Brandon Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I'm ok with him... I do think we have talented guys who simply were a victim of a bad scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I'm ok with him... I do think we have talented guys who simply were a victim of a bad scheme. We had some poor players who were victims of poor coaching. Enough blame to go around. Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPuDS Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Hall is a very good coordinator IF he is given the talent.. Is now up to Walters to get him a legit MLB and firm up the Dline.. But I am pretty stoked at this if true... Much more traditional and less "out there" then etch was AND a plethora of experience and success..

Mr Dee Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 The Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Hall are in contract negotiations and if things continue to positively move forward, Hall could be named defensive coordinator as early as next week. - Gary Lawless - Winnipeg Free Press Bringing in a new DC ala Richie Hall brings excitement and new ideas and an openness to the rest of the league that will invite more acceptance for Free Agents to consider coming to the 'Peg. And on that theme, can we expect a little sugar sweetness with some of the pending Rider FAs who may have followed Hall's thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 IF it's Hall, I'm a happy camper. His defences have been solid both in Sask and Edm.. Thought to be a little too conservative sometimes but you can't deny he has the credentials. He'll have our D playing to it's potential and stay away from the Etch-a-sketch shenanigans of the last year. Looking forward to see another well seasoned CFL coach come on board. Nothing wrong with being conservative. he helped develop guys like Stevie Baggs & John Chick over the years as well as many National players who flourished under his coaching. It's a great move if it happens. (Fingers crossed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBieber Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Richie Hall doesn't get the respect he deserves. Never has, never will. Only reason he was let go was because Chamblin had to save face somehow. James, Al Bundy, Floyd and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Blue Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 I like Hall > Benevides, but what is interesting is that Bomber brass seems to as well. They are going after some big names with those two and both seem to be interested in coming here. That's a positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Interesting nugget I just thought of. Didn't the Riders cut Kuale while Hall was DC? If Hall already knows how terrible Kuale is, I might finally get my wish of no more Kuale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.O.A.B. Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Im hoping Hall will bring in Mike Sinclair as his Defensive Line coach Floyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 I like Hall more... He's been a great DC in this league over a longer period of time... I want more of a sure thing and Hall is what that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Hall is as good as Stubler, nice move... now if MB can just change up his max protect schemes a bit, should be okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Will be interesting to see the reaction when Hall deploys personnel very similarly to Etcheverry. Guess what? If Wild is back, he'll be playing MLB. Our nose tackle will probably be 280, not 300, and he won't be sitting in the A gaps all game either. Scheme will be very similar. Usually 1 LB and/or the safety blitzing and tons of zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually 1 LB and/or the safety blitzing and tons of zone. But I'd assume Hall will pay more attention to run defense, right? That was the biggest shortcoming of Etch. Everyone wants to stop the run, but not many teams are scheming to do it because it has been rare for teams to continually rely on the run, Hall included. Will they run inside run in practice. Probably, but practices in season have so little contact that it is inconsequential to what happens on gameday. Players make plays, make tackles or they don't. Etcheverry is quirky, but his schemes aren't crazy relative to the rest of the league. The difference between Hall's D and Etcheverry's in 2014 was 7 yards per game and 2 first downs. The last game Hall coached his defense gave up 7 yards a carry when they knew Edmonton's QB's couldn't pass. There won't be a huge difference on the coaching side. Any change will come by upgrading personnel. Benevides would have been a huge departure from Etcheverry in terms of what kinds of players he prefers in the interior of the D and secondary, but Hall is very similar to Etcheverry.

Im sure you want them to have some say in it but full control? O'Shea said DC will have to fit the personnel, to a point: "You can?t have a guy come in and change everybody around you." #Bombers #bombers O'Shea says new DC will not have free rein to make player personnel decisions in going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
