Probably the worst group in terms of turning the ball over that we've had in the Richie Hall era. 5 starters/projected starts down in D will vert rarely work out well.

Plaxico Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Just now, Stickem said: Tell me this isn't the Bomber team we've come to know....They are stinking the joint out....Making Hamilton look like Cup contenders and we look like the pretenders....I haven't seen this club play that badly in years....Better make it closer in the second half or we are leaving there EMBARASSED with asses dragging In a perfect world I'd say the season is long and inspiration can be hard to find every week, but the D has come very concerning and will need to be fixed. We can't just keep giving teams free easy short passes(and now long bombs today also). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're a quick read guy when you have 2 defenders running free at you lol And that’s a problem I have - ticats clearly blitzing and there’s no outlet route. there are some play calling and defensive reading issues right now.

SpeedFlex27 Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) To put this game in perspective, old timers here may remember. I can remember the Bombers laying more than one big licking on those juggernaut Eskimo teams in the early 80's at home. Wins by 3 or more TD's. Dominating the Esks on the field. Bomber fans loved it. Edmonton looked like ****, too. Come playoff time we had to play them at CWS & we lost everytime. One bad regular season game. Means nothing in the grand scheme of things. I don't like it but we should be snarly when the Stamps come to town next week.

Bombertown Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Where the f is our d line with any pressure? Let's put a bubble around collaros. Switch him out until we figure this out. Hit too many times. Our dbs need to wrap up these receivers! Only guy I haven't seen beat so far is BA and Holm. Long list of beat guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB BomberFan Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Hard to believe Dane Evans looking like a superstar against us. Would be amazing to get a few stops defensively and get some points on offense to stop the bleeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish it wasn't coming against a team with the absolute worst record(who WAS predicted to win the East by many, albeit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slimy Sculpin Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Well, that was an embarrassing first half. The Bomber D was nowhere to be seen. (Certainly the Ti-Cats receivers couldn't see them as they were playing so far off.) Parker got picked on so many times that towards the end he was giving less than a half-hearted effort. As for Rose...What the heck was he doing on the TD where he got burned more than I would have? Gauthier as a regular LB, even rotating, is not going to work. Sure his long locks look great when he's in the pursuit mode (all the time) but he's a special teamer at best. And we're not good enough in the middle of that D-line. Run stopping is a problem, too. I'm hoping that adjustments are made at the half to at least get a few stops. Otherwise it could be 50, maybe 60. Will the Ti-Cats run up the score? I would. And, I thought the O, except for a couple of plays, looked OK. End of rant. I'm tempted to not return for the second half......but I will. Go Blue!
