I think our scheme will make the bad Vaj appear....and missing the Vet Beggleton aint gonna help their receiving group

3 keys for me. 

 

Come out ready to play, this is the made-up bowl game for Calgary, but they are really the 2nd-best team in the west right now, and I think they will be in 2nd at the end of the year. Can't sleep on them.

 

Beat FGs with TDs. Our offense leads the league in pts per game, and our D has given up the fewest pts per game. But Calgary has given up the fewest TDs. Calgary is tied for scoring the 2nd most FGs and giving up the 2nd most FGs. But they are dead last in TDs scored. Don't allow their D to hold us to FGs, keep them kicking FGs. 

Bully ball. Calgary is giving up the highest Yard Per Carry in the league, and the 3rd most rush yards. Calgary also has the 2nd most rushing yards, so we have to be the bully and not get bullied. 

The Vaj factor. Don't give him easy, quick decisions, change looks, and give him the opportunity to give the ball back to us. Early season Vaj likes to run for yards more than in the 2/3 and final third. We gotta be ready to contain and punish him if he tries to run. 

Players to watch;

Brady is coming back early after his injury. We will see if his reps are split and how ready he is.

Vanterpool, drawing back in, should be motivated to try to cement his position as a starter, which should provide a boost to run pro too.

Sergio, it's gonna be a big kicking game unless it's a blowout. He's been money on FGs, but shaky on XPTs so far.

Vaval, he's bound to break one. Calgary has one of the biggest advantages in the league in net punting, kick-offs, and field goals. Vaval is the X factor in the teams today.

Parker,

Jones, WJ, and Vaughters. These guys have to contain and be gap sound in the run game. WJ has been beaten up the last couple of years on read options, Vaughters has not shown what we'd hoped when we got him, but is playing for his former team. This should be his best game of the year so far.

Devin Adams and Lawson have suffered from the massive amount of reps Thomas and Kornelson have been getting. Adams, in particular, has been quiet after a dominant camp and preseason. He's getting pressure when he's on the field and creating disruption. If he takes the next step, it should help him lock down a larger share of the reps.

In Calgary, it's going to be a tight game, as it always is on the road against the Stamps.

If you can present some pretty consistent adversity to VAJ where it's not all puppy dogs, lollipops and unicorns for him, it's been my observation that he usually has a difficult time working his way out of it.

Don't forget the ole goto shoulder shrug to give off the vibe implying  'look everyone I'm a warrior playing through basically a separated shoulder here' that will miraculously heal after the game. 🙂

Go Bombers

I was shocked to discover that VA hasn’t thrown a TD pass yet.

Not going to be any easier against WPG and no Begelton.

Wow. I thought he had 1, but he ran for that one. Pretty wild.

I know we all hate the riders... but it's ridiculous to suggest Cgy is a better team than Sask right now... maybe that changes by year end... but not today... unless you think the Bombers are the 3rd best team 🤔

They've played the same teams, ssk has taken advantage more of the teams they've faced who're banged up. And completely fluked into a win. 

I was talking about the west, but yes, I think Calgary is the 2nd best team in the west right now. I think the gaps between teams are really close in the west right now, but I think Calgary is better than SSK. And I think their far more experienced coaching staff will take them further. I constantly see red flags out of Mace as a HC.

Jack Jacobs and Dieter Brock wouldn't have been able to throw into that wind in Calgary last week....

You may wish to rethink that statement in light of the Rider starting QB is Maier now.
