Heads up. He is a punt/kick returner...so he could conceivably do it in a pinch but not full-time as y wouldn't wanna risk injury...dude can fly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Black Posted July 16, 2022 Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 Dru Brown now seems very able to handle short yardage jumbo situations. Earlier in the year, it was a disappointment. Previous qb McGuire was a bigger guy. Nolby and Potential 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night was undisputed who the 2 top teams are and by a large margin...I can't see who can hang with them...mayyybee BC... And to think...we will get 5 top end starters back at some point...and most likely an NFL returnee...or 2...that's gotta scare the crap outta teams Yeah, I took a look at the injured list yesterday and good lord, so many impact players are nicked right now. If we get them back we're going to be even more of a handful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Zach ever throw it 38 times last year? I think our offence is in a different place now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Bomber Fan Posted July 16, 2022 Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 not sure if this has been discussed but what are the opinions on Olivera running the ball. Personally I don't he is good enough. He is slow to get to the line or pocket, stutter steps when he gets there and is always down by first contact. Our other running backs are quicker and harder to bring down and do not go down on first contact most of the time. Opinions?

TrueBlue4ever Posted July 16, 2022 Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 5 hours ago, Geebrr said: Today’s beauty is that Calgary lost more than we won. I wouldn’t say we were lucky to win, as the defence limited Bo Levi and Collaros played lights out extending plays, but we did have our fair share of good fortune. So to be fair, I can understand that take. The Stamps dropped 3 touchdown passes, including the last minute gimme. They had a 4th TD wiped off the board with a legit but split second holding call on a punt return. They gave the Bombers a fresh set of downs and a 6 point bonus with a really marginal call on kicker interference (by rule, the technical requirements of contact below the waist behind the line of scrimmage were met, but it happened so late the ball was already through the end zone on the kick and it is arguable the Stamp was blocked into Legghio, who sold it pretty well. Calgary shot themselves in the foot a lot, but good teams find ways to win. But it is a stretch to say to score flattered Calgary as some have said, IMO.

Goldkobra Posted July 16, 2022 Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 So, with long-term PR guys like Houston and Agudosi coming on and lighting it up, after languishing behind guys like mcknight, glass, josh miller etc... Do we have a talent evaluation problem? Misplaced loyalty? Or just good timing for certain guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh they were both clutching and fighting. Agudosi did give him a slight yank/push at the end to be able to square up for the ball but the Stamp DB turned it into a Chris Farley'esk pratfall once he saw Agudosi was going to catch it. Definitely not any worse than the stuff Ryhmes was pulling last week which resulted in zero penalties. voodoochylde, BomberBall, Rod Black and 2 others 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys aren't ready, spend some time on the PR (more ir issues for agudosi i think) and improve and when they get their chance they shine. It's what good teams do. You don't see bomber fans whining about injuries because we have the depth to replace guys. Rider fans though spend a huge amount of time whining about every missing player.

But he showed potential and the coaches kept him around because they recognized the talent and is now doing great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 Houston was ok...made some typical rookie errors .but u could see he had skill I talked to me friend who is strength and conditioning coach in Arizona...about Agudosi ..said you will love him...plays hard ..practices harder and has a controlled edge and oozed potential ..just needs a legit opportunity....I think we seen it first hand GCJenks and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
