Fatty Liver Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 Here is the real link Fred. https://www.cfl.ca/2017/12/18/top-10-defensive-plays-of-2017/ 6 of 10 are Bomber highlights, sure looks like Richie Hall deserves a RAISE.

I suspect that it is the players who deserve the accolades to have done as well as they did in the system they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as the GC is awarded based on plays of the year, I'd agree Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you know? All the players on a Defense that gave up the amount of yards/points the bombers did are trash! ALL OF THEM!!!!! SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPuDS Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 gotta admit, this doesn't bold well for Richie. I know some people think the players on our defense ain't up to snuff but this contradicts that theory a tad. I don't think its ever really been a personnel situation. its frustrating though because I know Richie Hall isn't a scrub DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 What stat determines the outcome of games more than any other.... turnovers.... what does Hall's defence do (not just here but everywhere he's been)..... generate turnovers.... hmm.... curious....

I like the defenses Richie runs but can't figure out why they can't stop the big plays from happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the defenses Richie runs but can't figure out why they can't stop the big plays from happening. This is strictly based on my own observations, but to me it looks like the soft zone he runs gives the players more space and time to read and react to potential turnover situations. However, on the flip side, I also gives offensive players more room to maneuver when they have the ball, and to get open. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Bottom line is the guys on D have the go ahead to try and turn the ball over and we got some ball hawks on this team. But you know what really stood out to me on a bunch of those big returns? 22 Walker was always down there blocking for guys. He had some rookies oopsies, but I really like that kid. Lotta hustle and lotta skill. SPuDS and JCon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely like what this guy brings to the table.. glad they kept him in there to grow a bit. Hopefully he keeps learning and improving.

do or die Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Walker is a terrific athlete, with upside. Especially if he ever learns how to tackle anybody. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker has all kinds of potential, but he has to work on not getting caught out of position so much. He did a lot of chasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did a lot of chasing. I think he has great physical attributes, he just has to catch up on the mental side and not get caught completely out of position.

I think that's in in a nutshell. He needs to work on his reaction... and not even so much reaction but proactive positioning of himself and not falling for fakes. He seemed like a bright kid so I do expect him to get over it.. don't overthink it.. just let it become natural. Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
