We put up a pretty good effort last night against the Cats and i know we would have won if not for a couple of botched plays/mistakes and so on:
NUMBER ONE ---- Get Rid Of Serna already, he missed 2 easy field goals and he needs to be gonzo, now!! Bring in Medlock!!
NUMBER TWO ---- Adarius Bowman had a great game but his dropped pass with under 2 minutes to go may have cost us the game, it should have been an easy catch but receiver's are not perfect.
NUMBER THREE ---- Last play of the game from the five yard line Jyles tried to run it in (at least looked like it), he should of either thrown a ball into the endzone and let the receiever's do there job OR put in an extra blocker (FB) or two and let one of our guys try and punch it in, Jyles had a good game though with the exception of his fumble!!
NUMBER FOUR ---- Renaud is a great punter, but last night all of his punts were pretty crappy, i don't blame Renaud, i blame LaPo and Mack for letting him play with a brace on his kicking leg.
POSITIVES ----
- Jyles showed us that he is capable of running this offense when Buck is injured, granted his record as a Bomber is 0 wins and 2 Losses but the CGY game and Hamilton game we could have won.
- Beasley showed us his speed and ability as a returner and looked pretty good, he also looked good on Defense when he was in, just needs another game or 2 to read the offense better.
- Hicks played a pretty good game in his debut as well and just needs more playing time.
- The new guy Green was excellent on special teams and he should only get better.
- Stewart is improving every game and looked pretty good with his coverage.
NEGATIVES:
- SERNA, enough said!!
- What happened to the Suber that played in game one? Hopefully just had an off game!!
- Courtney Smith did not impress me one bit at LB.
- The defensive schemes were horrible, we allowed there receiver's to get open on almost every play by playing zone, playing 5 yards off the receiver will not cut it (that's Marshalls playbook .. LOL)
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE AND LOOKING FORWARD:
- I think we have a solid returner in Beasley which will keep Jovon fresh for his defensive assignments, if Jyles plays again we know he can get the job done. We are still better than Edmonton and BC, unless something miraculous happens to these two teams, we should make the playoffs (there are still 12 games to play).
T.J Harris, Logan and M.Bowman should be ready to go next game or the game after, Buck should return next game or game after BUT i am concerned that he may be worse off than LaPo and Mack are saying, he took starting reps last week in practice alongside Jyles and rumour was he was ready to go SO why didn't he attend the Bombers in Hamilton?
OUR SCHEDULE: We have 12 games remaining and next week in Winnipeg we HAVE TO BEAT the Cats, big game. Our remaining games WILL BE TOUGH GAMES withe the exception of a couple.
