Around The League Regular Season Discussion
Arnold_Palmer replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Good move for the Saskatchewan Rough Riders. This makes them a better team. Adding a game breaking NI insures they can go with four imports at the reciever position. -
Every team is making moves. Would be extremely disappointed if we didn't bring in one of Gurley,Elliot, or Hazelton. At 8-6 this is the home stretch. While every team is getting better we can't stand pat.

Willy helping Winnipeg secure the number one overall draft pick.

I think it also takes a lot of pressure off the offense knowing that anything within 50 yards are essentially an automatic 3 points. Not as many throws into double coverage trying to generate points.

Medlock has been fantastic. I don't think some people realize how important the kicking game truly is. He's been money on field goals, and his directional punting is impressive. I knew from the moment he was signed he was worth every penny.
-
No doubt. i don't think anyone wants to play Winnipeg, but gotta give credit to Calgary. They're a damn good football team.

Calgary is in a league of their own this season. Clear cut grey cup favourites. But the road will be through Calgary to make it to the grey cup so might as well show that they can beat them this week.

Toronto @ Winnipeg Depth Chart
Arnold_Palmer replied to voodoochylde's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I honestly believe there's no such thing as too much depth. Injuries are a big part of football. You can never account for what may happen. Having depth in our secondary is absolutely crucial down the stretch. -
Toronto @ Winnipeg Depth Chart
Arnold_Palmer replied to voodoochylde's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
We CANT possibly win seven in a row can we I'll be there tomorrow for the first time all season. Work has been hectic, but hopefully i'll get to see the Bomber Defense beat the snot out of Dan Lefevour. -
Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn
Arnold_Palmer replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Kevin Glenn is STILL in this league because he has the quickest release in the CFL. He avoids a lot of contact. -
Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn
Arnold_Palmer replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I'm not sure its confidence. I think its psychological. Hearing foot steps when they aren't there. There was a lot of plays earlier this season where willy 1) Rushed the throw before the pressure 2) didn't properly plant his feet on the deep throw due to "pressure" (remember how effective he was in 2014 on the deep throw) 3) Not properly stepping into the pocket on passing attempts to buy more time -
Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn

We'll see. I certainly like Drew Willy. I hope he has a successful career. His biggest problem in Winnipeg was mentally. He was hearing foot steps when they weren't there. He didn't have this problem in 2014, you saw it when he came back from injury in 2015. I'm wondering if this something you can ever come back from. Pocket awareness is a big part of the QB play, hopefully Toronto can protect Drew enough so that he can get over that but it was an alarming sight to see in Winnipeg this year. -

Wel lets not get carried away now Athough tough to be a functional team when there's no respect for your starting QB Whether its on the team or on him. -
Harris is an impossible guy to replace. So much of the offense revolves around him. However i'm hoping our play calling is more aggressive against the Argonauts. Typically you use the run to open up the passing game, but i'm hoping we can use the pass to open up the run game and who ever is playing running back. Throw the ball down the field more so that those linebackers are backing off from the line.

Duron Carters Wonderlic score was 39. The average score for a professional WR is 17. Sure he's had his issues in Montreal, but he's the big, physical receiver. It's not like a talented head case hasn't rejuvenated his career before (randy moss) -

Do we know he's a locker room cancer? Randle is great no doubt, but he's had injury issues, and i'm confident in our young secondary. -

One of the most talented players in the league. Love the way he plays on the field. I'm sure hes tired of the circus in Montreal. -

Carter for Randle straight up. -
Lawless says there is trade market for Willy
Arnold_Palmer replied to Mike's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You CANT compare Bishop to Nichols. Yes Toronto had a great defense in 2007 but we all know Bishop had all the tools but couldn't read a defense. He barely completed 50 percent of his throws in his entire career, and had more INTS then Touchdowns, where Nichols has a quick release, he has a high completion percentage and he doesn't turn over the ball. Basically Toronto won on good defense, and letting Bishop occasionally connect by airing it out. Personally I feel like our team is now set up in a good position to win today, but set up even better in the future with a 1st and 3rd round draft pick, and a talented DB under contract. -

Arnold_Palmer replied to do or die's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You guys are both wrong. Noeller- You're allowed to live in another city, and still tolerate another football team. Even if its the Stamps (puke) that doesn't make you any less of a fan. Iso- Not knowing who the starting QB from 1942 ALSO doesn't make you less of a fan Grow up guys. I thought only Rider fans had this superiority "super fan" attutide. -
Snapshot mid-season review of all CFL teams
Arnold_Palmer replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I HATE comments like this because in the progression of a season teams change, teams bond, we had a different starting QB, we've had guys step up in our line up that didn't even play last time we faced Calgary. In fact we haven't lost a single game since we played Calgary last. -
I fully expect the bombers to come out motivated. Knowing they didn't play very well and capitalize on their chances. I think they come out fired up at home in the banjo bowl and pull out a big win. I don't think Winnipeg plays on auto pilot this weekend.

sigh* the riders forum. One poster seems to think they'll run the table and finish 9-9. Another poster thinks they'll beat us by two touchdowns in Winnipeg. 6 wins since September 2014 and still no humility. -

Why would they be? The Riders are the envy of the entire football league, led by the great Coach Jones!
