Hey now, get those facts outta here... one isolated stat is all you need to evaluate a player...

This might be one of the worst takes I’ve read here in quite some time... rider fans excluded (obviously)...

Maybe Hervey doesn’t have 6-8 core guys that want to stick with his team... but I guarantee O’Shea and Walters have that many or more that want to play for them...

That could be accurate... considering he has a full beard...

The thing about Streveler too... he’s not that big based on measurables... everyone just assumes he’s 6’5, 230 the way he runs guys over... I’ve had to correct people countless times that he’s “only” 6’1, 215... of course, that’s an impressively built 215, but nevertheless, he’s trucking LBs that often have 20+ pounds on him...

I agree with you in theory... but I’d much rather play the WCF in Winnipeg than in Calgary or Regina...

Accidentally stumbled across some rider twitter today... don’t get too excited guys... sounds like the only reason the bombers won by 25 points (yes TWENTY FIVE POINTS) is because of the refs... also Rod Peterson needs to take a page from Cody Farjado and learn a thing or two about class... Farjardo’s comments after the game were smart, reflective and showed a ton of leadership... I have a lot more respect for that guy now... however, I wouldn’t be too upset if he goes 0-8 the rest of the season...

One thing I really like about streveler... he still has a long way to go in the passing game... but it feels like no play is dead when he’s back there... if he can consistently throw for 200 years this year and continue to improve... he’s on pace to be a good cfl Qb

I'd say I'm a shredded* guy too... *when it come to the type of cheese I like on my pizza

this is pretty good natured... .good on the for having some fun with it...

yes... that is a thing that would happen to the bombers! 😭

yes and no... just because he does well in Mtl.... does not necessarily mean he was ever going to do well here... maybe he was just a square peg in a round hole offense...

When Jeffcoat is healthy... and with the emergence of Kongbo... I'm not sure if there will be room for Roh on the line...

didn't he lead the riders to the grey cup in 97 or 98?... only to lose by 107 to Flutie and the Argos...

He'd be considered small in the NFL too... most teams would want a 6'7 DE to be 280+ lbs... warranted or not, size matters in the NFL... Also: Williepeg*

for sure, it goes back much further than that.... 2011 just really cemented it for me....

not really sure what to think of this...

I pretty much expect a Bomber loss every year on Labour Day.... records be damned... I've felt that way ever since he 7-1 vs 1-7 fiasco...

I've always wondered why they don't give out the awards half way through the year... now I know...

Sounds like, according to Bauming, the run game will feature Santiago, Augustine and Demski... I like it... multiple looks.... I'd like to see the offense involve Janarion Grant too... having a few set plays with him and Lucky on the field together could be dangerous... I'm constantly told we have the most brilliant/creative OC in the league... so let's see what he can put together...

So just looking at Edm's roster... the only Global they have on their active roster is french LB Maxime Rouyer... his stat line for the year is 2 special teams tackles in 10 games... Hansen's stat line in 10 games is 5 tackles, 1 sack and one forced fumble... Now Hansen has most of those stats (probably all of them) in the last two games but still I would argue he's been the most significant global player so far...

I could've sworn we had a thread about this but I can't seem to find it... anyways, here's a list from cfl.ca about former CFL players trying to make the NFL... https://www.cfl.ca/2019/08/28/nfl-cut-tracker-plenty-cfl-ties-south/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter though this list is a little silly cuz there's a few guys that will never be in the CFL... Christian Covington, Stefan Charles, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, David Onyemata... just to name a few that stick out to me...

Interesting... I'll have to re-watch that play...

It's funny that we typically have the reverse reaction of rider fans... When riders cut someone... riders fans: "he was a bum anyways, who needs em" When bombers cut someone... Bomber fans: "oh no... this is going to haunt us!"

I think we were all (Bomber brass included) waiting for that breakout game... and 10 games into the season the team decided that it was not coming...
