I'm all in favour of pushing the season up and ending the year 3 weeks earlier. It can only help improve the attendances later in the year.

How do you not cut Corny before the game ends?
-
Will Edmonton get shut out yet again by BC? Has any team had 2 shut out losses in the CFL ever?
-
Another game changing penalty Edmonton takes.
-
Elks taking bad penalties and receivers dropping catchable balls, so a typical week for them.
-
He's filling in until the real heir apparent returns
-
As much as I hate the Riders, Ottawa, Edmonton and Hamilton are all much worse. Fine can at least throw a spiral and more then 5 yards.
-
Normally I would think it would be a free spot on the bingo card.. but the fact that we lost to Crum who can't even make a 10 yard pass....
-
Lol the Riders guy bumps into the returner and just falls down, that was poor effort on tackling more so then a great return.

Week Eight: BLM Returns to Battle the Crumback

Significantly better off without him, imagine if Ottawa had any decent QB at the helm... 5 ints should of generated 20 points against them. -
Week Eight: BLM Returns to Battle the Crumback
Brandon replied to rebusrankin's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Just watched the game on PVR, is BLM more shot then Khari's last days? I can't imagine him being able to play in wind or cold weather, those floaters he was tossing were so slow and soft. He had a tonne of time and protection from his o-line and at this point he can only float balls to wide open receivers. Crum is awful and is unable to look at a 2nd read, he had guys wide open down below and would just stand for several steamboats and then default to his run. The few times he did make attempts at throws his receivers were super lazy (Acklin/Evans). I can't believe 5 ints and they only managed 6 points off them? Why did Khari hand the ball off to Litre on 2nd down when Williams is averaging 6.6 yards and the middle was loaded up? Why wouldn't they run with Williams along the outside? Why didn't they run more earlier in the game when Crum clearly was unable to make any passes? Khari called a bad game. Can both teams be giving an L after that game? Awful performance. Also why did Milt say all the pressure was on BC against Edmonton during the rain delay banter? Milt really comes off as an idiot on the panel and makes Sanchez look like a genius for stating the obvious. How did we lose against this Ottawa team? -

It would be nice to see a breakdown of everyones contract in the league because what they paid him doesn't seem like its very far off from what most teams are paying veteran above average talents. -
Lol it's the same guy from the original!

Why would Edmonton trade away one of the few impact players that they have? -

Prukop is far more experienced and outside of the Grey Cup he showed well when he had last played with us. We don't need a "project' QB, we already have Dru Brown. Plus Strev will be back in 2 years once Zach decides to retire and become our QB coach. -
He's a navy seal god damnit!!! Something something about him having grit and playing full back.... That's my best effort to justify the guy =\

I'm not sure how me watching several games this year in which Houston is beat and chasing down his man for a huge gain or TD for the opposing team is me having no idea on what I'm watching. I am not seeing Nichols doing this, if this is so common place then why are the other guys not having these same kind of plays on a more frequent basis. It is your opinion that the guy is a top 2 - 3 player and an all star... it is reality (not an opinion) that he is getting beat one to two times a game which isn't helping our cause. Just because he may see a few less targets doesn't negate the fact that he is making mistakes and has much more room to improve his overall game so that one day he "may" become an elite player.

Sorry if I prefer players not getting absolutely burned and torched one or two times per game. I said the exact same thing last year with Rose at around the same time of the season. I'm not sure if you were one of the people on here giving him excuse after excuse, but eventually the thick headed folks could admit the guy was a shell of his former self and was a liability on the field. At least Rose had the excuse of being injured, Houston does not. Hopefully he can develop into a solid player but at this point he's way hot and cold and laughable to suggest he's top 2 - 3 corner in the CFL. A top 2 - 3 CB doesn't get burned by Corny, Crum, Fajardo.... Prime example of a guy with fancy stats that doesn't tell the whole story.

Brady for showing intensity in the 4th Daramy-Swaray Zach HH Walker
-
I just watched the game on the PVR, those first 3 quarters were ugly. Kramdi looks like Bambi on ice, seriously what a liability on the field he was spinning in circles and biting on everything. Jeffcoat + Willie whiffing on lots of tackles that made a huge difference in the first half. Walker had a solid all around game he's under rated. Mike will be happy that DeMario Houston scored a freebie interception... all while being the only guy who was completely burned on the field for a massive 80 yard TD. It was nice seeing some fire or energy and some seriousness from the guys in the 4th quarter, completely different body language and maybe it was Brady and his intensity rubbing off on the others? Lawler is friggin awesome, now if Schoen can get off his cold streak then what a 1 - 2 punch. We need to bring in more guys like Daramy-Swaray, that guy doesn't whiff and is consistent. TBD on what happens going forward.... I'm glad they ended on a positive note but that first half was ugly as can be. Edmonton really wasn't doing anything special at all and we kept giving them chance after chance. This BC game will be very interesting (or possibly ugly) to watch. I hope they wake up during the break. Edit: Forgot about 2 more complaints... Pru-Crap on his sneaks Pierce on his play calling for the first 3 quarters... very bland and predictable.

Not good at all, jeeze the Redblacks are seemingly cursed. The league needs the team and star players like him. -
I don't think the issue is one or two players needed to be recruited. The issue from what I saw is the whole team as a collective just looked like they checked out after building a decent lead and had ZERO urgency or killer instinct. Whatever the opposite of clutch is..... that is what everyone was doing against the Red Blacks. I expect receivers to make catchable catches, running backs to hold onto the ball tighter when up by a few scores and after already gaining a tonne of yards well past the first down marker, dlinemen being able to wrap up and make a tackle, dbs not watching from a distance as a mediocre qb and receiver make a pass and catch, etc....

Have any local sports media asked O'Shea about the roster choices? I'm guessing radio no longer has a coach's show or anything for someone to ask?

But he's a former navy seal! He has grit! /sarcasm
