James Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Bucknor's been doin fine, you'll be surprised how many pass knockdowns he has... I can think of two right off the top of my head, and he's always right there in coverage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Bucknor is playing much better than Jovon Johnson did last year, and he's a Canadian. Says a lot about what a great job Walters has done upgrading the talent level. Adrenaline_x and James 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says a lot about what a great job Walters has done upgrading the talent level. and how bad JJ has gotten (no offense to Bucknor though I agree he's been playing well). Oh, forgot, JJ is 'back' if he does say so himself. Adrenaline_x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Bucknor is in Stewarts spot and #RandleIsland is in JJ spot. Adrenaline_x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark H. Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 The important thing..... is that this team is changing the way.... it thinks Precisely. They actually had a workable Plan B when a Canadian lineman went down. When was the last time that happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBlue Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 This is a really nice thread Mike ... good insight on your part .... I am looking forward to Fitzgerald starting to shine .... I expect he could become an important slotback for us ... not a speedy Gonzales but owning the middle of the field when there is lots of traffic there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 As we thought 'outside the box' when we used our tight end formation and passed the ball to the tight ends, we thought outside the box when we signed players to utilize when the the need arose. Case in point…signing Feoli-Gudino to compliment Corey Watson when he inevitably went down. Worked out really fine so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do or die Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Plenty of teams pay lip service to the concept "next man up"....but, this team just does it, week in, week out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they had too. That being said. Toronto looks pathetic with they depth/ backups on offence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said. Toronto looks pathetic with they depth/ backups on offence. Well, if Watson, Moore AND Denmark went down at once, our depth might be a different story...

Chaosmonkey Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I think having to play Sewell at tackle was as big of a factor as not having Owens and Durie. The left tackle position was one of glaring weakness and the riders just exploited it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Case in point…signing Feoli-Gudino to compliment Corey Watson when he inevitably went down. Worked out really fine so far. Which is why I think so many on here dislike(d) the double tight end set. They remember it from the past, where the opposition always knew we were going to run when the extra blockers came out. Nothing like a few throws to the fullback to keep them off-balance.

Bigblue204 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I especially like the tight end set with all the smaller LBer's that seem to be trending with teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPuDS Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I especially like the tight end set with all the smaller LBer's that seem to be trending with teams. Yup. Watching beasts like fitzgerald get matched up with a sam in space is pretty entertaining... Even pontibrand would bulldoze thru most me thinks..

Valderan_CA Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I really liked how we used Pontbriand and Fitzgerald in our last game - it seems like we have been consistently increasing their workload every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
