Odds and Sods - Game 9 - Calgary Stampeders at Winnipeg Blue Bombers
BLM throws nice pass to start Stamps drive.... BLM throws bad pass in end zone for Bucknor INT... Bomber D line bringing some stunts, and pressure.... Marve has strong arm...but needs soft touch..... We spent all that money on the OL, this year - for what? Marve getting nervous in the service.... ..bailing out of the pocket on every opportunity.... ..whether he had to.....or not. Blue give up 2 sacks on 3 man rush and a max protection package..... Inexperienced QB...skeleton O playbook....real bad combination..... Roll outs, option plays, screens, pitches? Spread the field? ...like other teams are able to do..... ...even with their #2 and #3 QBs....... Bellefeuille did a nice job of putting in a game plan for Marve.. I also enjoy drinking Drano and sleeping on a bed of nails... 130 yds in Offense...in the CFL?...laughable... 16 penalties didn't help matters, either.. Bryant Turner had his best game in a while..... Westerman continues to be our best player on D..... LB Bass shows great effort and hustle.... But the D efforts completely hamstrung..... by this inept offense.... ...and two Marve INTs...that pretty well, gave Stamps 15 points... 8-3 Stamps at the half.... ...time to make adjustments at home and come out strong.. ...or get outscored 28-5.... Stamps run a great O game plan (DD) - all kinds of plays R Eric Rogers is big, smooth and deadly.... Johnson and Bucknor had some struggles at DB.... Bombers start 2nd half with Marve pick for 7... 15-3 Stamps....might as well been 150-3.... Another Calgary TD, 5 minutes later...started the ole rush to Rum Hut ...and ensured 20 minutes of garbage time.... Speaking of garbage....Brohm went in.... ....and proceeded to kill a number of prairie dogs, with pinpoint throws... ...obviously, in his 7th pro year...needs still more grooming..... Marshall is not a bad back....when we remember he plays on this team... You can still time some of the O developing plays, with a sundial..... IGF continues to stand for... Inept Group Function..... Bombers need to go back, watch the film and re-think... I need to go back check the bottle, and re-drink....

The Myth of Mike O'Shea
You start with the obvious.....get rid of Marcel. That "gameplan" for Marve, tonight was a complete joke....

Week 9 - Cal.@ Ssk., Ott.@ Tor.
Most physical team in the league.....they hit you in the mouth, for 60 minutes. Hamilton is also the best prepared team, in terms of getting out of the gate......

Marve now the backup QB?
Booch for OC! Also might make this OL more aggressive, going out and firing into people, instead of standing around in pass pro, with funny looks on their faces....

Marve now the backup QB?
Have had rotator cuff problems, torn ligaments in my ankle, herniated discs in my back, and battled through cancer......but even now...my arm is just as weak as ever... Put me in coach! I get by on my wiles...

[MERGED] Drew Willy Watch 3.0 Has Ended
Doug Berry's happiest moment ... It went just the way Doug drew it up.....

[MERGED] Drew Willy Watch 3.0 Has Ended
Last year, Willy got sacked like 60 times, and took a couple of hundred good hits - plus the abuse he took so far this year.......clock is ticking, when you are letting your QB get hammered like that..
-
Marve now the backup QB?
Trouble is that most of those lowly backups, turn out to be one hit wonders.....

Weak Links - Players edition.
Well, listening to OB, it is real nice that O'Shea has converted himself into some sort of air raid shelter, for the coaches and players on this team. But, if MOS wants to do something useful, right now.....he can start by sticking his nose farther into our special teams work. The number of critical breakdowns, the last 2 years on ST is a joke. If Tracy actually can do the job - then he is doing a real job of keeping his blinding light, under a bushel basket. Also, benching a guy or two for non-performance may help improve some people's concentration levels, as well.

Marve now the backup QB?
Brohm is just one of those guys who needs to make 10 or so good throws in a row to score a touchdown. You can get away with that when you're Ricky Ray or Kevin Glenn, but not when you're Brian Brohm. 10 or so good throws..........what are the odds on that?
-
Weak Links - Players edition.
Our team is simply not mean enough, tough enough, or coached up enough...... to run with Hamilton and Edmonton, yet
-
Marve now the backup QB?
Marve isinexperienced, unpolished and needs to work on technique. That said, he has a arm, and a set of useful legs. Brohm has neither.
-
Marve now the backup QB?
Foolish to start Marve...he is not ready. On the other hand, we have a guy with experience, who knows Marcel's system.....

[MERGED] Drew Willy Watch 3.0 Has Ended
Well, at least we attempted to upgrade the OL.......can't say the same for the coaching staff. Hope the people who rag on Willy, enjoy the new era.......

Lost by 30.....tremendous moral victory.....3 or 4 more of those, and we should hold a parade.

Fire O'Shea
Past time for MOS to get off the snide, and lay it down.....in terms of what some of his assistants are doing, and holding some players accountable for sub-par performance. Because in Star Trek parlance.....shields are dropping.

Not convinced that Hurl has the strength/speed that we need there, going forward. That said, watching Bucknor iso'd in man cover, makes me reach for my gin...

Odds and Sods - Game 7 - Winnipeg Kitty Cats at Hamiltion TigerCats
This is what I don't understand, and maybe it's because they're both not micromanagers, but when Burke was here, our D sucked, yet he didn't seem to do anything to help Creehan it seemed. Now our special teams suck and it seems like MOS isn't helping out Tracey. What gives? Could be "rookie coach" syndrome, overwhelmed with the scope of managing the project as a whole. ...and/or being lumbered down with some weak sisters (Marcel/Tracy) At least we are seeing some improvment/adjustments with Hall. MOS better start holding the reins tighter, because some of this stink is beginning to settle on him....

Fire O'Shea
Watching Picard (Marcel) attempting to get the line calls straight, was like watch a duck, after it was hit over the head with the rubber hammer. We just looked so passive and confused up there. There is no rule that states you cannot at least rub or chip a guy on the way in. Even after Willy went out....had 2 plays where guys came in on Brohm, untouched....and on the Marve pick, he had backside pressure from a guy who (you guessed it) was untouched..... Edm/Ham make us look like puppies, out there....and it starts with this OC, who has nothing, when the other team amps up the pressure. Picard has been a massive dissapointment, so far, and Neufled took a major step back this week.

Trouble with Marcel is.... that you see a game and say "not bad" followed by about 3 others...where you are saying "what the hell are we doing?"
