  8. I know you meant parity and I’m not trying to be pedantic. I legit find the idea of this season as a parody funny. Alberta sucks at football, the east is holding it’s own at the top, the bombers have had a 2015 type of loss, bc is only giving up 7 points per game, ssk attendance is mediocre, feels like this season is taking place in the twilight zone.

  13. Us giving a spot by default due to being here (Walker) piss poor draft..and then with an old an not so good no more Thomas...injured Hansen and a suspect health in Jeffcoat and not PR a legit DE prospect to groom ..and or DT is why we thin...weak ..and scrambling...issues in regards to depth and roster makeup which was brought up but most scoffed at. But we can PR a global olineman for yr 3 who will likely never see a true snap as a starter or backup ..a global punter...another import tackle in Ivy who is behind Richmond so likely never sees the field...another global db...whom I like actually and would prob serve more use on active roster than Mauro to be honest...and add in the lack of having a Canadian who can play Jackson's role so we don't burn a DI on that spot..that's the main issue with some injury problems right now. Plain and simple...would the addition of Wilson..Jeffcoat...Hansen...Rose...Parker..and then hopefully an impactful DI for Jackson make this squad look a lot diff... definitely...but how long is that gonna be? If they know it's basically right around the corner I can somewhat live with the b.s roster stuff...but if it's a who knows thing? Then time to make some moves/changes to tweak things to be more practical

  14. Lack of consistency/Chem is killing the secondary..and for whatever reason we are constant in a cushion allowing for easy short passing over and over and over..If you don't trust your guys to play man or press and are getting raped doin so then time to replace your DBS...will we switch up our game plan when Rose..Parker..possibly Muhamed are back/in..possibly We have an injury where we have zero coverage on in Jeffcoat..piss poor roster and PR management...Now if Jeffcoat was back starting...Haba spelling both off and or all 3 in together at times...with Hansen taking reps would make a world of difference....that and DT combo of Lawson and as it is now Fox...schmeckle should never see field and Thomas is toast...maybe a 6 to 9 rep a game guy now...we failed in recruitment and drafting for DL where we were thin...and gave Walker the spot by default in the winter soley cause he's been here 3 yrs? Shameful work by us The drafting of Bennet and the other 2 dt we took was weak..and killing us U seriously asked who?

  15. Hall's defence really started to come together when he was exempted from having to play any Natl. players in his secondary, that happened the day B.A. replaced Jeft Hecht at Safety.

  16. This is such a pants on head ******** comment to make. HAI GUYZ!!! TEH SKY IS BLUE!!!11!!1 BC played better than winnipeg did in the game, no ****... that's why winnipeg lost and BC won. That's not what anyone is arguing about. That wasn't the usual effort or execution level from many of the bomber players or coaches. THAT is what people are talking about. You can't deny that. The OL through 2 weeks was dominant and looked worse than the times we trotted out the likes of Skinny Dan Gyetvai at left tackle. But yeah must be totally just because of what BC was doing. sometimes guys have a stinker of a game. Did BC play well? yup they did. Did they look better than they would have because of some poor play from the Bombers? yup certainly happened too.

