September 18, 20177 yr comment_292000 Small sample size, but Stantos-Knox did more in one start than Kyle Knox has done since he took over for Wild. Will be disappointed to see Kyle Knox get the start assuming they are both healthy.

September 19, 20177 yr comment_292089 Anyone else Want to see Loffler move up to WILL??? I'm very interested how that would play out, then we could move Santos Knox to MIKE
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292092 20 hours ago, Noeller said: We should absolutely slaughter them on Friday, and in previous years I'd be worried about exactly what Mike was concerned about.....but this is an MOS team. They'll be ready... I don't really care if some fans want to call this an easy win... all I care about is how the team prepares for this game... and everything we've seen from the group the last couple years leads me to believe they will not be complacent against any opponent...
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292106 I want to see Brohm Lindley but ever vigilant that he could also be Rocky Lindley if we don't have the preparation.
September 19, 20177 yr Author comment_292107 The only way I'd see us losing this game is if Nichols and the offense threw an absolute stink bomb out there and allowed Lindley multiple opportunities to make a win happen. I just don't see that though with how I think we'll utilize Harris and Flanders to wear out the D as has been our MO. If we get this game going into a track meet, I do not believe Lindley has the experience nor the toolset to be able to keep it close. Edited September 19, 20177 yr by USABomberfan
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292120 The only way I see us losing the game is if we lose Nichols or Harris early on.
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292129 I think the record since Nichols, is 19 wins 6 losses, (not including playoff loss)
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292141 Got a feeling JFG has a good game they really targeted him last time they played Ottawa.
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292164 @DarrinBauming Just my gut — I think Westerman will start and play Friday night. #Bombers #RedBlacks
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292170 Ottawa's D is almost unrecognizable since last year... Would love to see a huge game from Harris - a bit worried that Lapo will get too cute in this one Should be a multiple interception game

LeFevour's supposedly our 3rd string. Davis #2. LeFevour's a glorified RB who can throw some, which is why he's our short yardage guy.

From what I've seen LeFevour has benefited from coming in off the bench and beating teams with his athleticism. Once teams prepare for him as the starter, he struggles to sustain it for multiple games. It seems like once he's expected to run the plays as called by the coach, his success drops off quickly. Just one mbrgs opinion, of course.

Just one mbrgs opinion, of course. Yes LeFevour's skills have always been to be the wildcard package QB. This is how he was used early on in Hamilton and it's how Lapolice is using him now. He's had his stints though of multiple starting games filling in for Collaros, playing for a brief period in MTL and then backing up Ray in Toronto. In all cases, he dug the teams in holes record-wise and has never been sought after as a prohibitive starter. I believe we have him here so he can do the dirty work instead of needing Davis to do it, but I think sooner or later Davis will have his chance to show whether he's a boom or bust.

September 19, 20177 yr Author comment_292279 I'm not taking the news of Westerman's season-ending status lightly or anything. I am concerned that down the stretch here such as the playoffs or Grey Cup should we get that far ... we could very well need him and be hurt without him. But for this game I think regardless of him being out Lindley is still going to struggle. Hopefully Chris Randle can bait him into some bad throws that go the distance the other way.
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292302 Still worry about back ups killing us. But im a lot more at ease then previously. I thought this would be a sleeper game. Now i fully expect us to win and control the game.

September 20, 20177 yr comment_292401 The bombers just tweeted that they release Thorpe from the practice roster.
September 20, 20177 yr comment_292479 Brief scrap at practice between Spooner and Ogopogo, apparently....(says Bauming).....Westerman very involved in practice today, in a jersey and gloves....

September 20, 20177 yr comment_292484 Bauming says nothing wildly different about the Bombers DL....same guys, minus Westerman. Thomas to "start" to fix the ratio......Jeffcoat and Ogopogo on either end, likely...
