Full team effort tonight. All 3 sides of the ball. Vaval is lightning in a bottle. Wheatfall is turning into a star. On defense...well, did Holm get a pass thrown in his direction? Didn't notice him which is usually a good thing. We won without our starting QB and RB. Rourke completed some passes where we were in good position but just misplayed it a bit. Looked easily correctable. Would say the score flattered BC. Go Blue

Is there something about our schemes where we value a glut of DTs over having rotations at DE? Do we think we can just pull LBs down to the end position if need be?

Yeah probably should have expected this. Going into the first game they want some consistency.

Yeah that was my point. Weitz didn't make it over Munier Bailey. He will be put on IR

Wasn't Weitz hurt? We only need to roster 1 Global player. We can roster 1 more in lieu of a Canadian. That being said I'm still surprised Munier-Bailey didn't make the active roster given our DE depth

A lot of great showings but did the Riders bring anyone of note to this game?

Imagine the Bombers cut Dillon Mitchell, Reggie White and Jarreth Sterns. 😆

Hey with Hogan as the OC maybe this is possible

Vaval with another good return

He will not be arm tackled

Can see why they were giving 77 chances on returns. He's a fast boy.

So many players showing they can play What is that play where they kick the football through the yellow posts called

I'm not sure I'd trade the sideline for anyone on the Riders

Are special teams blacked out?

Some guys putting on some great film tonight. And I love sticking it to the Riders on their home turn lol.

No it was Lawson

sandwiched between two bad throws...

Not sure if it was coincidental but I went from AUTO to 540p for my resolution and i haven't had any buffering since

I'm excited for Wheatfall. Seems like he has upped his game to be a bit more dynamic.

Our QBs are set. Streveler is taking the lions share of the reps because he will be starting first game. Collaros takes reps because he isn't playing for weeks after. Wouldn't be surprised if Arto and Wilson get very limited reps or none at all. Like others have said, for some guys we know exactly what they bring and are being left home. Especially the guys on D. They don't need to get into a rhythm. Everyone else is getting more of a chance to put things on film

Agree that it would be tough to get Cooley on the roster when Brady is there. He brings a lot of the same stuff as Oliveira. Unless he can return I see him as our PR backup.

Beautiful day at the stadium. Chase A looked cool and calm. Pocket presence that Terry W just doesn't have. Can run the ball effectively. Kind of reminded me of Dru B. Maybe a bit faster but a weaker arm. Have to agree that Jonathan J and Michael A are the guys that popped at the LB position. Ayers looked physically elite on some plays. That's exciting. James V seems like a good pickup. With Devin A looking like he's taken another step, our Defensive L looks to be in a good spot. Cam A obviously looked great out there. Loved what he did after the interception as well. Overall I'm a bit worried about our offense. None of the receivers really popped to me (but tbh I missed almost the entire 1st Q...I don't want to talk about it). Game star....Quinton C. Fast, quick, slippery. Like trying to tackle a greased up hog. That's supposed to be a compliment. We better keep him around.

I was really looking forward to a change of pace guy to pair off with Brady. But I guess it would be tough to have a DA without them playing that returner role.

Would be nice to see someone step up if Logan isn't ready.

And that other corner spot is wide open. We've been very willing to play CFL rookies at that position in the past. He has a good chance.
