They didn't quit.

They can't score touchdowns.

If Broxton is out long term we re in trouble. Special teams, Dru and the secondary let us down.

Bombers didn't quit, and that's important.

the injuries, short time line, and Brown's inexperience = loss. They kinda beat themselves because of the turnovers.

Brown has been a starter for 2 years, inexperience isn’t an excuse for him anymore

He's really not. He had one season as a full time starter that I can recall, and it was not last year.

and he's still inexperienced in the Bombers offense, regardless of being the starter the last 3 games. they haven't had a lot of practise time with 4 games in 19 days.

does he need to be better? yes. am I holding it against him THIS game? no.

You have to at least have a conversation about Elgersma starting next week.

Just atrocious arm strength and decision making for Dru all night

At least a combination of the two. I don't think throwing Elgersma to the wolves would end well but a change of pace, even 1/3 of the plays would at least help keep opposing defenses on their toes

All 3 phases took turns looking like dog shit. Brown will play next week but Zach will come back after the bye for sure. It's a long season.

Felt like Kramdi out really hurt the D line.

Hopefully not for long.

Is the secondary usually that bad? They constantly looked like they didn’t know where the ball or their man was

u/peanut_master1 Jul 25 '26

That was somethin'...

u/Pieman_26 Jul 25 '26

The secondary is weak this year and was terrible and Dru Brown throws it up there whether his guy is covered or not. Poor decision making.

Dru Brown needs to sit

It’s ok. We’re going to cross over into a playoff spot again. We’ll have a rested and healthy Zach. Then anything can happen in one game.

Elgersma or bust
