GAME DAY

pierce was 10 of 19 b4 getting " hurt"

about 6 of those were dropped.

3 bad passes out of 19? c'mon man.

He also had Edwards for 6 and over threw him in the first quarter.

Just saying, 50% was well below the 70% he was cruising at in the first 2 games.

Hello All.

Tough game yesterday. It almost seemed to me that the Bombers were looking ahead in this game and Hamilton wanted it more. Dropped passes, tired defense, etc. The team needs to get back home and look at themselves in the mirror. The Bombers need to come out next week with a sense of urgency. Take it to Edmonton from the opening whistle and use the home crowd to feed off of. I think that this game can help right the ship and get them going.

What does everybody else think?

I think you got it right, Dave. We're a young team that's going to have some growing pains. It will take time and losses, but we'll be there.

Agree, Dan. It seems like half our defense has 18 games (Willis) or less (Hunt, Hopkins, Bowman, Stewart, Browne, etc) experience as starters in the league.

I wouldn't hang the rookies out to dry for this one. It was a tough night for the vets too.

The offence has shown they can compete, but the defence for 2 games in a row now got exposed in the middle. Not sure what was going in there but it's not good and needs to be fixed.

We need to be patient. There is a lot of inexperience on both offence and defence. Some changes may need to be made but please no talk of mass changes to the roster or firing half of the Bombers management, coaching and office staff.

Sweet mother of pearl, who's talking about firing anyone, lol.

We need to keep trying to find the right combinations, that's all. Definitely takes time, but we can't sit on our hands hoping it works itself out either.

Have you been to some of the other Bomber forums? Since the season has started I’ve seen posts calling for Walters and Reed to be fired. Talk about over-reacting, eh, Pigseye?!

The only other forum I visit is the Zone.

The rest are just 'fan boy clubs' imo.

17to85, juranboldenrules, do or die, those guys know their ball and keep me stitches.

I'm gonna be patient and see how this staff responds to the adversity. They appear to have made the right moves regarding the special teams, although the jury is still out on Serna and a return specialist. So I have faith that they will make the right moves in the other areas too.

If it's the same guy 17to85 was banned last season from the Extra Point but for good reason. I think half of the members threatened to quit if he wasn't given the boot and it wasn't the usual "fanboys" who he POed. I cheered when he was gone.

I have faith in management and the coaching staff too. Hopefully some of the injured guys will be back. I believe they said Logan will be ready. Hopefully Suber will be too.

17to85 banned from the EP, lol, I'm not surprised, he was very outspoken over a certain former Bomber HC who will remain nameless.

He's already set his sights on Reed, we'll see if is right about this one too.

It wasn’t his comments about a certain former HC that got him banned. Heck, there were a lot of people making comments about that coach who never got into any difficulty because of their comments. IIRC he was pretty abusive to a lot of members.

same guy living in calgary? that 17to85? the ultra negative thinks he knows everything, everyone else is wrong always guy? not surprised at all.

Yup, that's him.

Total bully, but he's right more often than he's wrong.

He really is. He knows what he’s talking about. No one likes to admit it though…lol
