September 21, 201410 yr comment_83894 Bowman dropped 4 catchable balls in this game, 2 that could have gone for TD's. I swear that's the Bowman who was with the Bombers.
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83896 Bowman became Bowman when it counted. Flashbacks of yesteryears. All of a sudden a crossover becomes less and less appealing. I'd still rather go through southern Ontario than Calgary given this teams history in Calgary and how solid the Stamps look.
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83899 Eastern sweep this weekend? Would be nice ... Doubt it. Calgary is going to have an easy time against Montreal.
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83900 I think Montreal will be a menace to Calgary, but once again Higgins and his inept offensive staff will blow it. Now Ottawa has the game in the bag as long as they blitz the life out of Sunseri, and if they start Joey Elliot
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83920 Eastern sweep this weekend? Would be nice ... Doubt it. Calgary is going to have an easy time against Montreal. The curse of the strip clubs may be in full effect.

Yup, and the Riders before them. He's is so physically gifted but mentally soft at times. Looked like he was turning over a new leaf this season.
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83925 Both those dlines dominate against so-so olines, pretty darn good game overall though and the result was good.
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83931 Seems like quite a few teams need to take a hard look at their OL this off-season.
September 21, 201410 yr comment_83933 Too many QB injuries because offences have not evolved the same way defences have to counter the speed of the rush.
September 22, 201410 yr comment_84171 Too many QB injuries because offences have not evolved the same way defences have to counter the speed of the rush. The extra designated imports this year have really improved the defences league wide.
September 22, 201410 yr comment_84253 It's the cyclical nature of the league. Offenses adjusted a while back but now defenses have caught up. Some one is going to adjust on offense again at some point and start the cycle over again. I mean hell you go back 10 years and teams were only just starting to use one db at linebacker, now you have basically 1 standard with 2 common.

I mean hell you go back 10 years and teams were only just starting to use one db at linebacker, now you have basically 1 standard with 2 common. Bang on.. When d-lines and LBs become huge again, scat backs and stokes/thigpen type players excel.. then it will shift again to smaller front sevens again and bruising RB/FB become all the rage.. The only real constant is you always want big, fast, speedy receivers and big, athletic, smart DBs..

September 22, 201410 yr comment_84360 Well, it seems that a west vs west Grey Cup won't be give me by any stretch. Wouldn't be surprised Tbh if this year is a rematch of last year.
September 22, 201410 yr comment_84362 Nothing is a given in football. If it were, why play the games?
September 22, 201410 yr comment_84378 Bowman has to be the most frustrating player in the entire league. I don't care how good he is, I couldn't handle having a player that inconsistent on my team.
September 23, 201410 yr comment_84425 Bowman has to be the most frustrating player in the entire league. I don't care how good he is, I couldn't handle having a player that inconsistent on my team. This is his curse. Tough to have a guy that could let you down at the most crucial part of the game. Super gifted player however.
September 23, 201410 yr comment_84442 Bowman has to be the most frustrating player in the entire league. I don't care how good he is, I couldn't handle having a player that inconsistent on my team. Which is precisely why he's on his what? 4th team?

Which is precisely why he's on his what? 4th team? This is yet another example (if you needed one) that talent alone isn't enough. Athletes need to have the instinct and the competitive attitude to be at the top of their games.

It's not an issue with instinct .. it's the mental part of his game that lacks .. and he's demonstrated that time and again with every team that he's been a part of ..
September 23, 201410 yr comment_84480 Doesn't matter how much he drops if he still does more than 99 percent of the receivers in this league can even dream of doing.
September 24, 201410 yr comment_84574 Doesn't matter how much he drops if he still does more than 99 percent of the receivers in this league can even dream of doing. It does matter. If the game is on the line will he make the catch? Reliability matters big time at all positions.
September 24, 201410 yr comment_84603 There are a lot of great "practice players" who look good until the game is on the line, and then they suddenly seize up or become invisible. I used to play golf with a guy who would smoke me every game until there was a bet on the line, and then his game would fall apart. We've had too few Milt Stegalls around who have the talent plus the killer mindset.
