Elks really need to find a QB

Not sure they have the overall tools on O

Noticed Cole just spying Corny the last drive. Maybe they learned a lesson finally on qbs that can run. 

[MOBomberFan]

I'll take a 2 score win that featured our longest drive of the season

[Goalie]

Tsn says no more for you 

[do or die]

Would like to see more than 20 minutes of quality football, though......

[Captain Blue]

Game was closer than expected for a while but a 14 point win despite spending the first half removing various toes is fine with me. OL looked better, we will see if there are any future changes as Collaros looked frustrated at times. 

[MOBomberFan]

We've celebrated so many ugly wins here and elsewhere, this wasn't even that ugly, its a 7/10 in the dark after 4 1919's, I'm taking it home

[blue85gold]

Thank god this game ended as it should. Uglier than it needed to be but no doubt in the end. 
 

Now let’s get Kolo out for Eli.
Hope Schoen isn’t hurt bad.

Lawler back has been dope.

5-2 looks better than 4-3.  I really hope the bye week refocuses this team and then we make some much needed changes on the roster.  BC is coming up... Little worried about them schooling us again

[Geebrr]

It looked like Cole was getting reps, good to see.

The offence needs to show up at the beginning of games - or at all if you look at last week and BC.

Bye week should bring some changes to both play calling and roster. 
 

5-2 and being unhappy about it is still pretty enjoyable.

They need a better line but they have a good rb and a couple of receivers

[bustamente]

Going into the bye with a win is never a bad thing.

[Nolby]

It was good to get the win but they need to do some serious tinkering of that Oline on this bye week.

They do not. And also, still starting guys like Konar on D.

[Booch]

Uglier than should have been...but a win is a win...well needed bye... hopefully some tweaks occur

If we have Kramdi and Briggs taking regular reps we will get burned bad by BC

Hoping to see a Wilson..Biggie..Parker trio...even Cole there after break with Rose on the corner...and a DE added...if not Lemon then bring back Sterling as he would need minimal prep

I think if ELI is inserted...things will look a lot better

[Goalie]

Wonder if Hamilton would do Bennett for kongbo or the Winnipeg kid they got cuz having atleast a guy who can play pro football if they Insist on dressing 6 DL only would be helpful.  Walker has been a nice surprise tho. 

OL I mean replace kolo with Eli 

Pretty simple at this point. B4 Zach gets hurt 

Prukop should be let go. 

Bennett and prukop to Hamilton for kongbo 

I wonder if Parker would be a good Darby or kramdi replacement.  

Mauro should never start again. 

Cole looked good in his reps 

Hope Miller Hansen and Wilson and gretel and whoever else rose is healthy after the bye  

Bring in some DT on the pr. Dress 7 on the game day roster. Our DL is best when fresh. 

Bring in some lbs and a new 3rd string qb

As much as I would like a blowout against a bottom feeder like the Elks, we have to remember the opposition are also pros who in all probability get a little more jacked when they play against a top tier team like the Bombers.  They have their pride & are not going to roll over & give the Bombers a win that easily.

[Mark H.]

OL and DL stepped up their game in the second half.  Which resulted in a win, as it usually does.

[Goalie]

Bombers very Jets like today. They showed up for 20 minutes

Schoen must be hurt.

I know he took a pretty good pop during the game.  I thought it was Lawler's presence that maybe Zach didn't look to him all that often.

[Goalie]

Schoen appeared to be open also on the demski TD

Was Lawler 

[rebusrankin]

We won. That is all that matters.

[Noeller]

That was worse than ugly.... Hideous? As Matty Geebs said, it's a win but I'm not ******* happy about it. Any team besides the LOLks beats us tonight. That first quarter was basically an embarrassment. Remember the first two games of the year and how our O looked?? What the **** happened from then to now?
