Hope springs eternal....Bell fumbles early.....

...but Blue go 2 and out.... then miss FG....

Methinks, that was some sort of omen....

Bomber D looking good...in first half

Westerman really getting into the groove....

Adams getting some respect on the corner....

Hurl still questionable as MLB...

Both teams doing it on D, in the rain....4-3 at the half

Blue O looking pretty predictable....can't handle pressure..

As soon as run works....we go away from it....

Bombers not handing 4 man rush....or for that matter 3...

Tyler and Picard...having their struggles

40 minute mark...the ole fatal tipping point....
....Willy sandwiched...leaves with knee injury.....

As soon as the Willy went down....Bomber went flaccid....

The rain then stopped.... so did our team....

...Drew hit low...league apology coming, after the fact...

Bombers deal with the adversity...in the usual manner...

...allowing a long punt return, followed by TD....

Brohn, to the surprise of everybody comes in.....

..and promptly tosses a pick, albeit, with blown PI call....

James Franklin promptly throws a TD pass to Bowman....

Richards then plays trained seal with a pass....for another pick..

....setting up another easy Franklin TD pass

Bell eludes 3 Bomber tackles for 70 yards....

...setting up, you guessed it, yet another Franklin TD pass...

Brohm's TD/INT ratio?  now 0-5.......

Assume that Marve is still hurt....or there will be blood....

28 straight points for Edmonton, after Willy down....

Give up 3 TD passes to the 3rd string guy...in less than a half...

Discipline problem again...plethora of dumb penalties....

Refs were pretty bad....but Bombers lost on merit....

Another great Western road swing.....

Blow one game....get blown out, in the other.....

Tackling on D, fell off in 2nd half....

Another key special team breakdown, then INTs...

...giving Esks a short field for easy scores....

Blue tired of the beat downs, in Edmonton?......guess not.

From MOS, on down....having real doubts about coaching....'

Team lacks jam, and may simply be toast....

DOD lacks patience, right now.. and may simply be burnt....

I wish the positivists would show up and say something. They always say the negatives only show up after a loss. How come they only show up after a win?

It's better to wait a day or two for the noise to die down. Once the OMG THE WORLD IS ENDING!!!! posts fade out a rational discussion can be had about what's gone wrong.

 

For me, I was much more upset about Stamps game than I was about last night. We had the game in Calgary and blew it. Last night is a game that's easy to forget b/c it's just one of those games where everything goes wrong. I don't think it's a reflection of how good we can be.

True, Boltus is probably worse. Dinwiddie at least had a few decent games.

It's not that I want to see Marve play, I just don't want to see Brohm play....

I actually agree with this. Brohm has shown nothing at all. How long can his leash be really.

When people are content, they don't speak up.  It's when they are frustrated that they raise their voice.  It's just human nature.

 

If I recall correctly, the pass to Richards was not a well thrown ball, which is why Richards was laying on the turf to catch it.  It did hit his hands though, so he should have had it.

 

Watching Brohm out there was frustrating.  I wanted to see Marve as well and could not understand why they where not putting him in. 

 

But, if Marve was hurt then that would explain it.

Even Jason Vega feels bad for Marve

Someone pay Marve's ransom. That's gotta be it right?

If we can  ignore the conspiracy theorists.  Marve hasn't been our short yardage QB for a couple of games now.  So its quite possible that is injury is real.

It'd be nice if our HC would explain the situation & tell us what is going on with Marve. But he's too busy balancing that huge 2 by 4 on his shoulder for that. 

A little clarity would go a long way here.  If Marve is hurt, then Brohm had/has to go in.  Simple.  MOS is simply doing himself no favors, here.

And by the way: exactly how was Stoudemire better than the returner (Veltung)he replaced?

I was wondering about that too, but then I checked the roster and noticed that Veltung is on the injured list.

He's not really injured.

Veltung is way better. If he isn't hurt then he should be doing the returning.

Stoudermire got the fat long-term contract tho.

so that explains it

Gllllleat (Scottish accent).

Stoudermire was among the best returners in the league last year. I'm willing to give him another game.

I think they need to find a way for both Veltung and Stoudemire to be on the game day roster.

If Moore is out this week, we will likely see that.

No matter who is the returner, if we don't block better for him, we will get the same result.

Or you know like last night the kicker keeps angling it out of bounds. Seriously if Shaw had 10 punts 9 of them were angled out of bounds. Dude was money last night on his punts. It's the Brandon banks thing really. Just like with banks teams know Stoudemire can make a difference so they try to kick it away from him. Last night shaw was money

Whatever kicks Stoudemire did field, he had virtually no room to move before the Esks were right on top of him.

He's not getting it done and the other guy has gotten it done, isn't that the entire basis of your Marve vs. Brohm support? Why the different opinion here? Stoudemire might have been great last year, but this year he's been useless and actually a detriment to the team whereas Veltung has been good. 2 chances is plenty in my opinion, when the CFL is as tight as it is you can't piss away games letting guys figure it out. 

With all the talk (and hopes) of changing the (losing) culture, round here.........it is time for some actual accountability and responsiblity moving forward.....peoples jobs should really be on the line....about now..
