  1. we're basically also doing the same thing to Jake... but for different reasons 😉
  2. completely agree... Biggie announced on social media that he's not done... hopefully the Bombers brass disagrees... if he wants to sign a cheap-ish 1 year deal and sit on the six game all year as a defacto additional defensive coach... I wouldn't be opposed to that
  3. Amazing how much more professional the Elks have become since relieving Jones... They may not make the playoffs after the (potential) back-to-back losses to the Bombers... but they definitely feel like a team that's finally on the upswing in the west
  4. Collingsworst (I accidentally spelled his name wrong and when I went back to review the squiggly line, I felt apt to leave it as is) is the Suitor of the NFL... doesn't provide any insight to the game... just beats home the "storyline" to death Back to the game... I wonder if starting MBT (which I expect them to do) closes the run game down a bit?... with Ford in there, our DL always had to respect the RPO... now they know MBT is no threat to run
  5. Jones isn't really that young... he recently turned 29... but he's a pretty decent MLB option for at least the next year or two
  6. Reminds me of that sequence in the second (I think?) quarter when Edm rattled off 2 or 3 really nice runs in a row… then on a first down the D went tackle for no gain, sack, forced punt…. Ugly start to the drive, nice finish
  7. IMO, overall a net positive: Stanley > Vanterpool Wheatfall > Johnson Wilson > Bridges MCI < Woli Dolegala < Strev As others have mentioned... the only thing I'm disappointed in is not finding a way to get Adams on the roster... I feel like the DL played it's best with him in
  8. Funny you mention this... I had about 15 mins to kill yesterday and flipped open youtube and came across that... only got about half way through the first but I definitely plan to watch the whole thing!
  9. I think they're only hope is to try and keep pace with Edm and hope the tie sneaks them in... IMO the west playoff field will be Winnipeg, BC and Edmonton
  10. been saying this for a long time... Sask needs to lock up O'day to a lifetime contract... nothing would make me happier than to see him stay in Sask for a long time... this is just pathetic.... how boring and desperate must your life be that this is the kind of thing you commit time and money too
  11. I actually don't mind the new NFL kick off rule... the only thing I don't like about it is it eliminates the surprise on-side kick
  12. The BC defense is definitely concerning... if you're a BC fan
  13. Mass changes... agreed... but if this offseason there is an elite pass rusher and/or offensive tackle available in FA... the Bombers would be wise to pursue both... even if it means potentially going over the cap
  14. the games in Edmonton and in Hamilton are the ones that concern me the most... home against Edm and Tor should be wins... the finale in Mtl - with Mtl likely having first locked up - should be winnable too
  15. I think you could make a case for Terrell Bonds... that guy has been lights out this year... how do we know he's been good?... he is NEVER mentioned during a game... teams simply don't throw at him.... Ford is having a great year and the stats back it up... but there's a reason quarterbacks challenge Ford much more than they challenge Bonds...
  16. I didn't even realize that was a thing in the CFL... why would a player sign that?... why not sign now and make some money and get some game tape?
  17. Isn't Harrison the guy who dressed for 2-3 games and never touched the field once??
  18. The chatter/touting of "the next big thing" starts in a guy's sophomore year in college... not NFL training camp
  19. For all we know Corny has moved on from football at this point... The two they are bringing in seem to be the most logical...
  20. for me, it's not so much about taking shots and opening it up... it just feels like there is no creativity or variation to our offense... run up the gut, throw a screen, and the occasional down field pass seems to be like 90% of the offense... I want to see the O take what they're given and adjust to expose the weaknesses of other Ds... sometimes the plays feel predictable to fans on TV or in the stands... nevermind to the opposing D
  21. that's just not true... if that was the case, the Bears would've taken him 2nd overall and there's no way 8 other teams would've passed on him
  22. I don't know that people said he wasn't any good... just very overrated by the CFL media... Farhan calling him a top 20 QB in the world is insane... It's possible to be great and overrated... see: Brady, Tom
  23. I’m not sure if this is the answer… but the fact that 3 different d-lineman have cheap-shotted Zach in 3 consecutive years should be a major red flag… they appear to have no ability to reign in the “excitement” of a rivalry game
  24. HH - remember when the riders were 5-1?… yeah, me neither
