First maybe two seasons he was way more aggressive with taking the ball, fakes etc. back then it seemed like we needed every single drive and chance to win games. Since 19 gc, that hasn’t been the case and he’s gotten more and more conservative. For me personally, you gotta be in extremely windy conditions, or windy plus muddy/wet/cold, to give up a drive. Choosing the wind doesn’t give you any extra time with or against the wind, it just ensures that you have it in the direction you want in the 4th. The actual advantage is pretty slight and just makes closing out games easier. But you shouldn’t get beaten by factors like the weather if you are well coached team. Also, the wind is not a simple advantage or disadvantage. It’s easier to kick longer with the wind, but you lose accuracy. Kicking with the wind is an advantage, but throwing with the wind is a disadvantage. Generally offences and QBs do better throwing into the wind than with it. Because it doesn’t mess with your accuracy as much, and it’s easier to throw harder into the wind than to take some thing off with the wind and retain a high level of touch on throws.

1. Zach. Over 300 yards and a rushing TD. He missed 5 passes all game really 2. Demski. He was a GTD and really was tremendous. 3. Kramdi. Just liked the effort and caused a fumble. Almost 2 even. HH. Peterson in the 4th.

who is JBR and what was the spice?...do tell lol I'll say it again too...our punter is garbage...and will cost us...he alredy does but we sneaking by I dont care at times what his net is...when he cant put it as deep as others and it gains teams valuable field position...Plus he has zero ability to kick us out of trouble...none at all....we lucky we have a staunch defence cause it glosses over his shittyness....worst in league bar none you forgot stupid in front of the POS

As long as I can remember, if O'Shea feels there is any advantage to taking the wind he will take it given the chance. The fact that almost all the points in the game were scored going to the south end zone makes me think there was some advantage there.

TSN needs to do something, something in the panel is off. I think Kate is good at speaking and her presence, but the "character" they have her doing isn't working with the viewers. I also feel Henoc has great energy but is not a clear, polished speaker.....he is mumbly, I think he has been poorly cast, he can add something to the panel, but not as a mainstay IMO.

Caleb Evans

A W....that's the most important...overall need to clean some stuff up, our 3rd quarter was possible the worst quarter we played so far this year....but we got the W and that's the most important.

No no. The refs always favor the bombers though Just ask @lyin' guy and RF.com "The bombers only had like 3 calls against them!!!!!" ITs A CoNsPiRaCy for the bombers!!! Willy J held 10 times, elks receiver trips over his own feet and Holm gets phantom PI: *crickets*

That may have been Collaros' best game in almost 2 years. He was hitting guys in stride all game long. Only 2 really bad decisions (that he got away with). Thought he was lights out all night long. Run blocking and Peterson need to ramp it up in the first half moving forward. Not a lot of space to move and Peterson doesn't seem to be running with power to start games. Someone has to explain to me why MOS decided to kick off in the 2nd half. I'm still angry about that. I just don't understand the choice given the options/potential outcomes. One of the worst in game calls he's made in his time here imo.

In the stadium the hang time on Grace's kicks were apparent. Such an advantage.

I feel like Kate would do better if she was just herself instead of this character that she and/or TSN thinks she should play.

3-0 overall, 3-0 versus the West. Its all coming up, Blue Bombers.

We'll never sign Bennett, Be careful what you wish for. We all know Chevy's answer to letting Ehler's go will a fourth line free agent winger signing.

Came to the conclusion last night that it's Davis Sanchez that is bringing down the discussion on the panel this season. His takes are bland & uninteresting. He just seems to be filling in time going thru the motions as a panelist. Sanchez adds nothing to the discussion. Absolutely no chemistry at all with Muamba & Bierness which leads to her trying even harder to be funny if that is to be believed. It only makes things worse. There was more chemistry between Dave Naylor & Henoc Muamba (who is always excited) last night than between he & Sanchez all year. Naylor should be a regular on that panel with his connections with CFL management & players. I find his comments interesting.

Yup that call on Holm was utter horse s**t. Embarassing.

Star #1: Zach Collaros. Silenced his critics last night here & in Bomberland with a great performance throwing the ball. He was in command all game except for a stretch in the third quarter where the Bombers had four 3 & outs. Over 300 yards passing & a clutch TD run to sew the victory up for the good guys. Star #2: Tony Ayres: Usually our linebackers seem to play the game in obscurity while getting the job done but Ayres job last night was to stick with Tre Ford wherever he went & he did that magnificently. He performance was noticed, He pressured Ford a number of times & sacked the Elks qb at least once & kept him to just 6 yards rushing. Star #3: Nic Demski with two tds receiving including the one where he stole the ball from the Edmonton DB covering him on the deep throw from Collaros on our second possesion in th first quarter which set the tone for our offense the rest of the night. Happy Honker: Wide Receiver Keric Wheatfall who could rack up a 1,500 yard season if he maintains his pace & stays healthy. He's our replacement for Kenny Lawler as a deep threat. Hard to believe Wheatfall's the same season who couldn't keep his regular receiving spot & was a healthy scratch.

Nye's a POS,

Lol. Bombers' social media team were ready:

I'm just so glad that Buck is gone. Let him stunt Nathan Rourke's growth as a qb. Cough, cough... Ever thought it was the QB Coach & OC whose now in BC?

1. Collaros over 80% passing, +300 yards, a rushing TD and 3 passing tds. 2. Demski 2 tds and a favoured receiver. 3. Wheatfall big play guy also. H.H. Vaughters causing headaches for edmos O plus a following the play downfield fumble recovery

Just rewatching the game and yeah the last replay they showed was the one from ground level...and while it was the best view, imo, it simply doesn't meet the definition of "conclusive". You don't actually see the ball touch the ground/any pebble fly. Obviously my opinion is worth squat.

he did. Streveler played well in game 1. i have to wonder if Coach Jackson is having any impact on 8 and 17 this early. so far the team is 3 wins ahead of last year at this time.

They'll fight hard losing close games Like tonight trying to make Ford an actual qb until they can't anymore. By then, it'll be too late & the Elks season will be lost. When that happens, the Elks will fall apart & another year will be wasted by a coaching staff trying to do domething that won't happen. Turning Ford into a pocket passer.

What about a LOTW where you get a strike removed if your guy gets 2 td’s or more. Asking for a friend 😬

I'd love to see collaros run like he did on the TD more. That kind of escape act used to be his bread and butter. Too often now he just plays tackling dummy when the pocket breaks down. couple of those deep shots were absolute dimes... and the refs were utterly embarrassing. WJ by rights should have had 2 more sacks except the LOLks offensive line was allowed to wrap an arm around his neck if he got too close to Ford. The PI that took away the Holm interception was the biggest joke of a call I have ever seen. Dude trips on his own feet and it takes away an INT. Gross.
