August 22, 201410 yr comment_75467 Why does the combo of two horrible ex-bomber QBs make me nervous?? If Alex Brink makes you nervous, perhaps you should see a physician. Two? Who's the other one? Mr. Wolf Eyes
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75468 Just looking at Mtl's depth chart... they really are only a QB away from being a good team.... good o-line + Whittaker @ RB + Carter/Green/Stafford at WR could be a good offense with the right QB.... In the CFL that's like looking at the loonie in your hand and saying "I'm only $999,999 away from being a millionaire"... Montreal is proof positive that the only things that really matter in the CFL are coaching and quarterbacking.

August 22, 201410 yr comment_75471 I'm curious to see if Etch can make the adjustment in his scheme to stop the run. The Als' pass game is dreadful so stop the run and stopmthe Alouette offence. The defence for Montreal is still a pretty formidable group and they have an excellent coordinator with Thorpe. Our run defense has a hard time with Big powerful backs. We've been able to control the small shifty ones.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75474 Hopefully he is chucking deep balls so we can get a couple of Ints Mo Leggett will be licking his chops.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75478 Does anyone think that we lose this game by any means aside from Montreal running and dinking and dunking the ball on us?

August 22, 201410 yr comment_75483 Offensively, we need to both establish the run, and establish the screen pass. We do that, we not only slaughter the Als... other teams will take note, and the pass rushes will slow up. Defensively, we need to tackle. Pretty simple.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75486 Does anyone think that we lose this game by any means aside from Montreal running and dinking and dunking the ball on us? We could lose on turnovers. or by ineffective offense which means that it just takes one big play from the Montreal offense to turn the game. There are lots of ways to lose a game in the CFL. No team is a free space no matter how terrible they are.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75487 Tonight might be one of those kind of boring games due to the possibility of some severe weather in the area. The weather may play a significant role, especially if it's anything like last nights rain.

August 22, 201410 yr comment_75495 I think outside of a qb, montreal is a good team, however with that being said, they are also a veteran team, They aren't getting any younger... They are almost like the San Jose Sharks of the NHL, veteran team who has a small window to win still, but soon will have to go through a rebuild. Only difference with the Sharks is montreal has won a couple cups the last few years, but.... older team starting to show some signs of their age IMO.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75499 No clowning around on the run tonight .... make them look like bozo !
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75500 I'm not sure how much of a role the run game will play tonight, on both sides of the ball.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75501 Still have to disagree with those on the reason we lost to Sask. - I still say it was because of the turnover stat. 5-0 You have every right to disagree but I believe at least 2 and maybe 3 of those turnovers were the direct result of Stublejumper pressure, and their running game denied the Bomber offense any chance to close the game out. If we'd had a decent running game, we could have not needed to try high-risk passes and kept the opposing offenses off the field.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75503 Have a feeling Willy might be in for big night. Just a gut feeling.

If we'd had a decent running game, we could have not needed to try high-risk passes and kept the opposing offenses off the field. Nothing quite like a pick 6 with under 2 1/2 minutes to go, on a bad read/play call, to virtually hand the game over. Sask. did nothing outside of 4 points with that mighty run offence you keep mentioning. We didn't have a run game, they didn't have a pass game, and yet our offence scored. Go figure.
August 22, 201410 yr comment_75515 The last time we had enough time to prepare for a team (Tor), we came out flying, I'm not expecting anything different this game.
