  1. Give Nichols a chance to see if he can develop chemistry with Smith. Denmark has been pretty quiet the last two games as well. I don't necessarily like the move, but lets see what happens. Honestly who would you pull to put Smith in? Dressler? Kohlert? Shepphard? This is a good problem to have.
  2. The popular rumour is that Smith will take Denmarks spot on the O. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/bombers/smith-raring-to-face-old-mates-392674351.html
  3. I just crashed and burned! Good luck to all those remaining!
  4. Poor clock management reared it's ugly head. Harris almost ran out the clock trying to get them into better field goal range. And why in the world did they not take a timeout to stop the clock? Do fans know more about the 3 minute rule than the actual coaches of the game? I'm happy we won but we easily could have lost had the game gone to overtime.
  5. Alright... going with Harris!
  6. I think the turnaround is due to Nichols. For whatever reason, Willy had/has a very difficult time reading defense, and Lapo's offence doesn't suit Willy's play style. When Nichols took over, the offence immediately clicked. That sent a message to the defense: "The offence will move the ball, so let's get it back to them". That probably sparked the brain child in Richie Hall to say "Hey we can be more aggressive". Benching Willy provided the chain reaction of sparks that this team desperately needed. Benching your highest paid player, sends a very clear message to the rest of the team. We're seeing it paying off. Just my .02

  8. Geez, completely forgot about this. If I'm still eligible, I'll take Harris.
  9. Man I feel bad for Hardrick. Guy was practically crying when he had to come out for the 2nd time. Hope hes OK.
  10. McDaniel PS> Thanks Jpan85 for doing this week in and week out!

  12. Time to step it up boys Greg Ellingson
  13. The offence sputtered once again when it was needed. 10 first downs in 3 quarters of football is flat out atrocious. We forced two turnovers inside the 25 yd line and came away with 3 points! Turn those into 2 TD's and we win this game. Willy is still is very inaccurate with his throws and overthrowing or under throwing his receivers. The boos he received tonight were well deserved. The defense got shredded again tonight, but still gave us a chance to win. This loss is on the O. I'm curious what the board here thinks on how much more time to give Willy? Is the fact that we have no running game (no surprise there) contributing to his awful performance? Should he be benched in favour of Nichols? Thoughts?

  15. The offence is pathetic. 9 first downs in 3 quarters of football. 10 mins of possession in 1st half???? I don't know why I thought this year would be better. This is a repeat of last week.

  17. I just hope that LaPo breathers some new life in a very stale offence. I wasn't too impressed by pre-season, but I think they were holding back. GO BLUE! AAAAANNNNNNNNDDDDD..... SACK KEVIN GLENN!
  18. First time player here... hope I remember to do this every week.... This week I'll choose the Flyin Hawaiian Chad Owens
  19. I think Marcel B. needs to be on the chopping block. There is no imagination on the offence. It's struggled since he was brought on.
  20. Well I'm certainly not on medication. And I probably should clarify my statement of "last year was a good year" because there was improvement both on and off the field. I'm not happy we have the longest Grey Cup Drought. but I see a positive change coming and I think we'll be poised to end that drought.
  21. Hey Everyone! I for one am excited for the upcoming 2015 season. I'm anxiously awaiting kickoff. I want to point out that I am thrilled with all the work that Walters has done in trying to rebuild this team from laughing stock to respectability. I'm curious to know what people's expectations for the 2015 season are. Last year was a good year, and there will be lots to build off. Does anyone think it's possible we can be playing for the Grey Cup in our backyard? I realize that in a 9-team league, the Bombers could go to the dance, but I'm wondering would that pressure hurt or help the Bombers this year? Personally with all the new personnel in place, and all the new acquisitions, I thinking we'll be a .500 team this year. There's a lot to be said about chemistry tjos year and with so many new faces, I think it'll take us 2-3 games before we get to see what the Bombers are made of. I like the additions of the o-line, and they should defintiely keep Willy on his feet... but I hope Wiily starts getting rid of the ball a bit quicker and learsn to throw balls away. I'd rather see a ball thrown out of bounds, then him getting sacked trying to make a play. Anyways lets hear your thoughts Bomber fans? What's going to be our achilles heel this year? What will be our biggest strength? Cheers! I can't wait for kickoff!
  22. Correct me if I'm wrong but don't all Shaw customers have NHL centre ice now for free this year?
