Quote from: blue_or_die on December 01, 2025, 06:40:47 PMArbitrary? The commissioner and owners have been incredibly forthright in their careful research, planning and execution of these efforts. They've clearly communicated with their paying fanbase how these modifications will grow interest and revenues and make the league financially sustainable for decades to come. The people in charge know way more about football than you or me and so we shall put our unrelenting trust in them. Can you even name a time where they've made silly mistakes, dumbfounded initiatives or shown a lackadaisical approach to running the league?

It's time we all just calm down and be happy that the grown ups are running the league now and we are in good hands. Non-issue, handled internally.

Love it, you made my day!

Quote from: Blue In BC on December 01, 2025, 08:31:43 PMI'll take your word for it. I wasn't overly impressed by him this week in the game I watched partially. In fairness that's not much for me to go on in channel surfing some of the college games.

That said, being on our neg list doesn't mean he ever ends up in Canada. So we'll see if he gets drafted this spring.

I see Elgersma got a workout by the 49 niners.


Darn, that may delay his arrival another 6 months.

On a one year deal, why not?  We'll see what he can do.

Quote from: VictorRomano on December 01, 2025, 10:04:09 PMThe point of our defensive strategy for the last several seasons is to rush only 3 guys, and have 9 guys covering 5 recievers and an RB.  We're not trying to get a massive number of sacks and pressures buy throwing 5/6/7 rushers.....instead, we sit back and make plays on the pass, with a few LB's hanging around the box to stop the short pass/scrambling QB, and blanket coverage on everyone deep.

The issue, I would argue, isn't the players, nor the coaching - it's the defensive scheme as a whole, from the top down.  Osh and Jordan need to answer for that.  We've just been able to be pretty good at that a few years ago when we had a lot of dominant players on D.  Now that we're about even with other teams in terms of skill, that scheme doesn't seem to be working as well.

The defensive scheme is on Jordan Younger, Osh admitted he did not pay enough attention to what his coords were doing this season and plans to rectify that.  3 man fronts work against mediocre QB' but not effectively against the best, Younger needs to stop trying to be clever in those situations and use what actually works. Wouldn't be so sad if Younger moved on and Richie Hall climbed back into the saddle again, the old man may not be flashy but he's rockin' 4 GC rings.

Quote from: Pigskin on December 01, 2025, 11:00:45 PMWe had Fox on our PR for 2 years. Goes to Hamilton and records 26 DTs. I think Woods might be a keeper. 4 games 10 DTs. But, we might actually have to give him a bump in salary. 

Is 26 tackles (with no sacks/FF or any other stats) on the league's worst rushing defence good?

Quote from: blue_gold_84 on December 01, 2025, 05:54:39 PMThe interior of the D-line needs more beef; it's been too small recently. If the Bombers could find another Nevis and/or Richardson type, that would improve things, IMO.
