Quote from: Jesse on July 26, 2025, 11:19:28 PMI'll say it again, what happened to our pass defence?

Just like our OL... we let too many walk in FA, year after year, trickle trickle.

You know, there will come a time that the next man up in the dev pipeline will suck.  It appears we've hit that point.  I thought Bonds was already borderline last year, and now him and Bridges... I don't think they're CFL ready.

P.S. Look what a pumpfake can do for opening up guys!  Whodathunkit!  But hey Bombers, just do our normal game, never change, it'll be ok
Never go full Rider!

Can try to one up me time after time with no content or info, doesn't mean  it's valid
Bonds is average
Bridges has promise

Yeah Bonds bit

It's predominantly the same players tho. Bridges the only newbie.
My wife is amazing!

Quote from: Jesse on July 26, 2025, 11:21:21 PMYou know, it's possible for players to be below average, right?
Piling on for no reason and not providing content
Bonds is average
Bridges below and shows promise
You know it's possible to overstate the obvious right?

I always hear "CB is easier to play" and "you don't need to spend as much money there".  Ya, but it's clear that subpar corners cost you 30-50Y plays.  Often.  HBs have more help around (usually).  CBs are usually out on their own.

It's not piling on to talk about what's happening in front of us at this moment.

It's literally what we're all here for.

Nothing easy about corner imo

OL is doing good on the run so far.  Huge holes.  But this may be TOR not prioritizing run stop... yet...

So keep running until they stop us.

That's precisely what's been said about him since day 1.  In theory he should be great at run block.  Whether he can ever be "great" at pass pro remains to be seen.

If our OL plays like this and the weather is bad our O will be just fine
