinon of Mos as a player. And Wade.
-
Jokes aside, I would not hesitate to run 6ol with eli in on both passing and run downs. I'd much rather have him in vs the edmonton DL, than a banged up NI wr or Sterns(to get cooley on).
-
If any thing, it makes sense to keep any one banged up out after a short turn around week. Especially a guy like Demski. Similarly if you have any one like Adam’s last year who isn’t up to par on playing a longer than college length schedule in the year it’s a good time to move guys around. Every one a starter after all right?
-
I mean, it was week 3 of the regular season. If it were LD or later, He'd have a point. But undisciplined, sloppy play early in the season, especially in a Sask game, is nothing noteworthy. Fact is, with TCs being soo soft now, and vets playing a fraction of pre season, the first month of the regular season is the real pre season. Stephen A. has charisma? LOL, I mean he's got something Wilson doesn't. I think wilson views him self as a Bomani Jones type, but really is one of the filler guys who used to be on Around the Horn, who tried to fit in with bad hot takes and edgy crap but just swung and missed. I'll say, he had some points. I've seen plenty of bad games with thrilling endings up here. Way too many games where the refs take over. And I dislike the TSN presentation as much as anyone. But that's all low-hanging fruit, none of which is easily fixed.
