Optimism Is basically it can’t get any worse can it? I don’t see how. Unless every starter gets injured.

Perhaps an interesting side story is Calgary was the team who Zach basically started his Bombers career against. That miraculous run around avoiding tackles and finding the receiver in the end zone game. That’s what I’d like to see, throwback days really, I don’t know if Zach has that in him anymore tho. Maybe that’s a good omen or maybe it’s terrible. I’m not sure.

You know. I’ve been tough on old Jake but nobody gonna turn down a contract and reps if they are given to you. I could see a world where Thomas is a rotational veteran who gets 10 to 20 reps a game. He’s Canadian so he’s harder to actually replace. But for guys like bighill Alexander and even Wilson to just be handed their spots is insane. There’s millions of American lbs and Dbs out there. Pretty sure we were the only team to not cut a veteran tho. Most others certainly did. We sat our veterans and cut all the rooks said it before. Last time our entire line backing crew looked good was pre season. Same with the DL. Bring all the vets with no reps back and yup… when you actually break everything down… what’s actually holding us back tho isn’t Jake or bighill or Wilson or BA, it’s the coach who refuses to tell them it’s over that’s the real issue here. Roster management is on coaching and it’s killing us. It really is. I really thought a coaches job in all sports is to roster the best players you can. I understand you need role players, foot soldiers also. In hockey you have guys who just penalty kill or who are experts at face offs. Etc. I get in football you got those guys also, but nobody can tell me or anyone else that looking at the depth chart every week, that’s the most optimized use of the roster. It’s not. crazy question Does firing O’Shea actually fix lots of the problems? Or is it more than just Vladimir O’Shea.

Are the bombers a dictatorship and not a democracy? Do the coordinators have no say at all in who or who doesn’t get reps or dresses? If so, not sure how long it will be until it’s time to take down them walls. The natives I think will be a restless bunch tonight. Bombers need to execute or the boo birds gonna be out early and often. O’Shea playing with fire here tonight. I almost think if we lose that changes will happen because wade will make it happen. Can’t no show at home and expect the ppl to bend over and take it. But what could go wrong really. I think our fans will have an understanding after the first O series if Zach is back or if he’s cooked for real. If there’s no fire or urgency O’Shea needs to pull him. He won’t tho and that to me is the most interesting storyline about tonight, how long will O’Shea give collaros if he’s struggling. How long until the boo birds begin.

Kramdi 139k. Kolo. Gotta be close. Thomas ain’t making minimum. The money could have been spent on grant. They decided to go a different way.

Yeah. Smith has looked good. Special teams minus the punter have been a pretty positive story so far. Mitchell was crap. Not sure why he’s still on the roster honestly. This years Damien Jackson

He’s being paid by 3 teams next season.

Yup he’s worried about getting Drew Willy’d.

Just like there’s nobody to replace bighill and Wilson really. Same with BA. Growing pains. Or lawler or Schoen for that matter. Even Zach. I want to think Streveler is but I have my doubts that they feel the same.

Matt Damon.

Had to sign Thomas and kramdi lol

Yes. That happens regularly tho it seems in the league. Maybe Daniels had more chemistry with The hanging Chad tho

I dunno. Is it 3 years ago? It’s amazing how fast guys go from studs to duds in this league.

Reminds me of an Aaron belisle the mute comedian joke. I won’t say it cuz perhaps offensive to the French. I’m part French tho.

You have to remember Utah didn’t have a team before. It would be like if the Jets didn’t exist before they came back. What would they have been called if we didn’t have a team before. Nobody knows. The Rutger stuff is weird. I don’t think it’s about Winnipeg. The reality is he played in Winnipeg tournaments as a kid. His dad is Canadian. It’s about guaranteeing him a roster spot. It’s not about the jets or Winnipeg. It’s about no ahl. I don’t know what to believe anymore. I almost feel like he’s going to sign with us just because the media is so convinced he won’t.

I don’t think that’s an option. did you hear how Chevy spoke of him? And then of a guy like lambert and chib. that relationship is done. It’s over. I’d be shocked if he’s ever a Jet.

Yes the same stuff from week 1 is being said because we are now going into week 6 and nothing has changed. Actually that’s not true. We somehow in week 6 think that a rookie cdn (he’s been strong) a 220 pound linebacker global Jake Thomas and schmeck is the answer to a 7 man DLine rotation. 4 of our 7 right there. The other is Willy who needs some help. Maier isn’t a runner tho so maybe we will be ok there. I don’t know but in week 6 our best options are still Jake Thomas Adam bighill Brandon Alexander all starting. Kramdi also. ? Yeah shits gonna get repetitive. Cuz it’s just a repeat since week 1 every week. It’s ridiculous we have 2 fbs and no extra DBs or a 220 pound global is the best option ? Gimme a break. im a bombers fan. But honestly at what point do you actually put a veteran or 2 or 3 on the bench. At what point does Thomas not get reps like he’s Doug Brown? It’s ridiculous.

He has leverage in 2 years. He has none right now. If I’m the gm, I tell him he can go ufa in 2 years. Until then **** off. In what world do mid 1st rd picks have any sort of say. He’s an entitled prick. And if I’m Chevy he can rot and not make nhl money for 2 more years. At this point a 2nd rd pick for losing him is something I’d be good with. his buddy gauthier was a top 5 pick. Rutger was taken 14th overall. He ain’t the guy ppl think he is. sounds like other gms aren’t a fan of his demands either. Tells me the demands are the problem. you know who also had charisma and a personality? We just bought him out. Ppl are fooled by the kids fake personality.

Careful dude. Them sounds like differing opinions. Is that allowed anymore cuz seems ppl get upset with differing opinions

lol. Some of you take opinions so personal it’s insane. Honestly. Have you ever been told no? Cuz sounds like maybe you haven’t. You’ll learn one day not everyone always agrees on fan forums and that’s what makes them work. Differing opinions upsets you? Must be a millennial

lol. Right cuz BC putting up 500 yards and then stopping at our goal line is close. Yes they are competitive against Ottawa lol but Montreal and BC , 2 good teams **** kicked us despite the end scores

Those other teams were actively trying to get better. We are actively trying to get an extra draft pick for starting 11 Canadians. I don’t get how ppl can see what’s happening and think yup we just about there. I mean if the guys who were struggling were being sat out , ok but nope. If we had younger guys on the PR learning but nope we don’t. We expect a team of cooked veterans to all of a sudden be better? lol. Honestly. How? These guys aren’t gonna get better. They gonna get worse

This roster management has been a problem for 10 years. None of this stuff is new. We were just winning so it was glossed over. Now we can’t even throw a passing TD so the issues here are now being talked about. Pretty simple. Winning hides the faults, losing brings them out.

People who are disagreeing. Name 1 thing you are seeing that tells you things are gonna get better. We have 1 passing TD in 5 games. We are starting 11 Canadians. A week after a stupid play kramdi is being promoted. The roster management. Myron Mitchell. 2 fullbacks. Starting Jake Thomas over Adams when you don’t need to. I don’t get it. Honestly. Guess ppl just refuse to see the facts. There’s nobody on the PR with a future.

2 fullbacks also. honestly. What do ppl think walters is doing right now besides throwing things.
