Bombers at Stumps GDT

[Goalie]

Stats are wild. Jake had the same amount of tackles as Willie and Devin and 1 more than Vaughters. Tony who sucked lead the team with 8 tackles. Stats. Holm had zero

Bottom line is Calgary was prepared for us and Bombers were not prepared. Overall it looks like Bombers hit their high water mark last year but the lack of preparedness for the opponent is on the coaches. My main takeaway: Collaros has become a receiver killer with his noodle arm and lack of accuracy. No wonder Schoen and Demski are hurt, they have to jump 12 feet high to snag the pass, or it's behind them, or it takes far too long to arrive. Many saw this coming 2 years ago - hoping Bombers would promote Dru Brown. Hopefully Jarious Jackson can intervene and help devise better schemes to help a QB who is in decline and has no O line protection. I know it won't happen but would prefer if Strev starts next game at QB.

Our star receivers with Collaros have been all big dudes and Demski when he gets wide open.

Now we're using Demski as a possession receiver, Clercius is the reliable guy for Zach, Schoen is busted, Wheatfall looks to be a threat so he's not getting much space, Sterns is 5'7.

Who is Darvin Adams?  Bailey?  Clercius has taken Wolitarsky's spot.

We have done a terrible job of building a receiving corps to suit what our QB likes to do.

The decision to pay Schoen who can't stay in the line up & not Lawler is going to cost us more than money

We had many on here saying the amount Lawler was paid was insanity due to the amount of games he only played the last few years. What do we do then?

We went withe the guy coming off of complete knee reconstruction.

Lawler broke 1000 yards once in his career to put this into perspective. Back in 21 and has never played a full season in reality. Schoen has broken over 1000 yards in both seasons he was healthy and played 18 and 16 games. Lawler has 25 TDs in 63 games. Schoen has 27 in 38 or so games. They kept the right guy.  Lawler ****** off. I’m sure they offered him a fair contract. I mean the guy hasn’t broken 1000 yards in 4 seasons now. Is almost 300k the going rate for 900 yards?  besides aren’t ppl going off on how Zach and his arm is washed. What’s it matter if lawler is here and Zach throwing 60 yard passes 50 yards. Isn’t the problem the QBs inability to actually throw a deep ball ?? You could have 5 Jerry rices or milt stegalls in their primes and im not sure it would matter if the qb was throwing into triple coverage half the time.

Well, that was embarrassing.  About the only Bombers who had decent games were Clercius and BradyO.  Everybody else stunk.

[Bigblue204]

before breaks they always seem to play crappy. It's really bizarre. It's been that way pretty consistently for a few years now.

[Noeller]

-Stamps coming off a bye

-Stamps coming off a really bad game

-VAJ is better then some people think

-Bombers going into a bye

-Bombers complacent thinking they're better than they are

Flush it and move on. If they stink out #FortHew in a couple weeks, with little to no pushback, then I'll start to worry..

Bighill plus bye week made Calgary look like a well prepared team.  Winnipeg was also just really not in the right headspace. Lots of opportunity to win that game. Interceptions.  Missed open receivers and when we did put the ball on the money we had sun in our eyes….  
 

glad we have a bye week and justification to make some changes.

I’m willing to give Sterns some credit too he’s finally playing to his potential.  Sask sterns minus the drops and fumbles is a decent little receiver. Hope that continues. 
 

Thought our kick cover teams were pretty good.

Let’s not act like Schoen got paid in the same ballpark as Lawler. Hoping we get Wilson back soon.

Disagree... watch it over and over and learn from the mistakes. This wasn't an isolated incident, this highlighted some problems that have been creeping in for a while 

[3rdand1.5]

My two cents

Firstly Cal. wanted it more, they hit harder, ran faster and made the tough plays.....we whiffed, seemed sluggish and made mistakes....

Zach had a poor game, but our offence wasn't as bad as it seemed IMO, the line did decent and Brady was doing well...we just got down so quick we went to well....I'm not sure what game plan we went to, but pre-game Flo said there goal was to make us sit back and throw.....and well the executed exactly that...yet some how it feels like we almost let them

 

Defence...ouch, Vaj could smoke a cigar and casually sip an old fashion before he needed to throw the ball....and on the odd play he couldn't he simple moved a little, did a roll and then resumed sipping his drink while looking for receiver. VAJ can be a very good QB, but I think any QB, Crum, Dolegala, Masoli, Arbuckle, hell Alex Moran from BMS could have beaten us last night......

Offence has some goat horns no doubt but defence definitely has the bigger goat horns in this one IMO
