Obviously it's a team game and lots went into the past two weeks, but the difference between the teams was that we spotted them a Matt Nichols.

Rider fans were cheering Matt Nichols and when he threw INTs were then turning to Bomber fans in the stands looking for high fives. What a horrible experience for Bomber fans. No wonder they're pissed.

TSN panel discussed the Bomber QB situation........Milt turtled with “I got nothing”....pretty funny.

Our coaches did. Most fans wanted Streveler to start.

Trying to think of an area Sask does not beat us in. Anyone? Anyone? Beuller?

Looked like Milt was going to fight Sanchez after he got out of his seat with Sanchez yelling, "It's always about you! It's always about you!!"

Man what it would be to have this community together having these discussions over some beer (wine in my case). Misery would love some company. I wonder if certain personalities here would be the same in person as they demonstrate online.

Great call out by Sanchez....I guy who doen’t hesitate to tell it like it is....great add to the panel.

Is it so bad that we no longer get odds and sods ?

Hey, I know we’re officially only allowed on this board to criticize Nichols, O’Shea, Hall or Lapo ... but, anyone else think Bighill should maybe be making more big plays? Eguavoen was an absolute beast for SK. Just wondering 

Everything about this game made no sense. The play in this game was undisciplined with ridiculous outcomes. There was times this game felt like it was in the Twighlight Zone. I’ve never seen such an unorthodox combat between the Bombers and the Riders like we did today. 

I don’t like the name Banjo Bowl as it dissrespects everyone involved. Yet this is the1st time the name of the game matched the play of the game. 

I felt that even the officiating was way off today for both teams. 

I’m not sure where either team goes from here. What’s going to happen behind the Bombers centre going forward? How can the Riders continue kicking field goals and relying on their defence.  

It is a very weird year in the West

It's easy to talk tough behind a keyboard but some of us are big, mature men who, when in the presence of others, are referred to as "sir". 🙂

Well, it's too bad you don't like the name. Oh well.

Loved his fumble recovery. I dunno, a lot of it might be the scheme. I was far more disappointed with Loffler today.

Loffler has become the invisible man

Sanchez played against Stegall. There could be some animosity still remaining between the two left over.

I'd agree. I think him and Milt have a genuine hate on for each other which makes it awesome to watch.

True. And I agree Loffler has not been the player we once knew. I love Bighill, but my expectations for him are difference maker, big play maker every single game. He’s that talented. He’s not an A gap filler like Hurl.

I'm amazed Jim Barker & Matt Dunigan get along considering the Stamps fired Barker & replaced him with Dunigan. It was a nasty firing 2 days before Christmas 2003. 

Our DE are terrible, especially Rho, that guy is useless as they come. The new guy in the middle Bryant looks pretty good so it won't be long till he's replaced.

The changes in the rules has completely taken Loffler out of the game. 

The smell of manure was wafting strongly into the stadium grandstands today, which appropriately added to the overall ambience. At first we thought it was just the Sask fans who brought it with them but no, it was permeating around the Bombers. One highlight was that some of the Jets were there: Nik Ehlers, Adam Lowry and Andrew Copp. After Nichols threw his second I/C (or was it his fifth?) a few of my seatmates were calling for Copp to go in as QB - apparently he was a hell of a high school quarterback at Michigan. It was fun to see Ehlers throwing those little souvenir smurf footballs into the stands to fans however. I guess at $6M/year he earns more than the entire Blue Bombers roster

Oh  man wasn't it Dirty Sanchez with a brutal blindside hit on Stegall at one point? I'd be surprised if Stegall and Sanchez like each other at all.

Loffler isn't fast enough for todays safety, he needs to be a linebacker where he can whack away at them.

Fogg would be a good safety, lots of speed and good hands.
