  1.  

     

    How bad is this Riders defense? Would this be considered the worst cfl defense in the last 15 years??

    15 years? No maybe 10 though, I'd have a hard time rating any defence behind the crap that Jim Daley put us through. 

     

    2005 Bombers D still takes the cake. We actually had a decent O that year with Glenn, Roberts and Milt.

     

    2004 and 2005 Bombers.  How bad was it?  They had a game where Nealon Greene threw for 300 yards........in a half.

  2. Have to say....MOS talked about playoff mode....and proceeded to coach like it (finally).   We have playoff calibre D and ST (with Wild and if Castillo is not a mirage).  

    But this O.....could still hold things up.  Yet another horrible 1st half, and finally a late TD, on a drive that required two 3rd down gambles, to go 50 yds.

     

    My major concerns with Mike...... was that somehow his attitude/intensity as a player, was not being transferred to the team as a whole, and his specility...ST's were subpar.   Watching the way he coached and his demeanor on the sidelines, the other night....it looked like he might of turned the corner on those.   Which would give us the quality HC, we invisioned, when O'Shea came aboard.

     

    Be real interesting to watch this down the stretch......

  3. First this site goes down.....then the designated TSN channel gives me stupid golf, instead of football....forcing me to scramble in the pocket, reeking of gin.   That first half induces more and steady consumption....

     

    Call it overcoming adversity......or simply playoff mode.

  4.  

    One blocked kick

    One partial blocked kick

    5-5 on FG

    2-2 on converts

    Great KO's

    Some good returns

    The kind of special teams that we had all envisioned, when MOS came aboard.

    Picard pulled (finally) and signs of emotion and passion on the sidelines, tonight. Interesting to see if this was a "turn the corner game" for O'Shea, moving forward

    Picard wasn't pulled. Upper body injury.

     

    Ok...but same result....a positive.   Picard has been an expensive bust.

  5. In my opinion the Bombers need a new OC, O'Shea needs a little more experience, and a couple player upgrades and this is a very good team. The OC is what's really holding this team back. We're not far off.

    Let me put this in a slightly different way.....

     

    The OC is absolutely terrible.... staying the course with him this year... has made it much more difficult for this team to win games

  6. BC fumbles KO.....Bombers proceed to, uh...

    ...kick a FG.

    J. Adams looses 50/50 ball to Hawkins....

    ...who runs 80 yds...to set up short BC TD pass...

    Bomber run game no-existent...

    Nichols looking shaky in 1st half again....

    27 yds of O in first quarter.....

    BC drives 75 yds for another TD..with ease....

    Arcenaux doing whatever he wants against Blue secondary...

    ....especially Demond Washington....

    ...who had an totally embarrassing half of football, all round...

    Jennings looked like a HOF quarterback....

    ..completing 15 of first 16 throws.....with all kinds of time

    Bomber D essentially spent first half in..... Also Ran Mode.

    23-9 BC at the half....they have 300 yds passing...

    Intermission: DOD dials up the gin..

    2nd half: Hall dials up the pressure....

    Jennings looks more like rookie quarterback

    Bombers get punt block from Sherman - TD for Wild.

    23-16....Adams gets pick and long return...

    Castillo hits 4th FG... in 4 attempts.....25-19 BC

    Bomber O cannot stretch the field....

    ...or run up the gut on 2nd and 2 or 3 or 4......

    6 min left: Blue throw 2.7 yd pass on 2nd and 4

    Brohm stuffed on 3rd and over a yard sneak.

    BC gets clinching 60 yd pass play...

    ...but Bombers saved by the call ( holding)

    4 min left...Blue run SECOND fake punt on 3rd and 10

    ...and get first down on direct snap to Briggs...

    Special teams in playoff mode, anyways.....

    3rd down gamble from BC 16.....

     Stoudermire "runs into" two BC defenders...

    ..freeing up Denmark for TD pass from Nichols

    Only TD of game from Bomber O...but huge

    Castillo hits his 2nd convert - tie game 26-26

    Nice KO by Castillo puts Lions in a hole.....

    Bombers get ball back at the 46, with minute and half left..

    Big second effort run by Marshall... gets them into range

    Castillo comes in for 40 yd game winning attempt....

    Hits it! But MOS had called the time out!..requiring yet more gin

    2nd attempt - the Captain from Castillo is true....

    Improbable win, with the rook kicker going 5 for 5.

    Bombers outscore BC 20-3 in half...for rare comeback..

    Shoe on other foot...Lions missed two converts...

    Turnovers and Special teams get this done...

    Ugly wins are better than moral victories...

    Empty bottles are better than full ones....
