  1. 2020 CFL Free-Agents

    in Blue Bomber Discussion

    You could put together a couple of really good teams with all those names, a few are getting a little long in the tooth but I guess its always good to have a few "vets" on your team. 

    Going to be interesting to watch player signings unfold. How much influence will winning a championship have on player retention?  Will it matter or is dollars the bottom line for a CFL player?

    when we are starting deep in hamilton territory it doesnt matter though does it?

    Correct... I agree, if the Bombers fielded a punt on or inside Hamilton's 45 they would have been in Medlock's range, but that wasn't the case.  If that's your argument can you provide the stats as to where the Bombers fielded the ball on each one of Medlock's field goal attempts? The offense moved the ball into scoring range, the Bombers weren't "gifted" with 18 points by virtue of punts fielded deep inside Hamilton's half of the field.  At least not in the game I watched.

    A bunch of fgs from deep in the red zone too. While starting drives at the hamilton 50 twice, 41, and 24 with out getting a td on any of those drives. 6 drives of 4 or fewer plays, and harris shouldve gotten more carries. Not to mention we shouldve included more deep stuff for collaros. 

    It was a solid game call. With a few really good play calls. But over all Id say it was a bit better then par for the course in a lapo offense. At this point I dont think buck would do any worse. 

    Seems to me the talking heads on TSN were saying the Bombers put points on the board  7 out of their last 8 drives... Remind me what the final score was again? 

  6. The Other Bomber Forum

    I really try not to compare one to the other, it comes down to content and the maturity level of the posters for me. Lipstick and eyeliner isn't that important to me... My last comment was merely suggesting the other site still appears to be having stability issues and might not be dependable (the best choice) over the course of the Grey Cup weekend.

    When I did notice Jefferson on the re-watch, he seemed positioned to prevent CoFaj from escaping to his left with that spin move.  I'm not convinced he didn't do anything despite being held off the stats sheet.

    I think if you re-watch the game again take note of what the Bombers were doing on defense, they did the same thing against Calgary and Bo.  They were rushing to spots on the field, They were forcing the play and the QB into spots they weren't designed to be in, often referred to as changing the launch point. It changes the timing, a designed throwing window, the blocking scheme or angles. The defence literally controlled the play of the offence.

    This is almost like releasing your game day roster, time to declare! Like many others I've come across from the dark side as a result of it suddenly going really dark.

    Long time Bomber fan... 50 plus years.  One time season ticket holder, now an out of province (Thunder Bay) fan. I actually signed up as a member on this site shortly after Richard Harris's passing. At the time I found the other site more active and tended to hang there. I've long ago forgotten the username I signed up here with so I opted to go with an alternate email address and my username  from the other site.

    No particular preference for one site or the other really, its all football to me.

    Winning in our beautiful Blues 

    Perfect 

    Actually I just read that although the Bombers are the officially the home team and will dress in Calgary's locker room they intend on  sticking with their road whites for the Grey Cup game... the uniforms they have been wearing for the last two wins, the sames ones they wore during the game that punched their ticket to the Grey Cup game.
