If anything Kramdi is reliable enough to provide the ratio flexibility to do something crazy like an all import D-line... which we will never do, for some reason...

Kramdi hasn't been perfect... but he's 4th in line of players that need to be replaced on this D... Thomas, BA, and Biggie are much bigger concerns than Kramdi

Man that D-line just makes my head shake... I hope I'm proven wrong but I could see McCheese having a lot of time in the pocket tonight...

Fayad being cut is not what people are upset about... it's cutting him without an adequate replacement ready to go that's the problem... if Garbutt or Haba were ready to play it would be a different story. Our pass rush this week is an 8th round Canadian rookie, a 225 lb Global rookie, and a 33 year old who doesn't do a whole lot of effective pass rushing anymore... luckily Cgy doesn't have a mobile QB

I'm not sure why people keeping suggesting this was some kind of mercy play... they were up 7-0 in the first quarter... you think they thought "oh poor Bombers, we should just kick a FG so we don't embarrass them"... they kicked the FG because they were concerned about either our short yardage D or their short yardage O... if anything, we should be pointing out this goal line decision as a plus for our D.

I always preface these type of things by saying I'm nowhere near an expert... but to my untrained eye, I was not super impressed with Petrishen... Moses seemed like a keeper... I didn't get a good glimpse of Thomas... but a lot of people around here (who's opinion's I trust) seemed to like him... Ayers has looked decent on team so far this year (has he taken any reps on D?) and he's always listed as WIL on the DC, not sure if that means anything... I feel like he's this year's Cole.... start out primarily on teams and slowly start working his way into the defense...

I don't see anyone totally blowing their wad but if Demski is at 225... Philpott should easily make 250

We had an old guy in rookie camp day 1 that can probably provide more than what we've seen from a bunch of the receivers this year...

just trying to help out the cause...

for sure... and I'm not saying he should never do it... but I'm concerned that's basically going to be the entire offense...

usually the ones who show up here just to fling ****... are not the real football fans anyways

All I want to see is a game plan where Streveler is an actual quarterback.... a few designed runs is ok... but I have a bad feeling there is going to be a lot design runs and RPO type stuff tonight... at this point, I don't have a lot of faith in Buck's game planning.

"you don't know you're in the "good old days" until they're over" -Ed Helms character (Andy??) from the Office (I think)

I'll be honest... I'm a little surprised our board hasn't been flooded with rider trolls yet... just based on the way the two teams have started the season

I think zero since O'Shea has already indicated Collaros will not play at all tonight... as a matter of fact, he probably won't even be dressed.

I agree with all of this... except BA needs to be out of the lineup, now... he made the team this year based on the 2021 version of himself... and despite not being anywhere near that anymore... he still continues to start

Don't worry guys.... THIS is the week the interior Oline starts to dominate....

gotta wonder where Buck Pierce has gone to... there are still a lot of talented players in this offense... surely we can design something that works to our team's strengths

even worse... it's the back up RB and back up QB...

The receivers are meh... but my biggest concern is still the lines... the interior Oline has been bad for 3 games... so I guess they'll just magically be better tomorrow? And the Dline... maybe if we can play Fayad-Woods-Adams-Jefferson most of the game it could be ok... but Willie will be done by the 3rd quarter... Can we bring back Chauncy Rivers?? Or even as some have suggested... No Pee Leonard! As long as he's learned to relieve himself by now...

I'm nowhere near and expert on O-line play (like most here)... but even to the untrained eye, you can see the Bombers have had massive trouble with interior protection this season... I honestly think that's one of the major reason the offense has started out so slow... fix that and you have an easier time establishing the run game and give Zach another second or two in the pass game... and you fix the offense.

not only that... when is the last time BA actually tackled a guy... and not just lowered his shoulder only to have the opponent bounce off him and continue on.

I didn't watch the game... but is Fajardo actually good now?

so out of curiosity, how does that work? because he bailed on his contractual obligation to the Bombers, he is still Bombers property? Wouldn't retirement just negate that? or does that mean he cannot sign a one day contract because he is still under contract with the Bombers?
