ddanger reacted to 3rdand1.5 in Riders at Bombers WF Chat
Sask. has a good d-line, they will get pressure.......a lot of the final outcome of this game will be how we handle this pressure. I don't believe we can stop it, so we /Buck needs to figure out how to slow it down, and use the aggressive Sask. D-line to our advantage. IF Lucky is closer to healthy and his speed and "twitch" is back he could be a very valuable asset this game.....we started to see him used in some motion, I will take a healthy Lucky one on one against a Sask LB or DB outside the tackles......Brady is not really an off tackle kind of back, Zach does have success with his right roll out's so no doubt Sask. will be looking for some contain....IMO in the BC game it was the interior guys overpowering the BC interior and collapsing the pocket on VAJ that caused most of the damage......This does worry me as our interior has not been great and Zach doesn't have the athletic ability VAJ does.......I would love to see us run at and stretch Betts....IMO he is very athletic and quick, but he is not great or disciplined against the run.....IMO he will/does get caught over pursuing and is something we can take advantage of...
I really do believe that the biggest factor in the outcome of this game is our o-line vs. their d-line.......whichever line is more physical will be in the Grey cup.......
Let's be ready to smack them as soon as the opening whistle sounds till the millisecond it blows and could be a penalty......every down every player especially on offence, block hard, run hard initiate the contact, do everything in our power to wear them down....We are the rested healthier team......with the home crown noise and energy behind us....absolutely no more of this coming out flat.....

This is a rule of the site, but it is mostly around legalities of not trying to steal content and making sure people who create content get the revenue / clicks / views for producing it. If Zach wants to post an article he wrote on this site, its his right as its his content.
As for posting articles here, I have no problem with Zach promoting content here. As many have said, there is very little CFL content in even the major news sites these days, so if its a passion, I see no harm in doing what they are doing. It promotes the CFL and Winnipeg sports scene, which is great. Without any knowledge of traffic or the business model for Bonfire sports, I highly doubt they are getting rich off of it.
It might trend to spam if he starts posting a new thread daily which simply links to an article, but that is not at all what I've seen so far. There is a stickied thread where he posts videos, and this is the first "dedicated" thread I've seen or remember.
Go do your thing Zach and let the haters hate.

Far as I can see we have plenty of posters who like to express their opinion and see who agrees/disagrees. If you are simply posting to show how smart you are the its futile. At least Zac tries to put out his views with items to support them and welcomes other opinions. To simply put down another poster is something that you usually see on the rider forum

Read your comments, Zach. My main issue with MOS is we haven't fielded our best team all year. Why are we playing 10 or 11 starting Canadians at the expense of better American players especially on the defensive line with Canadians Thomas & Schmeckel, two of our "all star" (sarcasm) UNDERperformers constantly getting playing time? They do absolutely nothing out there yet they get playing time at the expense of Woods, Fox & Adams. Our OL same thing. Some of the personnel decisions are just baffling. As far as returners go, Returner Chandler Worthy was on the Stamps PR & released when their season ended. Why wouldn't we pick the guy up for the playoff run? Just put the best team on the field starting 7 Canadians & see what happens.

Old boomers on forums don't like new voices and are out of touch. Ignore the trolls and feel free to post opinions and articles on here. We can use fresh takes around these parts!

Zach needs one hell of a playoff run. He hasn't given us a playoff performance where we can sit back and feel comfortable with his numbers.
Buck needs to call great games, make adjustments quicker, and help Zach out.

We haven’t been able to run on Saskatchewan either and it’s not like our offensive line is an overly physical bunch.
Success, offensively, hinges on our ability to dominate the line of scrimmage from the opening whistle. The trio of Dobson, Kola and Neufeld have to play MUCH better if we hope to see Brady go for more than 50 yards on the ground.

Sask took away the deep ball, the wind assisted them and for whatever unknown reason, BC didn't gameplan a November style smash mouth run game........Much like every other early exit they have had.......round peg square hole, that game plan has proven not to work in the prairies in November....If the game was in BC, they very well may have won...
Sask's defence played well, they got serious pressure on VA......On offence they showed what they are....dink and dunk, high percentage plays...
As mentioned above...Harris will have success all day if he is allowed to execute the way he did yesterday....but get a few touches on him early and he doesn't get into that rhythm..
It won't be easy but we can win......GO BLUE

I also think we greatly overstate their play at times.
We are weak through the middle of this defence, lack physicality and have already been picked apart by Harris this season. If we can’t get to the QB, this game to going to be much closer than any of us want.

I'm expecting mostly a 3 man rush, like we saw in the Banjo Bowl. But keep in mind, the Bombers have a much better secondary & the LB crew has come on of late.

Man, they're quite cocky over there right now. They played a decent game, nothing scary, we aint BC.

Hearing some very good things coming out of the Bombers corporate meeting. Lets just say the Bombers are financially set for a long time.

the ALs sure are, they’re tough in the trenches.
I think Garbutt has really turned a corner. I think the edge problem revolves around wj, and the Canadians inside. Half his snaps wj doesn’t put any effort into getting to the qb. He coasts playing for pass kick downs. Which means the ol cheats in the other direction.
The issues with Jake and schmek are well known and don’t need to be restated.
If we ran a 40 with woods and fox as the dts, Garbutt and wj on the edge and a rotation of Adam’s and Lawson we’d be in great shape. We’d need 1 more de who can rush to heavily spell wj but it’d work well.
If we ran a 30 with those same guys and just heavily rotated wj, we’d do well.
It’d be well worth while for us to pay a good pass rusher in free agency this year. But the changes we need are subtractions not additions.

Getting back to the game this past Saturday. That was more than a butt-clencher. In fact, I had given up hope. I'm glad the Bombers won but even as a non-football guy, I have to seriously question some of the coaching decisions. The one that was the biggest head-scratcher for me was playing Schmekel and Thomas at the same time. I didn't count the number of times that they had them out there together but the two times that I noticed, they were totally "swatted away" by Montreal's O-line resulting in big plays for the Alouettes. I'm hoping that when watching the video, the coaches will come to their senses and have a Eureka moment....."Maybe we shouldn't have these guys out there together."

I finally watched the game... I don't think I've ever seen a Blue Bomber game where the d-line had such little to absolutely no pressure on the QB. Willie was double teamed all night, outside of the one Garbutt sack I can't think of any play where any one hurried Fajardo/Alexander or had a hand in his face or anything. That is not going to cut it come play off time. Very concerning.
The whole game I was waiting for someone to do something or to make a play or cause some sort of disruption. Outside of the first series with the BS non interception call... that D did absolutely nothing at all. Fajardo after the first 2 series went what 16/17 and Alexander was 9/10 at one point.... yikes.
Glad we won but this is the weakest team that we've entered the play offs in during our latest run.

I wonder how different the game might have gone if they hadn't gone full brain dead and given Ford his legit int on the first play...

Agree with our red zone aggression. Seemed like we got into the red zone and immediately ran Brady into the pile. Waste of a down.

Truth be told, we have not had even one dominant d-lineman this season, and, sadly, that includes Jefferson. No one on the D-line should be safe in the off-season.

I'm in the group of not very confident. Yes we've been winning, and yes we got jobbed in the Argo game, but I'm worried. I felt like we were playing a rather vanilla offensive game yesterday, and BTW is there anyone who doesn't know that we're throwing to 89 when we need a play?? Maybe we're saving some fancy plays for the playoffs, but we just gotta be better. And I agree that we gotta do something with the D line.
