Booch Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 Haha ...I also found it funny on a few of our plays on defense...that they were doing that B.C arm pumping thing they like to do...was comical Noeller and GCJenks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick question since everyone in this thread. Did the Bombers for a short while in the last year switch the blue stripe on the helmet to a blue-white-blue stripe? Nope. But they have done that for this year in the 3rd jersey scheme. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddanger Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 Wife and I listened to CJOB with Derek Taylor and Doug Brown. MUCH BETTER than suffering through Suitor.

Booch Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 same...and nope.....and I am liking our trajectory more each game this yr....mirroring 2021 rather nicely....and we will have roster bolstered a lot even if it just Couture, Demski and BA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda figured it would be Hall who did it, as he was the one who did it to Fajardo too. Teams will be throwing all kinds of looks at him now and he will struggle through it until he figures it out. In Rourke's defence, he is a much better ball thrower than Fajardo. 3 minutes ago, Booch said: same...and nope.....and I am liking our trajectory more each game this yr....mirroring 2021 rather nicely....and we will have roster bolstered a lot even if it just Couture, Demski and BA We are 5 games in and riding a rash of injuries, even though Riderfans suggests we are completely healthy lol. I like where we are at, I liked it before the BC game too. People were over reacting about some non-divisional games being too close for comfort but I knew they had another gear for divisional games. All teams do to some extent, just ours is more impressive. We barely beat Ottawa or Toronto....blah blah....these are not the games that get our players juices going fully. Simple as that.

All he needs is game-time experience and an O-line good enough to keep him from getting killed ala Drew Willy. Booch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rourke is alreafdy better than the Faj....hands down.....Rourke also prob has one the best arms in the league...hands down, and is probabaly one of the better mobile QB's for using legs to get 1st downs....but......young, and very green still, and yes....book is out now....with pressure and taking away that quick first hot read, and making him move in pocket, and mix up coverages...especially when a team schemes to match their tendencies, he is gonna struggle....like most will. The question now is he at his zenith in processing quickly, and understanding and able to adapt....or does he have more room to grow and adapt?....if he stays the course as is for now he will be good....and bad....but far from elite and second coming....growing and learning curve is now in effect....lets see how it plays out....and you wont get numerous circus catches game in and game out to rely on...that will dry up, and in long run prob be an achilles heal for him.....

When the initial paly is called and is breaking down, that experience allows the QB to ad lib a play where he can anticipate his receivers' reaction.

Big but not huge, disciplined route-runners, able to read defences on the fly and possessors of very good hands. It would be very helpful if Bailey was a deep threat but if every receiver (including our RBs) are threats to break off a 10-20 yard reception, maybe we do not need a speed merchant.

rebusrankin Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 I think Rourke is legit. Perhaps not Flutie level as his first three games indicated but at worst a solid starting QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