  24. I don't think Darby was pulled due to performance....he has played fine all year.....and if your roster replacement for him if he sucked is Kramdi...well then whats the point of pulling him?....When you look how we are set pre-snap....4 DB's off the LOS and giving 8 to 12 yard cushion, and having the safety play some odd hybrid role...well you get what we have witnessed....easy pitch and catch with our guys having to come up to make the play, The dline has to be in QB face in a matter of a second, and that not happening...Maybe if we had a stud or 2 in the middle collapsing the pocket immediately to hurry the QB a bit we could fend it off, but we aren't...and we cant...and we been pourus as a result. Go watch all the other games and see what they do....Guys are engaging receiver's right at l.o.s and or are playing tight coverage so many of the quick hitters or pitch and catch plays the DB's are right on them , almost draped on them as others fly in to clean up. We are sending one or 2 extra guys.....and have 4 dbs in a deep zone...and for us the DBS have to come up to close, and our guys making up the front 7...8...generally are in chase mode following up the play and as we have seen when you have some waify DB's who miss the tackle or cant wrap a guy up, you get those y.a.c plays that been killing us....thtas one of the reasons many here are saying we look old....or appear to be old as some of our playmakers are schemed to be either chasing...or running up to the play...and if you miss...well we seen the gouging going on. Surprisingly we have actually been fairly decent on the run, but I think it more a matter of teams are just not focusing on it as they know that sad sac scheme will be easy to exploit to eat up yardage and clock and gas the defense...Teams are smart, and see the poor depth on roster and know they can basically bag out our ends by making them run all game long chasing when we only have 2 effective ones on the roster, as opposed to letting them attack...same can be said on the DT spot....Fix the Dline..Jeffcoat back and a Hansen rotating in will go a long way...if they not gonna be back anytime soon bring in Lemon...no time to train up a new guy with upside, as we should have done that the day of final cuts on the PR...but no we cut all the prospects..a few of whom looked good in pre-season and in camp. Use one of our big bodied receivers...or even Gauthier or Briggs and the fullback blocking role and free up that DI spot for Mouhamad...Cole....Or a big bodied legit DT....and use em all in rotation...Briggs and Gauthier...have played CFL ball their whole lives, and am sure can do the role Jackson is doing from being here a grand total of 40 days or so...Dump that extra 7th oline guy who is taking up a spot for who knows what, and use it with a ST guy who can actually serve a purpose, and get reps....Or be an actual viable replacement candidate in case of an injury...seeing as they have Jake declared another oline guy and actually have gave him a number almost makes you think he would go in before this guy...like wtf is that all about and why even declare that?? Fix/address/realize these things and we go from looking like a middling confused "old" team to basically close to what we been the last few yrs...Offence I am not concerned about....unless the same crap happens back to back this week....or sporadically in games up to labour day...but I doubt it as we always throw out one stinker a yr. The sky is definitely not falling, and across the board I will take this team over any.....Osh and his Co-Ordinators just need to pull their heads out of their asses and look around....see whats going on and not rest on status quo and loyalty/allegience...whatever you wanna call it cause it worked in past...that stuff usually has 2..3...yr shelf life then you need to tweak/add/replace a few things...player and or scheme and way you attack....Teams have 4 yrs of film and history now to go after the Bombers as it's been status quo now basically since late 2019....correct that....and we will be sitting in the Hammer come Nov

  25. The story anyone with half a brain will tell is how the Lions played their very best against a team that really didn't show up ready, prepared, or motivated to do the same. Any given Sunday as they say. The Bombers took them lightly and played that way and found out they are a better team than the one they prepared for. I have absolutely zero doubt in my mind that this is the last time BC will beat us this year.

  29. Choosing prukop over pigrome would be a mistake imo. Pigrome could very well be the next starting qb for the Bombers.(could also be a total flop, time will tell) we don't really know what we have in him. We know exactly what Prukop is. Edm can sign Prukop. Piggy needs to be in blue and gold.

  39. It’s not just depth though. Walker isn’t good enough. Habba is depth and he’s going to be a star. 4 games less than 5 weeks 4 sacks and a bunch of tackles. We need to get healthy and we need to pick and nose and go with them.

  41. Lawson starting and having Jake rotate in for him might help imo. I agree we need an upgrade for Walker and one more rotational DE to give Willy and Haba some rest. Parker and Rose for Houston and Lawrence might help also. Just typing aloud.

  44. Haba showing well this early in his career is very helpful. It Jeffcoat is ever good enough to go, that's a good rotation on the ends. Hansen even more so. Lawson spelling off Jake when he comes back will help both of them enormously but I still wish we had someone better than Ricky Walker as our main NT. Would kill for a Nevis/Stove.
