"Coates (not going to scare anyone)" Our back up Canadian Rec isn't going to scare anyone??? OMG THIS TEAM IS ****!!!!! And anyone who dumps of Thomas needs to STFU and either relearn or just learn how the CFL works when it comes to CND players. Thomas would be scooped up immediately if released tomorrow. He makes a significant play in almost every game. FOOOOOR example, against the ticats, he hustled off his block and tripped up Green AFTER he got to the second level. Had he not made that play Green scoots for at least 30 yards and possibly a TD. Thomas made the play and stopped the drive. yeah true enough..but he got ate up and swallowed many times at the line and Green and couple times Masolli just breezed on into the second level untouched. Jake is an adequate rotation guy especially when he has limited reps, not a real force when asked to be out there as the de-facto starter and takes majority of the rotational reps, along with first team D-line (starter) reps Pretty much any guy on a defense can be said to have a significant play during a game.

Fair, that's what I was getting at with the way the CND talent is in the league. Thomas isn't ever going to be a star. But he produces. And there's no team in the league that has all their CNDs at an all star level. Teams need to fill gaps with gap fillers. And if he's release. He won't be out of work long.
Booch Posted October 10, 2017 Report Posted October 10, 2017 As a rotaional Canadian...especially at that position we can, and should be better. Over the course of a season if you were to break it down he probably hinders the defense and is a major part of a play going against us, more than a consistent positive. If we are or need to do a rotation as such I think we could be better served doing it elsewhere...especially come cold weather football
Bigblue204 Posted October 10, 2017 Report Posted October 10, 2017 I'm do disagree to a point. I think he's been involved more than he should be. But as a rotational player, I think he does what is asked of him.

But as a rotational player, I think he does what is asked of him. And does it well imo. he dropped the ti-cat RB cold a few times and did it again for small gains a few other times.. I believe he was the last line of defense on at least 2 tackles where if he hadn't stopped or held up the RB, it was going to be a long gain.

Who happens to also hail from Kinshasa, like a former Bombers NAT MLB. Seriously, though, he could be a nice acquisition. Even if only for the future. Solid STer who could also have potential on defense. Edited October 13, 2017 by blue_gold_84
Atomic Posted October 13, 2017 Report Posted October 13, 2017 I'd be shocked if Lokombo finds his way up here this season. I'd expect him to wait for another opportunity in the NFL. blue_gold_84 1
TheSource Posted November 12, 2017 Author Report Posted November 12, 2017 So now Bombers have gone into the playoffs with essentially the same team that came into training camp. It is not a bad team by any means, but both the depth of this team and the effectiveness of their defence is going to be tested. Hopefully they do well, but in my opinion they do not have the depth on either side of the ball to go deep into the playoffs, and based on the work of the entire season, the defense is not good enough to make it to the big game. That said, the defense has played well lately, on any given day, anything can happen. Good luck to your team today, this is the one you clearly want in exactly this form, and the results, good or bad, are what you deserve.
