Mr. Perfect

If this is how brass really felt, Hall never stood a chance - Not that that's a bad thing... Jim Toth ‏@JimTothSports 33s As per @BobIrvingCJOB #Bombers QB Brian Brohm moved up the depth chart to #2 in training camp & brass feel he is a Danny Mac clone. #CFL

Have to say I find some of the posts in this thread rather amusing. No surprises in the cuts I don't think. Those who performed are on the team, those who didn't are either making flight plans or will be making peanuts on the PR. The team has a long way to go but overall we're significantly ahead of where we were last season.

If he's on the practice roster (and Browning will be of course) it pretty much is training camp for him. He learns the playbook at his own pace and gets minimal reps as a new QB would regardless of timing.

No kidding. Kid's got wheels, and we liked that about Jyles too, didn't we? Wheels and a pretty good arm according to the highlight pack. All you need according some geniuses.

Hopefully he does better than our last quarterback from Louisiana-Munroe...

I really wish there was more video of that season. A home game against Hamilton we won 63-31 or something to that effect really stands out. The offence was clicking and we got a few breaks to. I remember one particular play we had fumbled the ball and a bunch of Hamilton defenders were booting it around and trying to pick up the ball and run for what must have been 25 yards or so then Jamie Stoddard comes out of nowhere to jump and fall on the ball. Great season.

I don't see the comparison to Chad Plummer at all. Plummer was as useless as they come. Kelly (despite his bad drop on a short curl last week) will catch the ball more often than not, is effective running deep crossers as well as the fly patterns and creating mismatches in the endzone. He fills a nice role on this team as a fourth or fifth look for the QB.

Thanks for the input folks. So I take it in terms of the atmosphere of the fans around you, it's all the same pretty much with the exception of the family zone?

Hey all, I'll be taking in my first games at IGF over the coming weeks as I'll be in Winnipeg for holidays. I didn't get the chance to attend any games last year so I'm not sure how the seating has changed compared to Canad Inns. I know section S sadly doesn't exist anymore - Are there any comparable sections in the new stadium, or places my friends and I can sit and not get awkward looks if we decide to stand up and cheer? Thanks in advance.

I would really hope that Chevy could do better than an opposing team's fourth line centre to fulfill our needs, even if said team did win the Stanley Cup.

IE. O'Shea was not happy with Halls int at the end. I finally got around to watching the game and yikes that was a poor decision to make. Eat the sack there and they might win the game. QFT. Stating the obvious but an extra three points would have been huge.

O'Shea just said on his show that Ford is at least a couple of weeks away and won't play in the opener, so yes Cotton will definitely be on the team, and likely starting week 1.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 44s O'Shea is optimistic LB Graig Newman could return from dislocated and fractured ankle this season. Dr. Peter MacDonald in surgery today.

Ed Tait ‏@WFPEdTait 32s Sources say the #Bombers are not interested in RB Jerome Messam, the CFL's top Canadian in 2011. Going import at the position. #bn

I noticed that SSK lost Durant and Willy... Is that normal for so much turnover on a Grey Cup team? Durant is still on the team. They lost Kory Sheets and Weston Dressler.

Great to have you as part of the board. I was a big Drew Willy fan going back to last season. He started a game last year that sold me on his skills. Very happy to have him on the team this year and watching him grow even more as a passer.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 4m Local product Brett Cameron has been released by the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Definite upgrade over Volny.

Good enough to jump Hall for #2 IMO. Hall looks exactly the same to me as he did last year. Brohm is very raw still but there is something you can work with there as a coaching staff. I can't say the same for Hall. You know what you have in him.

Brohm was very good tonight. Hall might want to start getting his resume together.

At the end of the day people need to remember this team won three games last year. There is a lot of work to be done and while overall we are better (and will continue to get better) there are still going to be a few more ugly nights along the way.

Collaros struggles against the rush. Hamilton's offensive line isn't even close in quality to Toronto. We'll be just fine with Willy. We may not be good this year, but he won't be the reason why.

Unfortunately not. Your best bet is tapping into their radio broadcast.

For the most part (Nick Moore's tweets from last week) I love how our players have handled it. If they're unhappy with the CBA, and I'm sure they are, then handle it they way it should be handled - internally. None of this crap like you're seeing out of Calgary and Saskatchewan.
