There it was again, the Richie Hall bad scheme come home to roost.  Offense had a rough day too, but can't always have Montreal miracles week in and week out.  Bend but don't break must be scrapped after this year is over.

Before what get out of hand? Nichols MOP-esque season?? The guys 17-6 as a Bomber starter since taking over from Willy last July, and you want to start seeing what Davis can do? Do you not realize how bad an opinion this is?

yeah he ,or she, whatever it is,  knows that.

he's either an idiot, or an  a--ho--, or both. take your pick. I opt for both.

The game, he WAS having a MOP-esque season before yesterday.  Like I said if he bounces back good on him but we can't go a quarter without a first down or we will be toast.    Give him three series then evaluate.  Hopefully Davis  has his helmet close by.

You're a really bad troll.

If there were more nicknames, I'd say this was Nate.

If he comes out and performs it should not be an issue.   Another slow start  and it should be Davis time before it gets out of hand.

Blatantly disagree with this.  It was but one game that he turned it over after not doing so in 5 games, no different than a few stinkers like Reilly and T Harris have had.  There will not and should not be Davis time period this season unless Nichols is physically unable to take the field.  Even as bad as his outing was yesterday it was still 1000x better than Willy 2016.

 

Richie Hall on the other hand has been driving this defense into the ground since he got there and they never respond when their back is against the wall.

Checking the stats this morning and we've now given up more points than Hamilton for last in the league.

And the Bombers will say Hall is doing a great job.

they stopped montreal once or twice in the comeback of the decade a few days ago

Ummm exactly when was this?  I wasn't aware we played more than one game in only a few days.

 

If you're talking about the 41-40 miracle, the defense had practically 0 stops, esp with their back against the wall.  We got back to back possessions in that game cuz of the onside kick recovery.

Let's put an end to this now.

Of course the Bombers have allowed more points than Hamilton, we've played two games more!!

We have a crappy defence right now, but let's not reach...

Can Hall at seasons end and pry Thorpe out of Montreal.

The D has some key stops in the 4th quarter of that game.  The Montreal O had multiple opportunities to put the game away.

We are the only team who is behind them in points against. Assuming that Calgary doesn't lay 54 points on Edmonton this week, we'll still be the only team behind Hamilton at the end of this week, and most teams will be at the 10 game mark.

LOL at benching Nichols for an interception...  yikes you guys are crazy.

that's what I definitely recall. defence really came up big in the fourth quarter. In fact, I think people were hoping the D was coming round nicely.

They will have played the same amount of games after today. I take that back. After today, still one less game than theBombers.

AND they have the worst offence in the league, or damn near close to it

There are no key stops when your defense gives up 40 to the worst offense in football.

 

Richie Hall has got to go.

This is just not true. If you are in a shoot out and need a stop and the D gives it to you it's still a key stop even if the entire game wasn't a master piece. 

There are lots of shades of grey in football. It's not all good or all bad, it can be good and bad mixed together. Like most sports it's less important the total numbers but more important when you make the plays.

Watch the recap of that game - D wasn't great but still key.

As for Hall - no comment

If we had a good defence we wouldnt even need said key stop. Game shouldnt have gotten to that point in the first place

Is Hall responsible for the personnel he has available at LB?  Not sure the LB Corp is really good enough

and if I had a million dollars I'd be rich. 

Look we know what kind of D Ritchie Hall runs. It is frustrating to watch because it gives up yards and drives, but that's what it is and it's not changing as long as he is here, might as well stop wishing we had at their peak swaggerville and and get used to what we do have. A D that gives us all heart attacks but is capable of making adjustments and coming through when they are needed. They do need support from the offense though. If the O goes 2 and out a bunch or turns the ball over things will get out of hand, but that will happen with any defence. It just looks worse with what the bombers are running.
