Yeah Bennett showed off the cannon on that TD throw but Ross to me eyes looked to have a better grasp of where to go with the ball

Considering the respective lineups you have to be happy with what the Bombers did in that half.

You really think Glenn would be fazed by history? What history is that anyway? Having one of the best seasons of his career here? Possibly being a champion here if not for an injury? I think the fans who dislike Glenn harbour more ill will towards Glenn than Glenn harbours towards Winnipeg.

Or how about this, when a guy goes down holding his knee the first thing everyone does is panic cause it might be an ACL, The team didn't say ****, their message was always "we will get it checked out and see what the story is" They came out and said 4-6 weeks in short order, there's no playing here, just over zealous people wanting to write off Nichols for the year, and why not, makes for easier articles for people to write "who can the bombers trade for?" massive speculation and talking points. The CFL media by and large is only concerned with the low hanging fruit.

do you believe that because that's what he does for every single qb he has? That is the entire Lapo playbook, like his entire career that's what he's gone for.

Because that's been Lapos MO with this offense the entire time, not to mention that we now have some receivers who can go up and win some one on one battles, that gives qbs some hope too. I just think it's ridiculous to write things off at this point. The entire team looks very solid except for the qbs behind Nichols who are unproven. If a rookie can't manage the game with this team then this team isn't as good as we think it is.

So I totally understand that the Ontario Liberals were rotten to the core and needed to be booted out on their asses and that people don't trust the NDP, but Doug Ford? Seriously?

Why is it an isurance policy? Is it the "because I've heard of him!!!!" Mentality that shows up a lot? Vernon Adams has been around the block a bunch and can't seem to stick, that right there should tell me he's not the answer to anybodies qb situation.

Bunch of pessimists. The D is better simply because the front 7 looks rock solid, we already know this team can take the ball away, we know we have a great special teams unit. Why can't we win games if the qbs simply avoid turn overs? That shouldn't be hard. Sure they might not win a shoot out, but nothing saying they can't play it safe and chip away. Hell that's mostly what Nichols does for us anyway.

Guess he can always just subsidize those farmers more. Perhaps if they weren't artificially propping up the industry they wouldn't have an excess of product and nowhere to sell it.

Yeah but I didn't talk about left and right, I talked about Republicans. Left and right have lost all meaning in the states these days, it's team Republican vs. team Democrat.

Nah it's just that the republican party is a cult and they all have to rally to save face and convince their base to pay no attention to the facts, libs are evil!

Durant can **** off, he revealed his character and I want no part of that cancer in the locker room.

"Nichols wasn't going to play anyway" Yeah no one believes you coach. Both he and Nichols believe vets need to play in preseason.

Season doesn't really matter until the fall anyway, tread water through the summer and then rip the league a new ******* when Nichols gets back.

Are we sure about that? Would you join a team where Hervey is the GM and you're following Buono?

I would be totally fine with Willy, except that I fully expect he'll be the Montreal starter so not likely to be available.

Well that's the B squad for sure...

Bridge really is terrible. Let the Riders realize it not us.

If they have to rely on bridge they're done anyway. Honestly if Walters loses his brain and offers a first round pick Jones would be an idiot to not take it and run even if he does end up wasting it anyway.

No thanks to Burris.

Backup qbs get traded all the time. Remember when Nichols was the insurance in case Reilly got hurt? We got him for a 7th round draft pick or something. So yeah trades can happen, and they don't cost the ridiculous amount Rider fans think they do either. There was some truth in on of those tweets though, everyone has a price and with 2 first round picks next year the Bombers do have what it takes to over pay for a backup qb, but it has to be the right backup qb. The Riders can keep Bridge. I don't see the ability in him to run the offense we do. All we need is a guy who can manage a game and avoid mistakes. Bridge is a chucker who runs around and heaves up a prayer. Any qb can do that.

Rider fans thinking they're getting a haul for Bridge, LOL, I would pay less than we paid for Nichols, which I believe was a condition 7th round pick..... so future considerations? Let's face it, Bridge ain't the guy to lead a team. If we are going to go full ***** on a trade at least shoot for someone like Glenn, at least he's shown he can win as a starter at least a little bit in this league.

That is really what it comes down to, there is no one out there that's available that's really worth paying for. Guy we'd want I don't think are available, guys that are available you don't want. We have a strong OL, we have good receivers, good running backs, let's see what the rookie qbs can do, this is probably the best team to work one into that we've seen here in for ever.
