Odds and Sods - Game 9 - Calgary Stampeders at Winnipeg Blue Bombers

BLM throws nice pass to start Stamps drive....

BLM throws bad pass in end zone for Bucknor INT...

Bomber D line bringing some stunts, and pressure....

Marve has strong arm...but needs soft touch.....

We spent all that money on the OL, this year - for what?

Marve getting nervous in the service....

..bailing out of the pocket on every opportunity....

..whether he had to.....or not.

Blue give up 2 sacks on 3 man rush and a max protection package.....

Inexperienced QB...skeleton O playbook....real bad combination.....

Roll outs, option plays, screens, pitches?  Spread the field?

...like other teams are able to do.....

...even with their #2 and #3 QBs.......

Bellefeuille did a nice job of putting in a game plan for Marve..

I also enjoy drinking Drano and sleeping on a bed of nails...

130 yds in Offense...in the CFL?...laughable...

16 penalties didn't help matters, either..

Bryant Turner had his best game in a while.....

Westerman continues to be our best player on D.....

LB Bass shows great effort and hustle....

But the D efforts completely hamstrung..... by this inept offense....

...and two Marve INTs...that pretty well, gave Stamps 15 points...

8-3 Stamps at the half....

...time to make adjustments at home and come out strong..

...or get outscored 28-5....

Stamps run a great O game plan (DD) - all kinds of plays

R Eric Rogers is big, smooth and deadly....

Johnson and Bucknor had some struggles at DB....

Bombers start 2nd half with Marve pick for 7...

15-3 Stamps....might as well been 150-3....

Another Calgary TD, 5 minutes later...started the ole rush to Rum Hut

...and ensured 20 minutes of garbage time....

Speaking of garbage....Brohm went in....

....and proceeded to kill a number of prairie dogs, with pinpoint throws...

...obviously, in his 7th pro year...needs still more grooming.....

Marshall is not a bad back....when we remember he plays on this team...

You can still time some of the O developing plays, with a sundial.....

IGF continues to stand for... Inept Group Function.....

Bombers need to go back, watch the film and re-think...

I need to go back check the bottle, and re-drink....

Good as always but I prefer InGlorious Failure.

LOL!! Brohm went in & proceeded to kill a number of prairie dogs with his pinpoint throws. CLASSIC!!

Many thanks for these!   It's truly the only thing I look forward to each week with the Blue!!  These are gold! 

It was ODD how Brohm kept hitting the SOD.

GOD we really need a MOD...

Marcel has a designed play for Brohm, where he throws the ball at the receivers hoping for a one-hopper, but usually landing in the hands of the defender..

Just disguise our receivers as gophers......

Who's the name of our third stringer?

Hey, despite the blowouts, we're still in the playoff battle.

If the Riders sweep us.....would demand heads rolling on ground.....

Yeah, right. Now that's funny. LOL!

Hmm just looked at the schedule again and it's pretty bleak.

As much as I am NOT a Rider Fan and believe me I would rather slash my wrist that be one - I am kind of hoping that the Riders sweep the two from the Bombers which will put is in next year land. Then and only then can we tie a can to our OC and maybe even HC and start to put something together for 2016. Problem is who puts it together? So far the current Bomber brain trust (and that is a oxymoron if I ever heard one) have not done much to improve the team IMHO.

You should be ashamed of yourself with your choice of "hoped for" scenarios.

Imagine if O'Shea gets canned and MB promoted to head coach?

Well, that would solve the traffic problems around the stadium on games days.

That's why they need to fire MB now. Cuz yup he's the man if O'shea goes.

Ritchie Hall could also be named interim HC if O'Shea were fired.

15-3 Stamps....might as well been 150-3....

Which was exactly what the panel were alluding to in how the Bombers react when down Coaching? Players? Both.

Ritchie Hall could also be named interim HC if O'Shea were fired.

Better than Marcel but also not a great option. Bothe are proven HC failures at this level.

I know but it's only "interim".

Let's keep the loser tradition going ...

Jest some leftovers...

- On Bucknor's interception, I thought Bucknor made a nice read on BLM, and made a very nice play.

- I thought the defensive effort, especially in the 1st half, was outstanding. Lots of hustle, Gang tackling and lots of general disruption.

- in the game the Bombers had as much pressure from the defensive line as Calgary...the very big difference being BLM vs RM. BLM - experienced and has a good grasp of a good offence. Marve - a rookie's rookie with some sort of grasp of some sort of offensive game plan. Calgary had 5 sacks...Winnipeg 2 (I'd say, at least 2 sacks were Marve and his happy feet)

- spirited ST's play...blocked punt and lots of hustle.

Derek Jones was noticeable. As was...

C Randle 7 tackles

Denmark's effort on his tackle on the interception.

Lirim had an outstanding kicking day.

Stoudermire had his best game.

Westerman....again.

Not good..

The falloff in our team's play from Willy's injury, is eerily similar to Sask's collapse after Durant went down last year.

16 penalties.

Calgary averaged 11.8 yards per pass. The Bombers? 4.0 yards per pass.

Calgary - 23 1st downs Winnipeg? 10

That is all...
