FTFY...the 1st half had every O player that could touch the ball, touch the ball. 2nd half they folded.

Speed, high point/body control/attacking the ball/pure size. We have the rec cor to go down field. ******* force it!!! Nichols was ****. Lapo was ****, though at least he actually stayed with the one part of the O that is working. Speaking of Harris, ball security is now an issue. Matthews was ****. Lucky was **** Bighill needs to ******* show up I saw this coming today, but giving up a 20 point lead is hard to watch. These guys better stop believing the hype. 5-5 can come real quick.

You don't find out if you're the best by playing the worst.

It's mostly because regardless of facts or others consistently proving you wrong, you hold on to those opinions. Maybe a better term would be stubborn.

I believe the MR and BLM contracts won't be the norm going forward for QBs. CGY has been able to make a go of it so far, we will see what happens come the 2nd half. And BC is struggling mostly due to MR contract (my opinion anyway).

Agreed, Argos have some talent on both sides of the ball. Just haven't been able to put it together at all...that and their coaches have been total dipshits the entire year.

Should also be noted, that Nichols did that exact thing last year vs CGY....so they are basically just wrong. He hasn't done it this year, but he only needed to once (Even though the run game was working it was just ignored for some odd reason) but had a few of his big time receivers out due to injury. So while I think you're just a troll Northernskunk, you're also horribly wrong in this case along with Burris and Stegall. This basically just comes down to people wanting Nichols to do something, just for shits and giggles. If there's no need, there's no need.

I don't think this game goes the same way the last Argo game went. I see the Argos making a better game of it. Bombers win, maybe by only 1 or 2 scores though. I also don't buy into the "Bombers better win by 1000 or else!" narrative. That's for people who have never played the game.

Agreed. Adams isn't built for the slot. He has a hard enough time staying healthy playing WR. Would love to see what Woli could do closer to the ball.

Anyone wanna copy the article? I don't wanna subscribe. lol

I'll watch the NFL, but I don't follow it too closely. Fills the need for football when the CFL is done. I've been a cowboys fan for as long as I can remember. Started back in the early 90's...no not because they were the team to beat back then, as I wasn't old enough to really understand that. My Grandma bought two hats while in the states, my brother got one. I got the other...just so happened to be a Cowboys hat.

But wasn't Collaros the answer? Remember Rods claim of an 18-0 season if they signed him? lol Also someone needs to seriously tell this guy to hang em up. He just went from one suspect Oline to a team with a absolutely horrible Oline....he won't finish the year.

Who is the odd man out?

Yes the reciever did what he was supposed to do. I'm not arguing that. People are saying that was a well thrown ball, I dont think it was. I'd be willing to bet that Nichols doesnt either. I'm not saying every ball needs to be perfect. I'm not saying Nichols sucks because of that ball. I'm not saying demski should have done more. Im only saying, that ball was under thrown, hence not a well thrown ball. People can keep arguing but the proof is in the pudding. For an example of what I think a well thrown, or even perfectly thrown ball is....see Demskis two other deep TD passes from earlier this year.

My point is, he only hit his shoulder because Demski essentially laid down on his back. The ball was very much under thrown.

No, if it was even a remotely well thrown ball, Demski would not have had to basically stop and lay backwards in order to even have a shot at it. He had a step on the coverage and the ball should have hit him in stride. I'm not saying he shouldn't have caught it, cause he had a shot. But I don't consider that ball to be well thrown at all.

I'm not sure I'd call that pass "perfect". Catchable, maybe...but certainly not perfect.

I hope the riders just keep looking better and better. Will make it all the sweeter when the bombers ******* crush their delusion of a playoff berth/win.

An argument could be made that he did.

Kind of off topic, but I noticed this past week during the TO and Edm game when they were listing longest Losing streaks by a Head Coach that Bud Grant was near the top of the list. Something like 13 in a row I think. Goes to show you that even the greats struggle.

This is a fair point. But the lack of running was still annoying.

Lapo does this often. Like at least once a year. Where he seems to think "(Insert team that's bad against the run) is expecting us to run it down their throats, soooo we'll come out throwing!!" There was a home game against BC a few years ago were something similar happened. BC was awful (surprise surprise!) against the run, it was late in the year and a cold day. Bombers being the hard nosed team they were didn't run the ball until 2nd ******* quarter (or at least well into the game). The people around me were cheering and high fiving me after the 1st run cause I was screaming at Lapo to run the ball. BC was a soft indoor team that couldnt stop the run, playing in the cold!!! ******* run it!!! God, still pisses me off lol.

Nichols was playing against a solid Defence and the wind. He was the only qb on the field. Our Defence played very well against a back up qb. The two are related, however not in the sense that it was QB vs QB. I've never understood that comparison.

Lol if the bombers only win by 1 point, will they receive any less points in the standings? If they lose, will they be eliminated from playoffs?

I give the Defense credit, but would be lying to myself if I ignored the flat out horrible throws to open receivers.
