When do we fire Richie Hall?
Going to a man coverage D the majority of the time just doesn't make sense anymore. With the way the rules are you're setting yourself up for failure. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't think planning your scheme around man coverage is the way CFL D can be played with any long term success. And when the receivers are open the way they are that speaks to breakdowns more than scheme not working. So what needs to change? I want Hall gone, but I don't want the D to get worse. If he stays there's a chance at them getting better I suppose. But that could be said with anyone really. I'm glad I don't have to make that decision.

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
I think this is a solid move by the Lions honestly. Proven winner, knows the game etc. The power structure is weird though.

Did i say he was going to be an all star? Yes im sure every play that coates caught a ball he was the 5th option....Nichols looked at every rec and decided he was the only one open. That includes his deep ball. He must have a strong arm to hold the ball that long and still hit him in stride. So basically every one in the CFL is a journeyman than? Bowman, jackson, hazelton, sinopolli, williams, harris, flanders, bryant, etc etc etc etc (just include damn near every player) is a journeyman with that as the guideline.

I completely disagree with this statement. They aren't all stars. but they are solid. Didn't Coates have the 2nd most amount of catches in the play off game? Behind only Dressler. I thought I read that. And Journeymen??? Both have only every played with one other team.

CFLPA All-Star Team
I'm not sure I'd call Knox a bust, I think it was a combo of his lack of understanding the D and needing another CND starter. I'm rooting for Knox to have a break out year next year. That guy can bring the lumber!!!!!

CFLPA All-Star Team
I honestly think they were ready to move on from Hurl last year and try out Knox as the MLB, for whatever reason didn't have the ability to find a reliable back up, or another starting CND and brought hurl back in. Fully believe they settled for him and he wasn't what they planned to go with until late.

Only thing I've heard from him was after the game yesterday when he said we was going to take some time to think about it.

I'd like to see Ray go out on Top. I just think CGY is the better team.- In Case You Missed It.....Parts 1 & 2

Ike is the type of guy I'd like to see get some consideration as a DC. Get some new blood in these coaching roles.- Edmonton @ Calgary
Is JC sherrit back for EDM? Heard he was practicing with the team? Also again, (as the bombers learned last week) it's difficult to beat a team 3 times in a row in one season. The stamps haven't played this version of EDM. It's all up to CGY's D. I honestly have no doubts Edm D will limit CGY's O, even with a healthy Bo. Keep Edmonton under 20 points or it's a big L for little Dicky and the tramps.- Saskatchewan @ Toronto

It's hard to beat a team three times in a row in one season. TO is at home, KG is starting in a playoff game. (yes he won last week, against ott...great) I'm taking TO, SSk has been playing well. But TO is rested, and that Dline is going to create pressure. If I'm a TO db lining up against carter, I'm doing nothing but complimenting him. Don't let him get intense and really needing to prove something. Not sure why players do that against him. Getting him fired up is the worst thing you can do. Keep it light and all compliments = shitty day for Carter.- Talks with Mulumba
Not hearing back from the agent, likely has more to do with the fact his agent isn't legally allowed to operate in the CFL. Which was discovered after the initial talks started/after his agent ran his mouth. Also, during negotiations, you don't want the other side to think (even if it's a given) that you don't have other options. That's a really really bad tactic. Being a **** of an agent isn't great either though.- I like Matt Nichols
I just don't see him going from one of the highest paid players in the league. To back up money. WPG won't pay him. If he comes here it's for back up cash. He could even end up in TO. Decent situation there, and Ray has maybe 2 years left.- I like Matt Nichols
Can't see him choosing WPG when MTL and even BC/SSK have dicey QB situations at best.- I like Matt Nichols
Exactly, the players are there. There could always be upgrades, but it's not like he was working with a 2015 Rider defence. He had an all star at almost every position (before injuries started). Corner, HB, DL, Safety and LB (though not MLB or WIL)- Blue Bomber Free Agent List
If im bond. Im looking to get paid. NFL or CFL.- Finals Pick 'Ems
why can't I pick? It's only tuesday!- Blue Bomber Free Agent List
The list below is who I would like back, and who I think the bombers have a legit shot at getting back. The others I think are replaceable either via draft or FA or just don't think they are good enough. Bombers won't sign them all. Bryant Hardrick Neufeld foketi Spooner Dressler Feoli-gudino Flanders Randle Legget Westerman Knox Nevis Fogg Jones- I like Matt Nichols
I agree about Bond. I just honestly don't think he's back next year.- Upper Deck Concourse
I'm going to assume the weather played into having no TV's. They were there for all the other games. And I only buy beer from stand alone beer vendors. I also sit on the North side of the East upperdeck, but come up on the south side and both ends had vendors. - Grey Cup: Calgary vs Toronto
