AKAChip Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Without a doubt this D gives this team a chance to win every game at this point. If and when Jeffcoat gets back, it will be even better. Gaitor has been a pleasant surprise at SAM too. rebusrankin and blue_gold_84 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigseye Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 So Rich Hall finally took the reins off the defence and them let them play, who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks? As for Lapo, I'd give him one more game then pull the play the calling duties from him, he coaches like he's in high school ball, only one throw over 10 years until well into the 4th quarter, that's not how winners coach. Great win btw. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Where the heck has this D been hiding all year....Great game and the reason we dominated the Esks. right out of their stadium...If we would have played that kind of ball on defence all year we sure as hell wouldn't be scrambling like we are now...Tied with the Esks. and looking very dominate on D....Now if the offence can find itself ….mainly Nichols...maybe we have something going down the stretch....FINALLY we beat a team who are in the top tier in this league...Keep er going guys...………………Note to Mike O....WHEN YOU HAVE THE GAME IN THE BAG ..PLEASE TAKE OUT THE STARTERS WE CONSIDER INVALUABLE...Nonsense to leave them open to injury B-F-F-C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a chance to lay on a hit and he took it. I abso-freakin-lutely loved it! I can't wait for the next receiver to expose himself like that against our secondary. Next time William's'll let that ball go. Notice has been served. Throw the ball in Sayles direction and your receiver will get F@CKED UP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBlink Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 I know our D has been good lately but I didn't fully think we had this in the bag until 9 minutes left in the game. I figured Mike Reilly would pull off some miracle and our D wouldn't be able to keep it up all game. Boy was I wrong. This was a defensive gem. blueandgoldguy, Rod Black, blue_gold_84 and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 We also have a quarterback who can't pass with any confidence so it's making most of our receivers pretty useless.

We've got some.receivers who are showing they can be gamers, but the sweep and dump pass are the bread and butter. Take away the sweeps, and Nichols is barely over 120 on the night.

Super Duper Negatron Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) Defense played amazing. They have been good to great for weeks now, but who could have seen a performance like that coming? Hall may have saved his job the last couple months. Offense hot garbage. That game was about 20 points closer than it would have been with even an average offense. Nichols can't get past his first read without turtling like a rookie. Just awful.

No, what I'm saying was that we won't surprise teams like we did the Esks tonite & we need our offense to start producing again. LaPo has gone into a shell play calling. Very vanilla & conservative. Not a lot of imagination as compared to earlier this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_gold_84 Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Maybe the best defensive performance by the team under this regime. Absolutely dominant. Fogg had a monster game. BigBlueFanatic, Mr Dee and Rod Black 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
