July 24, 20177 yr comment_278592 Well for what it's worth in only got about a paragraph deep in that and called er a day. I know that it missed the point tho. Good coaches don't throw anyone under the bus publicly. You rage in private as often as necessary.
July 24, 20177 yr comment_278599 I happen to know for a fact that the entire super secret "Plant a Pollyanna" fund is tied up in Aardvaark at TEP.
July 24, 20177 yr comment_278608 and as if Noeller gets the reputation as Mr. Sunshine. Guy gets as negative as anyone, difference is he doesn't get caught up in the knee jerk reactions like some people do.

July 24, 20177 yr comment_278619 The best way to make your life last longer is to spend your time doing things you don't enjoy. (might be a thought from Steve Wright ) Last year the Bombers had a receiver who was a good downfield blocker. They let him go. Shepherd maybe? I don't think the current group is excelling at this aspect of the game. I think the Bombers, if the QB can pull himself together, can probably beat any of the other teams. Matt can, he's done it before. I suspect he's putting a lot of pressure on himself. Got to R.E L.A.X. Edited July 24, 20177 yr by Mark F

I'm starting to get nervous about things in Bomber land. It's starting to feel like not only will we not improve on last year's 11-7 record and a playoff appearance, but 9-9 or worse and a playoff miss is more likely. Sure hope I'm wrong.

I will agree that Nichols has to get better. He's not the Nichols of last year. We also have to start establishing a run game. Six carries for Harris is ridiculous. I am no OC guy, but I do know that establishing the run pays big dividends in the 4th quarter with a tired Defence.

Actually I have no faith in the current OC and establishing a run game sounds good to me so the job is yours. :-)

The team is further ahead of where they were last year at this same point in the season so why all the doom and gloom? The secondary is going to get healthier, the linebackers are going to get healthier, why all the hand wringing over a loss to BC and Calgary? Oh right, cause some people just like to get caught up in the negativity.

The Bombers were worse off at this point last season (1-4) than they are right now (2-2) and could easily be 3-1 if not for two costly mistakes late in the game on Friday. There's nothing to suggest they won't improve after 4 games.

If it was 3rd, I would understand some serious sour grapes... if anything BC fans should be happy they gave it to us on 1st rather than taking 3 tries... that gave them the time needed to make the come back

Your team got the benefit on some questionable calls as well. It was a really good game. It's too bad for us our team decided to give it away with a string of stupidity and mistakes.

There's nothing to suggest they won't improve after 4 games. True. And as Atomic suggested, a winning streak is always possible too, especially looking at the schedule for the next while. I'm not feeling gloomy about the loss so much as the way we lost/lose. Frittering away leads, not playing 60 minutes, questionable coaching and schemes, etc.

July 24, 20177 yr comment_278690 Remember when we were 1-4 year and finished 11-7. Remember that year we went to the Grey Cup against B.C and they won? Yeah they started that season 0-5. We lost a game by a hair to one of the best teams in the league and everyone is so doom and gloom. Is there areas to improve on? Absolutely. Do our best players need to play better? 100 percent. But all this negative attitude after four games is a bit much. After years of terrible starts, a revolving door of QB's, and head coaches, I'm glad we have a stable core that can compete day in and day out.

No way, no how.

The RTP call on Lulay after the pick was a garbage call. It was simply a football play. They say it was late, but there's no way a lineman call pull up once he has started the motion to tackle. Terrible call.
