Bombers' slide protection is losing to SAM blitzes, not edge rushers

Saskatchewan's Seyi Oladipo Jr. — a 23-year-old strong-side linebacker — posted 3 defensive tackles, 1 sack, 1 interception, and 1 pass knockdown against Winnipeg in Week 15. That's not a rookie flash; it's a schematic tell. Winnipeg's slide protection is consistently misidentifying the SAM, leaving Collaros exposed to interior A-gap pressures. Opponents have now generated 9 sacks from defensive backs/linebackers over the last five games.
