August 9, 20213 yr Author comment_512889 Scouting the enemy. We are probably facing McBeth after his good performance against the Stamps. Thrown for 354yds with 2 TDs. He can scramble just like Collaros. Seems like he doesn't rely too much on the running game. They only have 56 rushing yds last Friday and 24 of those is his. In 2019, his stats against the Bombers: 388 yds 3 TDs 2 INTs with only 37 rush yds by the RB 343 yds 3 TDs 0 INTs with only 48 rush yds by the RBs Our young secondary will really be tested this week especially the De Boundary (Dee Alford and Dea Nichols).

August 9, 20213 yr comment_512894 I think it’s gonna be a battle in the trenches , IMO the Bombers have a far more superior O-line and a better D-line then Toronto. ZC will pick Toronto’s secondary apart
August 9, 20213 yr comment_512896 I’m not taking Toronto lightly. They looked as good as any team in week 1.
August 9, 20213 yr comment_512904 I thought T.O looked better than most, but our Lines will handle theirs easily, and I see Brady getting huge gobs of yards on them, and then Zack exploiting things...plus that tatse of how we effed up there last year is prob in the mouths and minds of the vets here still..I bet they lay a whooping

August 9, 20213 yr comment_512910 Toronto really surprised and looked like the second best team in week 1 after us. MBT is pretty underrated too. He's insane but a pretty good QB. Our D-line needs to get home or he could pick our secondary apart. Edited August 9, 20213 yr by Dr Zaius
August 9, 20213 yr Author comment_512914 I dont really have any concern with our DLs and LBs. Yeah our secondary really need to step this game since the Argos has better receivers than the Ticats. Alford was beaten twice by Acklin last week. This week the De Boundary will be facing Daniels and Rogers who I think are a better receivers than Acklin and Tucker.

Toronto's O-line is average at best, and once they get cranked up, the Bomber D-line will pour through. For all his quirkiness, MBT is a pretty good pivot, given a decent amount of time and good receivers.

We may have Darby back this week...savvy vet, who is good, and has seen T.O offence in camp...he won't be caught off-guard

I assume he will slot at the safety and Alexander will stay at SAM if Johnson is not good to go.

He had position on the pass, just jumped a tiny bit too early and couldn't secure the int.
August 9, 20213 yr comment_512930 When must Bombers disclose roster and injuries? What's Janarion Grant's status? And Josh Johnson? Will Kyrie Wilson be back this week? Darvin? Are the practices open to the public now that COVID restrictions have been relaxed? They should be open IMHO. If you can have 30,000 for a game, and the Bomber Store of course is open, then you should be able to accommodate a few prax watchers.
August 9, 20213 yr comment_512932 Brady Oliveira had a really fantastic first game as starting RB! A testament to the hogs and Brady's hard work. Still would like to see Johnny Augustine in there. How about a 1-2 Canadian RB punch? Edited August 9, 20213 yr by Doublezero
August 9, 20213 yr comment_512933 Darby at safety for the T.O games and BA at dime would be huge...he would be able to communicate a lot to the others what to look for from his spot

They'll release an official "Injury Report" sometime after practice...and prior to that, we'll see tweets from Bauming and Irving that will have some insight from practice itself.
August 9, 20213 yr comment_512945 MBT is much better then what a few critics on here who have to resort to calling him crazy. Athletically he has a quick release and a really strong arm, he can make throws across the field with no issues. I think this will be a perfect test to see where we are at.

That's not a comment on his abilities as a football player. I assume you've heard some of his interviews....

They played it out as if he's mentally all over the place when he's on the field as well. Made it seem like he's up and down emotionally as a player. I will say it's refreshing that TSN did point out that MBT did accumulate a lot of yards during garbage time last season which was true.
August 9, 20213 yr Author comment_512964 I'm guessing Johnson will be out for a while. Concussion maybe? Looks like Grant and Maruo is practicing. Edited August 9, 20213 yr by M.O.A.B.

Maruo tweeted on Friday that he was good - he took a pretty decent shot on ST that took his helmet off. They probably kept him out just as a precautionary measure. Johnson got hurt making a tackle but it was his arm - my 1st reaction was he broke it based on the way it just kinda flopped over when they hit the ground.
