Mr. Perfect Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 I'm not doubting the result, I expect us to win, that being said I wouldn't be suggesting this will be an easy game. The other team gets paid to play as well, and as they've shown a number of times this year, the Montreal defence is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasty Nate Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Etcheverry could have a big night if Montreal really is rotating three QBs Conversely, if Etch leaves some big gaps and als o-line start moosing our d-7 it could be another long night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USABomberfan Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Well, first half was anything but a beauty to watch. 2nd half, or 4th quarter rather, we finally pulled it off. Hopefully that got our O awake and ready for the LDC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnzo Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 good god, that first half was a toddler slap-fight. And those terrible pigeon-poop uniforms! Watching on TV I couldn't even identify who got straight-armed by Sutton in the 3rd. For a long time, the best looking thing on the field was J-Crompt's stache. Crompton looks like he got traded to the Als from 1976. comedygeek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crompton looks like he got traded to the Als from 1976. LOL - good one. As I mentioned in another thread - Crompton is the real deal. He was always the best looking (as in arm) QB here in Edmonton last year. He's from a first rate Division one University, has size, can scramble, he just needs some polishing and he'll be a gooder. Montreal is set now. As for us - is it me, or is the honeymoon with Drew Willy ending? Willy has not looked all that good last few weeks, including this week. Some very bad overthrows, missing wide open receivers and/or throwing the ball in a bad spot. Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm not jumping off his bandwagon, it's just that he's human afterall. He's same age as Crompton and is definitely ahead of him in the development stage but will be interesting to see where these two are when they are 30 (in their career progression that is).

Did you notice how when we actually were able to run the ball he looked better passing? He's not a guy who at this point can do everything with his arm, there's too many other issues going on for him to do everything, but when he's got support he is fine. Bellefeiulle needs to be more creative with the running game, but at least O'Shea finally told Grigsby to run hard and not pussyfoot around with the side ways running or stopping before hits the hole.

Mike Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I don't think it's Drew Willy so much as the circumstances he's being forced to operate under. As I said on Twitter during the game, the playcalling needing variety. In nearly every single one of our two and outs, we went either pass-pass or run-run and the offensive sets we used to do it were very telling as far as what we were going to do. If I can spot tendencies accurately, don't you think a defensive coordinator can? Once we went with a variety of calls and sets, we got the Montreal D on their heels and Willy had the time to stretch the field and operate how he likes to. Variety opens up the run game opens up the passing game. What I really like about Willy - when he's not on fire, he is able to recognize it and step into more of a game manager role. He doesn't compound his mistakes. Mr. Perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Disagree on Crompton, not impressive live. Lots of overthrows and poorly placed passes. Willy hasn't looked as good as early in the season but some drops hurt him, some poor playcalling but he got it done in the 4th. Right now, he's a good to very good QB with the potential to be elite.

17to85 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I thought the receivers let Willy down tonight, not only with some drops but when he was pressured or sacked it seemed to be because no one was open. Logan007 and bb.king 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I didn't think there was a lot of pressure on Willy tonight. Certainly no where near as much as the last time they played the Als. A couple of drops by the receivers on low balls which can be hard to catch. We had about 3 first downs going into the 4th quarter. At least he protected the ball this week. Willy's a first year starter. Every game's not going to be a gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do or die Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 The playcalls again were pretty vanilla - especially in the red zone. Receivers had a tough time getting open. Run game stank for 50 minutes. Considering we had 10 bloody days to prepare for this one....3 first downs in 3 quarters? Awful. D and special teams won the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BomberFan Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Pretty much a snoozefest until the last 2 mins of the 4th quarter. Crowd wasn't all that loud from where I was sitting. Didn't see the hold on the pick 6 in the last few seconds either, not that it mattered. If we lack offense against sask like we did for most of the game, we're probably hooped.
