SPuDS Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 There was nothing more for the defence to have done. They need the offence to DO something. You cannot keep making plays on defence when nothing is happening on the other side of the ball.The defence didn't make any plays, they are just as culpable as the offense and special teams for the loss.The defence made enough plays to give the offence a fighting chance. Problem is...there was no offence to give the defence a fighting chance.Who forced the 1st turnover? The defence. Who held the Sask offence to 2 FGs in the 1st half? Guess. Did the defence not stop the Riders to kick in the 3rd quarter, only to have the STs give the ball back? Did the defence fumble on the 22 yard line and give the Riders an easy TD? Did the defence call an absolutely terrible pass completion to an out-of-bounds rider at the 1 yard line? The defence was guilty of a penalty-aided drive that resulted in a TD...that was started by the contacting the kicker penalty. I don't blame the defence one iota for that ****-show...just the play calling. The Riders had 2 TD's called back on their own penalties or this thing was over before the Bombers even got the wind back. what a dumb argument.. those TDs dont happen without said penalties.. our d did their job minus dumb dumb penalties.. worst one was not on them tho.. willies st penalty crushed us.

Agree. Defense played great until they ran out of gas. They deserved better from our O & STs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Add a pure rush end to complement Westerman, a middle linebacker because we really need one, a big stout tackle to stop the run, and a shut down corner to take out the other teams best receiver for next year and this will have the best D in the league. They are so much improved from the beginning of the year and Hall is starting to get a little more aggressive in the schemes . Just a few more pieces. I actually agree with this sentiment... but its funny that you say all we need is a DE, MLB, DT and a CB and we'll be a great defence... that's a bit more than a few pieces, ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
