Beautiful drive!

 

[Holden Caulfield]

When it's good it looks so easy lol

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Touch…down?

Finally something resembling a professional football drive.

 

[None]

Getting beaten by a flea flicker is a bit embarrassing

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Horribly underthrown ball, looked like an easy pick for Alexander. Somehow becomes a TD.

 

[SUX2BU]

Nielsen and Suitor are double dionks

 

[AussieBomberJet]

Bloody hell....getting Legless vibes.

 

[SUX2BU]

Shut up rybelsus

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Brady breaks the goose egg!

 

[SUX2BU]

[Holden Caulfield]

TD great. QB change, me no likey. We had Ford tonight, new O coming on.

I don’t mind MBT coming in. Mr. Checkdown, and don’t have to worry about that read option with Ford and Rankin.

Helmet to helmet, should be 15 yard penalty.

 

[AussieBomberJet]

Finally, a decent lead!

 

[AussieBomberJet]

Man, Commonwealth was empty tonight.

 

[DerekDevils30]

It’s usually not pretty but this team just keeps winning

 

[bustamente]

Brady O, that is all

You were certainly right haha

Tre Ford is garbage.

 

[Holden Caulfield]

Tre Ford is garbage.

To be fair, this same Bombers D held what was at the time the leading contender for MOP to just 4 first downs and derailed his season. I think Ford is a fine QB, just this Bombers D is REALLY good.

 

[gojetsgo]

more good then bad, couple drops and missed fg's kept the game closer then it should have been, gotta fix that run d

Tre is slow minded. His progressions are slow and he panicks after is 1st/2nd reads aren't there and I don't think he is athletic enough to worry too much about when everything breaks down.

Horribly underthrown ball, looked like an easy pick for Alexander. Somehow becomes a TD.

Alexander was totally static, stood there waiting for the ball to get to him, somehow not thinking that the opponent would also want the ball and make a move to actively go get it. It was the same passive approach Willie Jefferson used when he let the other team jump all over him on that onside kick a couple of games ago. I think Ford would have been more aggressive on that pass, surging forward to at least create an incompletion if not a pick.

Generally speaking that was a scary game for the most part. Too close for comfort. Good thing Oliveira was there to save the day; I guess he got some blocking too, so good for the hogs. I thought the Bombers' lesser-light receivers also did well.

Wheatfall 3-43, big upgrade over Johnson.
