"Week Of" Thread - Bombers @ Elks (Week 7)

[Noeller]

follow up: 

3 of our next 4 against them.... interesting stuff. 

[JCon]

Bomber D-Line vs Elks O-Line. 

Harris knew what was coming, so he escaped the pressure really, really early. 

[rebusrankin]

Tough break for Edmonton.

[Noeller]

I'm giggling about how tweaked Riders fans are going to be about this... "THEY ONLY PLAY TEAMS THAT ARE FULL OF INJURIES!!11!!"

Well that makes this weekends game interesting... do we know anything about the backup?

Dakota Prukop looks like next man up.

Prukop I think is their no2. taylor Cornelius no3. Taylor is 6'5 235 and a 1 year starter in college. That one year he threw almost 4k yards, ran for 400 more, 32 passing tds 10 rushing.  Hes got a big arm, quick release, and good down field touch. Doesnt seem like a guy who can run the short yardage passing game. Pretty young and raw.

Oh man, now I am going to have to change my pick to the Bombers from the Elks in the weekly pickems....(kidding).....

[Bigblue204]

Well damn...if this week wasn't a trap game before. It certainly is now.

Per TSN they are saying Corny Taylor is the No.2.  I prefer Robert Wagner.

Especially if they bring in Rocky Butler...

I am struggling to remember Prokup as an Oregon Duck. I just can't place him.

Interesting. Prukop has bounced around a bit. Backed up for TO for 3 years, cut my cal this year. He really busted out when he went to the ducks. 

 

That was my first thought too, but this D is too good to get throw off by a rookie back up qb. 

[TrueBlue4ever]

Getting way ahead of things here, if the Bombers sweep Edmonton and BC in their next 5, regardless of anything else that happens, they clinch a playoff spot. Add a Calgary loss anywhere in that time and we clinch a home game, add 2 Sask. losses and we clinch first place by game 11.

he only played a handful of games after transferring to oregon. He was a bust with the ducks.

It sounds like a good idea on paper but no team is going to help Edmonton out. 

Calgary's not going to give up Maier, we're not going to give up McGuire. Ottawa might give up Nichols, but that does nothing for Edmonton. MBT maybe? Meh.

So glad I’m gonna be there to see this 

[Bubba Zanetti]

Yikes. Kinda wanted to face Harris and crush them declaring our supremacy to the world.

[wbbfan]

2019 was the year of the return man, 2021 is the year of the back up qb.

I figured 5 wins in a 14 game season almost locks up a playoff spot as it is. At least in the East that’s a guaranteed playoff!
