I honestly don't know who to pick in the Edmonton game. I think it could go either way

no team could afford a back up with that salary.

it's weird cause in 2019 (Pre injury) he led the league in deep ball completions....which is strange considering he couldn't throw the ball deep...?

they haven't apologized for the duke williams drop where he knocked himself out....so I'm not holding my breathe on this one.

not completely...I know that's the narrative around here...but it isn't quite true. He did run a lot of go routes. However...I think there was a real lack of trust between him and Matt Nichols. I specifically remember 1 game against MTL or maybe TO...it was an eastern team. Anyway Lucky was getting behind the defense regularly and Nichols just wouldn't put the ball up for him. I don't know why...but he was being sent deep and didn't see the ball. Lapo didn't let him run many routes on the route tree, I'll say that. He was basically a screen/go guy and that's about it. But even he will admit during the canceled season he really improved his route running skills. So I'm guessing while he was here he just wasn't as polished as he is now. Even in his break out year last year there was a lot of comments around the league about how much he's improved in his route running.

I must of had a stroke, I could have sworn he was on the Bombers in 2019 and didn't really play...? Who am I thinking of? Ohhhhh we did sign him in 2020 though... yeah my bad

And considering he posted a video bragging on SM with a hit that was clearly crown to ear hole...I'm not sure I'm buying what you're selling.

Yeah I'm not totally convinced they belong honestly...but I also don't know where they stand for career stats compared to others.

I'd be blown away if Wilson is able to get back on the field this year. And I hope Hardrick is able to go, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him sit this week out. Id be lying if I said I wasn't concerned this week. BC has a very potent offence. I feel like this week could be a "First to 30 wins" type of game. And I'm not convinced our O has the ability to keep pace with BC if our D doesn't hold them.

DT said something before the season started that immediately had me worried about Bailey. Prior to this year he only had a hand full of catches without using the waggle. But had 90% of his production came with him moving before the ball was snapped. Except that we didn't for half the year the last year.

I really want to see Agudosi get a shot.

I do not at all buy into the theory that the run game is suffering because there's no Harris. It wasn't this bad last year without him.

That does seem very odd.

As much as I like the guy....Bailey hasn't been producing at the level the Bombers need him to. I suspect that's because he is a SB and not a WR. I wasn't a fan of him moving out there and it doesn't seem to be working. If they're going to change something on O I'd like to see a legit WR start in his spot.

Lack of deep threat and vanilla run scheme...which is 100% predictable.

Wha? How can you compare the development of a OL to that of QB? Lol. Also the 2 new yanks won't dress for a game this year outside of injury.

Grant is regularly in the tops of the league for punt/kick returns.

Augustine has caught enough passes out of the back field for the Bombers. They know exactly who he is. FTR I'm saying he's completely fine as a pass catcher. Because Toronto... But also it probably isn't the worst idea to have a game on July 4th....im sure it'll add some American eyes

Alexander isn't coming back for weeks yet. Could be they feel comfortable with Rene as the 6th?

It really isn't. BC has game planned very well for Rourkes skill set. Quick passes getting the ball out fast and his accuracy has been solid. Once the D pinches up, their speed guys get deep. Add in a really solid run game and the OL simply doesn't have to do much. The O just has too many weapons, opposition defenses have to play neae perfect. The BC defense does enough to win as well. Rourke is 100% the real deal. He's beatable and shown some weakness tonight. But he faced some big time adversity today and overcame it. Right now, this is the BC/WPG division. Very much reminds me of the 2010 Bombers.

Andrew Harris

He is ridiculously fast. If he's figured out how to stay in the pocket and read a Defense, he will be good. I doubt that has happened this quickly though

I can't remember who told me this, so take it with that in mind. But apparently he does have a hard time with picking up blocking. It's not that he can't block, but that he just has a hard time deciding who he's supposed to block.

Both Hughes and Leonard missed games due to their actions. Hughes was directly from the team....not sure about leonard
