Booch Posted October 25 Report Share Posted October 25 Interesting lineup....MCI...ELI...Wallace....expect a lot of brutality on offence and a classic Bomber pound the rock game Loving the dline set-up....now just limit Thomas reps....well...minimize/eliminate them would be ideal but a lot of options there now....I expect Adams lined up in multiple roles...well should be Playoff preview lineup?....

I’m okay with the 3 man fronts, as long as they don’t totally telegraph that only 3 are rushing and occasionally send a LB. And of course, don’t have Thomas as one of the three. wbbfan and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearpants Posted October 25 Report Share Posted October 25 I like Fox on for Haba... Adams can take reps at DE... and we know he's been a load to handle there... if we could find a competent Canadian DE to include in the rotation (which still might be Hubert but obviously the teams feels he needs some more seasoning first) we could get back to having a dominant D-line... which was so key to our success in '19 and '21 Noeller, Piggy 1, wbbfan and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lineup notes: The Alouettes will be making a handful of changes ahead of this game. They’ll be welcoming Austin Mack, Walter Fletcher, Brock Gowanlock and Theo Grant back in the lineup. Receiver Tyjon Lindsey will be making his Alouettes debut. He’ll be handling return duties with James Letcher Jr. sitting out this week. Josh Donovan, who appeared to suffer a lower-body injury in last Saturday’s game against the B.C. Lions, won’t be in the lineup. He’s been placed on the one-game injured list. Defensive end Isaac Adeyemi-Berglund is also out. Heading into this final game of the season, Adeyemi-Berglund leads the team in quarterback sacks, with seven. Star defensive tackle Mustafa Johnson will miss his third straight game. He’s second on the team in sacks, with three. Offensive tackle Jamar McGloster, who replaced Donovan in B.C., is considered a game-time decision for this game. The veteran was the starter at right tackle in the second half of last season and the Grey Cup, but he’s been limited to one game due to a back injury. https://en.montrealalouettes.com/2024/10/25/preview-wpg-at-mtl-week-21/ JCon and HardCoreBlue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t want to be one and done in the playoffs last Toronto was last season. They haven’t played great in the second half of the season and this game can inspire a lot of confidence for the ALs heading into the playoffs. Ultimately for Winnipeg we’re in this situation for a reason. We still control our own destiny. To be the best we have to beat the best so looking forward to seeing a focused hungry Winnipeg team that’s going to take care of business and wrap up the western finals. wbbfan and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still expect similar game time management as last week for them. They want the confidence but they don't want to get needlessly banged up either - they already lost the starting RT last week and his replacement is a GTD so they don't want to add to that list.

That and bucks play call. Other wise, this roster is excellent. I’d love to see an aggressive rotation of guys like Cole, ayers, and jones. I don’t wanna see either hallett in covering guys. And a good volume of snaps for Adam’s/fox. If we do that mtl is in trouble. If buck doesn’t trip over his playbook and get stuck in a flashback to Lapo this will be a slam dunk.

I’m hoping we see some more youth movement in the off season replacing Noah. yeah I really would love to see ayers and Cole on the field together. Seeing. Cole at S with two imp lbers would be nice too. I really want to see Adam’s, woods, and fox out in the 30 front. Running wj as a jack would be even better. I think sending him to rush as a stand up guy would add a lot of longevity to his career. But those 3 as 3i 0/1 would be a huge handful.

He's got good speed and football sense as well as a good tackler. would really make our secondary even more formidable Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
