Lulay almost picked, hits a flukey completion on a floater he overthrew his intended receiver by 10 yards and falls into Nick Moore, then picked on the convert. I feel like Hamilton's D is going to score some point tonight.

Our D plays a lot of zone, but it's not lacking aggression in play calls. Tons of blitzes, at times that's what burns them when an entire side of the field has one guy on it and the opposition executes a good release to beat the blitz. Also play a lot with no traditional safety and Cover 2 with Loffler in the box which is a pretty aggressive coverage shell in this day and age of passing football.

BC's OL sucks something awful. Great opportunity for our D next week.

Reilly getting his receivers killed tonight, and taking a ton of shots too.

Randle blew contain on the punt, he came way inside as the ball bounced around when he should have stayed outside to force Jackson inside. Once Jackson got to the sideline it was a damn scramble.

I think they need to incorporate some kind of read option package for the Fever. This offence is going to earn every yard and that change of pace could be huge, particularly when there is a struggle just to get decent first down yardage. I notice they are running a bit of it no huddle after 3rd down conversions on the 1st down play. Fever's legs combined with the fact he has a decent arm make him a weapon in short bursts.

Toth is brutal. Westwood' delivery isn't great but at least there is a shred of intellect there. Toth started talking about the penalty in the 14 Grey Cup on Hamilton equating it as a blown call with the one last night, but that one for sure was a penalty. And then Westwood says that and then Toth says I know. So what are you saying then? It goes round and round. I usually can't make it through a full segment of that crew since Toth joined.

I have no idea how they are tallying pressures live. Our list seemed horribly inaccurate last night. I believe they gave a couple of Jeffcoat's to Westerman. Wonder if they will adjust as the statistician watches film.

And Ray's passes. Throwing knucklers, maybe he can start for the Jays.

Knox got eaten up by Coombs and Whitaker in coverage. They blitzed him a ton and that worked.

Same issue for Nichols. One pretty good half, one pretty bad half, but at least no big screw ups.

Heath and Randle were huge. Leggett had some big plays in coverage. Great combo of coverage and pressure forced a lot of double clutches by Ray and a lot of bad throws/drops.

What channel is the national broadcast on? I can only find the local Argos feed.

Good ball skills, struggles with when to jump routes and when to make a tackle. Not a very sure tackler, big hitter.

I truly doubt that they are drawing up plays with Westerman taking an inside move as much as he is and leaving the edge completely exposed. It's just selfish play, and to nobodies benefit because he's not getting to the QB at all. The game is to collapse the pocket with the QB in it. If you give the QB an entire side of the pocket open to escape it nullifies what Poop and Nevis can do. The Bombers need Westerman to play disciplined, otherwise I expect we'll continue to see more of Corney.

Maybe you've discovered that there's no such position as defensive halfback in American football.

Not enough ambulances left to handle the shock trauma when the guy stands too close and sets it off.

The scary part of losing Wild is losing his role in pass coverage. He often plays a deep half as a safety (cover 2) and they do a lot of shifting of positions between Wild, Leggett and Loffler. I don't believe Knox is quite as experienced with coverages, he's more a straight up LB. Expect to see him blitzing a lot.

They just need a common sense approach. Presumably the people reviewing understand football. The explanation could be that the QB had one read to the opposite side of the field and threw there without even looking to the entire side of the field where contact took place. The refs on the field follow this logic, why wouldn't the reviews? It's a major inconsistency. There are the rules, but more importantly how they are applied.

Maybe because the opponent wouldn't expect that play to him either?

Likely an INT if it's "on the money." That was a throw away because JFG was the only receiver in the route off the flea flicker misdirection and he was covered. That time the misdirection didn't work.

I've never been a fan of McManus. Every interview I hear of him basically insinuates that he's hammered all the time and it's more awkward than funny.

Welcome to football

He has redeeming qualities. The overthinking, trying to outsmart D is not one of them. We have good players, let them play.

They don't commit to the run enough to even know IMO. The run plays Harris gets are predictable. I think Flanders could be a massive difference maker though. **** Lapo is frustrating.
