The challenge is that your argument against Rice is the same argument that was against Hardrick... journeyman, never starting, etc... I see a larger drop off from Hardrick to Foketi than others are seeing - mostly in communication... so I just don't see much difference whether its a Landon Rice learning curve or Foketi. Loffler made sense last year when the whole team was making up for Hurl's lack of talent... AND you had Heath jumping routes - a legit experienced Boundary HB... we don't have that - we have good HBs but not CFL vets who can change a game I thought Bighill would be the difference maker in Hall's system - a la Mo Lloyd - but something is still missing... either need vet HBs or an experienced Safety... Morgan was terrible when he played, Conteh is a complete unknown - both will make rookie mistakes... My point is that Safety 'should' be the easiest position to play but Hall's hybrid mix of zone and man requires a guy with real CFL instincts

No more outlandish than suggesting Brendan Morgan or a raw rookie like Conteh will come in and make a difference in a Richie Hall D...

Cassius Vaughn out for the season... next man up

Its really inexplicable that Denmark is still sitting at home. He's not a giant killer but he'd give us 3-4 very good games and be a red zone threat... already has chemistry with Nichols... Duron Carter would have been a disaster for this team - real shame Miles Whyte is not here to step in... worried Osh will trot out Lankford as our main threat yet again next week... or an injured Dressler.

Signing Landon Rice and plugging him in at RT would help... Still think Loffler would be better off at WIL backing up or rotating with JSK

That was actually sarcasm...

Dickenson/BLM ALWAYS abuse the flats against Richie Hall and its always Leggett that falls on his sword... There was ZERO safety help over the top - Loffler Look at the one play that Fenner was in at SAM... 68 yards... Hall just has no answer.

This is over the top... Bombers were toe to toe with the best in the league for 80-90% of that game... If Foketi stays onside... we're talking about this season in a totally different way - Bombers would have either won or lost by a few points...

Well yes... maybe perfect is too strong but it was a good pass - just over defenders and right in Darvin's hands... obviously over the shoulder would have been better but its still at absolutely catchable ball I'm not being an apologist for Nichols - but I'm not going to lay the whole game on him... Edit: Watched it again... yeah its not a perfect pass - Stamp got his hand in there... can't totally blame Adams

Re-watching the second half... if Darvin Adams squeezes that pass its a different game Bombers are still matching up with Calgary really well - five mins left in the third... Nichols avoids a sack and then gets hit as he's throwing... this one and the next our OL - especially Foketi - gets slapped around... Calgary pinned deep Then its the huge play to Jordan - Leggett beat - then the TD to Michel - Randle beat... but there is NO safety help over the top - Loffler playing as a glorified LB again... Winnipeg responds with a decent drive - but Calgary D playing really well... probably should have called a late hit on Junior Turner... Calgary pinned deep... then big play by Michel - DBs with a TWENTY YARD CUSHION... wtf Bombers actually stop the Stamps but refs give them a ridiculously favourable spot... Leggett with a huge knockdown - but its a 12 play drive - D on the field for a long time Twist on Foketi and Chungh... Nichols sacked... Collapse ensues. BLM to Jorden in QUADRUPLE COVERAGE... I didn't even know that existed... Michel drops a TD - Alexander in chase... no safety help Winnipeg OL getting destroyed... 2:30 left and Bombers are still in it... offence is moving - Thompkins needs to make a hard cut and move upfield not just step out Foketi DESTROYS our shot at a TD Osh calls a squib kick instead of onside - stupid gimmick plays again... Fenner in for Leggett - he can't jam Jorden... Loffler overruns the play... game over. BRAIN DEAD pass by Nichols... he had guys open - NO HUDDLE IS NOT WORKING ANYMORE...

Collaros is brutal even if he is progressing... not even Richie Hall will fix that Turnovers will win this game - need Nichols and Streveler just to 'manage' the game again

You're definitely in a down mood since the Ottawa loss...

Biggest games of the year... couldn't be bigger for both teams right now... or bigger for this regime Bombers need both of these games imo - tall order - I want to see Nichols and Streveler rotating as a 1A/1B... that was working in the first half and then Lapo abandoned it - Bring back the two back sets!!! If Jones gets on a roll, Nichols confidence will absolutely be crushed... need a big first Q from the O - Let Bighill play MLB already... Hall's blitz D is just too predictable - luckily Sask's O sucks - Is Ernest Jackson a trade option for the bombers? Als likely need to free up cap space ... not sure who else would be an option - receiving core is not scaring anyone - Any other ideas?

That must be a weird space to be in... playing for a coach who just 'kind of' fired himself as GM and has now said he's just coaching one last season for fun... then by the halfway point of the season, he says all his players suck ha

Wow Wally really through his guys under the bus...

Lions have checked out... Montreal and BC are out of the playoffs already. Just a matter of who's less bad now... Toronto, Winnipeg, Sask, Hamilton...

OMFG I was just kidding... why would you not take the points

GO FOR IT WALLY!!!! Be adventurous!!!

Hey I'm enjoying this game.... but Lulay and Collaros suck.

I'm a bit confused... Lulay and Collaros are both horrible Receivers are brutal - DBs are not much better Herdman v. Hurl No rushing games but also no sacks... Its a 'fun game' to watch though...

Worst DB crew in the league and Collaros throws a pick at the worst time This is not a pretty game

Nick Marshall at QB... I have a hard time hating Jones over that

BC has some bad DBs... Evans could have kept running

Cam Judge looking better and better... would have loved to see that guy in blue and gold

Fenner got reps tonight and got burnt in a major way - he was chase on the last TD I believe
