https://www.cfl.ca/2018/11/16/confident-matthews-worried-grinch-bomber-d/ Just keep on underestimating this team. That D is playing some damned good football the back half of this year. Ask the Riders how bad mouthing the Bombers OL went for them. I love being the underdog.

Thompkins in my eyes is a far better receiver but honestly they didn't even throw to him last game, this teams passing attack is always going to run through the 4 of Dressler, Adams, Demski and Wolitarsky so if it helps the return game it's not a huge deal. Unless someone gets hurt in game, but in that case we might be screwed either way. This team's offense really relies on Harris to start it off so let's just get the OL to dominate again and let Harris run all over the field.

Honestly I'd take Rod Black over Glen Suitor. Suitor is just the worst. Black at least is monotone enough to tune out.

There will never be a great salary structure from top to bottom in the CFL because of how much more valuable quarterbacks and national players are. Can find hundreds of capable american players at other positions so the value just isn't there. You can bump up the minimum salary but the guys who are the rarest will always make significantly more.

Noeller was taking care of the tickets, I dunno where we are but we'll be there. let's give us a reason to drink celebratory beers rather than drowning our sorrows... again.

yeah this conversation doesn't make you all look like creepy old men in the least...

forgetting of course that Collaros was absolute ass against the Bombers this year. Basically the only way they were beating the Bombers if if the Bombers got sloppy with the ball like they did Labour day and Banjo Bowl. Since that time though Nichols got his **** figured out and has avoided the turnovers, so how were the Riders going to win without scores from the D or STs? We all tried to warn them that relying on your defense to score wasn't conducive to long term success but they just didn't listen.

Immediate mental image of the patented Trump arms crossed with a big ol' pout on the lips when Acosta asks a question.

there were a few times when there was a pile at the end of the play and the Bombers OL alll threw someone out, I'd guess it was one of those situations.

The Stamps D really fell off a bit at the end of the season, not sure why that was, but here's hoping the bye week didn't let them get back into the groove. Would love to see a lethargic group out there.

They have to support CNN cause they don't want precedent set which can be used against them.

when a guy avoids reality and only pays attention to his cheer leaders it gets ugly when reality rears back and slaps you in the face. Just wait until the Democrats actually start work in congress and dig up all of his ****. He will have a meltdown.

This past Sunday obviously cause we sent em home crying. Hope they enjoy their offseason very much.

I believe Mosca was the connection there.

from your lips to god's ears.

Just do what we did last time we faced calgary.

well colour me surprised. ******* like that I was sure would protect himself.

Does that include Jones himself or did he just make everyone else take a cut?

You clearly are under estimating the Rider fans base and it's ability to blow smoke up their own asses. No matter who they get in the offseason they will have the best qb situation going and perhaps can trade their backup or even 3rd stringer for a couple Canadian starters.

I can see Montreal at least jumping on either Collaros or Lulay to start, perhaps even Toronto if Ray calls it a career. Hell BC too might need one of them to start. If the Esks lose Reilly it's either Glenn or one of those guys. Quarterback is not a strong point in the CFL right now,

Didn't the Bombers wind up benching him a bunch cause he was undisciplined against the run? Seems to me the Bombers put up a hell of a lot of yards on the ground so I guess there's something to that.

Look around the league at the quality of backup qbs, and even starters in some places... you think those guys won't get a chance even being as broken as they are?

Not the Riders, their fans. Honestly I don't give a **** about the team except that I like watching them lose because I know it kicks the ant hill over there and causes their annoying fans to scurry about in a panic.

why are we so blessed?

The Bombers D won't get the credit they deserve, too many years of soft coverage people won't look at what they're actually doing this season.
