  1. I think sometimes as CFL fans, we and I include myself in this for sure, get a little too attached to term PR players especially guys who have had extended runs on them. A guy like Adugosi who has PRed for what...3 seasons....and has not cracked the lineup isn't going to be the one who got away imo. They are on the PR for a reason, and it is usually because they are at best fringe CFLers. There are guys you bring in late for some experience before next year's TC, but once you go through camp and almost a full season on the PR I think your release is pretty much a non-event.
  2. For sure. We got badly out teamed that day and otherwise won the battle of O and D. However, our kick coverage and return game was just terrible that game.
  3. That was what I had read as well.
  4. Cream rises to the top. Simple as that. I think it is fallacy to suggest that rookies are never given a chance. Pure fiction. We have had outstanding contributions from rookie starters over the past several seasons that have taken the place of veterans who we moved on from. People are POed at MOS for being too loyal in season but he values chemistry and it can't be understated what effect a coaches loyalty has in the dressing room either. A lot of us like to think this is a game of Madden, and if we have a young guy who is a 92 and an aging vet that is a 92 that we should go with the young guy...and that is not the right move in anything other than video game football. We have Eli ripening on the vine at centre, and I kind of agree that he should be the future at OC. However, if we were going to make that move it needed to happen in June not now and he wasn't quite back to being game ready yet. I am a pretty firm believer in not shaking up your OL in season any more than you have to because of injuries unless there is a very glaring problem. I don't see a problem that is that noteworthy with our OL right now. I am hopeful that Eli goes and has a great offseason, and is ready to be our OC next year. Pretty much every team utilizes the same block schemes. There is not a ton of possible variation without getting silly.
  5. Yea...they were putting 6 guys on the LOS in a lot of the running situations so we tossed it to him instead.
  6. They were loading the box so we dumped it to him in the flats. Way smarter approach and effective apparently. Counts as passing plays but really just a glorified running play. Really a totally underutilized part of BOs game and the time of year to pull it out.
  7. Ooh.. thought you were asking why BC doesn't run more. My bad. BO did have 20 touches last night. 1st Q was poor for sure. Full credit to the Lions tho, they executed well to start the game.
  8. BCs run game is awful. Does that clear it up? They could try run the ball more but 2nd and long makes for short drives.
  9. I love it when I hear a fan blame a loss on the refs. It's a last resort kind of whine and generally only happens when a team has no other excuses for losing and a fan has no one else to blame. It's a form of denial. Lyin Guy can't mentally cope with the reality that his team can't beat us over the course of a 60 minute game so he went to the default blame it on the refs. He knows his team brought its A game and the Bombers made ample mistakes and his team still lost. As with most fanatics, instead of dealing with the reality of what that means it is far easier to put on the tin foil hat and I LOVE IT. Exactly what I want to hear from opposition fans because it is an admission that their team had no other excuses. It gave me great satisfaction to read the Riderfan conspiracy thread. Just shows how far out ahead of these two teams we truly are.
  10. Ball is not a journalist he is a cheerleader. I can't prove it but I think he might be Migs. Jk..sort of They refuse to run because they can't do it.
  11. Zac showed a ton of resiliency tonight too. Didn't let it snowball..just kept working for the win. I went to Riderfans and it seems I missed the fact that there is a league wide reffing conspiracy going on favoring the Bombers. Who knew...learn something new everyday there.
  12. Terrible PI call. Guess we are playing the refs today too.
  13. Anyone thinking Osh has lost the room and should be fired needs to put down the crack pipe for a while. Best coach in the CFL by far.
  14. Forcing other teams to have to go 10-12 play drives is important too. Adams is not a guy that is going to drive long all game without turning the ball over.
  15. Having Janarion back is massive. HUGE. Of all possible roster changes this week this is by far the biggest. What he adds to our roster cannot be overstated. He is good for a hundred yards of bonus field position imo.
  16. As the weather gets colder he will have no choice really.
  17. He did look very good, as did most of your secondary.
  18. I call BS on that as well. No coach with a lick of sense would ever put his players in harms way like that. An idiotic notion really. You guys are acting like you are all that and a bag of chips, at the end of the day you will be hoping that a rookie QB can handle the difference between regular season and playoff football. Good luck with that. Dinwiddie is effectively taking old mo out of the equation as well.
  19. Yes It was nothing but fantasy after the first sentence...so I just skimmed.
  20. Meh..Dukes did diddly squat after 1Q. Argos didn't look like a team we can't beat, even with all their starters. We ran about as vanilla an O and D scheme as I've seen since 2016 and let the cream rise to the top. Bluto can yap his gams but the complete and total domination of our OL over their DL should worry any Argo fan. That was like men against boys and full lineup or not they can't stop Brady.
  21. Go pass on an electric fence. Your team showed its true colors. What a crock of **** you are trying to peddle. Ever stop to think maybe we were the ones dumbing things down and just doing enough to win without showing our cards. Nope..because like most Argo fans you'd rather stick your head in the sand and claim all things Argo are great. That's what happens when you a fan in a void I guess..reality isn't easy to differentiate from wishful thinking.
  22. Yea..but he has been drawing a crap load of double coverage.
  23. Ouellette will be a big challenge for sure. Yea..we need to stop that but they have been pretty stingy in 2nd halves of games.
  24. First place would help big time. Rotating personnel had a lot to do with it through the first few games, and lack of game film against new QBs has hurt us. We are not loaded with 20 year old speedster on our team. What makes our D really good is that they are veteran laden and rarely get tricked or caught out of position. Vet teams are more reliant on game film to make sure they are in the right position.
  25. No one has more experience at doing so then our guys.
