Edem seems hurt every second play. Not impressed by him.
The hate for JJ is not very justified, the returning was awful but his post on defense was solid.
The problem with the o was buck.... If he could of stopped the blitz we could of had much more chances of going deep.

Goltz just isn't ready to take the job yet, IMO. Might as well let him get some good time in as the backup before Pierce is inevitably injured again and Goltz is thrown into the fire.
For all the people clamouring to sit or cut Pierce, just remember who you're talking about... Goltz IS going to get his shot this year. It's just a matter of when, and I prefer to keep him on the bench just a little longer.
Goltz as been with us for three seasons, Hall started in the NFL. What do these guys have to do to get some playing time?
I would hope after three years Goltz should be ready!

I like a lot of what Crotwon has out there, there are options to deal with the blitz, there are lots of receivers open.... our qb is just not the right qb for this offense. No one is scared of him beating them with his arm so they'll just focus on the run and blitz blitz blitz and trust that he won't be able to string together enough plays to score enough points. Backfired on Montreal tonight because the bombers D was relentless and absolutely blew up the Als o-line all night long but you can't expect to get that many sacks every night and rattle a qb that much.
So you're saying that we need a qb with a quick release.... Hmmmmmm I wonder who is available
-
I'm glad that my constant hints of bringing Glenn in is catching on!
I definitely think he would be an upgrade over Buck.
-
I don't think it's about the offense needing to gel at all. My concern is that Buck can't make the throws.
This isn't like the receivers running the wrong routes and it them dropping catchable balls. I see receivers being disappointed because they are wide open and not getting the ball.
The only issues I seen was bad hand offs, and a few plays where Simpson went the wrong way.
But for the most part it was slow releases and bad throws. We are lucky that Kohlert made that amazing catch at the end.
-
Goltz had 2 TDS , Pierce had 2 Fumbles.... isn't that enough
The reason I say Goltz is because Pierce's arm has looked just awful tonight. He made one nice sharp throw to Edwards at the Goal Line.... but most of his throws were really floaters.
-
Buck definitely had a great 1st quarter with his 150 yards and going 12 - 15 or whatever it was...... however the rest of the game in my opinion he looked very shakey.
I'm not an expert but this game he had more protection yet it still seemed like he was throwing without planting his foot and his passes were very wobbly, slow and fairly inaccurate. Kind of reminded me of Khari in his last days.
I don't want to pile on Pierce but his throws for the most part looked plain ugly and being an arm chair qb their were several times where he had Simpson wide open yet he locked in on his primary receiver and either went down or tossed it into tight coverage.
I would not be opposed if they gave Goltz some play time because I think the offense could work if they had a qb who can actually pull of a quick release without fluttering the ball.
Does anyone know if Max Hall has a decent release?
Should we trade for Glenn, I know if Glenn played tonight we definitely would of put up much more points because the guys underneath definitely had some room to run if they had the ball.
Any thoughts or am I over reacting on Buck's play?
-
We so deserved that win... but holy jeeze i had a lot of heart burn watching that game. How in the world did they fumble the ball so much?
I will take away from this game that the defense truly do have a chance at being at the top of the league. I also will take away that Buck Pierce can not throw a bullet...
-
Whoa, look who wants to go younger and cheaper.
Who?
The Riders dropped him for an older and much more pricier player?
-
As someone else pointed out... other teams do face the blitz and eventually they can capitalize off of it.
All I know is that Pierce had zero time in the pocket.... most other teams had much more time...
-
How can we say our o line is under rated when they were dominated whenever Montreal blitzed them. I know things would of been better had Buck made some quick reads and releases... but dear lord he had zero steamboats meanwhile in the 4th Calvillo had a tonne of time.
-
Way to early to tell... but based on how many seconds he had in the pocket... it looked to me that Ray had a lot of protection.
-
The article is garbage however he does speak the truth, it is a must win game for us.
Last week our offense definitely was missing for a large part of the game. If we roll over and die then the fans will be pissed and management will be under fire.
The folks of Winnipeg have no more patience so essentially every week its a must win game.
-
We don't need Carr, we are set at receiver. We simply need a qb and some o line help.
Also why take in a guy who already burned you once? He can wait on the sidelines with TJH for someone to call him if they are desperate.
-
I didn't notice it live but Buck was limping after several hits already.
Wasn't he limping after the first throw interception? He definitely was already hurt and I think it made a big impact on his "confidence".
-
Hefney closed in and made some good tackles in the 2nd half.
BC with at least 4 botched snaps really hurt them badly. The o line also was absolutely the drizzling poops all night long. Is this rust or maybe a slight decline from last season?
Calgary looked great all game long, Tate looks like gumby out there and plays the style that Buck should be playing. The receivers aside from the Lewis fumble played fantastic and the o line completely dominated. Cornish had gaping holes as Forde put it.
-
Watching both games tonight... Buck didn't even have a fraction of the time that the other qbs get when they drop back. Our o-line was doing a very poor job in the last quarter.
-
Joe west looks like jerry rice out there, amazing catches.
-
BC apparently doesn't know how to snap also...
-
I watched the Toronto game , Matt was right what were they doing putting the kicker out for that extra point?? Hamiltons defense is looking very bad they had zero pressure and no run defense. Toronto also looked pretty bad on defense no sugar coating on them either... They just suck.
That being said we would lose to both of these teams since our offense sucks
-
I disagree with some comments....
Montreal looked awful tonight, outside of some great pass protection in the 4th quarter... Calvillo looked really off target and rusty. he had a lot of lame duck passes.
I think this game boils down to the awful 50 yard TD at the end where both our guys could of and sh ould of made a play on the ball.
Montreal squeaks out a victory despite a huge early lead and 6 turnovers.
Mike - I think Buck looked great for 3 minute and awful for the rest of the night. Just plain awful. Those int's were just brutal for a vet to throw. He played scared and rattled... but it didn't help that the o-line literally pulled down their pants and bent over in that last quarter.
Jovon was owned by Bruce.... not looking good for him so far.
Aside from the return td... special teams looked real good in my opinion.
Crowton NEEDS to get his receivers to run routes that put them PAST the first down marker......
Etienne has great wheels and was a bright spot as well as Denmark.
Refs need to be beaten....
Bombers as always find a way to lose a game....
-
Did anyone hear him on the radio yesterday? I only caught the tail end of it.
-
I wonder if they want to move on from Labbe.
I would hope so ....
-
You know what, I am less concerned with how many games Pierce plays so much as I am concerned with how well he can play these days,
Do you think he will suffer from the Kevin Glenn effect where after he takes a big hit.... it takes him 2 - 3 quarters to calm down and play normal ball?
Buck Pierce......should Goltz Start?

Once again how many years does Goltz need before he is allowed to play
