Official Game Day Thread - Winnipeg at Saskatchewan, August 31, 2025

[TecnoGenius]

Vant has been practicing in full for multiple weeks now.

Right, but he's still on IR, just 1GIR?

[Pete]

Our play calling is not good, we keep calling these long developing plays and we dont have the oline to back it up

[TecnoGenius]

that replay showing his head bounce was bad

He's left the game for less.  And he did the eye-rub thing.  That's his "I shouldn't keep playing this game" sign.

[Pete]

Concerned that in the seond half our dline is going to wear down

[TecnoGenius]

Why can't Brady run like that?

[Jesse]

Right, but he's still on IR, just 1GIR?

Yup. Just being stashed.

[Jesse]

Why can't Brady run like that?

Because we've only let him run 4 times.

Ya, how do you start a half, where you had 15 mins to get the set ready, with that penalty!?

That is an embarrassing penalty to take and an indicator there's a few people asleep on the sidelines. When I coached high school football I had one of my assistants count our players every play. The refs do it. You mean to tell me nobody on the bombers coaching staff is assigned this task?? Embarrassing

[TecnoGenius]

Yup. Just being stashed.

Ya, but could still be a bit iffy/owie.

We started 8 NATs today.  We could have put Vant in if he was 100%.

Remember how amazing our OL was with the Vant-LG lineup?

[Ducky]

Brady with 16 yards rushing = bombers lose.

If Collaros is out (again) game is done.

You're correct!! So much for our second half adjustments!!

[Pete]

to be expected when has hogan made 2nd half adjustments?

[TecnoGenius]

What is wrong with SSK OL that they are letting easy heat through?  I don't get it.  Fatboi free to attack Trevor?  I don't get it.  It should be easy peasy to stop our 4 man rush, ESPECIALLY the interior.

Great motor and hustle by Fatboi to get a hit on Trevor.  His head hit the turf on the side a tiny bit...

[TecnoGenius]

to be expected when has hogan made 2nd half adjustments?

To be fair Buck NEVER did either.  Everyone complained just the same when Buck was OC.

We have to go back to Lapo to remember any big HT adjustments.

[TecnoGenius]

Hey, I like it!  SSK does all these curls with big coming-back-to-ball moves.  That's how you beat the INTs and DBs on your back at time of completion.
