So how are we going to replace Kyrie Wilson? Injuries are piling up. Yes we have a decent PR. Maybe there is talent or super talent. BUT, nobody can match Kyrie.s experience and know how.

I think there's a very good chance we sign Awe if Wilson is done for the season

Great add.  Like an extra draft pick.  Get him in camp before he goes to college to become draft eligible, finally use our territorial exemption. I was coaching in the U16 tryouts/Blue and Gold g

McRae was better than our homebrew RBs but not by much. The problem lies elsewhere.

He had 3 carries...so can't judge that yet...he had quickness and elusiveness in his 3 attempts...more than we seen from anyone to this point in season

SO... if there is a long term injury to WIlson... do we reach out and employ Tre Watson?

I still go to Awe first...

The offence will change in many ways for the better if we can run for meaningful yardage in the first half. Maybe we’d have a few more cocky fans - which is always fun!

Leggs is gaining confidence as he goes...and we managing him perfectly....he's doing all 3.....and doing punting and kickoffs exceptionally well, and it looks like his FG's are coming along too....he's a yr older....a year wiser, and it shows....

Looks like the rookie yips are over.

I think if they bring in anyone (if Wilson's injury is as bad as it potentially could be).... whether that be Watson or Awe... they will be to back-up Clements... I think the club really likes him and it's his job to lose in the coming weeks.

The net effect of his quickness and elusiveness was still little better than Oliveira or Augustine. The logical conclusion is that the O-line has to do better, With the opposition not respecting the running game, the linebackers can drop into coverage and disrupt the the only passing game have- the short and medium passes. So the offence suffers.

I thought his kicking took a huge leap forward last week. Is he Justin Medlock?? Nope. But he's really improved this season no doubt.

Expectations need to be lowered significantly, there is no replacing Justin Medlock or Andrew Harris, they were H.O.F. level players.

The kicking game has certainly not been a point of weakness so far this season - happy with his performance so far - Kicking 88% through the uprights is more than good enough.

Leggs is not Medlock (yet) but he is good enough that we don't need to worry that he will cost us games.  The least of our concerns at the moment.

See if that holds true beyond 40 yds.  Paradis is a great FG kicker, but beyond 45 yds. he is risky money.

I don't agree.  Suddenly we're having Wade Miller having to come to the sideline to break up fights.  No thank you.

Awe is talented, no doubt but he would have to fit here. Bombers have picked up castoff/problem players before and rehabilitated them. He may be worth a look. I would draw the line at Brandon Banks, though. He conducts himself like a career moron.

Yup - just ask John Schneider and Buddy Leake.

Trying to think of one, especially in the O'Shea era anyway....who would fall into this category?

Bombers signed Awe for the non-2020 season, so he must have passed inspection at that time.

I think Osh would strap the pads on himself before bringing in someone that old, but I suppose you just never know...

Fair enough.  Just not sure how that guy is a FIFO guy, takes a lot of cheap shots.
