Posted August 28, 20195 yr comment_421208 kind of surprising, but not really..... news just broke on TSN radio VIA Jeff Hamilton. He hasn't really seemed engaged this year. Maybe being under-utilized. But if he was becoming a problem in the room, whining about not getting the ball, I'm fine with this move! Get someone in there who actually wants to play! I'm sure the salary saving isn't going to hurt us either! Edited August 28, 20195 yr by trueBlue83
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421212 I can't say I'm very surprised. I keep waiting for him to have a breakout game but never has. He's dropped lots of passes and hasn't used his physicality the way he did in the past. Disappointed but it's time to promote some players from the NFL.
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421221 I think we were all (Bomber brass included) waiting for that breakout game... and 10 games into the season the team decided that it was not coming...
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421222 Very disappointing. Hopefully this means another receiver is on the way because it's not like the guys on the PR have shown much.

August 28, 20195 yr comment_421225 He was also very clearly not a fit with what we were trying to do.

August 28, 20195 yr comment_421228 This is really bad timing, maybe related to vet. cut down day? Would have been nice to get the back to back with Regina out of the way first.
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421229 Well....Bailey did look like our best most polished guy in camp...silky smooth great route runner and fast with ball in his mitts..and thick strong body type...and biding his time on the P.R working hard...so let's see him get the chance now...he'd be another unknown for the Sask defense to contend with...
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421232 The Bombers may have a Neg list guy on the radar, not just former CFLers
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421233 Wow. Big splash signing, gets hurt, does nothing, gets hurt, gets stabbed, does nothing. What a bust.
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421235 I mean... 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗮𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 @DarrinBauming After missing two stretches of time due to injury, Chris Matthews made 12 catches on 23 targets for 180 yards and a touchdown in the six games he suited up for this season.
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421236 'Chris Matthews is a beast. Pretty hard for any receiver to flourish in this offence. This one might come back to haunt them.' Doug Brown Twitter
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421237 Doug isn’t wrong but Matthews was just a guy getting paid to be more than that.

The only guy I know who always wants to talk about the Jets on chat when the Bombers are playing when no one wants to. Like who gives a **** about the Jets when the Bombers are playing? Just wanna say called it and people( @rebusrankin @SpeedFlex27 @Noeller) owe me scalps Having said that I think he was our best receiver ATM and this comes out of no where and makes no sense. The one thing I know that must be true is that he did not test positive for steroids Edited August 28, 20195 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421243 KINDA agree with Brown...And yes Adams flourished...but he also gets a tonne of targets
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421244 He wasn’t making the kind of catches he was being paid to make. Darvin was practicing last week.
August 28, 20195 yr comment_421245 Sometimes I wonder how other teams can trade their scraps and we cant find partners for a good talent. #SMH Should have just traded him for a bag of balls. Edited August 28, 20195 yr by M.O.A.B.
