  1. I know we desperately need a new DC but I'm not ready to say LaPo should go yet. I think we give him 1 more year. Adams is a talent but he can't stay healthy. Although I'll say most WR's across the league have that problem. The way they use Dressler on those fly sweeps & catching the ball in the flats just leaves him wide open to hellacious hits so he's always one hit away from being injured it seems. Walters has to make receiver a priority & sign a number of FA's. As well as lber.
  2. LaPo likes to stretch the field horizontally & it seems 90% of his throws on 2nd down are always short of the first down marker relying on the receiver to make the YAC yards for a first down. I admit I don't like the system overall but it's been a godsend for Nichols as it suits him to a tee. In Year 3 of this offense with Nichols in 2018, it should be time to take it to another level by throwing more deep balls downfield. Outside of Adams, there's really no INt'l receivers on our rosters I really like. Dressler can't stay healthy & at 33 is it wise to bring him back? Denmark has absolutely disappeared the last 4 games. None of our qbs throw to him anymore & he's become a wasted talent. So, is it time to move on with him? The other Intl's? Don't really care as they don't do much at all. We need to restock & replace.
  3. Imagine what we would be if we had the WR's teams like BC, Sask & Edm have. Why can't we find guys like that? Other than Adams we don't have any other receivers who can stretch the field as a vertical threat. Teams know we can't throw deep & we are an easy team to defend. How do you defend against Burnham & Arceneaux or Zylstra & Walker? Reilly just puts the ball up deep & lets his receivers do the rest. We can't do that. We need to build a receiving corp like those teams. My question is why can't we find those type of big & physical receivers?
  4. You should run for Mayor. Come up with a campaign slogan that's catchy & I'll vote for you.
  5. Doesn't Durant have another season on his contract?
  6. How many Grey Cups have the Stamps won (being such a dominant team) the past decade? They've choked more than they've won so dominant regular seasons don't mean as much as you think.
  7. Take heart, it's about our craptastic backups & not our starter.
  8. The doctor in the second season of TNG played by Diana Mauldaur was a *****.
  9. I have no idea whyTSN does that. It's like they want to **** with the fans all the time. Like the ones that PVR games. Why would they not start the second game on one of the other TSN channels until the 1st game is over.
  10. Unlike J5V who seems to be saying there's little hope of the Bombers ever really improving, I'm still optimistic that a very good off season could propel this team to a championship in 2018. No reason why this team can't be better next season.
  11. I'm not calling for any coaches heads on offense because of the backup qbs. I am on defense.
  12. No clue what this means.
  13. Of course it's both. I'm saying we had problems before the rash of injuries started. BTW, I'm not disagreeing.
  14. No they've won nearly 25 games the past 2 seasons. They (GM & HC) shouldn't be fired. But the organization needs tweaks. Like replacing Ritchie Hall & changing the ratio as to where our 7 Canadian starters play. I'm concerned about our scouting as we just can't find impact Int'l receivers. That should be looked at as to whom is out there to scout the US.
  15. Okay, then give us your solution.
  16. Our problem isn't fueled by injuries. It's fueled by bad coaching & players who can't produce.
  17. Other teams do it. I don't know what the issue would be that you refer to? You need great scouting, drafting & targeting FA's in February.
  18. I was shocked at how bad LeFevour was. Then there's Davis. Why didn't we upgrade our qb situation? We let Glenn go. How could the Bombers braintrust think these 2 could actually play & win? Then, we make Hurl our starting MLB only to have him rush the line with no clue where the play is going because he can't see it. That's like asking a qb to close his eyes at the end of his drop for a second, reopen them & find the open receiver. Walters & O'Shea have to make better decisions than that.
  19. Import linebackers & import receivers are a must. We need to find better players. MOS has done okay. I don't think he needs another 5 years. If he takes his time firing & replacing Hall then I may have to rethink that. We should have a new DC in place by Xmas. Noel Thorpe is out there.
  20. If LaPo is stupid enough to leave for Montreal to work under Kavis Reed then he deserves the firing that will inevitably happen. We need a new DC. We need better linebackers. We need better receivers. We need to upgrade our backup qb positions. The secondary needs help at a couple of positions.
  21. Yeah, we seem to take 2steps forward then 3 steps back. Been that way since 1990. Everyone can see the problems on the Bombers yet the HC & GM ignore them. I'm not including injuries in this although it just makes things worse. The decision on setting the ratio then refusing to change when it wasn't working all season long is absolutely killing us defensively. We must be the only team who has phased out the MLB. No other CFL team plays their MLB the way we do.
  22. Dan LeFevour looked Jason Boltus Bad. When you're Jason Boltus Bad you're BAD!!!
  23. Can't fire Hall now. It will be done (if it's even done at all) in the off season. Don't hold your breath.
  24. Unless something drastic happens with this team, it looks like the season will be over in 2 weeks. Then the post mortum will begin. Pretty disappointing with the losses & injuries. I wonder what we did to piss off the football gods?
  25. We can't vertically challenge the field with either Davis or LeFevour. We look terrible on offense. #nightmare
