June 20, 201510 yr comment_126925 Westerman was getting close a few times, but wasn't getting the jump that I'm sure we will see after a couple weeks. I am very excited to see him mid season
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126932 Brohm should get cut IMHO, but I am fearful that they will cut Marve. #
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126933 Anyone watch Westerman last night? I don't remember hearing his name and he didn't get any tackles. Other than that, how'd he do. Same question for Waggenor. Looks like he got a tackle, but I didn't hear his name mentioned. I watched Westerman pretty close. He was close couple times and I thought he got held at least once. But Collaros was really dealing and the ball was gone pretty quick.

Yeah but they seem to like Brohm for some reason (did jack in this last game) and left all the backups in for Marve who still showed more in 6 min than all the other qbs combined but that doesn't seem to matter he may still be gone.We will see.
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126943 I said it last year, and I'll say it again now - I think Marve is our next QB. I know we are committed to Willy, and Willy most likely will be. This is just me, and what I see. Willy doesn't seem to have that 'internal clock' to tell him when to throw. I still remember last year after the first 6 games how he really started struggling but they left him in until he physically couldn't compete. In comes Brohm, then Marve, and though they didn't blow the doors off - same personal, same schemes, they did ok - much better than a battered and shell shocked Willy. I'm going for him but its' tough. Looks like Lulay is back, no way no how can Wpg compete with the Eskimos or the Stamps, and the Riders should be at least as good as the bombers (most likely a lot better). Could be another long season here but we'll see - this is the CFL and the worst team in the league prior to Labour Day could be in the Grey Cup at season's end. That's what I like best about the CFL - half or more of the roster will be switched out by season's end

June 20, 201510 yr comment_126948 I watched Westerman too and he was a non factor. Looked slow too, despite what MOS says.

I think this season the Bombers will maintain the status quo at QB, Willy, Brohm, Marve because that's what Marcel and Mike decided in the off-season. The Bombers had an opportunity to divest themselves of Brohm in the off-season and yet they actively pursued him. If Portis doesn't accept another year on the PR he will be gone and maybe Yantz can fill that position while they search for the "next up". If Willy is the designated starter for the next 4-6 years many QB's will come and go during that time, including the 3 current wannabees. Getting excited about the future prospects of the underlings as more than temp. fill ins is rather pointless as long as the Bombers are heavily invested in Willy, both Marcel's and O'Shea's careers are riding on his back.
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126953 @SUNMitchell: Sounds like DB Lin-J Shell and DT Eric Taylor have been cut by the Stamps, per sources. #CFL
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126965 @PentonKirk: No surprise, but a source says the #Bombers have released WR Jordan Reaves. He's gotta be headed to the practice roster.
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126967 I wouldn't be surprised to see Brohm, and Veltung gone. Well to your dismay "Canuck" Veltung is in and Gordon (the lightning fast WR is a practice squadder! Please tell me why Veltung received no and I mean no love from you guys. I told you he ran a 4.46 and gordon a 4.68... Geez I don't know but I think... well what does it matter - Justin Veltung is a starter and majority of you Canadians gave him no chance. May a crazed holy man set fire to your nose hairs!
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126970 I am trying to recall even remotely thinking that Veltung had no chance. Nope. Never did.
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126980 @PentonKirk: No surprise, but a source says the #Bombers have released WR Jordan Reaves. He's gotta be headed to the practice roster. Wicek is tweeting no PR for Reaves.
June 20, 201510 yr comment_126981 weird i thought they were all high on his progress considering how long he'd been out of football, and even last night I thought that was a pretty nice catch even if just short of the first down from Marve as he was being drilled out of bounds, figured PR would have been near certain
June 21, 201510 yr comment_126984 MorningBigBlue @MorningBigBlue More cuts coming out: R Ja-mes Logan, DB Dominique Franks ... Worth noting: it doesn't look like Jordan Yantz got cut (yet) MorningBigBlue @MorningBigBlue Notable cuts: DB Shaq Richardson, QB Josh Portis, DL Ivan Brown, P Anthony Santella
June 21, 201510 yr comment_126986 Looking at the roster I think we need to pick up another RB. What about that Tosten guy? He seemed pretty decent.
June 21, 201510 yr comment_126988 The roster on bluebombers.com is changing non-stop at the moment so I think any cuts I tweeted out may be premature. Darren Cameron said the site is having issues at the moment.
June 21, 201510 yr comment_126991 Patrick Neufeld on the 6 game IR. I don't think I'll ever see him play another game as a WBB. Taman got us this time.
