    There is absolutely 0 chance Wade Miller called anyone on the carpet. That's ******* hilarious. What would have been said was "what do you need to turn it around? How much money... What can I do to help?"

    That's all that would have ever been said. The Trinity are in lockstep, for starters (I'm fairly certain) and if ANYONE calls MOS on the carpet (a laughable notion!) it's gonna be Walters. 

    I think a lot of you are overthinking things (I know I know... It's what we do) especially in regards to the roster next week. I don't think you're going to see much in terms of changes. After a performance like last night, we'll see the bare minimum. 

    Alright, fine. I accept that explanation. The true crime would be to sit Streveler behind Collaros & never play his again this season.

    Yeah lapo in year 2 made him a gimmick and then Pierce had his head up his ass last year and didn't let streveler throw for some stupid reason. 

    Last night is basically the qb he was in year one.

    Who now has a lot of experience & understands the 3 down game which he didn't back in 2018-19.

    Yeah we need stability on the ol at all costs right now. Last place I’m making changes unless forced. 
     

    He danced around a lil on what actually changed, but im just glad he did what it took finally. 
     We just have to keep it going in the weekly prep too. 

    Maybe Wade Miller called him on the carpet when they were 2-6 saying their pre season prep just wasn't good enough? Who knows??

    I heard the jawing but I couldn't tell who to attribute which comments to. I heard stuff like "Do you know who I am?" I assumed something that arrogant was coming from Betts.

    That's the trash talk I was referring to. To me, that sounded like Streveler.

    Perhaps a reminder that at times coaching and management have a bit more insight into a player's abilities than we do...as much as we might hate to admit it...lol

    Astonishing to think Buck just used him as a battering ram. I wonder if Strev would have come back if Buck was still the OC this year. Gotta be hard to be used like a mule when you know you have some thoroughbred tendencies.

    It was time for Buck to go. Thank you, BC Lions.

    I will admit..Punter guy was decent and didnt hurt us...had 1 god awful but erarned his spot till next week anyway

    Strev will get his running back....He really didnt take off and on the draw play if KOLO made his block and maintained it he had at least 10 yards minimum there. Speaking from experience take a while to get back to where you were  that first yr back..part mental...part is it just takes time once fully healed

    So glad Buck is gone....we needed new blood and ideas and ability to adapt and utilize skill sets...Jackson and Hogan are gonna be a huge difference maker for us

    All in all...first real game with all the starters....and an exy=tended camp basically with that bye week...that was a pretty damn good showing and very encouraging with the new faces...long lay off from real bullets...I think the other teams took notice and said "ohshit"

    I expect some tweaks yet...some shuffling of guys to fine tune but like what I saw....saw more intensity and hunger in this group than we saw last yr

    Rourke couldn't sustain any drive....or momo.....we had him scrambled and guessing and our back end is so aggressive receivers had no time to do much of anything against them

    Save for a couple big shots....more luck than execution B.C offense did diddly sqwuat .....

     

    It was nice to hear that Osh admitted that training camp in 2024 was too easy & he didn't work his team hard enough compared to this year. Just like myself, you, wbbfan & more than a few other discussed last season on more than a few ocassions. Glad Osh can be introspective & admit he made a mistake.

    Was at the game. Didn't notice anything that would indicate Brady was hurt. So hopefully it's not too serious. 

    Strev doesn't have that burst anymore it would appear. But he seems to be able to read the defense a lot better. He played really well. Wasn't perfect, but as good as we could have hoped for imo.

    Peterson!!! Damn. I dont know why but I was under the impression he was a global player. Where did he come from?

    Thought the O play calling was solid. Looking forward to how it develops over the year.

    Like Booch said, Viva Vaval!!! That guy has burst and doesn't appear to be afraid to run down field.

    Defense was fantastic all night. Some BS penalties cost them early. And im not sure how that long TD wasnt at minimum accidental PI. If a defender accidentally makes contact on a WR knocking him down, that's PI on defense. Have no idea what it wouldn't be the same when reversed.

    I haven't been  his biggest fan, but outside of 1 or 2 punts. Sheehan was solid. Almost pinned them at the 1 but otherwise was keeping them to the sideline. 

    Buck seems like a nice guy, but I wasnt a huge fan of his playing and his work as OC got worse and worse. Showed nothing that impressed me last night. 1 or 2 plays that had a BC wr open, otherwise Bomber Defenders were smothering wrs all night.

    Couple of points. Peterson was a Ti Cat draft pick this year but somehow he ended up here, thankfully. McInnis & Hatcher are elite receivers. They're going to make catches that other receivers won't so no surprise that they had a couple of big catches even though for the most part we bottled up the BC passing attack.

  7. This game showed me why I'm glad Buck Pierce is the hell & gone as OC. Stev's best game of his pro career. He showed he can play qb. Changed up his fundamentals this off season. He showed that if you give him the entire playbook & not just make him a one dimensional raging ground warrior or gimmicky qb he can make the throws. For that we can thank LaPo & his protege Buck Pierce. Lapo had at least a bit of imagination with Streveler in 2018 & 19. He actually used him the best at the time considering back then his limitations as an actual qb plus his inability to read a CFL defense. Pierce OTOH was just sadistic expecting him to go out there & take the punishment that he did. 

    I'm excited for Jarious Jackson as his position coach.

    How the hell was that hit on Strev by Betts after he threw the ball away while scrambling in the 4th not a penalty? The ball was well away when Betts hit him. The reffing in this league...ugh...

    The parabolic mic picked up Streveler giving Betts **** in the fourth quarter. That's okay, Betts isn't even a Top 5 DE in this league. All he can do is rush the passer & we pretty much shut him down last night. He makes way too much money for what he gives the Lions.

  9. A week ago, the Rider media & fans were bragging on social media that the Riders had the best qb room in the CFL. Think again, Priders.

    Their defense is.  If you control their pass rush they are really bad.  Last year like Jim Daley era Bombers bad in the back end.  And mostly same guys back.

    They don't seemed to have made any major changes.
