No, wrong. Being beaten is different than getting your ass kicked. You don't get your ass handed to you simply by the other team being really really good. It takes both that and a pants pooping on the other side. Like I said, nuance isn't your strong suit.

Anybody out there saying that? I see people saying the Bombers got their asses handed to them because they played a piss poor game. You on the other hand are out here saying the lions were the only factor in how the game unfolded as it did. And surprise! You're wrong again.

Bombers vs Als - Canada day weekend edition
17to85 replied to The Zipp's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Did I say he was terrible? Hall has a long career and his flaws are well known. I also say ad nauseum Hall it pretty good at making adjustments.... he's a guy that can succeed but he can also make it harder than it has to be. He doesn't hide blitzes well. His whole thing is force the short throws. That doesn't work when your players aren't executing as well. -
He is just doing his usual shtick where he can't recognize nuance and things are either black or white, and since the lions played well then they must simply have made the Bombers look bad.
-
You seen anyone denying that? The issue here is that you are pigheadely insisting that it was all the lions making the Bombers look like crap. As I've been saying for far too long, it can be both. Lions played well AND the Bombers played poor. That's usually how ass kickings happen.

This is such a pants on head ******** comment to make. HAI GUYZ!!! TEH SKY IS BLUE!!!11!!1 BC played better than winnipeg did in the game, no ****... that's why winnipeg lost and BC won. That's not what anyone is arguing about. That wasn't the usual effort or execution level from many of the bomber players or coaches. THAT is what people are talking about. You can't deny that. The OL through 2 weeks was dominant and looked worse than the times we trotted out the likes of Skinny Dan Gyetvai at left tackle. But yeah must be totally just because of what BC was doing. sometimes guys have a stinker of a game. Did BC play well? yup they did. Did they look better than they would have because of some poor play from the Bombers? yup certainly happened too.

Anyone who ever thought thus ended well for prigozhin was a fool.

Yeah but the points are misleading anyway. Bombers could have kicked some more field goals if they wanted to massage the score, but the fact that they were just a few big plays from having a shot does say something about that team too. Scores, stats, all these things can lie. For as many problems as the Bombers had the lions really didn't score that much. He'll even their first td came because notnonce but twice dbs didn't even turn around to look for the ball and just ran through the receiver. Offense stunk to high heaven, defence had some cracks but wasn't as objectively bad outside a few plays.

I'd rather they don't even try and pressure him. He only does good stuff on broken plays. Just let him sit in the pocket all day and he will beat himself. -
You know both perspectives can be true right? I mean christ I have never seen Stanley Bryant play that badly and he's arguably the best ever OL in cfl history. So in that aspect yes I say it was uncharacteristic pants pooping by a bomber player.

Ritchie Hall likes to fall back into these old habits. He has the worse disguised blitzes in all of history. Qbs don't need to stop and think, they just known where to go when the pressure comes and they make the easy completion. Seen it a million times. -

Darby has been fine so I disagree with your take. Really been the corners that are the #1 issue. -

Honestly I don't think DL is the issue. No one is getting pressure if the reads and throws are easy to complete. Which is the issue here. Secondary, especially the corners, have not been good enough and Ritchie Hall hasn't been doing enough to make qbs have to hesitate. Just letting them play pitch and catch. -

That was my first exact thought too. I mean christ you have one job in that situation, don't turn the ball over. We're I a stamps fan (and thank God I'm not) I'd be livid -
I know right? Paying his lawyers? Legit shock

That throw in overtime by maier... what on earth was he thinking? It was covered, it was underground... it was extremely dangerous.... just all around stupidity. That guy us not a good qb. -
They're both incredibly shitty people.
-
well that's one guy that the world would be a better place if he were to somehow fall out of a window
-
That's all dependant on your perspective. Bomber fans focus on their team, ie. Yeah they sure did suck, suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked... whereas lions fans will focus on the play of the lions and how good they played.

Alternatively, Hamilton just ******* sucks -
Ritchie Hall doing his stupid blitz everyone not covering somebody thing that he likes to do. It's totally ineffective because it makes for too easy completions
-
So which of Alexander and Nichols do you have him ahead of?
-
Actually this is a good point. Considering some of the holes the run game was getting a back like Augustine might have been able to make some big things happen if used.

They just got it handed to them plain and simple. Too much talent and pride on that team to not bounce back though.
