I am concerned about the offensive game plan for todays game. I say this after reading a article where acting OC Danny M says that short passes mixed with Reid running is going to get the job done. Maybe it will be a great plan??? I am only worried because he suggested we where going to stay away from the deep throws, this is a change in thinking unless I am reading too much into it?
He said we cant just go out there and throw deep balls, he made a point of saying this, and he made a point of saying short passes with Reid running. I am not a believer in running the ball every other play! Over the season it has only happened a couple times when Bombers ran over people, over the season we have just wasted down after down, putting us in 2nd and long more often than not. Yes, a game plan where Reid rushes for 70-100 yards would be just fine, I am for that, but you need to pass atleast 60 % of the time, I say 70 + % is the way to go in the passing dept.
Bombers need to come out passing! The majority of the wins came via the air, especially in the last 6 games that got us this far. Going conservative at this point is a huge mistake IMHO. Also having the HC tell the papers that you dont know if the good or bad Bishop will show up today, combined with the idea of going away from the deep ball, does not give your QB a vote of confidence.
