You probably wouldn't have understood that either. NVM.  Youre wrong. Thats how bend but dont break defense works. Look at our 2 games against edmonton. 61/94 for 65% completion percentage 775 yards 8.25 yards per attempt and we beat them both times. Are the riders a passing team though? 5th in the league in passing yards, 8th in passing tds, 3rd fewest passing attempts etc. You have a good completion % and average but that is not indicative of a passing team. Volume is.Â

September 9, 20195 yr comment_424995 big plays happen, but you can correct those or some such thing. Afterall, they are the most injured team ANIEC!

September 9, 20195 yr comment_425014 I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out who the stud National DT they are missing is...is it 4 tackle and 1 sack Evan's???...or the 15 tackle 1 sack Evans of a year ago??? for 200k per year

September 9, 20195 yr comment_425021 Interesting decision for Walter's and O'Shea when the Bombers come back after their bye. I believe, Alexander, Jeffcoat and Nelson are all done with their 6-gamers. Â

September 9, 20195 yr comment_425037 Jeffcoat and Alexander when healthy are a lock to be back in the starting defense. A starting D-line of Jefferson, Nevis, Richardson and Jeffcoat with Roh, Kongbo and Jake rotating in will be just dominating Rios as the extra DB will make us very strong there as well, though how we use the DI's will be interesting when we have Lucky healthy, and you can't take Grant out, and even with all Lucky brings I think Bailey brings more as a pure receiver even though when thrown to, Lucky has pretty much caught everything save for may a drop or 2...though I can't recall cringing about any drops. Possibly we roll with Grant and Bailey as a DI with Medlock and Roh and go with Jones, Exume, Hallet and Wright as extra DB's...we have done that quite a few games so it's not unthinkable The thought though of after break getting back Harris..Jeffcoat..Alexander..Speller...hopefully Neufeld eventually Nichols and game time to get up to speed is a pretty comforting thought..especially now seeing as our depth guys and back-ups have got a lot of valuable playing time, so if an injury occurs late in year, or in play-offs guys are gonna be able to slot right in with basically next to no drop off...and lots of familiarity with the other starters
September 9, 20195 yr comment_425038 I have no idea what to do with our receivers when everyone is healthy. I'm actually not crazy about Whitehead being on the roster as I like Nelson and Grant more.
September 9, 20195 yr comment_425040 I am a big Bailey fan after that game. I liked his Peterman-like determination to get YAC.
September 9, 20195 yr comment_425043 Lucky brings more than Nelson I think...I also think Lapo hasn't quite figured out what to do with him yet....and he truly is one of the only few guys in the league who is a threat to take it to the house from anywhere...right now teams swarm him, so once we get other guys doing more...things will be more open for him....he also takes a lot of focus from defenses..especially with fakes to him which allows us to make big plays. Â
September 9, 20195 yr comment_425044 Adding Jeffcoat to our DL and Alexander to the secondary is fantastic. No idea what to do at receiver, although I agree Nelson has been passed by Grant.

Bombers were just "ok" and played a team who thought they could just walk in and get handed 2 points. They will bounce back and take first overall nothing to see here.
September 9, 20195 yr comment_425050 Some folks don't talk about him much....but getting Speller back, would be huge
