Over loaded with excitement at what can be done. Stretch the field side line to side line, break Ds with runs up the gut, stretch the ball down field, catch and run guys this offense is filthy. Depth at qb to boot. On paper this offense rivals the best weve put together in a hell of a long time. and we're still going to see them throwing for 6 yards when they need 8. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with the ability we have (on paper) to spread the field in all directions that can actually be successful. Id still rather see more of those routes be slants / short inside post/corners that get the ball into the hands of the WR with out breaking stride. The esks with ray et al used to be masters of seam buster routes like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedFlex27 Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 (edited) With Roh & Fenner on D with the additions we have offensively I'd say we won. If we sign Muamba then call it a Grand Slam home run! Edited February 17, 2018 by SpeedFlex27 wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when we need 8 he'll actually call a 4 yard play not a 6 yard play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedFlex27 Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 We were the highest scoring offense in the CFL last year. Or do you two have something else to ***** about? Atomic, BigBlueFanatic, Jaxon and 2 others 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing passes on the near side of the yardage marker is something no other team in football does. sweep the leg, blue_gold_84 and BigBlueFanatic 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no other team on second and long weighs the odds of the possibility of a turnover vs. punting the ball away. The Bombers need to stop this silly practice immediately, or the drought will continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedFlex27 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 17to85, do you remember 2013, 2014, 15 on offense? Quit whining. Enjoy winning instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we sign Muamba then call it a Grand Slam home run! Id take any of the big 3 mlbers available. Any of them would be such a gigantic upgrade for us, it wouldnt be funny. Muambas familiarity with the city and pass port would make him the highest on the list though. On 2/17/2018 at 11:24 AM, Jpan85 said: That's smart football. They won I think every game where they won the turn over battle. I dont think we did, but winning the turn over battle is a huge advantage in the game. If you win the TOP and turn overs you wil a hell of a lot of games. 2nd and long plays that are short of the first down can also make a big difference in an on going battle of field position. If its 2nd and 20 and you pick up 10 yards and punt, that makes a noticeable difference in the game when you are trading field goals or each threatening to drive into FG range regularly. Gotta keep em honest for sure, but its one part of our offense im in strong agreement with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
