Captain Blue Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Finishing up a few more things from camp today (saw almost all of it except the first 3 minutes of drills): Streveler was much more comfortable as practice progressed. They finished the practice with 10 minutes of scrimmage drills. Streveler started and got about the first 3-4 minutes, then gave way to Ross for a few minutes. Bennett got one throw and then Streveler finished the rest of the drill, probably another 4ish minutes. Streveler had a really ugly screen throw to Dressler that went straight to the ground early on. The rest was mostly positive. Had a really nice ball to Bowman on a comeback route that he put low and away from the DB. Another play he went over the middle for Dressler, and he put the ball nicely ahead of Dressler and away from the diving defender. A few check downs and short throws. One play where he scrambled but if the DL was allowed to hit he would have been clobbered. I would expect that we will use him creatively in the run game as well, so that should take some pressure off.

blueingreenland Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Gutsy move to start Shreveler. I didn't see it coming. Hope it doesn't hurt the guys long term development. But I do like it and, as has been said, he might have a higher ceiling than Ross. I'm excited for Thursday. Bigblue204 and WildPath 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSkunk Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Strevelers gonna throw for over 300 yards and 3 touchdowns. It's gonna be a crazy first third of the season the next six weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And throwing every qb to the wolves. From Justin Goltz to Max Hall to Jason Boltus to Drew Willy to Robert Marve to Brian Brohm. They were all doomed.

What those qbs wouldn't have given to be on this team today. The defense was actually not that bad during those years, in fact, it may be better than Bomber of 2017, who were pretty terrible defensively. You are all banking on that defense not being the same this year, but I am not sold yet. I don't hold alot of optimism over what is likely to happen, but there is always a chance. It might actually be in Bombers favor that it is the first game and there will still be some rust and communication issues to work out in that high-powered Edmonton O. Just as a little reminder, here is what Edmonton did to that defense in the last meeting. I might add that the score really flattered the Bombers who were pretty much man-handled and just made it look close in Garbage Time. If this is the team that shows up, which is my position by default, this could get embarrassing early. Tracker and Atomic 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
