  1. Thing is, the Bombers gave them those things last week. Few missed field goals, uncharacteristic turnovers... and still curb stomped the Elks. I just have a hard time imagining that the bombers play that sloppy again.
  2. some terrible head coaching going on in the CFL this year.
  3. They sure can attack differently.... but in the end it won't matter much because the Bombers D will feast on a rookie qb.
  4. if we are going to miss kicks then we might as well just let Legs do it because at least he potentially has a future.
  5. Objectively subpar... well if that isn't polishing a turd. Objectively he has been God awful. If anyone played that badly you can be damned sure people would be wanting them cut. It's like a receiver who can't catch or a db who is never there in coverage.
  6. A guy who only managed to make short field goals in his 3 games and you want to give him another shot? At best he needs a lot of work to become a pro level kicker, but he's old and American so why waste any more time on the guy?
  7. They had to walk uphill both ways through 10 feet of snow to buy a bolt fabric to make one themselves.
  8. Psychological my ass, dude can't do anything but kick the ball straight.
  9. Refs instantly call that a TD but McGuire looks to cross the goal line vs. Edmonton and nothing.
  10. Just ask his girlfriend!
  11. I think the difference is that Mitchell is dealing with more mechanical injuries that are hampering his play. Collaros in Saskatchewan was two things: head injuries and a gameplan not suited to his style.
  12. That's actually insane... Man all the stats about this D and it still astounds me. I don't know that I have ever seen anything like what we are seeing this year. It doesn't even matter that the special teams are such a weakness.
  13. A stamps win over the riders really makes the west interesting and puts the heat squarely on the melon heads. After their "hot start" suddenly they are in a battle for a home playoff game. Would love to see it so for today only go stamps go. Kick the anthill!
  14. Loeffler was plenty physical, difference is that Alexander can cover too.
  15. Suitor of all people actually said it pretty well last night.... you pay full retail price for everything you get against the Bombers d. It's true. You gotta earn anything the hard way and the Bombers just never stop coming. They got enough depth they rotate guys through and keep everyone fresh.
  16. Probably thinking Harris was just missing passes all on his own. Fact is Harris was rushing every throw because he was terrified of the beating he would take if he held on longer. That is the way to beat the Bombers D, quick accurate throws. Problem is there are few qbs can be that accurate throwing quick. Maier was actually really good at it in the game against Calgary, not many others have managed to be.
  17. The fact that the Bombers can make so many errors and still walk away with a dominant victory should frighten the hell out of the rest of the CFL.
  18. There is no point wasting any more time on this doofus. If we're going to miss kicks might as well let Legs learn on the fly. At least he's got upside.
  19. can they keep him on the bench the rest of this year?
  20. he was totally in. got jobbed on that one.
  21. You know what the big difference between this team and the swaggerville team is? This team doesn't have Paul lapolice and his play to not lose mentality. The difference between this team and 2001 is that this team has greater depth and is much more humble.
  22. Fans aren't born, they're created. You can't just expect people to show up you have to get asses in the seats and make people care about the game by being entertained. I heard a bit from the new bc owner and he said something along the lines of I don't care how you do it, get kids into the stands. Pay to bus them in, buy them hotdogs, whatever. And he is right.
  23. 2001 had some other good teams. Montreal was still Montreal, Hamilton was good in that era. The west was what it was, a bunch of mediocre teams.... now though bunch of useless teams and only one actual good team, few mediocre teams that have better records than they should.
