bold move, cotton. 

Where does Harris land in the offseason?

[bustamente]

I'm guessing the forecast in Edmonton will be heavy balls and flexing but in the end it will be another W for the Bombers

"Elizondo adds it’s a hard decision to make because of his history with Harris but says even though the struggles are not all on him he’s not getting enough out of the QB position as his starter. Feels they can attack differently with Cornelius and Prukop. #Elks #CFL"

Yeah, ok.

Yeah, ok.

They sure can attack differently.... but in the end it won't matter much because the Bombers D will feast on a rookie qb.

No surprises this time. 

[rebusrankin]

Surprised by this decision but Elizondo seems a step up from Coach Steve from Big Mouth and not a huge step.

I would've thought Harris would've started at home,give their O a boost but I'm surprised by this,we should have help as we've now got solid film on him against our D. I expect a serious beating given by our D and a Bomber win by at least 17.

[Noeller]

Bombers are gonna be so pissed off after laying an egg (relatively speaking) at home, there's not a team in the league that would beat them this coming Friday...

Toronto and maybe before the trade dead line.

I can see Toronto or Ottawa. Reuniting Harris in Ottawa would make a little sense but I can see Toronto as well.

I don't know, pissing off MBT ancestors sounds like the way to curse your franchise.

I think ott will stick with their young guys. 

 Sleeper pick maybe ssk gets in and does and double trade like we did with Glenn back in the day.

Harris will land in Saskatchewan after they jettison Fajardo

Does he want to play behind that line. I mean even if they pull a dump truck full of money up to his house?

If a dump truck from Saskatchewan pulls up to my house... I'm not thinking it's money inside!  💩

[do or die]

Not surprised by the QB move.  Harris looked a bit nervous in the service, last week.......

[Mark F]

I guess the knight of good kickoffs is going to be around.

By my math (not sure if it's good though )... 

Bombers will officially clinch playoff with a win (vs Edm) and a loss by Cgy (vs BC)

I guessing that its because Cornelius has better healthcare coverage.

I think that Calgary/BC could be very interesting this week as both teams are now fighting for positioning with the same record. League gave the Riders the bye just in time so we don't have to hear Fajardo ***** and whine some more this week.

The Calgary game is irrelevant. Since Calgary plays Sask again, if the Stamps lose that game they have 6 losses and cannot catch a Winnipeg team with 9 wins. If Sask loses they have 5 losses and lose the tiebreaker with Winnipeg based on the season series. If the game ends up tied, Calgary would still finish behind Winnipeg in points. So just a win and we have a playoff spot.

A WPG win (9) this week will ensure us AT LEAST a 9-5 win loss record (probably 3rd best in the West) which CGY wont be able to match IF they will lose (6) this week since the best record that they will be able come up is 8-6 record.

Barring a collapse of epic proportions....I don't see us  not hosting the West Final...even if we lose Collaros for a game or two....I'm not worried at all
