Old Bomber Fan Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 In all honesty I didn’t think he had it last year, thought Augustine was much better and this game and last I think confirmed this. Think there are three issues, one is the secondary another running game and lastly collaros and he not using his ther receivers except Ellington.

Rod Black Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 The past two seasons of Bomber teams are a pretty tough act to follow. We are still in first place. The D manages giving up few td’s. Buck is better O coordinator than the clown that was there two seasons ago, imo. rebusrankin, Noeller, Wilbur and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Is Nic Demski even on the team? What is happening with that guy. We had WAY too many drops from the receivers. I was really disappointed especially in the first half. Augustine looked solid, if unspectacular, in limited time. Front 7 on D was so frustrating. Wildly inconsistent. Glad we found a way to win, but this team is not the same so far this season. I can already tell I'm going to be angry a lot this season...

It took awhile for the passing game to get going last season too. Our first and third games last year pretty closely mirror our offensive production these first couple games, with no downfield passing. Oliviera had one good game and one pretty bad one. Tonight he was better, just too much hesitation. Starman115, Dr Zaius, Rod Black and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 I don't think we are as good as we have been but we are 2-0 and I keep thinking just keep getting better game by game and peak for the playoffs.

Dodge and Burn Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 What's the difference if we have 1 guy or 3 rushing for over 100 yards in a game? wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But any decent back in this league can get to the second level by making someone miss or getting through contact. He did it a couple times in one game. Both Brady and Augustine had better games doing it more frequently last year. Also it’s a world of difference between first contact coming at the line with a head of momentum and in the back field as you get the ball. 50 minutes ago, SpeedFlex27 said: Well, you either have it or you don't. Oliveira doesn't. Augustine didn’t and hasn’t been able to be consistent. Doesn’t matter what you can do in a few bursts. Especially in our run scheme.

wbbfan Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Also worth remembering is while the bombers have looked rusty as hell and with poor offensive game plan and all this and that we just swept a home and away series in back to back weeks. That’s extremely hard to do especially to start the year and especially for a resurgent strong young rbs team who happen to be extremely good in home openers. Add to that our messed up pre season and tc which gave us very little work for our vets and this week only having one practice messed up by weather and things aren’t soo glib. great teams find ways to win hard close games. That’s what the bombers have done with a mountain of obstacles. BomberD, BigBlueFanatic, comedygeek and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree but we did lose some key pieces that helped us put one of the best teams in the last 50 years on the field. Were missing BA,Alford,Kongbo,Richardson etc. I don't disagree we look weaker but I have faith they'll find their grip and the team will start humming. Were only two games into the season and sitting at 2-0,it's a good problem to have when you need to correct issues but sitting perfect still,I have faith.

Mike Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 You guys are all so mad because you expect a “dominant” Grey Cup squad that shows up in November to appear in June we just won a back-to-back against a much improved team and we didn’t play a single snap with our QB/OL in the off-season. We’re not gonna go 16-2 but we just proved we know how to win the games we don’t deserve to win quit crying 😋 BomberD, wpgallday1960, Blue-urns and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH most of the drops were on balls where the dbs were hitting the receiver with their hands around the ball as it got there (or where the receiver was getting blown up on a crosser) Even Ellingson in the endzone wasn't as easy as it.looked since he had to quickly change direction and go up for a ball at the absolute top of his range in howling wind/rain.

Last years squad was one of the most dominating teams arguably in history. Give credit where credit is due Ottawa came out to play both weeks, they spent a lot of money on some decent players who are hungry to make an impact, ultimately 2-0 is 2-0, there’s no reason to believe some of our guys won’t get better as time goes by.

Yes (so far) we look weaker than last season but that was an all-time great team. Expecting this year's team to match that is an almost impossibly high bar.

Mike Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Lol we legit seem to have found a new receiver who could pace out for 1000 yards, a new rush end who can take snaps with Willie/Jeffcoat, a new SAM who makes us forget about Maston and we’re worried about being undefeated? we definitely do have some problem areas … Dobson can take over for Gray immediately if you ask me, Thompson looks like the second coming of Ian Logan out there and our running game looks rough at best but we’re literally rolling out 8 Canadians, starting a bunch of rookies who look competent and winning games just breathe everyone ddanger, rebusrankin, MOBomberFan and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 That’s why they are the Champs because even when they are not perfect you have to be. Masoli 700 yards in two games one TD. Collaros 400 yards 3 TD. wbbfan, MOBomberFan and BomberD 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
