Anything can happen in the CFL and Hamilton will be an even tougher challenge.....but I sure like our chances with Zach Attack Collaros behind Centre and a healthier Chris Streveler for short yardage packages. It's a winner take all affair and nobody but Bomber fans will remember if we lose this game.....it's all about winning the Grey Cup!!

Booch Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Toughest game of the play-offs for sure...so it will be a true test That being said...we played Hamilton before the re-jigged Defensive scheme, and before Maston and Taylor and Alexander were inserted into the secondary...Rios got royally abused against the Cat's...mainly due to his inexperience with CFL ball...we also played them without a true QB throwing threat to go with our ground game...they were 3rd against the run, but basically middle of the road as 3 teams all gave up 1700+ yards...they being one of the 3...so they can be had along the ground We will have to play a perfect game, and no give aways but that's been the case in th WSF and the WF....so we know we can play that way...

The recent prevalence of open microphones has made it apparent the CFL needs to expand their rules on player conduct, I can't believe the amount of verbal abuse the officials take on the field, players constantly yapping at them about calls made or missed calls on almost every play, demonstrating a total lack of respect. You wouldn't see or hear it in hockey. The league has to establish that the officials control the field and are not to be objects of verbal, physical abuse or harassment, only designated captains should be allowed to address on field officials in a calm rational manner with a 15 yd. UR penalty handed out as a deterrent for violations. The players would quickly absorb the message.

A couple of years ago I wrote an email to the league that the officials should have a designated area on the field where they could talk without the players yelling in their ears. It would be a box or circle where the players couldn't enter and if they did they would be assessed a unsportsmanlike penalty.

Mick Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Under normal conditions, every punter would like to pin the opposition deep in their end as opposed to getting a single point. (Unless it is late in a tied game or something like that) But the single that Medlock kicked, played a minor part in the victory. Had the difference been six and not seven points, the Green Slime would have had the option of going for field goals on some of their late game forays into Bomber territory and two FGs would have tied the game. Would they have opted for that? We'll never know but that single point took the decision out of their hands.

So true...a big coaching blunder being the time left in the half there to give up a point...That returner should have been instructed to NOT give up the point, but that obviously slipped past Dickenson's mind in that game...Coaching blunders throughout the game killed them.... 66 Chevelle, J5V and JCon 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I was impressed by Dickenson's lack of hissy-fits on the sidelines and how well he took the tough loss. Similarly, I have to give full marks to Fajardo. He went from being one short step from being unemployed to a clutch performance that nearly won the Big Game. If he was really in pain, more kudos to him. Too bad the rest of the Rider players and fans did not show similar class.

Bomber_fanaddict Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Question regarding the crossbar. Maybe it was brought up during the game chat. I know if a FG hits the crossbar and out it's a dead ball. Do the same rules apply on a pass or is it a live ball still? bearpants 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be happy to see him lose every game he plays... 3 hours ago, deepsixemtoboyd said: Leaves a guy to wonder what it would take for the Lapo haters to settle down? Maybe generate a few first downs and some insurance points with the game on the line... Sterveler up the middle - when the entire stadium could see it coming - is not how to close out a game... Luckily we managed to escape with a win in a "bad Lapo" game... so hopefully he can dial up another great Lapo game for next week...

blueingreenland Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 On a positive note, I will say that me and a buddy had a great experience at the game. The Rider fans were, as a whole, very respectful. A few reminded us of our Grey Cup drought - and we reminded them they only have 4 cups in 100 years. Only 1 rider fan was a complete jerk and pushed people to the side as he went to the front of the bathroom line - then proceeded to curse out an older Bomber fan who had done nothing. If I had seen the guy coming up in the line, I would have laid a body check his way (but its probably best not to get into a fight.) Anyways, lots of Rider fans congratulated us on the victory and wished us luck after the game, so kudos to them! J5V and GOLD MEMBER 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
