Great blitz pickup by Kolanowski.

Completely did. He runs a curl and just stops. Then his guy just stays on top of him and looks down Collaros eyes to jump Demski's route.

Montreal needed 7 there.

Even when we have a great team we get stuck on making one useless guy into a player that he isn't. On offense, guy is a fine returner.

Grant's guy comes in for the ball because Grant stops moving.

Well that's the start Montreal needed.

Bombers win toss and take the ball.

White out night in Montreal. Get to wear our nicer ones, and next week the weird 3rd jerseys.

Kind of comes down to Bighill and how we use him as a rover. Clements sets the edge and turns the play in....to no one, because Bighill is out way past the hash chasing a slot receiver on the strong side. Notice they didn't run that play against a 30 front. Think we'll see a lot of LB's on the field tonight.

Doesn't really apply to sports injuries for professional athletes. Otherwise the gaming industry would be ruined. It's more teams being careful with guys who are likely to return to play without being fully recovered.

Well they've turned him into a running back since he's been in Chicago. His strength is having the ball not going downfield to get it.

Wudduya lookin at my gut for?

If you want a laugh look at Goldeyes ticket prices. Can go to a MLB game in almost every park for less.

I really wouldn't expect any NFL cuts back in season anymore unless they are truly done with the NFL. By the time they get cut and decide to come north they'll have 3-4 games to play here plus playoffs. $150,000 prorated plus playoffs is like less than $50,000 Canadian. If they got on a NFL PR they'd make more than that in 2 weeks. Better to wait and see.

The guys can all run the routes as they are drawn up on the page. But guys usually have a few that are stronger for them based on their strengths like speed, physicality, how strong their hands are and how they can adjust their hands and body to the ball high low inside outside. Then the big thing is how guys are able to adjust their routes to the coverage, and in a way that gives the QB an opportunity to find them whether they are the first read or it's more of a scramble play. It's all about gaining leverage on the defender and then breaking into open space, might not be much space but enough. The chances of someone getting completely wide open basically come down to a defense completely ******* up their own coverages. There's the physical piece and the mental piece and only a few great ones truly master both. You'll see a guy who is 5'7 with a 4.6 40 dominate the league and a 6'5 guy with a 4.3 who can do 30 reps at 225 fail repeatedly because he doesn't get the mental aspect.

Schoen is signed. Only can leave for NFL.

Lenius could get some good blocking on his film for his next NFL shot if he wants to play here. Could use a tight end.

I had seen Dressler in Grand Forks because one of my former teammates was playing on UND teams with him, but holy **** when you saw it in the CFL with Michael Bishop at that 2008 Banjo Bowl...guy can get open on every route in the book, run by anyone, catch everything, dive fully extended and catch the ball. Broke my heart that Sask got him and we didn't get him until his body was breaking down.

I mean it works for Schoen or Lawler who are 6'3. We're talking about the catch radius on a guy who is 5'6 and not a burner. Haven't seen a QB who can throw that guy open in coverage. The way zones are matched to routes now good luck getting someone that open all by himself without a DB having time to recover. Might happen once a game and he'd have to be in the first couple reads for it to get hit.

Arecenaux is alright. At least he's playing. Not sure what they see at all in Duron Carter. Looks like he doesn't even want to play football anymore.

They'll stay in range but they'll have their eyes into the backfield and jump other routes. That's my point. He's not really a threat as a receiver, maybe if he had burner speed. One thing they could do is run him on a vertical route as the third receiver to one side with the other two routes being posts after he motions across like he would for a sweep to try to open him up wide-open for a bomb to the sideline.

Not really because he has no chance to win a 50-50 ball. He'll have to be wide-open to be a threat on a vertical route. The DB doesn't have to sit on top of his routes they can run with him and under him, and he's not like a Weston Dressler or Don Narcisse where he can be a little guy but win with technique/route running. Using Grant as a regular receiver is a turnover waiting to happen.

Yeah either one of those guys needs a role. Can't just run them on the field for a play when they are going to get a sweep and run them off. Grant did nothing on those sweeps until he was in the game regularly and teams couldn't key on him. But they either need to carve out a role for him as a receiver or limit his usage a bit more, especially when we have different options on the roster. So much RPO stuff we could run off McCrae in the backfield with Oliviera that would open up the field for run or pass.

No kidding. Especially when there's a guy like Harrison who's a big body who can probably at least draw coverage to more routes to open up the field for everyone else even if he's not going to be a big producer. One thing I've noticed on watching/rewatching is that Grant does not run much variety of routes, crosser, out, sit down curl. That's it. The coverage is right on his hip all the time. He can't get open and he's not a threat to go deep, just kinda out there. We do need Grant to play some so that it's not completely obvious when he's out there to run a sweep or get a quick screen, but it's not every play.

I don't believe Harrison has touched the field from my viewing. McCrae played a couple snaps as a receiver in Calgary and is on kickoff return with Grant.
