First drive of the game

You got a better plan?

Streveler had receivers open (I was at the game). He just couldn't find them. He's not a bonafide #1 QB yet. Maybe he will be someday, maybe he won't. Sorry, that's not all on our OC. ( With that argument I could say "Stick me in at QB, and if I don't succeed it's LaPolice's fault" -ridiculous!!) Streveler is a great athlete, a fantastic talent. But he has to grow his mental game yet.

Yes. Agreed. They didn't give it to Harris enough. It's hind sight of course, but we were down near the red zone 3 times - we could have fed it to Harris

Riders were ready for him to run. Dickinson said so before the game. They took away his legs and let him beat them with his arm. He couldn't.

Rider commentators said Streveler is a Nealon Green in another number. Yeah, sadly I'd have to agree. He's not CFL starting QB material.

No. Streveler was horrible. But yeah, game planning could improve too.

The guy on post game rider radio - 650- said the Bombers are wasting a championship - type defense this year because their weakness is QB. I'd tend to agree at this point. Bringing in Kevin Glenn and promising him the starters job by the last game of season is likely our ONLY hope of winning a playoff game. We likely won't win even one more game this year with Streveler.

Can we sign this guy (if he's a free agent) in the off-season as our QB? (Not kidding)

I'm going with a buddy. There'll be a little bit of Blue in the crowd.

Either MOS didn't notice or, what I'm guessing (I can't see Willy making up a story) is that it's the same-old, same-old from MOS - never, ever throw your team under the bus publicly. Okay, I can respect that position, but...if things don't improve with the team, if we have another first round play off exit, jobs - coaches jobs, will be gone

Agree with both of the above statements. Walters may indeed be looking for a seasoned back up ( he'd be kind of stupid not to be open to the idea at least). Nothing desirable has come across his desk yet. The only real possibilities are Glenn or one of Toronto's trio.(or unless we trade for Reilly ha!)

Well said!! As unlikely as it would be ( and it would take some humble pie), having Nichols here as a back-up next year would be good for both sides!

I'm not a country music fan but I have to say...well done CFL!

Not if Streveler has any level of success this year. i.e. playoff success

And if he was injured during the game, why did they leave him in?? ('Cause the way we played, we were preserving the win, anyway).

Pound for pound talent, Eugene Goodlow was likely the best Bomber receiver I have ever witnessed in my lifetime (IMHO).

Derek Taylor (on 620 radio in Regina) was just going off on the CFL today for not throwing Adams out. He said absolutely the Bombers would have won if the right call was made. He interviewed Arash Madani who agreed and said the CFL needs to be held accountable. Taylor further commented that if the tables were turned and Bighill had hit Adams with his helmet "he would have been suspended for the entire year!"

Yup...and win the Cup!

Not a must win game of course...but man, to maintain 1st in the West we need this! Go Blue!!

Possibly the worst trade in CFL history.

Yes and that 1990 Bombers team had the best defense in the league - but had the LOWEST scoring offense in the league!!

Rod Hill was working at a Wal-Mart a number of years ago. And then later at a Superstore. I'm not sure where he is working now.

Sure. If you want to shrink your Hippocampus (but I digress).
