Noeller Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 I had no idea the "Winnipeg is just Andrew Harris and the run game" was a narrative until this week. Hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collaros threw 20 touchdowns this year and nobody else threw 15. Kenny Lawler led the league in receiving. yup...and had 3 guys on pace for 1000 yards if we played a full season....not to mention the O-line to create a pocket to allow us to throw from ddanger, Noeller, the watcher and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for O, I dont think they will run more than 12 times any way. But I do like jackson a lot more. If they're not running much then Dane might be running for his life wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said, the cats only prayer is if they can get the short passing game going and chain together first downs. Which is some thing this D doesnt give up any more, and that the cats couldnt do vs the 19 bombers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilarious. I would say for the majority of 2019 we were just Andrew and the run game. But once ZC started we became a 2 dimensional team. If the Can’t think this team hasn’t changed since 2019 they are going to get embarrassed Sunday. TBURGESS and AB BomberFan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, that's a popular narrative but it's not true. Our passing game with Matt Nichols until he got injured was excellent. We were very very well balanced all last year. When Nichols got hurt, then things changed because Strev just isn't a real passing threat.

Nichols was on pace for 3,800 yards. WildPath, Noeller and blue_gold_84 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 As others have said, if Laurent can't go, I assume they go STE at RB and go 6 on offense (4 OL, WR, RB) +1 on D (S) with maybe Eddy Wilson coming off the PR (He did play earlier in the year) or Mulumba at DT. Either that or they start SCHNITZLER to keep the ratio and have Jackson at RB but that's a pretty young NI in the spot. Geebrr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going off the top of my head, 21 Canucks, 20 Americans, 2 QBs and I think 2 Globals now. 7 starters must be Canadian, this is where Hammy fudged the numbers. Please correct me if I am wrong, this is somewhat guesswork. Eternal optimist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wideleft Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) I see TSN has added Bo Levi to the panel, which made me cringe- until he spoke so glowingly about Demski. Still think Michael Reilly is the next best choice for a spot. He's a thoughtful, intelligent and well-spoken interview.

I know it makes Canadian players more valuable, but i never quite understood it. There is a new rule this year that Hamilton has exploited. An American veteran (min 3 years with club or 4 with league) can replace an injured starting Canadian. On at least one occasion, the TiCats have trotted out their starting Canadian centre for a series or 2 then have replaced him with arguably a better American.

Literally every play. If I were them and wanted to beat the Bombers I'd try to scramble out of the pocket as well as commit to some off-tackle and interior running. Those are a couple weaker points but not really weak. Stop Harris, get to Collaros on the other side. Good luck. Mostly hope the Bombers drop the ball, Bombers have really only stopped themselves on O this year. HardCoreBlue, Noeller and JCon 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
