Quote from: Blueforlife on Today at 03:10:07 PMTechno can you do a measurement for us on Zachs deep balls yesterday?

Slinging nasty on a dime most of the night

I had the one Singer throw at 50 plus.  Missed that live, was getting a napkin lol, poor time management lol

I haven't seen him sling like that for a long time, I was paranoid some throws were risky but I was simply worried from past games and was wrong every time!
Gut feels reagrevated something, just guessing.  I started an injury thread.
I may be wrong but to me Zach was putting more arc on the ball and dropping it onto an area where recievers could go after it.
  The other factor is him calling the plays more at the line of scrimmage vs Condell. He seemed to have s lot more confidence.
Whatever it was, he picked a good time , he also showed more mobility

It was all types of balls imo

100% arc drop in the basket on a dime

A few sans arc

A few classic Zach soft touch

His mobility went back 5 year lol

Yes he called so many auditbles

I very interesting take thanks

Quote from: Blue In BC on Today at 03:09:09 PMA few observations in no particular order:

1. Having Smith back was great but now we have an injury issue which may serious.
2. Not having Ayers available hurt our ST's. He is a very good ST player.
3. Soft coverage again means 2nd and long is practically a gimmee.
4. Kelly is still a liability. He may be getting better but he's not there yet.

Lastly but not insignificantly:

5. Singer was outstanding. Why we choose a 3 Canadian receiver plan from day one is baffling.
6. Vaval may have won that game with his play. 13 seconds into the 2nd half. WOW. I'm concerned he may an NFL look again.


Well well nice to see this turnaround

Ayers is worth a roster spot due to his demon ability on teams

Some great other points

Vaval could get a sniff, if Singer too small for NFL? Lock both up forever, blank cheque time

TBURGESS

Collaros put the bomb back in Bombers. 

Vaval's return TD turned the tide and likely won the game.

That missed FG hurt Calgary over and over. Make it and they don't go for 2 twice giving them 5 extra points. 

The receiver and DB get their feet tangled; no call. Davey throws the flag; the replay shows an unintentional PI, still no call. 

Calling Techno, on one TD announcer, says that's on the Bombers before the ball is thrown, no flag, TD stands. They don't show what they were talking about, but it looked like Calgary wanted a procedure call.

Why the h e double hockey sticks did Singer sit on the PR for most of the season? Without him, we lose. 

Calgary's DB's showed why the old adage 'He plays DB cuz he can't catch' more than once. 

Now we have at least 1 more meaningful game left. 

Did anyone take a picture of the 55 yard line? I would have. 
Plan for the worst. Hope for the best.
