OK hold on

OK cite the study that was done here, regarding Willy. That's what I mean. Certainly the ability to lead is a real thing, but no one can tell that by watching a football team play on TV. Or seeing them play live, for that matter. All we know is that the entire team is playing better now. And that's not all on the quarterback. Tell me the defence is playing better because they believe in Nichols and you'll get a big eye roll from me.

How bout the Vegas Vaudevillians

Wins aren't a QB stat

Tough to say. I do like BLM as well. But he plays on a far better team too.

How childish. What a joke of an organization.

Collaros is the best QB in the league. Gonna be tough to beat him.

That's a little too "fluffy" for me. Ability to lead and win, confidence, spark, belief..... smells like something a newspaper reporter would write. Willy had issues but I don't think it had anything to do with those nebulous concepts.

I think you meant to put this link: http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/video/the-labour-day-classic-lived-up-to-its-name~943967

Very soft call to take away such a critical interception but there was some contact. I'd be pissed if the same play had gone against the Bombers and lost us the game. But the Riders have so many more problems than one bad call. Their defence and special teams are wildly inconsistent and Chris Jones makes bizarre in-game and roster decisions pretty regularly. I just saw that they don't have their 3rd or 4th round pick next year either. I don't know how they are planning on improving their Canadian situation. Without Darian Durant that team wouldn't even be competing in games but he can't carry the whole team to wins himself.

The league is making a conscious effort to watch for that penalty, they have been all year. I guess Bond just gets his hands up high a little too frequently. He basically mauls whoever is in front of him.

Let's keep it rolling!!

Apparently it was enough

One point wouldn't have saved them the game

Happy Honker to the ref?

Do you have any diagrams or charts? This doesn't add up at all

How do you go up to two of your best veteran players and ask them to restructure when everyone knows the issue is Willy making too much money? I don't know about that one. No no it's better not to speculate I think.

Sam Scott has been in the CFL for like 5 years and played maybe 10 games. How does he keep getting paid

yogi what in the blue hell are you talking about

Interesting... what does it mean?? Extension? Renegotiation? Would be funny if instead of renegotiating Willy's deal, they restructured our star left tackle and kicker. Seems unlikely though.

Sometimes guys get comfortable and stop producing (Davis), and the guys behind them keep working hard and getting better (Mayo, Sheppard). Not sure that's an indictment of the talent evaluation.

I think it's pretty clear at this point that you can't really trust anything MOS says when it comes to injuries

Love Nik Lewis. Not sure the Bombers have room for him right now unfortunately. As the year wears on and the Als fall further out of it, I'm sure he could be had for a late draft pick (6th?) plus neg list player or something like that.

Big bad Brandon. Might suit up this week if Thomas can't go

Interesting that if Willy had started every game, he would make 311k, exactly 100k less than what Penton reported. What are we missing here?
