  1. So our scouting is that awful that we were ready to trade for him before he was cut and then he's not even good enough to replace Burnett - I mean what has he done on ST this season?
  2. Did you miss it bro? He was released a few days ago by the bombers. Wow, I guess I have tuned out... thought he looked good in the limited playing time he had. Bizarre.
  3. Interesting... I thought Copp was out of position for a good portion of that game. Played way too deep a lot. I think he's getting a free ride on here because we know he's already pencilled in at 4th C.
  4. Simmons must be so happy he signed here and got out of that hell hole Calgary... he should buy his agent dinner This roster is baffling.
  5. Chiarot had a nice game, Lowry too Oleson looks like he could compete with Copp for that 4th line centre Really like Harrison's game - he's slow but plays smart. Maybe we see... Ladd-Little-Stafford Perrault-Scheifele-Wheeler Burmistrov-Lowry-Armia Thorburn-Oleson-Halischuk (Copp, Peluso)
  6. Weird, I feel like Lowry has been pretty decent, gritting it out in front of the net. Armia looks good but doesn't always seem to be paying attention. Copp has not been great from what I've seen. Burmi looking a lot better than I gave him credit for. Think Olsen will be the first call up. Its pre-season...
  7. Today was mostly dedicated to special teams. And it was a short practice, only 70 minutes total. Pretty much sums up the problem...
  8. Crompton is an average QB with an OC that called a simple game to help his QB win. Nichols is an average QB with an OC who forces all his QBs into being a pocket passer. Broken record alert: Bellefuile just falls into this 'defensive' mode of playcalling, always has... his plays develop slow because (imo) he creates option plays that really try to deal with every conceivable defence... tries to cover too many possibilities. When he opens up, he's a good OC... but with an average or young QB, the 'safest' options always end up as hitch, hook or draw YAC is critical for this team - looks like everyone is just sick of getting ****-canned for a few extra yards.
  9. Today wasn't MB's fault. Today was on the players. Sure the receivers didn't help but did you watch the play calling. MB doesn't get a mulligan just because the players played like their OC. Utter crap. I thought the play calling was fine today. Problem was the players. The players couldn't execute, made too many mistakes. I do think there's a leadership problem. Watch the game again... bombers biggest gains were on broken plays or second effort by Marshall. Teams are waiting for the Denmark fly and the hitch screen. They know that MB doesn't move the pocket. Keep building the pressure as the game progresses and the bombers will break.
  10. Walters, Osh and Tracey will be reunited at Guelph next year... maybe Etch too!
  11. Um why not Richie Hall? I believe Bellefuile is slightly taller.
  12. OC and HC's job is to game plan and get the players to buy in. Players are not buying into this offence... they are on the defence. That is the definition of coaching.
  13. First we let Paul Jones walk... then we let John Murphy walk... really underlines the problems with this franchise. Probably the two best minds in CFL.
  14. Who is on our PR that can step in... no RB even in camp Wasting two PR spots on Cdn DEs ... And started 8 Cdns again
  15. Has our Cdn content really improved? Chungh is 'decent' but Goossen can't seem to break through. Neufeld is very average. No other option than Picard... Kohlert, JFG and Bastien are not striking fear into any D. Pontbriand, Cronk, Rempel... ugh. Too much faith in Morgan, Waggoner, Briggs? Walters had a chance to bring in Glenn or to find a solid backup - went with Brohm and Marve We all saw that there were problems with Bellefuile's offence last year... Walters stuck with status quo Very thin at import receiver and import running back... these are relatively easy positions to scout Lin-J Shell, Walker, Kuale, Korey Banks... weak. Do his big name signings outweigh the stinkers? I'd say its even. Edit: Oh man, I forgot Romby, Aaron Kelly, Donovan Alexander... League's garbage heap right there
  16. I wonder what Bob Wylie would be like as an Offensive Coordinator...? Markus Howell? Have to pull the trigger.
  17. Nichols looked just like the Nichols who lost his job in Edmonton...
  18. Never thought I'd join the fire Oshea bandwagon... but after reports of the team joking around at practice this year, Osh personally taking control of ST and a complete lack of focus by the team for much of the game... not much choice. Richie Hall HC, Miles as DC, Howell as OC, bring in Cvet or one of Cvet's Pets as ST coach... can't be worse than what we've got.
  19. Bombers will gladly release him from his contract to save paying him out after he's fired. Go use your CIS knowledge there.
  20. Buff will be asking 8-8.5 long term sand he will get it from someone
