My proof is what he's done when give a full playbook and multiple NFL opportunities as a quarterback. Where is your proof other than "I don't like his throwing motion"

Proof? Because again if we're just going for the appeal to authority you believe Jake Thomas is the best DL on the team.? Streveler can pass, he's shown that ability and if he couldn't pass he wouldn't have spent as much time in the NFL as he did.

I agree, bring streveler back and give him the whole playbook.

but lawson hasn't been healthy all year and thomas gets the most snaps.... you can't explain that other than out and out favoritism.

No it's not apples to oranges... we have a **** ton of options for Canadians and don't need a defensive tackle. Using your appeal to authority the coaches are smarter than the rest of us so if Jake gets the most reps he must be the best defensive lineman.

This is a good point. Took them a while to get over the calgary hump because the stamps were good back then.

Bombers have had issues with eastern teams, but they pwned the west in their 8 game win streak.

Yeah a guy who gets hurt halfway into the season and won't be healthy when the season starts isn't going to generate big interest as the leagues next starter... go figure.

If they'd stopped selling tickets yesterday morning they could have had a "rider sell out". And still had more asses in the seats than the riders can muster.

Let me give my thoughts on why kolankowski plays centre instead of Eli.... kolankowski can only play centre, Eli can backup all the interior positions AND given how often our offense uses 6 OL, Eli can play that position where kolankowski can not. So in the world Mike O'Shea lives in where there are no backups, everyone is a starter, he doesn't view Eli as the backup offensive lineman, he sees him as the starting 6th OL and they just have offensive looks where that position doesn't play. Roster management has been an issue for Oshea since day 1 and anyone who doesn't see it is putting their head in the sand. Great coach, wouldn't want anyone else, but his roster management needs to improve.

So you also think Jake Thomas is our best dl?

Let them be arrogant. Let the media talk about how awesome the riders are. Meanwhile the Bombers will just go and do what they have done for the last 5 years....

Tait is a professional and knows when to talk about things and when he doesn't know enough and avoid talking about it. That's really the biggest key. Don't go writing about **** when you don't know enough to know what you don't know.

Yeah we didn't even hit Harris when they had to play Micah Johnson at OL. Just not something this team is any good at. It's not so much the turnover numbers that worry me with the.riders, it's what is our offense going to do to make sure they aren't just running forward into the pile for minimal gains. We've been entirely too predictable at times. Relying on an overmatched OL to just overpower the opponent...

A glorious day for the Bombers and therefore the world.

Noooooooooo

We won back to back on labour day and the banjo bowl. This riders team isn't some big bad scary threat. Harris will dink, then he will dunk and like last night will settle for field goals.

Some people mistake being connected for being knowledgeable. Hodge is a fantastic example. It's why with a doofus like suitor it's so frustrating... guy could put in a little shred of work to parlay his position and access into something insightful... instead we get the same bland **** regurgitated ad nauseum every single game.

I truly believe that collaros is playing his best ball of the season towards the end of it. Problem of course is there's been times the rest of the O has let him down. So let's hope they've got some good plans formulated and they are able to execute it. Keep collaros from getting hit like a pinata all day and he will pick that secondary apart.

Yeah but our run game is more than just rushing totals IMO. Brady catches passes is an extension of it. I agree the OL needs to pick it up, but more because of collaros. He needs some time to operate otherwise it won't matter what Brady does.

Their OL is dogshit though so they couldn't run even if they wanted to.

To be fair, adams got hurt against winnipeg right? And was awful in that game anyway so maybe the shine was wearing off... they did spend big money on Rourke and Betts and got sweet **** all return on that investment at any rate. Lions D is just putrid this year.

Bc has had one of the all time epic collapses of a season. They had complete control of the division and then went full suck and limped into 3rd place with a meel exit. Let the riders be cocky. They were cocky in 2019 and in 2021.

Wasn't that just the grossest thing ever?

2 west finals vs. The lions 2 Grey cup losses, 2 west finals vs. Riders 2 Grey cup wins.... just saying.
