The bombers actually played great all things considered. With a healthy Kevin Glenn the Bombers win that game comfortably.

Agreed. Them Being one point favourites at home is hardly bulletin board material. If playing for the season series and essentially wrapping up first place in the West isn’t motivation enough I think we have bigger issues.

Ok Mike you’re being coy because no one knows what a coach does on game day..

So what are you suggesting? Still first in west. Don’t get me wrong we’re a flawed team. But we got spoiled. We’re not going to walk through the league and win championships without push back. Do you remember life before O’Shea?

What doesn’t he do? Just curious from your point of view

That’s when you really miss a guy like Grant. Just so smooth and consistent

Who have we been slapped by? Besides the BC game where we returned the favour and then some?

Dude you need a break from the bombers. Teams are coming for us, we’re the litmus test. Even if we lose we’re first in the west.

No doubt.

I like how he says Hamilton has our number like we haven’t kicked their ass in back to back Grey cups. They beat us last year? Wow yeah sure has our number..

No excuses boys. Stay focused, kick some ass and enjoy the bye and get ready for Toronto!!

2023 pf: 32.69 pa: 20.23 2022 pf: 29.88 pa: 20.55 The stats say we are better this year, do you not remember last year we had several games early on that could have gone either way but we managed to pull through, perhaps even undeservingly? I for one do not think the sky is falling. I’ll take this years O any day over last season. We have a better version of Brady, and Lawler.

Maybe we’ll see a pissed of Haba who plays so well they have no choice but to keep him on the roster. I don’t want to see this guy on the PR ever again.

Walters has done a masterful job over the years with the cap, something he really doesn’t get enough credit for.

Until there’s an injury. Let’s face it. He’s the 6th best receiver on this roster, he’s a good player and could be a down field threat which could be useful but he isn’t going to play over the guys we have now.

He’s a gun slinger that’s what he does. He likes to push the ball down field, and moves around the pocket to create time. Most of the time it looks great, especially when his receivers are helping him make plays, sometimes he makes a bad play. Live by the sword, die by the sword, he’s not going to be a game managing QB and quite frankly I would never expect him to be.

I’ve been to all three of those games with my new girl friend. Our first date together was actually the first game against B.C there. It’s been a really fun experience as a fan.

I’ve been defending O’Shea as much as possible but this move is just un excusable. Very frustrated by this.

Our short yardage package was so dominating last year. We were routinely getting 3-6 yards on our second/third and short that we could afford to keep the defense honest by going deep, but when we don’t have that same push we can’t always afford to be as aggressive.

We could use a short yard QB just saying 😉

I’m really excited to see more Habba hopefully. Guy is an absolute monster. He’s a star player waiting to break out. Reminds me a little bit of Phillip Hunt.

We really miss Grant but there’s no excuse not to atleast have another capable returner out there. It’s been bad.

Yeah I don’t know what happened to the ST but also when was the last time the Bombers tricked a fake punt or field goal? I know you can’t use it all the time but when O’Shea first came to the Bombers his ST gimmicks kept us in a lot of games, now we can’t cover kickoffs/punts, we don’t have a capable returner besides Grant, there’s no creativity, and really we’re quite lucky we were able to get Castillo because he’s been one of the few bright spots on ST, otherwise this unit as a whole has been very different then some point past O’Shea coached teams.

Funny how the Rider fans have this weird obsession and conspiracy theory that the refs favour the Bombers for some reason. Almost every game day thread there they talk about it. Jealous much. But in all fairness when we had some lousy teams I know there was a lot of talk about how the refs were never on our side haha! Funny how that works.

Okay and you guys were 4-14 back to back years in 2018 and 2019. What’s your point exactly? How is that relevant to the team now?
