Messam and Ford starting, Smith-Getzlaf-Dressler-Bagg...  Etch has his work cut out for him

 

Not sure I'm a fan for starting Jones over Hinse - I like Jones but is Hinse that bad that we need to mess with the ratio?

 

OShea showing a lot of faith in his roster, this will be a real test

Hinse has yet to start and seems to be behind Goosen already so that tells us something.  Jarvis Jones is a known commodity and this is a good opportunity for him to show that he belongs.  Going to be a tough game on the O-line regardless so I don't thing anyone of them is going to come out of the LDC looking great.  Wylie's got his hands full.

I just hope he's learned his lesson and will double-team Chick.

 

And that Grigsby shows up.

how do you consistently double team a DE that comes from all different areas? would rather see them design some plays to slow down the rush. The OL being able to get a good consistent push for the run game would help that.

Ottawa did a nice job, they used their FB a fair bit.  I expect to see Pontbriand a lot, maybe he even slides out for a catch or two.  Can't do it every down of course.

 

Early screens, play-action and some outside runs should help... not that we've seen a ton of that from MB but he did have some flashes last game of straying from his conservative tendencies.

This sounds perverted.......i like it

I like the idea of being aggressive and dictating how the game will be played.

Instead of guessing where Chick is going to be lining up, I'd rather they'd be guessing on what to do when seeing our different packages.

MotherF@##ker - I took Allen as my flex - I guess he's out. Damn it!!!!

I took Allen early in my fantaseh draft thinking that no matter who the riders used as RB was going to get yards, then Chamblin gave me the finger and benched him for a couple fumbles never to be seen again. 

Anyone going this year?

This sounds like a good idea.  Use Pontbriand in the backfield to "spot"  Chick and help the O-line keep him out of the backfield.

No, you can't get in on it, even if you bring party favours.

Anyone going this year?

I'm here and going to the game tomorrow. Arrived in Regina yesterday. Went to Riders practice today too.

Also here.

AH! you missed LaPo's coaches' Corner.  It's amazing how much that guy learnt since being here.

Lets hope when the new commish comes in that we get the LDC every 2 years. Sask ain't the poor cousin anymore. Neither is Calgary.

Didn't help them win the game though

I just want to see a Bomber win. Jim freaking Daley was the last Bomber coach to win one. With Kevin Glenn at QB tossing to Milt and Incompleterson.

If the Riders don't want Allen, I'd happily take him on our roster.

I was at Riders practice today. Based on what I saw, Messam will be heavily involved. Might even see him involved in the short passing game.

Bad idea not having Cotton on the roster this week. Run game will be important and if Grigbsy gets injured Volny is our RB.

Kyle Walters bought us a round of drinks at bushwakers

BC contained Chick quite well during their game. They obviously focused on him a lot. You have to know where he is at all times.

Anyone going this year?

Yup. In Saskatoon working. Booked the day off tomorrow. Leave for Regina at 9:30 AM. 

I am sure many things have been tried ... I am wondering whether Chick can be trap play blocked ... Doug Brown used to be consistently double teamed but Chick is quite different ... running straight at his end position (whether he is there or not) works for me ... I am sure we won't be running a T-formation instead of double tights (using Pot & Fitz in both) but it might help us be more flexible with a wandering Chick .... MB doesn't seem to be a genius at creativity ... strikes me more as an out muscle out-power them type and that's what worries me most

Chick didn't get any sacks but had tonnes of hurries and tackled Harris for a massive loss in the backfield.  Also, the attention paid to shutting him down meant a better day for the other guys on the D-Line.
