Yeah I’ve heard him linked to that job as more of a down the road “retirement” gig.

That’s what I’ve always heard. The Bombers, or back to Guelph to be AD.

BC’s secondary is overrated. Obviously I want to see all the starting WR’s play, however Lawler/Woli/BOLO/Ambles/MacCrae as the worst case scenario isn’t that nerve-wracking tbh.

If the Bombers throw out of the heavy formation successfully early, BC won’t stand a chance. They play a lot of man, all Collaros needs is the time to burn it.

I hope they’re as cocky as they were last time they were on the way to IGF. BTW “smoke” is a stupid uniform colour

Well, I mean you’re just as knowledgeable as Farhan is, if not more so. He may still be the bigger homer though

Thanks, missed that as well

I kind of hope he does tbh. Losing out on Younger at DC for Hall’s last year(s) would be pretty rough. IMO Younger will be a co-ordinator next season one way or the other Has there been any legit talk of this anywhere? Or just because he hasn’t signed a new deal?

That couple years of 2 QB rosters really hampered the league. For 3 years the CFL basically produced Streveler and 50 incarnations of Nick Arbuckle.

I don’t really see that resemblance. Calvillo in 94-95 was rocket arming everything and had a terrible OL. You can see a lot more big play potential from Calvillo in his first couple of games (I believe this was #2) than we’ve seen from McCheese, who’s already in his second season starting and third overall. You put 1994 AC on the 2023 Stamps and they’re definitely above .500 imo.

Agree. There was a case for Nichols as MODP last year as well. DHB is the most overlooked position in football, and probably one of the hardest to play well at consistently. Usually when you see a shutdown DB like that, it’s a corner. To dominate 3 seasons in a row like that at half is bleu rare.

Score predictions? I’d go Ticats 31 Als 27 Lions 35 Stamps 19

Everything that goes wrong in the house is because Mike O’Shea is a ******* Canadian.

Right now at home.

I don’t think the Stamps will win. McCheese reminds me of Kerwin Bell minus the spike to the junk. When the chips are up he plays well enough, and can throw a nice quick hitter. I just don’t see him, even playing within his rotund self, doing enough to win a playoff game. I see it looking similar to last week with BC in the place of the Bombers.

Nichols not being an all-star is a joke. No slight, but there’s no universe in which TJ Lee is the better player

Oh for sure Betts will get votes from people who didn’t watch at the games. I sincerely believe Pickett is the more dominant player and more valuable to his team.

MOP- Brady (honestly I think they’ll give it to Kelly) DMOP- Pickett, Canadian- Brady OL- Tossup Rookie- Stiggers Coach- Dinwiddie 🤢

When was the last time the Bombers lost to a team 2 games straight? Sask in 2018? I hope they play the Argos in the Grey Cup.

The Argos are a very good football team, who haven’t had anything to play for in nearly 2 months. I wouldn’t say anything’s in the bag.

Anyone remember if we have any OL in the pipeline that went back to school?

Yeah agreed. The Canadian cupboard isn’t as stocked as it was 4-5 years ago. Can’t afford to draft fringe ST guys from low level USports programs anymore.

1. It’s kind of funny. I’m sure they’ll change the rule for next year. 2. All the rope. Zach isn’t coming out unless he’s hurt. 3. My brain says Brown and my heart says Strev.

Agreed for my own reasons. The late start will make the crowd rowdier though.

Willie Jefferson broke Evans in the 2019 cup. A bit of rust I guess. Hard to tell, but from yesterday he wouldn’t look out of place. Especially given a full camp with the 1’s.
