Bombers at Lions- very early talk
I don't hate this take... but winning the division and getting the bye is ALWAYS the preferred option... IMO, this is the worst case scenario and still provides a reasonably good path to the GC

CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
When I heard the Green Day news... I immediately thought that is a huge get for the CFL... they're not the at top of the rock charts right now... but they are still one of the biggest rock bands in the world over the last 30 years... well done CFL... I hope we get something even close to that good for 2025...

Argos at Bombers GDT
I don't know specifically what they were scheming... but if the defensive game plan wasn't heavily revolved round "let's stop Oliveira"... then I don't know what your D coaches were doing all week
-
Argos at Bombers GDT
I actually agree with a lot of what you said here… but this idea that the argos didn’t “scheme for Oliveira” is total BS… you think the team just rolled over and let him run for 160+?… you’re just trying to make excuses because the run defense had no answer for the top back in the league

Saturday Football: Als vs RBs // Ham vs Cgy
Huff was also the HC in 2014

Saturday Football: Als vs RBs // Ham vs Cgy
I think Dickensen has only won one… Huff was the head coach in 08

Argos at Bombers, The Big One
no matter what happens tonight... Bombers still control their fate... 3-1 in the last 4 (as long as the 1 isn't against BC) is good for first... that said, starting with a win tonight would be preferred

Argos at Bombers, The Big One
don't get me wrong... I have the same negative feelings you do... all the time... but I'm trying to stay positive as best I can!

Argos at Bombers, The Big One
How about this... without trying to rile up the masses too much... Keep Haba on and dress Burtenshaw... scratch Jackson and Bennet... seems like a net positive to me counter point... Bombers haven't lost coming out of a bye in like 3 years... Bomber haven't lost back-to-back games since (I'm guessing) 2019

Bombers at Ticats early chat
He has 3 sacks in four games... so I'm sure it can't be that I know that everyone think O'Shea is officially tied to Jackson... but if Jeffcoat was totally healthy and we "had to" roster Haba... I'm sure it would be (Damien) Jackson coming off
-
Bombers at Ticats early chat
I still think getting a DE in the line up for Jackson would be very beneficial to the D... but after a 45 point blow out... chances are we'll see no changes

Riders at Bombers -BANJO BOWL 2023 GTD-
I actually noticed when re-watching the game that Suitor mentions the Riders are last in the league in point allowed... somewhere around 27-28 points per game allowed... and that was BEFORE we hung 51 on them...

CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Ballsy was suspiciously quiet during and after the game last weekend... can't imagine why... I guess he was still busy losing his mind about how Jeffcoat didn't get suspended for a hit on Brandon Bridge 6 years ago...
-
Bombers at Ticats early chat
I mean... we did just put up 51 against the best defense in the league...

Super Saturday Als vs Argos GDT
I believe Mtl is now 0-6 vs Wpg, BC and Tor and 6-0 against anyone else
-
CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
based specifically on the 2022 season... Playing in Hamilton before a bye is not necessarily going to be an easy win for the Blue and Gold

3 stars plus hh banjo bowl blow out
Is it just me or does Brady seem like he’s running faster over the past few weeks… he’s always had the power but seemed to lack speed in the open field… recently he seems to be outrunning more guys
-
Riders at Bombers -BANJO BOWL 2023 GTD-
Had a laugh about that… this dude disappeared real quick 🤣 3-2 down the stretch (as long as one win is against BC) guarantees first in the west… and that’s assuming BC goes 5-1

Banjo Bowl early thread
don't need to be dressed to do that... there was a receiver last year (name slipping my mind... Tavaris Harrison??) who DI'd for two consecutive games and I don't think he played a single snap in any phase of the game I can't help but imagine what a 4th quarter Jeffcoat would look like when he's only played 60% of the snaps up to that point
-
Banjo Bowl early thread
If he wasn't ready he would be staying on the IR... even just for 1-game... moving him to the PR says he's healthy but they aren't rostering him... I've said it before, I don't hate the roster decisions as much as others... but I absolutely cannot understand why we are not using more DL... our defense has been at it's best when we do that...
-
Banjo Bowl early thread
I agree... I think if the game was out of hand, either way... the response would've been much different
-
Banjo Bowl early thread
yeah, I know... I was poking fun at a couple of brilliant takes calling the Bombers "pansies" or "wusses" because no one took a stupid retaliation penalty
-
Banjo Bowl early thread
yeah but just think of how manly some posters would view him 😁

Banjo Bowl early thread
I do agree with most of what you're saying... but a lot of your complaints here are future considerations, not current roster composition... Let's say the team made only one move, took out Jackson and played another DL... either Fox or Garbutt while Haba is injured... would you agree that would be enough to make this roster much better... I think the reason they didn't look for a replacement KR is because Grant is coming back this year... so they decided to use stop-gap in house options rather than bring in a bunch of new guys If Hansen, Haba, and Grant are all ready to go... do you think we see them all this weekend? I sure hope so
