Berry is like 70 years old, 67 someone said... No Thanks really.

Disagree big time, Bucknor is definitely the weak link in the secondary. Teams pick on him, it's happened many many times... Not sure how Hurl is the biggest issue when last night we gave up like 55 yards rushing. But Bucknor got picked on for what? 2 maybe 3 touchdowns last night... 2 for sure, Don't see how Hurl is the biggest problem when Bucknor is the one getting picked on all game.

We did need to fix the OLINE, we have to an extent, Bryant is better than January, Chungh seems to be an improvement over whoever we played there the last few seasons, Picard = Morley really, Daniels i think is better than anyone we tried there the last few years too. The one guard spot still needs improvement and maybe it would be nice to see Goossen get a chance at the center spot, but.. for the most part the OLINE has been fixed, it's not so much a talent issue in my opinion, it might be tho (LG and Center is definitely a problem so far) but i think it's more of a scheme issue.. I dunno, Keep going back to MB in montreal, got AC killed, over 50 sacks one year, he was let go, next year, same oline really, 25 sacks against... The biggest issue right now is the OC and his inability to deal with a pressure D. We seem to do ok against the non Pressure D's but.. Hamilton and Edmonton, 2 big time pressure D, they have a field day with us, It's an MB thing, teams know how to scheme against him, at least Hamilton and Edmonton do... I think if MB was let go, you'd see an improvement in terms of how many sacks we give up. Just saying but... there were times last night when they would show Willy talking to MB on the sidelines and Willy looked pretty annoyed and visibly upset at times about whatever they were talking about. I think MB is the problem and I think it's obvious and i Think WIlly is starting to realize this, if he didn't previously. He really did look pretty annoyed at times when talking to MB.

And I believe he signed an extension along with Barker... nice dream to have but I'd max it at about 0.1% chance of happening... Honestly, I don't even know if 0.1% is even realistic. Maybe not a popular choice here but if we were to fire MB and name a new OC, I think i'd take a strong look at Markus Howell, not sure why, even if it's just interim OC, but i think he could bring a different perspective to things, he's been around a while now. I'd like to see what he can do.

Think Millanovich was a guy we had interest in as head coach a few years ago and he turned it down, possibly even turned being interviewed down due to our media amongst other things. But i thought i remember hearing that we had interest in talking to him about the head coach job but.. he had no interest in coming here and one of the main reasons was because of our stupid media, until that changes, I don't think so.

Honestly, i don't think the LBs have been much of an issue the last few weeks... I don't see Curran, even if he was interested in coming to play again in the CFL making that much of a difference out there.. There are bigger problems on D than the Middle Linebacker that's for sure... Matt Bucknor is my biggest concern cuz you know that if the pass is headed his way, it's more than likely a completion, a big gain or a TD. The other 3 DB's i have faith in, Bucknor, i just don't.

I think Stoudemire is still good, last week he had a nice return which set up the willy to adams TD but... at times it looks like he has very little blocking or if he does have blocking, they are more in the way than making holes for him, tough to tell on TV since you don't get the over head angle but i'd suspect he has very little room to actually do anything. Don't get the HURL ripping, i'd get it the first couple games but the last few he's been solid, he's not a bighill or elimimian, he's not a henoc or anything like that but the guy does make plays out there, had a very solid hustle play last night, went for the blitz i believe, didn't get it in time, collaros passed the ball off, the tackle on that play was made by HURL, almost immediately really. He's been getting better, i know people look at stats and all that but... i don't think the stats tell you the whole story... pretty tough to get on any of the LBS after last night, ticats only had what? 55 yards rushing? That's a damn good day really. I don't think he's your prototypical middle linebacker either, i'm not sure, but... when i think Middle Linebacker i think run stopper really but.. it seems HURL is being used more in blitz packages which leaves BASS to come in and get all the glory stats. I dunno tho but thought HURL has been pretty good the last few weeks now. Or i guess, I'll say it like this, I don't think HURL is the biggest problem on D, i think the biggest problem on D is our Canadian DB.. I'll say this much, If i was to take out a Canadian starter on D, It wouldn't be Hurl or Westerman that's for sure.

Hopefully nick moore is back if adams can't go. Maybe JHomo dresses too.

Cotton is done. No doubt about it. The willy and Adams injuries... not sure. Probably day to day stuff.

The Hamilton D did not take the foot off the gas at all tho.

Pretty simple topic I think. Let's leave the coaches out of this.. but as far as on field goes... who are the weak links out there? In my view it starts with the oline. Picard- can't block. Inconsistent snaps. Neufeld -looked lost on every play On D, honestly think they are getting better but one guy who seemingly gets beat consistently is Matt Bucknor. Got beat on the long TD. Common theme here... Canadians. I'd have said Hurl a couple weeks ago but he's been pretty decent

Good points JBR and just to touch on one a bit... the snaps more so. Looks like they are floaters most times. Not very consistent. Some high. Some low. Can't help either.

Bombers had 325 yards of offence. Hamilton had 334. Laughable? They did move the ball. But I guess ppl see what they want to after losses

3 td passes yup. Only one was not a direct result of a turnover tho. Really gonna say ya but 2 of them were... Really?? Isn't that like saying it was 38-8 but... 28 of those points were off turnovers so really it was 10-8

Daniels wasn't that bad. Thought Neufeld was the worst followed by Picard and even Bryant had a rough Game and honestly thought Hurl looked pretty good today. 54 yards rushing. 280 passing. D played quite well.

Looked small compared to his team mates tho.

Neufeld at tackle? Guess we want our QBS injured earlier in the game. Neufeld sucks and was part of the reason we gave up 7 sacks. But got 5 of our own too.

15 maybe 19 first downs. Hard to see on the phone exactly. 280 passing. 54 rushing. 2 interceptions. Those numbers aren't that impressive at all. Those are Hamiltons numbers. D played well.

I've never seen it. Look closer and you will. He's always the first guy to meet the player on the sideline. Not sure how you can't see it at times honestly.

Lol. Blaming the D. Man. Pointless to argue with people after losses really. 28 points off turnovers. 2 pick 6 and 2 basically Hamilton was in the redzone. How do you blame the D really.

Who do you know? Cuz I know people too who say it will be fine.

A blocked punt is on coaching how? It's on the player missing the block. The oline. Yeah they were bad but that's Marcel Bellefuile for ya really.

Maybe as a Bomber, but Hall has been both a head coach and defensive coach for awhile now, has he not? And O'Shea has been an assistant coach before.First as a bomber tho. The D played well today for the most part abs have seemingly gotten better the last few weeks. We didn't lose cuz of the D. We lost because of 28 points off turnovers. The D Is coming together it seems. The O has some issues tho. Not sure you understand what consistency on a coaching staff means. Fire coaches year after year and this is what happens really but the D has and did play well tonight. They really only gave up 1 td tonight. The rest were a direct or in direct result of turnovers.

Nah. No buck comparison at all. Buck was chronically injured. Willy just takes a pounding at times. First time he's been injured this year on a good tackle. First 2 times were illegal hits.

Coaches are supposed to prepare a game plan & get their players ready to play. They didn't do that.How so. Tip ball pick 6. Blocked punt. TD seconds later. Kick off flunked. TD seconds later. Pick 6 TD. It's not so much coaching as it is just making mistakes. Really. The kick off gaffe is tge only one I could say might be on the coaches but even then our guys on the field should be aware. 28 points off turnovers. Coaches coach players play. It's that simple.
