BomberBall Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Was BLM's throw great or was it a poor decision that happened to work out? If Rios gets his head around and intercepts it, no one is calling it a great throw. I think, when he released it, he may have had an oh sh!t moment.

Should have never been completed but should have been intercepted. I don't want to blame Rios, cause he has good position and it can be hard to look back at the ball sometimes. But yeah that one hurt. Same with Fenner too. Should have had another int there. Edited October 23, 2019 by Bigblue204 BigBlueFanatic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesiree...great throw that was needle threaded ...and reminded me of a velcro catch one of our guys made a few yrs. back....the receiver was just as stunned as the qb. when that was completed for a td....Anyone got a clip of that???

He knows it's coming and catches it. It's a great catch but not at all the same as the Smith catch where he didn't know it was coming and made no effort to catch it until it hit him. There's replays on here, bottom video, 23 second mark. Ball is leaving BLMs hand and Begelton is looking at BLM.

BUT ..you're missing my point.....BOTH tds. were of the spectacular variety...I think you'd agree...Were they similar in every aspect NO....but very similar in resulting in a td. that was not very likely......my take...you have yours JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Begelton saw the pass coming the entire way. It was not spectacular. BLM was fortunate that there was no communication among the Bomber DBs. Still, they manage this stuff week after week.

I’m not so sure about seeing the ball all the way. The ball hits him in the chest first, not something that you want, but since he was aware, he made the catch.

17to85 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Even if someone steps in front at the last moment a guy with any concentration will know where the ball is going to end up. Our brains can process that information. Dbs have to disrupt the catching process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were plays made all around. The DB did disrupt the receiver’s vision, the receiver knew about where the ball was coming, so, when it hit him in the chest, he closed his hands around it. But, the real playmaker or luck, was the ball thrown by BLM that managed to miss Rios and hit Begelton, all within a couple of seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Burke was a “bad” coach, MOS is nothing of the sort. Bad coaches can win championships, never mind winning 10+games a season. See former head coach Dan Byslma of the Pittsburgh Penguins. I wouldn't say O'Shea is a bad coach but winning 10+ games for four years in a row certainly doesn't indicate he is a good or great coach. He has been provided with quite a bit of talent and good Canadian depth. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
