No kidding. Just imagine what would happen if Jake Thomas went down.

You are completely wrong. Look at where the Riders points came from in both games in Winnipeg. Offence didn't put up enough points in the first game and gave up 2 direct TDs, special teams did the same yesterday. If the O and ST don't hand the Riders points, both games in Winnipeg are easy Bomber wins even with 200 rushing yards against.

100 yard games by individual backs. They've been alternating 2 and 3 backs in almost every game this season.

Running or passing, doesn't really matter, if a team is consistently making first downs the clock runs at the same rate outside of the last 3 minutes of each half.

Kuale makes almost zero positive plays in his position, and continually costs the team with undisciplined play, not just penalties either. He's pretty much as bad as it gets even before he hands the other team 60 free yards.

2 home games vs the Riders, Bomber defense gave up 17 TOTAL points that weren't off turnovers. The rest, 36 points, came from special teams and turnovers. Defense did more than enough for the Bombers to win both games in Winnipeg against Saskatchewan. The games in Winnipeg were handed to the Riders.

I'd go one size bigger unless you want it to be skin tight. The newer jerseys are fitted, the older ones were oversized.

Only if Hall and the police are exaggerating. http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865610067/EX-BYU-quarterback-Max-Hall-arrested-in-shoplifting-drug-case.html

Coehoorn and Chambers...Etienne and Pencer. Thanks Joe!

Celebrating a sack when down 2 TD's where the QB basically laid on the turf by himself anyways.....yep, pretty confident Edmonton will be well under .500 in this half of the season.

It's a sad thought, but Romby Bryant isn't even the worst import receiver on our roster. Hard to believe that a 6'5 guy can go missing on a football field. I expect receiver to be one of the main areas we see guys added when the PR expands, even with a few extra imports already around. We don't really have that big target type, and Kelly sure as hell doesn't play like one even if he should be one.

It's too bad Stephan isn't a Canadian citizen. He'd make a great senator.

Why not? There are at least 4 sections that are consistently empty in each corner, probably more. That means there are few season ticket holders in those sections if any. They could easily give dozens of blocks of tickets to an interested partner (most likely a grocery store or restaurant) to sell for cheap. No, simply meant as to the difference in the two fields. It was easier to isolate seats in the north end zone or south end zone (when they had it) and price them accordingly at the old field. It was definitely harder to move to better seats. Of course, now, they could just price them differently according what the lousy selling seats are and they well should. To me, any seat that is sold, even at a bargain price, is a future seat sold in a better seating configuration. It's the big picture and they should get on that. IMO it's way harder to move in the new stadium. Almost all of the good seats are season tickets, basically all of the tickets between the goal-lines in the lower bowl and bottom half of the upper bowl. They'd be much better off if they look at the trends and realize that certain sections just do not sell unless the games are complete sellouts, and those will be rare at 33000. Put butts in those seats for $15 a pop, have those people match that investment on concessions and you've got found money basically, doesn't cost more to have more people in the stadium because it is staffed for 33000.

All these points are super important for the Bombers to continue building the underlying base for future years. It's not possible to have a Salisbury section with the new stadium configuration but maybe colour coded sections to highlight support would help. And now would be a great time to have that Superstore down the road get more heavily involved with tickets in their own SuperSection. Good on Co-Op for a unique approach in their support for the club. Why not? There are at least 4 sections that are consistently empty in each corner, probably more. That means there are few season ticket holders in those sections if any. They could easily give dozens of blocks of tickets to an interested partner (most likely a grocery store or restaurant) to sell for cheap.

Considering we'll have at least two invisible men as imports at receiver this week, we should be able to find a way to get a guy like Sears on the roster.

His lady wants to go to Boston Pizza and he wants to go to Earl's. But he can order anything he wants at BP, that's what he controls, and he's going to control it.

Burke uses conventional players and gap control, and his defences are traditionally awful against the run. They were here too other than a handful of games when the D basically completely shutdown the opposing team. It's not hard to run the ball, almost everyone is defending the pass and sacrificing run defense. If we gave the ball to a good running back we'd be laughing too.

Maybe he got drug tested.

Use the Golds from the mid-2000's as the road jerseys.

The uniforms are minuscule in the big picture. I spend far too much time with high school kids, many of them CFL fans, and they flat out laugh at the feeble "marketing" ploy that the 3rd jerseys this season are. It's transparent and amateurish. It could be argued that the negative reaction to most of the uniforms is far worse than any positive reaction for uniforms could have been in terms of the overall product. Two things the CFL needs to do is to make their product accessible, and make the overall game of football accessible. I've found the CFL to be pretty inconsistent in their efforts to do both over the years. At some times, the league and teams give a ton of support to youth football, other times they give very little. Lately it seems that they are more interested in starting flag football leagues than getting kids playing the real sport. In terms of making the actual CFL games accessible for young fans, the Bombers would be smart to bring back the Safeway style cheap seats using the several thousand seats in the endzones that never sell. Can't speak to what other teams are doing in that regard.

Grigsby better hope all the good backs are injured in the 2nd half of this season too.

Oh ease up surgeon general.. Its a horrible drug but its no meth,heroin, krocodile, oxy or even mdma.. The fact he is injecting it tho tells me he has an addictive personality and probably stuggles mightily with addictive substances.. Hopefully he gets the help he deserves.. ... let's not even try to rationalize cocaine or crack use here. They're no mary jane, that's for damn sure. Not rationizing it at all but the fact remains its not anywhere near as bad as the others I mentioned.. Also, its not as taboo as one would think... Lotta people have tried it or use it.. Injecting anything is pretty much the most dangerous drug to do, particularly street drugs. Any impurities and you're dead. Injecting cocaine is on par with injecting heroin, most people who do one will do the other, and sometimes both, which is the quickest way to die.

There's no reason to put 8 or 9 in the box unless the Riders do, and when they did the Bombers had the guys responsible for the eligibles who stayed in tight for the Riders to block in the box. Need to tackle better. If you just put 9 guys in the box, Durant is going to take a quick drop and put a ball up in the air for a wide-open guy to snag for a big play.

Bryant certainly not the long-term answer to our receiving problem but he's the best journeyman we have right now and still might be capable of delivering a solid outing if Willy drills the ball into his facemask. Moore seemed to get open a lot but his ball-handling abilities are highly suspect. Romby also drops the odd one when he tracks back after gaining 1st down yardage and tries to turn an 11 yd gain into an 8 yd gain. At least Watson, Guardino, Denmark, etc. seem to know how to fall forward and maximize gains. Romby and Moore (particularly Romby) have developed nasty habits of thinking their 4.8 speed legs can out run 4.6 and 4.7 guys with the advantage of closing angles! Moore has like 2 fumbles all season, 1 we recovered, Why no mention of all the big catches he's made? 4 fumbles. How many do the rest of our receivers have combined? It's a problem that's becoming a trend.
