Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on August 14, 2025, 06:36:11 PMRe-watched the second half of the last game last night, Zach has to be more decisive, lingering in the pocket too long led to a number of sacks. If the primary target is not open, he needs to get back to using his legs to move away and extend plays to keep out of the reach of defenders. So many times the pocket collapses on him and he seems to have no awareness he needs to get rid of the ball immediately.

If you watch, for 2+ seasons Zach has no ability to find the escape hole.  When he gets the happy feet and starts scrambling he always run straight to a defender.  And if you look carefully you'll see there's always 1-2 wide open escape routes the other direction.  He's like the reverse Mahomes.

Maybe we need to give him drills where our D surrounds him and he needs to find the escape path.  Just do that for 4 hours every day.

Either solve that our upgrade our OL so he has the Ricky Ray-level protection he requires.
Never go full Rider!

If losing 4 out of the last 5 aren't a wake up call for the team, then I don't know what would be.

Get it together. Somebody needs to make a play, not be the negative result of one the Redblacks plays.

GO BOMBERS.
One game at a time.
