No eye rolls here. If it was the Bombers I’d be laughing and saying “well, they could have stopped it instead of crying about it”. I’ve always felt that way about running up the score. Fair game. If the other team doesn’t like it, do something to stop it.

The knock on the Als' Grey Cup victory was that it was a fluke and I think they wanted to make the point that they were a much better team than they were being given credit for. Given how the Bombers rolled over last night, it is still an open question.

Forget the kickers. Clearly, it was the chipped ball that was responsible for Collaros’ horseshit passing numbers.

If a team has given up then they deserve to be embarrassed by a flea flicker scored by perhaps the most obnoxious player on the field. No sympathy from me.

Let's put it this way: if they cared at all they'd use it. Oshea has his old boys club though and never shall that be broken. If he doesn't lose the attachment to aging guys it'll cost him. I know they did the job for him in the past but 2019 is a long time ago now.

Haha it's funny, after a Bomber loss I usually need to lay a 52-7 drubbing on the AI in Madden before I feel better

The one thing when brown played last year instead of Zach was it was noticeable he was using everyone. Zach does tend to key into certain guys.

We need to start drafting and developing young Canadian receivers like Hamilton has done with Bolo...

No they were trying to leave no doubt and hit the killing blow. Isn't that something you complain Lapo wouldn't do? That's exactly what they should have done from a trying to win perspective

Mike being a troll, same as it ever was

Are you just speculating or do you know something about his current lifestyle?

When was his last really good game? Last years Banjo Bowl? Do I think he’s going to play like that every week? No. Are his bad habits as a passer becoming more prevalent? Absolutely. The pattern of regression is there going back to last year. Poor on the road mostly, average at best in the playoffs. Staring down receivers. Throwing dumb picks. Fumbling. Not progressing through his reads. Playing huck it chuck it football and having to get bailed out by receivers all the time.

Not bloody likely. #Forthew

Honestly what I’m worried about most is that he’s going to do something stupid while he’s injured. If he stays out of trouble, he’ll be back for the games that matter

Smith is still here

I’m better now, back in the day I couldn’t even play a game of Madden for days after the Bombers lost.

BOLO looks good out there.

If they have a chance, they need to sign Worthy/Alford regardless of Chris Smith, they could always sign and PR him when healthy. They need a real returner for next game. I’ve said this before but Nick Moore was a great signing. Even though he didn’t do all that much, it was the big FA signing Walters needed at the time to show that the club wasn’t cheaping out anymore. First top-level FA to be willing to come here since god knows when before that. Christ, maybe Dunnigan. It opened the floodgates for ‘16 when they brought in Harris, Dressler ect. That all had to start somewhere.

I think it would pay future dividends to stick with the current crop of receivers in house, use the first half of the season to identify the best and get him up to speed by the time Lawler returns. Heard he did somewhere, not convinced he'd ever been in the same league as a returner like Worthy, the really good ones don't grow on trees.

The guy can still sub for any American. Could "start" Bridges and designate Alexander behind Ford/Hallett/Gauthier. He can sub for any of those guys for 22 snaps in the game and sub for Bridges (or any other American) the entire game if you want. The depth charts don't really matter just for those designated players. Teams don't have to play the first snap with the 12 guys on O or D on that chart as a "starter." Tim White is one for Hamilton. Their biggest star.

amazing concept...and we refuse to use it cause..........???..??.'?????

Honestly I kinda get it. They were putting the exclamation point on their ship and staking a claim to being the premiered team in the league.

After that showing the Bombers deserve to be looking up at everyone. Good thing it's an 18 game season.

#JustWinTheNextGamePlease

watching Leake and Alford... am jealous and more annoyed in our efforts to get a returner

Who's been to Santiago Chile twice in one year?!?

I'd like to see a double blind study. Every CFL FG kicker kicks 20 balls, 10 with and 10 without a chip. No one knows which are which. Then we would find out if it's all in the kickers head or if the chips actually make a difference.

I doubt it. Collaros was just off on damned near everything.

We had no returner last time when Grant was injured. We learned a whole lot of nothing from that. We've done the exact same thing except... Grant ain't coming back. Why can't we sign a free agent returner. I don't care about the salary cap. There's not a couple of pieces of deadwood on the roster we could get rid of?? Looked like there was plenty to me on Thursday just filling space, including some coaches.

I don't believe he's regressing. One game. talk to me after the Banjo Bowl. If he is still struggling at that time then okay, I'll buy in but not yet. The sky is not falling. If that play bothered anyone, c'mon.... That play didn't bother me. The rest of the game did though as we were so inept.

It seems there is less controversy in a missed call, (except Zach getting whacked in the head) than there is for a shitty at best marginal call. Watching the NFL seems like way more tolerance for marginal actions than shown by some winded Fat Pig CFL official.

Lucky looked like he lost his speed last season. I’d pass.

Sad to see O'Leary-Orange go elsewhere, played a minor role with us but I wish him all the best unless he plays us - then I hope he fumbles 6 times.

Could easily use it on Jefferson with the American DL we have dressed. Designate him and for 22 snaps when he's out there you can have an all-American D.

Spotter doing a great job when the guy in distress runs another play and then gets pulled.

Hall of shame more like it

I still can’t believe they put Suitor in the hall of fame.

Dave Dickenson thinks he's the last Canadian to coach a Grey Cup winner. Hey Dave, MOS says hello. TSN also didn't realize. Suits and co are hacks.

Zack last night made Jason Boltus look good...

lol. Chip shot. Yeah.

Will open some salary. I'd be signing Worthy to do our returning. I don't know who we'd want to bring in as an actual receiver that would be worth it.

I sometimes wish they’d used that money elsewhere quite honestly. Hindsight being 20/20, I was thrilled when they brought him back. Between the suspension and now on the 6-game he hasn’t really been worth it.

Starting today, teams have the choice of using the chipped or unchipped balls. Nice correction but a day too late.

Honestly better than something with a joint or collarbone. He'll be back by Labour Day.

Nothing like a swift kick in the balls to punctuate an abysmal outing

Lawler arm fracture they say. 6 gamed likely. Oh I agree. That’s why I said guess wait for some other games first. Agreed. There is no mercy rule in the pros. I’m starting to feel this could be the year it all goes wrong for the blue.

Awe and Mills are listed as designated nationalized Americans. Extremely smart usage of that rule as those two are going to see much the same game time snap count they normally would but in each instance can replace a lesser talented Canadian and therefore allow a stronger situational lineup where needed.

The pathetic part is if the O showed up at all we prob would have won. At one point fajardo had more pass attempts than Zach had yards thrown. It’s concerning when Cody Faj outplays Zach and he has now the last 2 games.

If you are going to lose it's better to completely crap your pants because there's nowhere to hide and no excuses. You got beaten and embarrassed, need to be better top down

To be fair we didn’t really start ten. The lineup said we were going to, but we didn’t. Jake Thomas played far too much though
