Blue-urns

Yeah me either. He has played us tough though. Rourke hasn’t ever. Masoli still has that lightning fast release, you can get into a lot of trouble blitzing him, and if he’s still got any thing left he can take what the D gives as well. 
 
 I’m not sweating Masoli, but I expect us to slap rourke around. I always worry about guys off the bench, if we prep for Masoli that is helpful. 

Arbuckle didn't beat winnipeg in the grey cup,  the argos defense did full stop. Offense didn't put **** together all game and gift wrapped a pile of points for the argos. 

Yeah, a lot of getting past the sophmore struggles is about mental toughness and desire. Evans never had that, or got it. Dru brown made his bones that way, I think thats a big reason why he should have the best year of the 3 if healthy. 
I didn't think he played that great, I thought we played and executed that poorly. He was in the perfect situation. If we did every thing the same, I think they would've beaten us with just about any qb with starting experience. 
 
Truth. Also a stronger OL. If we had the argos level of coaching/execution, we would've won in a blow out with our roster though. 
 
 
 
 

I wouldn't say excellent...i'll agree he had a few good moments and all they are is the occasionally straight ahead push but you could get that from any DT really...he has no moves...never had hand skills, and no burst or pursuit...so many times he has a push and kinda gets off his guy, but then has nothing left to finish a play...and has zero pursuit or lateral/backside pursuit ability, unless the tippy toeing he does way back of the play once it's wrapped up counts...so why not put a guy in who does that stuff?...As for this "glue" thing.....with all the vets we have on both sides of the ball we have more than enough glue...one less bottle of glue isn't gonna cause the  team  to swan dive
If they feel this need to keep rostering him then maybe 6 to 10 snaps a game would morph his pointless reps into majority good ones...but again...we could do so much better

we were out coached on a couple levels....every loss in the Grey Cup basically was out coached and out rostered
People say "Yeah but this player and that player didnt have a good game" but many fail to realize that also comes down to coaching and preparedness...a poor scheme...plan can make a player look like he sucked....Guys cant just go rogue and do their own thing as that would compound it even more
As great and key as our coaching has been...It's also failed us big time at the biggest game....3 yrs running in my world is a bit concerning too....hopefully this yr the light went on
hmmm...is that a roster issue/decision?....😁
and the far too many times we used him at end...and may as well just fielded 11 guys as that was pointless and didnt help either

A strong Dline would've kept that game far closer 

The Bombers GC defensive game plan was to give Arbuckle all kinds time to hopefully confuse him and let him eff it up himself.  Zero pressure and coverage seemed off even when the game was still within reach.  Guy was coached perfectly to just take what was given… and the Bombers obliged.

Coaching decisions lost us that game, especially putting an injured Zach Collaros in just to throw 2 pick sixes to put the game out of reach.

Zach's deep shot ability is not what is was 2-3 years ago but is still near the top of the league QB wise. He is still very good on the deep ball. The problem is that ANY deep ball is a much lower % completion and we relied on it way too much the past two years under Buck. We can't be taking the amount of deep shots that we have been taking the past couple years and expect high efficiency.

He sucks 

I thought it was a pretty soft PI, personally...

I'd rather not mess with an oline that played so well. Rather keep my oline intact and lose a back up defensive player who mainly plays teams.

You still need to have someone that actually knows how to talk and host a conversation. Have DT or someone else from OB act as the host of it, but THEN you can have your former players or whatever... But at least someone needs to be able to facilitate a conversation. 

I enjoyed that Handled Internally.... Most of those pods are solid. It's just them BSing over beers, which is what I want. Darren is very careful about what kind of info gets out there, but I like when the players are loose (the beer helps) and give us a bit of an inside view of the room. 

Big Wreck?...The Rider Organization has a band??....haha...I'll show myself out now

My conclusion: Brady is Wolverine.

Update:
Oliveira is feeling much better than expected over the last 24 hours and may possibly only miss 1 game. He apparently said that he even hopes to suit up this weekend, but i would think thats highly unlikely. Its a long season and im sure the Bombers would err on the side of caution with him, especially with how Peterson looked.

I think Novak's dance is the same as Will Ferrell in the mailroom in Elf

the fact we havnt adequately replaced...or had a quality mainstay at DT...DE (Besides WJ)....Kick Returner and Punter since we lost Jeffcoat...Medlock..Stove/Nevis/Sayles...Grant says a lot to me....but we kept a whole pile of...well crap...who's that on....its not like we havnt brought in any players...and this has been yrs now

Milt admitted he wasn't the fastest player on the field at the start of the game, but by the end of the game everyone else had dropped off and he was still running the same speed.

He had "character"  which is significantly more important then football skills and athletic ability.  

We threw the ball to Damian Jackson, we can throw it to Cooley.

Buck has struggled to adjust to defenses previously and had his worst year last year. Yes, Zach was part of that, especially early. But Buck was also part of Zach's struggle. He had a ton of ways to off set zach and the offences issues last year, but failed to do anything, at any point of the year. He kept trying to hammer away at the same crap that didnt work. 
This. They are both like this as well. But it's the coach's job to solve stuff like that. Especially when you are both QB coach and OC. 

You mean Flanders? Or Augustine? Or Greg McCrae? Cus that is just 3 times off the top of my head we've done it in the past. We also did that with Streveler last year. We also slid Johnson into running plays, having never done it before, and did it with Lucky. We tried throwing to mike miller a hand full of times.  
Also, no one said he was going to be on the roster this week. We are talking about the emergency reserve imp wr. And btw, half our wr core ran 4.6-4.7 pro days lol.
