October 11, 20159 yr comment_160089 i was yelling at the tv to snap the ball, i thought they were close to being called for a time count , he did the right thing by calling the timeout i see goossen played the whole 2nd half, did anyone see what happened Picard had an upper body injury. Goossen is ready to start. Didn't miss a beat with him in there. His snaps didn't float either like Picard's. Actually - I have to disagree a bit with you on that one g-bill. We did miss a beat - a big beat - as in Picards' standard roughing call he always gets (like in first half), a sure hold he would have done on Denmark's TD, and I'm sure he'd have had a few 'blown' assignments where Nichols would have been blown up. Not saying I don't mind missing those beats though Overall - what a second half. Tracker opined in the chat if the bombers had ever come back before to win a game (this year) well we know now. I wrote the team off in the first half but glad I stuck with it in the second half. Oh - Castillo for Mayor - did extremely well and didn't seem to mind the long converts at all (only had to kick two of them though but was money both times) lol yea, you could certainly make an argument that Goossen is an upgrade over Picard. Only thing with Picard out is that it creates a bit of a ratio issue. Same with Kohlert...Bastien might be our only healthy NI receiver at the moment.
October 11, 20159 yr comment_160094 Gossen/Chung/Neufeld/Westerman/Bastian/Bucknor/Hurl is 7.I know but you need backups. If Bastien gets injured, no Canadian WR to step in. It's doable but leaves us very thin.
October 11, 20159 yr comment_160096 I thought TSN showed a graphic of how Lirim started the season out well butbhad a really low average in the last half of games..
October 11, 20159 yr comment_160112 Not just LH percentages but they minimized opportunities for him to have back-breaking ****-ups. He just needed to punt, which he did well. Looked like that let him clear his head
October 11, 20159 yr comment_160126 I believe we also blocked an extra point attempt too....it was a great special teams performance One blocked kick One partial blocked kick 5-5 on FG 2-2 on converts Great KO's Some good returns The kind of special teams that we had all envisioned, when MOS came aboard. Picard pulled (finally) and signs of emotion and passion on the sidelines, tonight. Interesting to see if this was a "turn the corner game" for O'Shea, moving forward
October 11, 20159 yr comment_160127 Good work by the D with 7 sacks in total. The D line contributed 4 so they're getting results from more then just Westerman and I thought Turner had his best game of the season so far.

October 11, 20159 yr comment_160129 - 7 sacks - great to see that pressure. - in the "get a haircut" category ...Troy "don't give them an easy tackling target" Stoudermire. Otherwise, Stoudermire showed his versatility and rewarded the faith the Coaching staff had in him. Nice runs, and some clutch receiver work as a stand in and 2 tackles. - somebody found Castillo. Thank you somebody...at least for now. - still have to admire Cortez's attack plan on us in the 1st half and the execution by Jennings and his receivers. - then again, you really have to admire how Hall and the defence handled that same BC offence, in the second half. - Ian Wild. He has had an enormous impact on.special teams since his signing. Everybody now wants to get in on his special plays. Awesome leader, and pretty darn good on defence too. - Jamaal Westerman - 2 sacks, and 4 tackles. CFL sack leader. - Johnny Adams - 1int. and 4 tackles, 1 deflection. CFL interception leader. He helped spark that 2nd half defensive stand. - Maurice Leggett - sticker. That guy can hit. 6'tackles and 2 sacks. - Demond Washington - 4 tackles, 1 interception, and one red-face for next week's Sports Centre's highlight reel play....against him. - Khalil Bass - 5 tackles and 1 sack. - Mike O'Shea - thanks for putting the special back in Special Teams. This was a win. Finally, I'd like to say something nice about the offence, so - something nice about the offence. Other than that, I got nothing. But I did see Nichols frustration...in the play-calling...like thousands of other did.

October 11, 20159 yr comment_160137 So long as Bellefeuille is calling the offense, we will never know how good Nichols can be. It has to be really chafing for a decent quarterback to be forced to run a popgun offense when he can see how better plays could make big yards and win games.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160140 Nichols missed lots of throws. Yeah play calling was bad but Nichols didn't help. He wasn't good.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160142 Certainly was evident that our second half defensive changes really worked. The changes really got into the head of the BC quarterback he wasn't even close to the same player he was in the first half. Love the leadership of Ian Wild. Special teams were great. MB simply has to go, those inside runs are brutal, and incredibly predictable. I posted this last week, but Goosen looked really good in the warmup, and last night he looked great. How about that block on the right side he made to save Nichols from a sure sack?? Goodbye Picard.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160144 Gossen/Chung/Neufeld/Westerman/Bastian/Bucknor/Hurl is 7.I know but you need backups. If Bastien gets injured, no Canadian WR to step in. It's doable but leaves us very thin. I don't see why we can't sign a Kito Poblah or Jade Etienne to stand on the side lines and look pretty in case of an injury.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160145 Nichols missed lots of throws. Yeah play calling was bad but Nichols didn't help. He wasn't good. That one pass he missed Darvin on at the BC 20 yard line on second and 7 was just awful. No excuses for that.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160155 I must say when wild is on the field he makes the front 7 play better. The guy is an amazing Blitzer, causing the QB to flush the pocket the quarterback imo he is a big reason with the increased sack totals. Also turner had his best game of the year. I think the only major weakness of the d is buckonor on the weak side. When you sit 15 yards back from the LOS and is still in a trailing position on a go rout it is not very promising for a aging player
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160157 An argument can be made for Ian Wild being our MVP. He's a legit, but underrated, stud.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160160 An argument can be made for Ian Wild being our MVP. He's a legit, but underrated, stud. Not much of one tho. If he was here all season sure but bass Westerman and Adams are the MVPS of this team.

If he was here all season sure but bass Westerman and Adams are the MVPS of this team.Ya not saying for the entire season because he wasn't here for most of it. I just meant on a per game basis, in terms of a difference maker. He's right there with Westerman.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160184 So how do they get Wild on the field for every snap?Injury, or go to a 3-4 defense.
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160186 Id like to see a 3-4. Anderson and Collins rotating at NT with Westerman and Turner off the edges. Bass Wild Hurl and Leggett would be a treat to watch
October 12, 20159 yr comment_160190 I agree mr dee, stoudemire has really gotten much better, for three or four games at least. and in this game he played offence defence and special teams. all well. He is becoming a really good player. Also, I thought the runs through the middle, and left and right side, started to work pretty well in the second half. Nichols didn't have that good a game.

I thought it was reported (albeit here, so take that for what it's worth) that jade was done with football... I'd be interested in seeing what Poblah would do as a jersey filler... too bad that rifles kid didn't work out...

Still can't understand why the Bombers didn't make room for him on the PR.
