If they can’t trust Walker being healthy in a consistent way, he may lose his starting spot. I hate to say it but yeah. Jones in particular looks like he could be decent.

Decent Canadians at that position Hate hate the Riders but it’s good for the league. More talent more interest in the league.

HardCoreBlue Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) Imo 83 gets the nod for 1st star with ZC a close second. Third star goes to the whole offensive line keeping ZC clean for the most part with Grant receiving the happy honker award with Castillo a close second with his kicking and making up his missed convert with a booming kickoff for a single point.

I'm inclined to give the OL the 1st star. They were awesome in pass protection which allowed ZC to find a guy every time.

Bubba Zanetti Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 End of the half, when Zach was scrambling around for a hail-mary he essentially just gave himself up instead of pulling the trigger and Robertson touched him.

Not a knock, it just is what it is. and a lot of blitzing that didnt seem very effective. hard ro believe, but the Riders O line seems to be better without DAN CLARK. shocking developement.

They took their absolute best shot.... and still got their asses kicked. Reading the RF thread about the game is also comical. Highlights include talking about the "phantom PI" where Demski got bowled over, us getting away with illegal blocks on the Grant TD, and someone saying we have peaked already and the Riders are ascending. 4 hours ago, TBURGESS said: 1. Collaros - Running and passing 2. Grant - That return broke the Riders spirit 3. Schoen - Amazing hands HH - Demski - got us out of trouble over and over Demski's become such an incredible route runner. It's so nice to watch. 2 hours ago, Fatty Liver said: See Jake move out to DE for the Bombers final D snap of the game? He tore off after Harris like he was Willie J! MBB is being punked. He could have an HH mention for his play in peeling off his block and taking down Harris or the running back, I forget which. Solid play by fatboi!

Nolby Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 1-Schoen- Took monster hits, very difficult td and huge game. 2-Janarion- One of the best runs I've ever seen, the current play of the year 3-Collaros- keeps roasting the Riders, 2 tds and 1 rushing. Best qb in the league and it's not close anywhere. HH- Wolitarsky- solid game, always reliable. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 It's funny to watch that regarding the flag. The Bombers hardly threw a block that entire play. Maruo is really the only one. Sask's contain man charges hard on Grant's inside shoulder and overruns him, then another guy across the number overruns him as well, one guy leaps, another guy slides, then Grant is in space with 5 Riders chasing and long snapper in front of him, instead of forcing Grant back to those 5 guys by hauling ass laterally the snapper charges him and gets stiff armed, now we're at the opposite hash, 87 one of the upbacks also charges Grant rather than turning him in to the pack and gets stiff armed at the 26 almost halfway between the hash and numbers, now Grant is outside all alone, now it's just speed and working his way through the Riders trying to catchup with the Bombers blockers far outnumbering them.

Yeah we played a sub par game defensively..not sure if it was scheme and riders doing something we didn't expect...or what but we definitely looked like we were off...it was noticeable. Lawrence..Darby and Holm all dropped picks that would have took points off the board...and not to cling to the excuse thing but that officiating also took points off board for us and aided them in getting points....yet we still hung 45 on them and beat them by almost 3 TD's That right there was their one opportunity to take points from us and really get some Momo...but they missed...Momo is gone...and the middling will continue now..I'd say 9-9 at best but luck my shine on them as right now Edm in current form is horrid tho they should have lost to them...and not sure what cgy is yet.

TBURGESS Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 It wasn't the game I was expecting where we dominate. It was a close back and forth game that was in doubt until Grant's amazing TD return. The Riders were broken after that. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed that the Bomber pass coverage was very poor, but Harris did drop a couple of nice passes into the receivers' hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 Also have to keep in mind that it's on the road and in somewhat hostile territory and no matter what, that's always going to be difficult. BBlink and rebusrankin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
