I think its as much a thing of they couldnt pay most top FAs enough money to come play for them. Nichols is still getting starter money though. I think that D has some decent money, plus ward and leone.

Just want to say how nice it is to know that the Bombers are the best team in the league with no ifs, ands or buts.  It was not hard to realize during Swaggerville that our offense sucked.

This year is some good kind of different.

Real barn-burner we got going on here......

If it hasn't been said today, it isn't being said enough... I really appreciate that they've moved to digital ads on the broadcast, removing the on-field ads. It makes it so much more pleasant when watching the game in person.

What a **** GM this guy is. He's clueless. I don't even think he believes his job is in jeopardy. Give the RedBlack fans some hope.

Saskatchewan Roughriders sign former NFL, CFL all-star receiver Duke Williams
October 4, 2021
By Justin Dunk
The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed former NFL and CFL all-star receiver Duke Williams, per sources.

The connections on the current Riders football operations staff, offensive coordinator Jason Maas and assistant general manager Paul Jones helped draw Williams to the green and white. The best recruiter currently wearing Saskatchewan colours: Nick Marshall. He was his quarterback while the two were teammates at Auburn University.

Great signing for them, I’m still not worried

[Booch]

i'm sure it will be a 7 game career there....good signing for sure, but with no QB or oline to allow him time to get a ball will be funny to see his talent wasted....this signing won't put them over the top

[Geebrr]

Agreed.

Not sweating it.

Good player though

He played with a better QB with better receivers around him and won nothing.

So,  it is what it is.

Ain't gonna make Nick Marshall less terrible either.

Would of loved Duke but the Bombers WR is so balanced right now. Seems we have two studs in Lawler and Demski and three guys who on any week can have a game plan that takes of advantage of them.

I would still like to see us get a bully who can put the body on smaller defensive backs … basically Duke. It’s an element we are missing but it doesn’t prevent us from being the GC favorite and it doesn’t put the Riders over the top so whatever.

[Booch]

now we will see more pics from Faj as he tries to force it there now..over and over...you can book that...half of Dukes 50/50 wins were Offensive pass interference, and u need a QB to be able to put a ball in a place to make the catch...that hasn't changed with the Duke signing

He really is a perfect fit for us. Watch him come here next year.

This definitely makes the ssk O better. How much is still to be determined. Hope Cody starts hitting those deep balls cause he has no one else to blame now.

Sorry was that too harsh? Don't want to upset Cody on social media....

Surgery and it will be more like 4 weeks.

Chris Long always says he hates these timelines because it puts pressure on the player.

This time is the time frame of when it medically heals, it doesn't mean you are ready to play.

He makes good points

[M.O.A.B.]

BC missed on Duke Williams sweepstakes. Burnham and Duke would look good together. Although what they need is an RB and OL. 

[Geebrr]

Isn't Rhymes on BC? What happened to that guy?

Cody can't throw a deep ball. In the first half of 2019 it was almost comical how his receivers were bailing him or how lucky he was getting with DBs tipping it right into his receivers hands etc. His luck ran out in the last half of 2019 and has stayed that way since. He chronically underthrows and overthrows receivers. Duke is going to find out that Cody will make him earn every catch he makes.
