Official Game Day Thread - Saskatchewan at Winnipeg , September 6, 2025

[Pete]

Start using ALL of your receivers just not 2 of them for starters. Teams know they have to key on demski Wilson and brady and nobody else plays a significant role in the offense. Wheatie and clercius may as well have stayed on the bench today. Look at riders offense, yes they run the ball with outlets but they also pass to ALL of their receivers because they are scheming that the defense is going to be keying on receiver #1 and 2, we don't go beyond that,

Our offense is sooooo predictable with Steve and his RPO only play it's pathetic, simply pathetic. Empty the backfield and make the linebackers cover , roll Strev out of the pocket and quit making him a sitting dead duck, he rolls out, 2 receivers run deep 4 on short passing routes, dunk and dunk the ball and worse case Strev has to pull it down and run but he can under that scheme because he's rolling out of the pocket ready to open field and he's a runner. Nope, we let him sit back with a bogus o line run the rpo to Brady or pass flat footed. It's truly sad that that's all we have for creativity offensively. We rebgoing nowhere with him at OC . Nowhere

add to that the lack of second half adjustments (not just this game)

[Tecno]

Hand it to SSK, they looked at what worked for us last week and adjusted the entire D to get blanket deep coverage and 2 guys on every deep route by the time the ball arrives.

What I find aggravating is that after we saw this is what they had done, we (Hogan) kept just doing the same thing!  If they were taking away the deep, we should have been going mid & short (haha), and more Brady dumps and hitches.

SSK adjusted during the week.  We didn't.

Oh wait!  We did adjust!  On D.  We went from a 4 man pass rush that worked fairly well last week to a lotsa-3-man-rush scheme that clearly wasn't working!

Oh ya, and we let the Liver King run outside on us again over and over again with little resistance again.  If I could see they were abusing the DEs and the outside, surely our DC(s) did?  Did you guys see Yoshi strutting around demoralizing our players at every opportunity (and pancaking his junk on players on the turf)?

I really think Hogan & Younger are not putting in the effort, brains, or hours required to win these games.  And if this is the max their brains can do, we need smarter coordinators.  At least it didn't come down to another vanilla, pathetic 2PAT...

potentially we have gotten "fat n sassy"

Welp Goldie gets to run out on the field with the team today for introductions.
Maybe this will bring some good fortune to BIG BLUE today?
Need a win!

Love your dance moves on the sidelines during warm ups...  I had my eyes on you LOL

What was funny was Goldie still doing dances in the middle of the field when everyone wanted to get the O announcements going!  I thought for a sec the P.A. guy was going to say "Goldie, get off the field!".

     

[barbk]

JT, Korn
JT, Korn, HC, OC.

Why don't you have Strevy on that list?  My grandson could do a better job throwing the ball and he is 10 years old.

[Blueforlife]

potentially we have gotten "fat n sassy"

This saying doesn't accurately describe our situation and is a generalization imo
We have gotten average, came back down to earth after an epic run, the fat lady hasn't sung yet, believe

[barbk]

Stegall making a big statement that Collaros should never play another football game.  Even saying the medical and coaching staff will make the right decision, but those higher up (mentioning the board) should now want him playing again for Zach's own good.

And they didn't make the right decision on Dalton Schoen....  O'Shea has no respect in lying to the fans/media on the coach's show on Tuesday and stated Schoen was good.

[Tecno]

After they creamed Zach, we should have run some pressure packages to let the guys get revenge.  At least give them a couple of blitz looks to give Tony & Kyrie a shot.  Instead we go... 3 man rush.

No worries Trev!

You do all realize we'll likely keep Zach out 2 weeks, right?  From what I saw at the stadium he was out cold.  That isn't going to be a back-next-week thing.  This will be the miss-1-or-2-games thing.

[Tecno]

Serious question, did we blitz even once on a passing down?  I didn't see it.

And we aren't making the playoffs. This season is over

No we didn't. Our offensive and defensive schemes have got to be questioned/challenged both are getting worse not better

I bet a dollar Zach will, play next game.

Watching ALL of the other teams look better than us this week, is a bummer.

Why they tried to pass, end of the first half, interception then three points to Sask. I don't get it. Go into half time on a downer. That is one hundred percent on the Offensive coach.

I have a feeling he will be fine

Not all on the OC imo

My orders of issues today is:
OL
OC
Qb

Many teams look on the positive swing

We still working on our swing and one chain broke today
