Well, considering how much TSN hates the Bombers this half time show is going to be brutal.

I don't imagine the Bomber locker room is a very pleasant place to be right now.

Sterns is a wasted spot. CGY isn't respecting him and he's been open a lot. Zach doesn't even look his way. Need that 5th REC to be legit. Zach might need to trust Sterns a little more, like on that final pass play.

The Zipp · July 04, 2025, 02:24:49 AM

well we had our quarter of offensive incompetence...hogan and zach need to get this figured out.

a couple of turnovers and some big plays and we can get back in it but zach has to get his game head figured out

I think that field goal is the most demoralizing part of the game. Reminded me of Tim Burke having us take a knee at the 1/2 when down by a ton in Regina many years ago.

Curious to see how much fight they show in the second half

No, you take the points. Coming away with nothing (which was the likely outcome based on what we saw) would be worse.

MOS will never go for it this early.

zachs interception killed the team in the first qtr

The INT is on Zach. The other stuff isn't his head, it's his accuracy. I think CGY is covering very well. No one has been wide open, and DBs are there right after the catch.

This is more a failure of Hogan/Jarious. They are showing nothing that isn't on film. They are keeping it too simple. Look at all the double moves by CGY... nothing like that from us.

If we have a part of the book we haven't opened yet, now's the time to open it!

Good teams shake it off and overcome. One pick 6 shouldn't define a game.

Quote from: Sir Blue and Gold on July 04, 2025, 02:18:37 AMIf you don't think that 3 games in 13 days versus a team that's had 12 days off doesn't make a difference you don't know football.

We're not playing a good game but I'm not worried about this one.

I didn't say it doesn't make a difference. But we're not on a short week, and we've sucked since the first few minutes. I'd put more credence in it if it was happening later in the game or on a short week.

Bridges biting on a double move ( which he's been doing all season) is not fatigue. Collaros trying to fit a pass into a too tight window ( which he's been doing his entire career, you take the bad with the good) is not fatigue.
Our busted secondary coverage is not fatigue. Our D-line standing around trying to spy VA without pressure or penetration so he has all day to look through his reads is not fatigue.

Hopefully they'll put up more fight in the second half.

The INT was as much on Demski as Zach

Pigskin · July 04, 2025, 02:37:36 AM

#1D looking like a solid #2. No answer for Calgary's run game. Breakdowns again in the secondary costing us. Pick 6 sad.

if a qb's accuracy is off - it's his head - either thinking he is being pressured when he isn't or not recognizing a defence and forcing it.

the disappearing for a quarter or more - that is likely hogan not finding his groove yet. it's a really bad trend - hopefully it doesn't repeat in the third
